  Let's dive in with Diva Mia.
• 0:31
  Hello, this is Diva Mia. So today I was going to make a tribute to 9-11 to remember
• 0:38
  all those that died, and we're still going to talk about that because of the events of yesterday.
• 0:42
  I think it's very important to reflect on what's going on in this country.
• 0:47
  I do apologize because I do try to keep politics out of this podcast as much
• 0:52
  as possible, but it has been weighing on me, so I'm going to share some feelings about it.
• 0:57
  If you don't know, you'd have been to Iraq, but Charlie Kirk was assassinated
• 1:02
  yesterday at an event in Utah where he was speaking.
• 1:05
  He was assassinated by a gunman that had a rifle from a far distance away and
• 1:11
  shot right through his jugular.
• 1:13
  He died either at the event or on his way to the hospital. It is unclear.
• 1:18
  In front of thousands of supporters. He was an amazing man.
• 1:23
  I personally believe that we need more men like Charlie Kirk.
• 1:26
  He was a type of hero to those on the right because of what he spoke,
• 1:32
  but he was a leader amongst all.
• 1:34
  To have someone killed just because of his words, when his words were just questions
• 1:40
  and dialogue with other people, to find out their points of view is shocking.
• 1:46
  Now, I think it's going to come out that this was some type of hit because there
• 1:51
  was only one shot, and it was a kill shot from a far distance away,
• 1:55
  and it was very well coordinated.
• 1:57
  An older man was arrested right after the shooting, but it was pretty obvious
• 2:01
  that he couldn't have done it.
• 2:03
  He had like these thick bifocal glasses on. They interviewed another person
• 2:07
  of interest, but they released both of them.
• 2:10
  So far, they have recovered a rifle in connection with Charlie Kirk's assassination,
• 2:15
  but they still don't have the shooter.
• 2:17
  I'm sure they will, but it's shocking to the nation.
• 2:20
  A day is a day, 9-11, to remember all that we've lost. And...
• 2:26
  The tragedy continues. I was going to do a video podcast today,
• 2:30
  but I didn't want to lose my composure.
• 2:32
  So, Charlie leaves behind a wife and two small children, and it is quite sad
• 2:40
  that there are people that are actually celebrating the death of this man.
• 2:46
  In order to celebrate someone's death, you have to have lost your humanity.
• 2:50
  You have to have lost all your morals and ethics and values of human life.
• 2:56
  I don't care what side of the spectrum you're on.
• 2:59
  If this was a political activist for the Democratic side or,
• 3:04
  God forbid, a Democratic politician, the feeling would be the same.
• 3:10
  This is not right. When someone's biggest crime is discussing his opinion in
• 3:16
  the United States of America and he gets gunned down, what country do we live in?
• 3:22
  He was one of the best men out there I've seen in a long time.
• 3:25
  In a world full of beta boys that just follow along, he was a leader.
• 3:30
  So today we cover this breaking news.
• 3:32
  It's hard to keep my composure. I don't know how all of the news broadcasters
• 3:36
  are. We need more men like Charlie Kirk.
• 3:40
  There's a shortage in this country right now. Yes, he brought out votes,
• 3:43
  and yes, he was religious, and yes, he leaned to the right side.
• 3:48
  But the reality was, is he was just a really good man.
• 3:52
  You could see it by the way he treated his family. My heart breaks for his poor young family.
• 3:57
  Free speech has to be fought for always. It has to be kept.
• 4:01
  And it's a shame that those that disagree with people's free speech try to silence it.
• 4:07
  Now, the left will say that he had inflammatory rhetoric, but the reality is,
• 4:11
  is he just had a difference of opinion. We're taught to respect other people's
• 4:14
  opinions. The right for some reason seems to, but the left wants to silence
• 4:19
  the difference of opinion, and it needs to stop.
• 4:21
  This is not a right or left ideology problem.
• 4:25
  This is a good versus evil problem.
• 4:28
  He was a good man. He had a difference of opinion on a few touchy subjects,
• 4:32
  but he was a good man, and evil took his life.
• 4:37
  And now people out there celebrate the loss of a patriot, Someone that cared
• 4:42
  about his family, that cared about Jesus, and that cared about this country.
• 4:46
  People celebrate his murder. There are people getting fired today for making public statements.
• 4:53
  Praising his demise, praising the fact that he got assassinated.
• 4:57
  A college kid actually said, well, somebody had to take him out.
• 5:00
  What is wrong with this generation? Are they that desensitized to good and evil
• 5:06
  that they think this is the right thing that needed to happen?
• 5:09
  Charlie Kirk was 31 years old. He was critically injured.
• 5:12
  They say he later died in the hospital, but the way the bullet went through,
• 5:16
  I don't think it was possible to save him, if you actually saw the video of him getting shot.
• 5:21
  There is some surveillance videos, I hope that leads to an arrest.
• 5:25
  Hopefully they catch the perpetrator or perpetrators soon.
• 5:28
  All the flags have been ordered to be at half-staff in support of Charlie Kirk.
• 5:32
  If you remember some other political assassinations from Martin Luther King
• 5:37
  to JFK to RFK to the attempts on Scalise to Ronald Reagan, it's nonsense.
• 5:45
  If you don't agree with someone, then state your opinion and have a debate.
• 5:50
  There was talk that he may be president one day. He very well could have been. He was a strong man.
• 5:55
  Right now, our country has a moment of reckoning.
• 5:58
  The extremism needs to end and the center needs to rise because the extremists
• 6:03
  have been running this country for way too long. This goes way beyond politics.
• 6:07
  The day before, a woman was sitting in a subway and got stabbed in the neck
• 6:12
  and murdered just because she was there.
• 6:14
  There's so much division in this country. There's so much stupidity.
• 6:17
  There's so much violence.
• 6:19
  Now the left is going to come out and say we need more gun control because that's what they always say.
• 6:23
  I can guarantee you, I bet the person that had the gun had a license for it.
• 6:26
  But the rhetoric is turning into violence because the media doesn't know when to quit.
• 6:32
  They take every story and they twist it in a way to make one side mad at the other.
• 6:37
  And they need to quit. Today, we also remember September 11th,
• 6:40
  the day the United States was attacked and we lost 3,000 souls on American land.
• 6:46
  I'm pretty sure I remember where I was in Chicago and for weeks after Sure.
• 6:51
  I was working in the Sears Tower when it was still the Sears Tower.
• 6:54
  We got calls almost daily saying that planes were on their way.
• 6:59
  And then in 2012, on 9-11, the Benghazi fiasco, where we had American Ambassador
• 7:05
  Chris Stevens killed September 11, 2012.
• 7:09
  And now 2025, just one day away from September 11, we have this assassination.
• 7:14
  I want America to heal, but there's forces within America that are evil,
• 7:19
  and they don't want healing to occur.
• 7:21
  For America to heal, we really have to come together. It needs to be led by the center.
• 7:27
  The center right, the center left, because the extremes are too far out.
• 7:30
  The extremes need to be rejected at this point, on both sides.
• 7:33
  People that are celebrating someone's death, do you guys know how dark and demented that is?
• 7:40
  I don't care who it is. Every death is a tragedy.
• 7:42
  His children will grow up without
• 7:44
  a father, and he would have been a good father. He was a good father.
• 7:47
  We should be coming together on our national tragedy.
• 7:51
  But yet all over social media, everyone is either supporting Charlie Kirk or mocking him.
• 7:58
  I had someone actually post on my page that I am the problem because I support
• 8:02
  a racist and there was nothing racist in Charlie Kirk.
• 8:06
  The rhetoric has gotten so tough that people just make up stories and make them
• 8:10
  into fact, even though they aren't.
• 8:12
  9-11, everything changed. We went from a naive little country thinking that
• 8:17
  nothing would happen on our shores to one that saw 3,000 people killed.
• 8:21
  Yes, we'd had smaller terrorist attacks prior to that, but this was significant.
• 8:26
  After 9-11, all the planes stopped. Everything slowed down. Everyone changed.
• 8:31
  You hugged your loved ones a little bit more. You treated your neighbors,
• 8:35
  no matter what political party, they were a little bit nicer.
• 8:38
  It was a day where we were all vulnerable, but we came together as a country.
• 8:42
  Yesterday echoed that, and I hope we can come together as a country.
• 8:46
  There were some political people throwing temper tantrums and behaving poorly,
• 8:50
  but for the most part, I'd say three quarters of the politicians on both sides
• 8:55
  of the aisle behaved well and respected Charlie Kirk and have been respectful.
• 9:00
  I do hope we can change as a civilization, because if we do not, we are doomed.
• 9:05
  We have technologies advancing that are advancing way past our human capabilities
• 9:11
  and are going to show people their own stupidity if we're not careful.
• 9:15
  The bigotry and the bias that people build into these technologies will be our downfall.
• 9:20
  Every time we have a challenge of this country, we tend to grow stronger together.
• 9:24
  I do hope we don't fracture apart. I hope that we can come together,
• 9:28
  that we can be together as a one United States.
• 9:31
  I do hope men and boys look at Charlie Kirk as a good example of how to take
• 9:37
  care of a family and how to lead because we need more men like him.
• 9:40
  And I do hope security gets it figured out so that people aren't left vulnerable
• 9:45
  like this in future situations.
• 9:47
  Charlie Kirk was interesting. He took it right to people. He said,
• 9:50
  get a mic and tell me what your concerns are. Let's have a discussion. Let's have a dialogue.
• 9:55
  I don't see other politicians doing that. They only do it with their supporters
• 10:00
  and they weed out anyone that's in disagreement.
• 10:02
  He wanted the people that had disagreed with him so he could learn from them.
• 10:06
  He didn't go to college, but he was well-read. He knew more about history and
• 10:10
  economics than people that come out of college with an economics degree.
• 10:13
  He knew more about history than
• 10:15
  and the relevance of history than people that study history and get a doctorate.
• 10:19
  He knew more about the Bible than most pastors.
• 10:23
  He was a very intelligent, amazing debater that was clear and concise with his opinion.
• 10:29
  The whole country mourns today, but we need to stop the political violence and
• 10:33
  the political rhetoric. It has to stop now.
• 10:35
  Donald Trump could have been murdered, too. He could have been assassinated not too long ago.
• 10:40
  Literally, the left celebrated that, too. They were civil for two or three days.
• 10:45
  As soon as he got out of the hospital, they were back. Being as nasty as before needs to stop.
• 10:50
  Just because people disagree with you doesn't mean they're wrong.
• 10:53
  They just have a different point of view. Maybe people need to stop talking
• 10:56
  so much and do more of what Charlie Cook did, and he listened.
• 11:00
  He listened a lot. He'd even put his microphone down when people were asking
• 11:03
  questions so he could listen thoroughly.
• 11:05
  So why don't we all take a chapter out of Charlie Cook's book and listen to
• 11:09
  our neighbors, love our neighbors, and do unto others as you would have done to you. This is Diva Mia.
• 11:15
  Take care of yourself today and your family.
