Charlie Kirk Shot While Speaking at Utah Valley University Event
Conservative commentator and Turning Point USA founder, Charlie Kirk, was shot during a public event at Utah Valley University on Tuesday. This has sent shockwaves across the political space in the United States.
Kirk was in Orem, Utah, as part of his “American Comeback Tour,” where he hosts live debates and discussions with students under the banner “Prove Me Wrong.” The hall was packed with thousands of attendees when, shortly after noon, a gunshot rang out. Witnesses say the 31-year-old was struck in the neck. And this incident caused chaos as the crowd screamed, ducked, and scrambled for safety.
According to officials, the shot appeared to have come from outside the venue, possibly from a nearby rooftop or building overlooking the campus. Security forces quickly rushed in, and law enforcement agencies including the FBI have since joined the investigation. Authorities said one person was briefly taken into custody but later released, as no direct evidence tied them to the shooting.
Kirk was rushed to the hospital, where his condition has been described as critical. Confusion spread online soon after, with some outlets prematurely reporting his death, while others stressed he was still alive but fighting for his life. As of now, no official medical confirmation has been given on whether he has passed away.
The incident has ignited a fierce conversation about political violence and the safety of public figures in today’s America. Leaders across party lines have condemned the shooting, describing it as an attack not just on one man, but on open dialogue and democratic engagement.

‘Government Prioritizes Money More’ — PDP Calls Out FG On New Tax Law
It has been shared that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is calling on the federal government to suspend the tax law set to take effect on January 1, 2026.
This was revealed in a statement released by Ini Ememobong, National Publicity Secretary of the PDP. He stated that this new law shows how Nigerians and the masses will be affected, arguing that the government is prioritizing finance over security and other pressing matters.
“Rather than address these issues comprehensively, the Presidency has consciously minimized them and instead insisted that the commencement date must stand, despite the discrepancies,” the party said, adding that this “clearly shows where the priority of the government lies between Nigerians and money.”
