On the one-year anniversary of Charlie Kirk’s death, people are gathering on the Utah Valley University campus, where the conservative activist was shot and killed in front of thousands of people one year ago today.

Giovanna Raccosta drove from Las Vegas, Nevada, to be at the memorial. She told me she was up late last night finishing a painting of Kirk with his Savior.

Raccosta credits Kirk’s work and influence with helping bring her family — including her children — back to church.

Raccosta told me she was overwhelmed with standing in the spot where Charlie Kirk spent his final moments.

I spoke with her about why she felt it was important to make the trip to Utah and be on the UVU campus today.

A Camden Alabama police officer has been killed in an off-duty motorcycle crash.

Cpl. Michael Andrews was killed Tuesday night.

His nickname was “Bone,” and the department says he was more than a police officer — he was a friend, a brother and a valued member of their police family.

Andrews was 49 years old, and had been on the force for about five to six years.

Rest Easy Brother. Prayers for his family of blue and blood.🙏🏻

Job well done by the Dallas Police Department.🔥

Antifa gets arrested in Dallas, Texas during their Anti-Trump march earlier this afternoon.

JUST IN: A freeway standoff involving SWAT teams and multiple damaged vehicles caused major traffic delays on Interstate 580 in San Leandro California before authorities took a driver into custody.

"If you could boil down why Republicans need to show up in the midterms, one sentence to sum it up?"

POTUS: "Communism — they are trying to turn this country around and destroy our country."

POTUS on Trump Dividends: "We're taking in $21 trillion. No country has ever taken in anywhere near that. It's four, five times higher than the next, and it's all because of that beautiful word that you and I love more than most others — tariffs."

POTUS on Democrats: "They're Radical Left. They are communists... But what they really have is bad policy."

POTUS: "I don't believe in the word 'regret.'"

Trump: “Vote like I’m on the ballot” “Congress has pretty much nothing to run on. That’s why Trump is doing this, that’s why we have to have this convention.”

Twenty-five years later, the sacrifice of 9/11’s first responders is still being felt.

Thousands of firefighters, police officers, EMS personnel, workers, and residents were exposed to toxic air at Ground Zero. Many survived that day, only to face serious health consequences years later.

For the men and women who ran toward the danger, September 11 didn’t end when the towers fell. The impact followed them home.

We remember those who were lost that day. We also remember those who continued to fight long after.

9/11 is part of our history, but for many first responders and their families, it is still a reality.

Cops nationwide are getting in trouble for misusing Flock cameras. But now MPD is in trouble (with the union) for using Flock data to investigate one of its own officers.

And has hell frozen over? DC Police Union is asking for more Council oversight.

PLOT TWIST OF THE CENTURY. 😳⚖️ ​

A judge ended up behind bars inside his own courtroom after the defendant pulled the ultimate UNO reverse card. The defendant snitched on the judge’s own dirty laundry mid-trial just to cut a deal and walk free. ​You literally cannot make this stuff up. ​I’m Just Saying —

A life-size Charlie Kirk statue was unveiled in the heart of NYC, while TPUSA members say the Mamdani administration canceled their permit for a vigil. "Rob Schmitt Tonight" producer Brent asked locals as well as the statue's creator himself for their thoughts.

Karoline Leavitt  honors Charlie Kirk with a powerful message about the legacy he left behind: Put prayer into action ahead of the midterms.

"As Americans, we are called to pair our prayer with action. Nobody did this better than our dear friend Charlie Kirk."

"On November the 3rd, pair your prayer with action and get out and vote."

39-year-old Jason Ellis was murdered in Bardstown, Kentucky, on May 25, 2013, after finishing his shift with the Bardstown Police Department and beginning his drive home to Bloomfield. At approximately 2:30 a.m., Jason encountered tree branches blocking the exit ramp at Exit 34 of the Bluegrass Parkway. He activated his patrol vehicle's emergency lights, positioned the vehicle to block the ramp, and got out to clear the roadway. As he attempted to remove the branches, he was ambushed by someone firing a 12-gauge shotgun from an elevated area nearby.

Jason was struck multiple times, including in areas not protected by his ballistic vest, and died at the scene. His service weapon remained in its holster. A passing motorist discovered him shortly afterward and summoned assistance.

Investigators determined that the branches had been deliberately placed across the roadway and that the person responsible for the shooting had fired from a hill overlooking the exit. Authorities eventually concluded that Jason was likely the intended target and described the attack as methodical and planned. The branches were reportedly from a tree that was not indigenous to the area, further supporting the theory that they had been brought there to create the ambush.

Jason had joined the Bardstown Police Department in 2006 and quickly distinguished himself through his work. He received Governor's Awards for Impaired Driving Enforcement in 2007 and 2008 and was named Officer of the Year in 2008. The following year, he became the department's only canine officer, partnering with his German shepherd, Figo.

Before entering law enforcement, Jason pursued a career in baseball. He played catcher at Cumberland College, where he established numerous career records, and was later signed by the Cincinnati Reds organization. He played minor league baseball in Sarasota, Florida, and Billings, Montana, before leaving professional baseball in 2005 because he wanted to make a difference in his community.

Jason was also deeply involved with young people outside his police duties and coached youth baseball. He was remembered not only as a dedicated officer but as a husband, father, son, brother, uncle, and friend who had devoted his life to serving others. His death deeply affected Bardstown, and hundreds of community members and law enforcement officers attended his funeral procession. His canine partner, Figo, was present at his final service and later spent his retirement with Jason's family.

Jason was buried at Highview Cemetery in Chaplin, Kentucky. After Figo died in 2017, his remains were buried near Jason's grave.

The investigation into Jason's murder remains open. A substantial reward has been offered over the years for information leading to the identification, arrest, and conviction of those responsible. Despite extensive investigative efforts and additional attention from retired Kentucky State Police investigators, no arrests have been made.

The FBI has offered a reward of up to $50,000 for information leading to the identification, arrest, and conviction of the person or persons responsible for Jason's murder.

If you have any information about this case, please contact the FBI at 1-800-225-5324, or the Kentucky State Police at (502) 782-1800 or submit a tip at tips.fbi. gov.

One year later, we remember Charlie Kirk and the impact he made on millions of Americans. His passion for America, faith, freedom, and the next generation defined his life’s work. We honor his legacy, remember his family, and reflect on a life that left a lasting mark 🇺🇸
