Miracle, ‘man of steel,’ or mystery? Surgeon’s shocking words about Charlie Kirk’s wound



Following Charlie Kirk's assassination, Turning Point USA spokesman and executive producer of the “Charlie Kirk Show" Andrew Kolvet revealed new details about the shooting that even doctors are calling a miracle.

According to Kolvet, the surgeon who operated on Kirk claimed that the high-velocity bullet was powerful enough to kill multiple large animals — and “should have gone through” his body.

But for some reason, Kirk’s body was able to stop it.

“I want to address some of the discussion about the lack of an exit wound with Charlie,” Kolvet wrote in a post on X.


“The fact that there wasn’t an exit wound is probably another miracle, and I want people to know,” Kolvet continued, explaining that he had spoken with the surgeon who worked on Charlie in the hospital.

“He said the bullet ‘absolutely should have gone through, which is very very normal for a high powered, high velocity round. I’ve seen wounds from this caliber many times and they always just go through everything. This would have taken a moose or two down, an elk, etc,’” he recalled.

“But it didn’t go through. Charlie’s body stopped it,” he added.

When he mentioned to the doctor that there were “dozens of staff, students, and special guests standing directly behind Charlie” when he was shot, the doctor reportedly replied, “It was an absolute miracle that someone else didn’t get killed.”

“His bone was so healthy and the density was so so impressive that he's like the man of steel,” Kolvet recalls the doctor saying.

While BlazeTV host Allie Beth Stuckey notes that “some people aren’t buying that,” she says that she doesn’t have a reason not to.

“Of course I believe it’s possible for God to do anything. And he’s saying it’s miraculous. And miraculous means that it goes beyond reason or even the laws of physics,” she says. “And so I have no reason to believe that this is untrue.”

The Bible does support the death penalty. Here's why.



Pope Leo’s recent remarks linking abortion and the death penalty have reignited the age-old debate over whether someone can truly be “pro-life” while supporting capital punishment — but BlazeTV host Allie Beth Stuckey says the answer is an unequivocal yes.

“When he’s talking about the death penalty not being pro-life, then what he is essentially saying is that God is not pro-life because God is the one that commands the death penalty,” Stuckey says.

“God says in Genesis 9, ‘Whoever sheds the blood of man by man shall his blood be shed. For God made man in his own image,’” she explains.

“The answer to, ‘Does it still apply today? Because is it still true today?’ is yes,” Stuckey says. “God still makes us in his image. We are still made in God’s image. So we read right there that the reason for the death penalty for murder is because of the value of human beings, and the value of human beings as image-bearers of God has not changed.”


“Then that means that that is still a good punishment for murder. That doesn’t mean that it has to always be the punishment for murder,” she continues.

Throughout scripture, Stuckey points out that “God gives mercy to certain people,” but it doesn’t “negate the command.”

“God actually gives the death penalty for a variety of crimes in ancient Israel. But we as Christians don’t have to abide by all of the ceremonial and cleansing laws of ancient Israel because Jesus has become our cleansing. He has become our sacrifice,” she explains.

And it’s not just in Genesis 9 where this same principle is reflected, but also in the New Testament.

“In Romans 13, we read that the government is instituted by God to bear the sword against the evildoer. That’s not just an analogy. That is a symbol of execution. That is a God-ordained government directive to restrain evil."

While some make the argument that one of the Ten Commandments is “thou shall not kill,” Stuckey explains that it’s actually “thou shall not murder.”

“Murder and killing aren’t the same thing. If you are killing someone in self-defense, that’s not murder. If it is a just war and you are killing someone, that is not murder,” she says.

“So I am actually pro-life for the same reason that I am pro-death-penalty, because I care about innocent life. Because human beings are so important and so valuable that the crime of killing one of us is so hefty that the only commensurate punishment for it is execution,” she adds.

JD Vance outduels the mainstream media yet again



In a recent interview on ABC’s “This Week,” a discussion regarding Trump’s border czar Tom Homan turned ugly when host George Stephanopoulos pulled the plug rather than let Vice President JD Vance continue speaking.

The pair were discussing a bizarre allegation that Homan was caught on tape taking $50,000 from undercover FBI agents “who were trying to entrap him because they were trying to get him on taking a bribe to give certain people government contracts.”

“It’s convoluted; it’s weird,” BlazeTV host Liz Wheeler says, before playing the clip of Vance and Stephanopoulos.

“I don’t know what tape you’re referring to, George. I saw media reports that Tom Homan accepted a bribe. There’s no evidence of that. And here’s, George, why fewer and fewer people watch your program and why you’re losing credibility,” Vance said.


“Because you’re talking for now five minutes with the vice president of the United States about this story regarding Tom Homan, a story that I’ve read about, but I don’t even know the video that you’re talking about,” he continued.

“You are focused on a bogus story. You’re insinuating criminal wrongdoing against a guy who has done nothing wrong instead of focusing on the fact that our country is struggling because our government’s shut down,” he added.

Vance went on to ask Stephanopoulos to “talk about the real issues” and explained that it would be much more beneficial for the American people instead of listening to the host go down “some weird left-wing rabbit hole where the facts clearly show that Tom Homan didn’t engage in any criminal wrongdoing.”

“It’s not a weird left-wing rabbit hole. I didn’t insinuate anything,” he said, before shutting down the interview.

“Thank you for your time this morning,” he said, while Vance continued to speak.

“Let me just tell you, as someone who interviews high-profile people on this show from time to time, if it is even so much as a lower-level member of Congress, you do not interrupt them,” Wheeler comments, shocked.

“Do you think George Stephanopoulos would have cut away from Kamala Harris while she was talking and not just speak over the top of her, but take her off the screen and turn it to a commercial break?” she asks, adding, “Can you even imagine?”

Why Zohran Mamdani will be ‘one of the most catastrophic mayors ever’



As mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani continues to lead the New York City mayoral race and Election Day for the next mayor looms closer, so does the city’s impending doom, according to BlazeTV host Sara Gonzales.

“He could be one of the most catastrophic mayors to ever, ever be in New York City,” BlazeTV host Sara Gonzales says on “Sara Gonzales Unfiltered.”

And while many Americans will drown out the goings-on in faraway places like New York City, Gonzales warns that just because you may not be potentially living under Mamdani’s rule, you will still be affected by it.

“The financial capital of the entire world — it actually affects all of us,” Gonzales says.


In a recent interview on Fox News, Mamdani was asked by Martha MacCallum if he had any intention of changing his mind on bail reform after hearing the story of an elderly man beaten to death on the subway by a 25-year-old who was out on bail when he allegedly killed him.

“Does that make you want to change your mind or think twice about reversing that?” MacCallum asked.

“What it makes me think about is the necessity of providing public safety in our New York City subway system and across the five boroughs. And also, how do we end the revolving door? Because when you look further into the case … what we find is so often the only mental health system that we have that’s functioning in this city is Rikers Island,” Mamdani said.

“It’s a revolving door because you keep letting them out,” Gonzales comments. “There’s a solution. You just keep them in prison. We keep the dangerous criminals away from society. It’s very, very simple, Zohran.”

And in a podcast interview, Mamdani was asked whether or not prisons are “obsolete.”

“I mean, what purpose do they serve?” Mamdani asked. “I think we have to ask ourselves that, which is that, you know, I think a lot of people who defend the carceral state, they defend the idea of it and the way it makes them feel.”

“I will be the first to admit it does make me feel much safer to have criminals locked up … and I will never be bashful about sharing that, ever,” Gonzales says.

“What purpose does it serve? Oh, I don’t know. It keeps law-abiding citizens safe. It’s really that easy,” she adds.

Ketanji Brown Jackson exposes her own worldview, compares black people to disabled people



Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson is under fire after invoking the Americans with Disabilities Act during oral arguments in defense of ensuring black representation in Congress — however, many are now accusing her of comparing black people to the disabled.

"The fact that remedial action, absent discriminatory intent, is really not a new idea in the civil rights laws. And my kind of paradigmatic example of this is something like the ADA.”

"Congress passed the Americans with Disabilities Act against the backdrop of a world that was generally not accessible to people with disabilities. And so it was discriminatory, in effect, because these folks were not able to access these buildings — and it didn't matter whether the person who built the building, or the person who owned the building, intended for them to be exclusionary. That's irrelevant," she continued.

"Congress said the facilities have to be made equally open to people with disabilities, if readily possible. I guess I don't understand why that's not what's happening here."


“The idea in Section 2 is that we are responding to current-day manifestations of past and present decisions that disadvantage minorities and make it so that they don’t have equal access to the voting system, right?” she asked, adding, “They’re disabled.”

BlazeTV host Jason Whitlock admits that it’s “a tricky conversation” and a “tricky subject.”

“If you go back in history, there was legitimate racial discrimination that harmed black people politically. There are a number of us that think that that time has passed, that that sort of discrimination has passed, and there is no … racial impediment to seeking higher office in Congress, in the House, Senate, whatever,” Whitlock says on “Jason Whitlock Harmony.”

“So in her defense of gerrymandering, she’s saying that we have faced so much discrimination that we’re disabled,” he adds.

“She’s not on solid ground,” BlazeTV contributor Virgil Walker says. “She has a false view of mankind. She has a false view of blacks in particular, mankind in general. What she’s exposing in her response is actually her worldview. Her idea that blacks are handicapped, blacks are disabled, blacks are beholden unto white power structures and submitted to that.”

“She has an unbiblical anthropology. All that means is an unbiblical view of who we are, who man is, an unbiblical view that we are not image-bearers of God, that you can assess who we are on the basis of the level of melanin in our skin and the historic narrative that has been permeated throughout American culture and society,” he adds.

‘The View’ co-hosts try to humiliate Cheryl Hines over vaccines and RFK Jr.— and fail miserably



If the show “The View” isn’t paid for by advertising from pharmaceutical companies, you’d never know, because they defend vaccines with a tenacity that can only be rivaled by the manufacturers themselves.

And in a recent interview with Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy’s wife, Cheryl Hines, the panel could not have fought harder in favor of those pharmaceutical companies — never once grazing the truth despite minutes of speaking over Hines.

“You know, Cheryl, it’s not fair to really put you on the spot about him because you’re his wife. I know that. But when you say that they are pro-vaccine, it seems as though Bobby and Trump are casting doubt on the efficacy of the vaccine, which makes Americans very nervous,” co-host Joy Behar said.

“So, that’s the problem that we’re having,” she added.


“It’s interesting because I don’t know if you saw ‘60 Minutes’ just did a piece about the vaccine injury compensation program. So, people that have had vaccine injuries can be compensated if they can prove it. And they have paid out $5.4 billion for vaccine injuries,” Hines replied.

“So, my question is, can we do better?” she asked.

“Is it all vaccines or just the COVID vaccine?” Whoopi Goldberg interjected, to which Hines replied, “It’s all vaccines.”

“So, the question is — yes to vaccines. Yes, they are important, and they are an important part of our health care. Can we do better? Can we make them safer? Can we listen to parents who say, ‘My child got the vaccine and changed and stopped hitting markers, stopped developing the way they were developing.’ Can we listen to people when they say that instead of saying, ‘You’re crazy?’” Hines continued.

But that wasn’t all the ladies of ‘The View’ went after Hines for.

Sunny Hostin called RFK the “least qualified Department of Health and Human Services head that we’ve had in history,” lamenting that this is “very dangerous.”

Having previously pointed out that Obama’s head of HHS was an economist, Hines responded, “Why is he less qualified than an economist?”

“He has spent his career studying toxins, studying people’s health, fighting for one guy who was using Roundup for his job,” Hines continued.

“He has also spread a lot of misinformation, a lot of chaos, a lot of confusion. And I think it’s just a very dangerous thing,” Hostin continued, adding, “and I say it with the utmost respect.”

BlazeTV host Sara Gonzales isn’t shocked by what she’s hearing from the women on ‘The View,’ but she is disgusted.

“‘The utmost respect,’” she mocks. “Like, it’s just so tacky. ‘With all due respect, I actually think your husband is a terrible ... person.’ Like, you can’t just say stuff like that. And it’s just so laughable.”

Gonzales points out that Joe Biden’s HHS secretary was Xavier Becerra, who had zero medical background.

“He was also a former politician and a lawyer. And the closest thing that he came to anything health-related was bringing felony charges against the Center for Medical Progress activists who exposed Planned Parenthood for allegedly selling fetal tissue,” Gonzales explains.

Not only that, but Biden’s assistant secretary for health was “Rachel” Levine — a transgender woman.

“That just tells you all you need to know about all of these recent Health and Human Services secretaries who haven’t given a s**t that we have become more sick,” Gonzales says, “We have become sicker than ever before.”

Politico tries to cancel Young Republicans over out-of-context private jokes



The left has launched a cancellation campaign against members of the Young Republican National Federation after Politico released an article exposing leaked out-of-context messages between members.

BlazeTV host Sara Gonzales points out that the left is not angry about the violent text messages sent by Virginia attorney general candidate Jay Jones, in which he called for the murder of innocent children.

“No, Democrats are actually pissed about leaked Republican messages where the people were clearly making jokes, which is so crazy 'cause I thought liberals were supposed to love it when people made edgy jokes,” Gonzales says.

“Let’s see those liberals protesting in the streets now for free speech,” she adds.


The group chat messages consisted of what Gonzales considers to be the participants simply “goofing off” and “joking in private where they never thought that anyone publicly would see their messages.”

“Would I choose to joke about these things? No, probably not. But it’s a far cry from the actual serious rhetoric that the Democrats engage in literally every day. And they’re not joking,” Gonzales says.

“Now, you also have the Young Republicans organization, who are now — it’s this big production where ‘we have to cancel everyone’s lives because they were joking in private group chats and never thought that these chats would see that light of day,’” she continues.

“And I have to ask everyone in the organization that is calling on all of these people to resign and trying to get them fired from their jobs and all of these things. I just have to ask: What do your group text messages look like? What do your private text messages look like? What do your private DMs look like?” she asks.

“If I just took your phone right now and just was able to just freely scroll through it and go back as many years as I wanted to, I wouldn’t find anything that you’ve said that might be spicy or inappropriate or off-color or anything? It’s just totally PC? I don’t buy it,” Gonzales continues.

“There is no one alive who doesn’t have something in their text messages that they would be embarrassed if it went public because that’s just how people are,” she adds.

And in the case of these Young Republicans, the jokes were completely taken out of context in the first place.

“The headline example, right there, ‘I love Hitler.’ Right there in the headline. Oh, my gosh. Okay. Well, if you keep reading, they’re talking about a meeting with Michigan’s Young Republicans to score more votes,” Gonzales explains.

“And in the message, he said, ‘My delegates I bring will vote for the most right-wing person.’ And then he was like, ‘Great. I love Hitler.’ It was a joke. It was a joke that was completely taken out of context,” she continues.

“I’m not going to condemn it. I honestly don’t care. ... Nobody should care about a group chat with dudes joking around,” she adds.

The $1 billion Chinese text scam flooding Americans’ phones



A recent Wall Street Journal article has exposed the real culprit behind the incessant threatening text messages Americans all over the country have been receiving as of late — which include threats over late toll payments, U.S. postal service fees, and unpaid traffic violations.

According to the Wall Street Journal, these texts are always “poised to get unsuspecting victims to fork over their credit card details,” and those behind it “take advantage of this information to buy iPhones, gift cards, clothing, and cosmetics.”

And behind the messages are criminal organizations operating out of China — who have made more than $1 billion over the past three years off the scam.

“Wow,” BlazeTV host Liz Wheeler comments, shocked. “I think we can all speak to this personally. I know, for me at least, I’m receiving just dozens and dozens of these things — way more than I used to.”


These criminal gangs use “SIM farms” — which are rooms jammed with boxes of networking devices — to flood people with text messages.

“You know, you neglected to pay a toll, and now you better watch out or your credit score is going to get hacked, and you’re going to be thrown in jail, and your car is going to be taken away unless you click this really shady-looking URL and give us your credit card number, and then we’re going to steal from you,” Wheeler says.

At these SIM farms — which have been found in shared offices, crack houses, and auto repair shops — the servers are “stuffed with little white cards,” the Wall Street Journal writes, “that mobile customers put in their new phones to begin making calls or sending texts.”

And Wheeler explains that it’s the Chinese communists behind it.

“The Chinese communists are stealing from us to the tune of $1 billion, just by that particular text message scam alone over the course of the past three years — $1 billion. And this, I am sad to say, is just another example of a crime committed against us by the crafty Chinese communists,” she says.

“They are not merely adversarial trading partners in a globalist economy. The Chinese Communists actively, desperately want to depose the United States and destroy us, and they’re doing so by disrupting our society socially and culturally,” Wheeler continues.

“They are attempting to destroy our economy. They are sowing civil unrest,” she says. “For goodness sake, they created a virus that spiraled us into tyranny.”

Jubilee reaction: How to debate 20 liberal Christians



BlazeTV host Allie Beth Stuckey has been praised across the aisle for the debating prowess she displayed during her Jubilee debate with 20 progressive Christians — and she has some seriously helpful tips for those who might find themselves in similar disagreements.

“Here is my tip when you’re debating. Number one, connection without compromise. Connecting to them in a human and genuine way without conceding to their argument,” Stuckey says.

“Number two, define your terms,” she says, explaining that in order to have a debate on a subject, you have to agree on the building blocks of the debate.

In a clip from the debate, Stuckey defines her terms before engaging with a liberal on abortion, saying, “So, abortion, the intentional killing of a human being in the womb. Can we agree on that?”


When the liberal said he didn’t believe abortion is murder, Stuckey brought it back to “killing.”

“I believe that it is killing life in the womb,” the liberal agreed.

“Killing what species of life?” she asked.

“A human,” he answered.

“So, we can agree that abortion is the intentional killing of a human inside the womb,” she says.

“Evil, bad, wrong, simple,” she says. “So, I believe that the intentional killing of an innocent human being is evil. Do you agree?”

“No,” he answered.

“They’re not in charge. You can be in charge, and you can do that in a gracious way and an assertive way. They are not setting the rules; you are setting the rules. So, define terms. That is so important from the very beginning,” she says, reflecting on the clip.

And one of her most important tips is that “you are not trying to win every argument in every conversation.”

“You are trying to advance the ball down the field a little bit more. You are trying to plant a seed. Remember, this is so important for every sphere of life. You are not the main character. You’re not the main character in your own life. You’re not the main character in that person’s life,” Stuckey says.

“You are one of maybe 10,000 people that the Lord is going to use in a person’s life to complete their testimony. You are a small part. You are one vessel. You have one role to play,” she continues.

“You plant the seed; you love them,” she adds.
