The Legacy of Charlie Kirk: A Voice Silenced, Not Forgotten

September 16, 2025

In this episode of Cut the Mic, Mike Hoeflich and Mike Sperrazza tackle the dangerous consequences of political rhetoric that demonizes conservatives. From being labeled “fascists” to “threats to democracy,” they argue that this divisive language fuels hostility and can incite violence. The Mikes reflect on the tragic assassination of Charlie Kirk, contrasting how the right responded with faith and unity while the left often resorts to anger and destruction. They also highlight the values Charlie stood for—faith, family, freedom, and open dialogue—and call out the hypocrisy of leaders like Kathy Hochul endorsing socialists who promote divisive, anti-American policies. This conversation is both a warning about the cost of political hate and a rallying cry to stand firm in conservative values.
