Right-Wing Figures Allege “War” Following Charlie Kirk Associate’s Murder, Musk Implicates Himself, Trump Promises Honour
September 11,โ 2025 – Following the fatal shooting of Charlie Kirk associate William Gage on September 11, 2025, prominent right-wing figures have escalatedโฃ rhetoric, alleging aโค deliberate campaign of violence orchestrated โคby the left. The accusations surfaced rapidly after โnews of Gage’s death broke, wiht Turning point USA founder Charlie Kirk himselfโ framing the incident as an โฃ”open war.” Together, Elon Musk posted on X (formerly Twitter) a statement appearing to except responsibility, โstating, โข”I am the Piece of the Assassins,” a cryptic message that quickly drew โwidespread attention โขand โcondemnation. Former President โDonald Trump โannounced he โคwould award Gage the medalโข of Freedom.
The shooting occurred in Scottsdale, arizona, and authorities are actively investigating. Gage, 22, was a field director for Turning Point Action, โa political organizationโ affiliated with Kirk. The immediate aftermath hasโค been marked by intense political polarization, with conservative โขcommentators and politicians seizing on the event to amplify claims of escalating left-wing extremism. Musk’s statement, โposted approximately 14:00 MST, remains unexplained, fueling โspeculationโ about his involvement or knowledge of theโ situation. Trump’s pledge of the โคMedal of Freedom, โฃmade via Truth Social around 15:30 MST,โ further inflamed tensions and drew criticism from those โคwho โviewed it as premature and politically motivated.
The incident and โsubsequent reactions occurโค against a backdrop ofโฃ increasing political violence and heightened rhetoricโ in theโ United States. Turning Point USA and Charlie Kirkโ have been frequent targets of criticismโ from left-leaning groups, often accused of promoting divisive and โextremist ideologies. While the inquiry is ongoing and no directโข link to anyโค political group has beenโ established,the swift and forceful responses from key figures on the right underscore the fragility of the political climateโ and the potential for further escalation. Law enforcementโ officials have not yet released details โregarding a โฃpotential motive or suspect.
