Conservative influencer Charlie Kirk is deceased at the age of 31, and Danica Patrick is in sh0ck.
The right-wing talk show host and act::ivist was fatally sh0t during an event at Utah Valley University.
The 31-year-old media personality was happily posting about the event, which was part of “The American Comeback Tour,” in the hours before the sh00ting.
The event also hosted his “prove me wrong” table, where audience members debated the act::ivist in a public setting.
At bad luck would have it, Charlie Kirk, who has been mourned by the likes of Harrison Butker, was talking about gun violence in America when a bullet hit him in his neck.
Shortly after his d3ath was confirmed, Danica Patrick took to her Instagram story to react to the news.
Patrick re-shared a picture of Kirk kissing his wife while they held their children and posted the caption, “Heartbroken.”
Two people have since been in custody over the shooting, but both times, the men were released when it was revealed that they had nothing to do with the shooting.
Kirk’s d3ath comes as the nation has confronted a rash of political violence that has seen two assassination attempts against Donald Trump and the killing of a top Democrat in her house alongside her husband.

NBC dropped a huge announcement when they roped in the services of Michael Jordan. With the league returning to the network next season, NBC is said to have some big plans with the Chicago Bulls legend. While it is clear that he will be a part of the overall coverage, the media outlet has remained tight-lipped about the same. Till now, it was only known that Jordan will be acting as a ‘special contributor’ for NBC. But now, there might be some shocking details emerging.
Speaking on the topic, Alex Sherman of ‘CNBC’ provided some insight into the matter. He pointed out that the preliminary plans for Jordan are to appear in taped segments. This way, Jordan will be providing analysis on the games. These tapes are expected to be aired either at halftime or at the end of each game.
Michael Jordan’s role on NBA on NBC revealed:
“I’m told the plan is for Michael Jordan to appear in only taped segments during the season to provide analysis that will air during pregame or halftime shows. How that evolves over time is still to be determined.”
