In a strange moment, US VP hosts Charlie Kirk’s podcast and swears revenge

JD Vance strangely sat in Charlie Kirk's chair to host the late influencer's podcast.

Vice President JD Vance took the reins of a special edition of The Charlie Kirk Show, in tribute to "his friend" murdered a few days earlier at an event on a Utah college campus.

In the podcast, JD Vance begins by promising to get to the bottom of Kirk's death, which he attributes to an incredibly destructive movement of left-wing extremism.

Vance then goes on to urge his supporters, in the name of "civility", to report to employers all those who celebrated Kirk's assassination, so they can be fired.

The vice president calls on everyone to take action: if anyone sees someone celebrating Charlie's murder, they should "call their employer."

"We don't believe in political violence, but we do believe in civility, and there's no civility in celebrating a political assassination."

On this special edition of the Charlie Kirk podcast, JD Vance had several guests, including Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy Jr., White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, and Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller.

The latter promises, "In Charlie's name", to "identify, disrupt, dismantle and destroy these networks", referring to two organizations cited by JD Vance: the Open Society Foundations and the Ford Foundation, which he accuses of having financially supported an article published in The Nation magazine, titled "Charlie Kirk’s Legacy Deserves No Mourning".

Both foundations categorically denied financially supporting The Nation. Miller goes on to guarantee that "every resource we have at the Department of Justice, Homeland Security and throughout this government" will be mobilized for this offensive.

In the wake of Charlie Kirk's assassination, Donald Trump and his advisors are preparing an offensive against radical left-wing groups.

Trump most recently announced, according to CNN, that he was considering designating Antifa a domestic terrorist organization, saying he had asked U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi to look into bringing RICO charges: "I asked Pam to look at this in RICO terms, bringing RICO cases."
