Critics of Charlie Kirk's passing should be held accountable, according to Vance, as he intensifies his criticism towards the left
Vice President JD Vance Calls for Calm and Action on Political Violence
Vice President JD Vance has taken a firm stance on political discourse and violence following the assassination of Charlie Kirk, a prominent conservative figure. In a series of statements, Vance has criticized the left, called for investigations into left-leaning organizations, and expressed support for targeting networks that fund left-wing political violence.
In the aftermath of Kirk's death, Vance has urged those on the left to take a hard look inward and lower the temperature in political discourse. He believes that those who celebrate Kirk's death should not be protected from professional consequences and has threatened that universities may face a loss of funding if professors celebrate Kirk's death.
Vance, who shared that he was the one to inform President Donald Trump about Kirk's passing, has also expressed his support for televising the trial of Tyler Robinson, the suspect in Kirk's shooting. He credited Kirk for his support during his political career, stating that he would not be the Vice President of the United States without Kirk's help.
President Trump, who was reportedly upset upon hearing the news of Kirk's death, has announced his intention to designate Antifa as a terrorist organization. However, the Trump administration has not yet designated Antifa as such, despite earlier announcements.
In addition to targeting organizations that fund left-wing political violence, the White House is also working to go after radicalization networks for both left-wing and right-wing violence. The Attorney General has not yet indicated any specific plans to 'target' those who use hate speech, contrary to earlier reports. Attorney General Pam Bondi has only indicated that the government will 'target' those who use hate speech.
Investigations against left-leaning organizations allegedly inciting violence have been announced, but specific organizations were not named in the search results. However, Turning Point USA, a right-wing youth organization co-founded by Kirk, was mentioned as a counterexample rather than a target of investigation.
Vance has discussed his conversations within the administration on targeting organizations that fund left-wing political violence. The administration plans to treat organizations that encourage or fund left-wing violence like terrorist organizations. The White House is also working to go after funding networks for left-wing violence.
