About this sermon
US lawmakers are stunned, grieving, and angry after Charlie Kirk’s assassination, with both parties acknowledging the country’s dangerous political climate. Leaders on both sides condemn the rise in hateful rhetoric and political violence, but continue to trade blame over its cause. Lawmakers like Sen. Schiff call for an end to the violence, while others, including Rep. Ocasio-Cortez, push for stricter gun laws. Tensions flared last night during a disrupted moment of silence for Kirk, exposing deep divisions in Congress. Now, concerns for personal safety are prompting some members to cancel public events, as leaders consider new security measures for lawmakers.
