'Find each and every one': Trump pledges crackdown on 'radical left political violence'
In a video address to the nation posted to his Truth Social account, President Donald Trump pledged a massive crackdown on "radical left political violence" in the wake of the killing of far-right activist Charlie Kirk.
Even though the gunman responsible for Kirk's death on a Utah college campus remains at large and the motive remains unknown, Trump insisted that the "radical left" was behind the shooting.

"My administration will find each and every one of those who contributed to this atrocity and to other political violence, including the organizations that fund it and support it, as well as those who go after our judges, law enforcement officials and everyone else who brings order to our country," said Trump, who has so far not addressed the pattern of MAGA activists threatening federal judges".
"Radical left political violence has hurt too many innocent people and taken too many lives," he added.

No. We just live in a very polarizing country where access to firearms is really easy - especially in a state like Utah.

It certainly got Epstein out off the front page. The media acting as if it's the Challenger Disaster is concerning.
