Jack Posobiec Plants the Flag: “My Friend’s in a Box — This Is War”
America will soon bury Charlie Kirk. Jack Posobiec stepped into the fire. The left wants you quiet — we’re here to say it out loud.
Good Morning, it’s Monday, September 15th, 2025.
We are waking up in a country where political assassinations are no longer whispers on the fringe — they are reality. Charlie Kirk was murdered, and instead of mourning a patriot, the left cheers, the press shrugs, and schools are literally showing his death video to kids like it’s entertainment. That’s the America we’re living in.
But here’s the flip side: the movement didn’t die with Charlie. Jack Posobiec walked straight into CNN’s lion’s den and told the truth — this is asymmetric warfare, and only one side is pulling triggers. He sat in Charlie’s empty podcast chair and said the lights would stay on. That’s grit. That’s leadership.
Meanwhile, Democrats are eating themselves alive. John Fetterman is calling his own party delusional for branding Trump an “autocrat.” Speaker Mike Johnson is drawing a hard line on Russia but deferring to Trump, reminding Congress who leads on foreign policy. And in the shadows, the DEA brags about a 7,500-kilo cartel bust while fentanyl still pours across Biden’s border legacy.
This is the fight. It’s ugly, it’s raw, and it’s ours to win.
Think mass surveillance is a future threat?
It’s not. This unredacted report reveals how foreign allies and private firms are already running the playbook — and why most Americans never realize it’s happening until it’s too late.
Jack Posobiec on Who Fills Kirk’s Shoes
Turning grief into grit — Posobiec says the lights must stay on.
Charlie Kirk’s death wasn’t random. It was a political assassination — and Jack Posobiec made that crystal clear in his CNN interview. When asked if America is “at war,” Posobiec didn’t hide behind safe answers.
“My friend’s in a box right now. And it wasn’t an accident.”
“We’re clearly facing asymmetric civil warfare.”
“The only side that is shooting people is the left.”
This wasn’t a pundit playing word games. This was a man who just buried a friend — and still stepped up to keep the mission alive.
Why It Matters:
The left is already trying to memory-hole Kirk’s murder as a “one-off” tragedy. Posobiec blew that narrative apart.
TPUSA has been the right’s campus beachhead. With Kirk gone, the survival of that movement depends on leadership with backbone.
Posobiec’s refusal to sugarcoat — on CNN of all places — signals a shift: conservatives aren’t going to fight on the left’s terms anymore.
The Real Story:
The establishment would love to pacify the right into “lowering the temperature.” But let’s be real — only one side is pulling triggers. The summer of 2020 saw billions in looting over George Floyd. Charlie Kirk gets assassinated, and the right responds with prayer vigils, podcasts, and resolve. The contrast is blinding.
Posobiec reminded CNN’s Meena Duerson: “We have to tamp down those who celebrate violence.” But he didn’t backtrack. He didn’t join the “both sides” chorus. He planted a flag — the fight is real, and conservatives either step up or get steamrolled.
And then he sat in Kirk’s empty podcast chair. That image alone — a leader refusing to let the lights go out — says more than a thousand think pieces.
What They Don’t Want You To See:
Mainstream headlines frame Kirk’s death as “political tension” or “discourse turned toxic.” They won’t call it what it is: a targeted assassination of a conservative leader.
Bottom Line:
Charlie Kirk’s death wasn’t just a loss — it was a test. Jack Posobiec just showed he’s willing to carry the weight and tell the truth without blinking. The question isn’t whether the fight is on. The question is: who else has the guts to step forward?
Fetterman Calls Out His Own Party’s Delusions
Says Trump isn’t an autocrat — just democracy they hate.
Sen. John Fetterman went on CNN and basically told Democrats what they refuse to hear: they lost because voters rejected their extremism, not because Trump is a dictator. “This is not an autocrat; this is a product of a democratic election,” he admitted.
Fetterman slammed the “Trump is a threat to democracy” narrative, saying Dems “lost the argument” and forgot why they lost 2024.
He warned against chasing the far left, noting battleground states decide elections — not Twitter activists.
On policy, he backed Trump’s federal crackdown on crime and defended Israel’s strikes on Hamas and Iran, while ripping Democrats floating a shutdown.
Here’s the kicker: Fetterman isn’t suddenly MAGA. He’s still voting the party line, still showing up for Dem leadership (barely). But his blunt honesty cuts straight through the delusion gripping his party — the idea that voters will reward them for being even more radical after getting spanked at the ballot box.
Bottom Line: When even John Fetterman says “respect democracy” and “Trump isn’t an autocrat,” you know the Dem narrative is collapsing from the inside.
Speaker Johnson Backs Russia Sanctions — With Trump in the Lead
Congress is hungry for action, but defers to the Commander-in-Chief.
Speaker Mike Johnson says sanctions on Russia are “long overdue” — and he’s ready to move fast. The Louisiana Republican is backing Sen. Lindsey Graham and Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick’s push to tack sanctions onto the must-pass budget deal.
Johnson says there’s a “big appetite” in Congress to punish Moscow but stressed it must be done in lockstep with President Trump.
“Congress really can’t do this on its own … it has to be a partnership,” Johnson noted.
He praised Trump as a “strong and bold leader” who has brokered peace in conflicts where others failed, saying he trusts Trump to push Ukraine toward an actual endgame.
The subtext: Johnson’s playing both hawk and loyalist. He wants to keep Russia squeezed, but makes it clear — Trump calls the shots on foreign policy. It’s a sharp contrast with Biden-era freelancing, where Congress tried to run the show while the White House stumbled.
Bottom Line: The sanctions push is real, but the power dynamic is clear — Johnson’s building muscle, Trump holds the pen.

Together with The Ledger
Jack Posobiec didn’t flinch. On CNN, he said it plain: “My friend’s in a box right now. And it wasn’t an accident.”
While the Left preaches “unity,” only one side is pulling triggers.
And then Posobiec sat in Charlie Kirk’s empty chair — a symbol that the lights don’t go out, the fight doesn’t stop.
The latest Ledger breaks it down: how Kirk’s death is already reshaping conservative activism, media narratives, security policy, and Trump’s 2026 playbook.
Charlie Kirk’s assassination wasn’t just an attack on a man — it was a shot at the entire conservative movement. The question is whether we fold or fight. Posobiec showed us the answer: keep the lights on. Speak the truth louder. Refuse to bow. Because if the left can kill one leader and silence millions, then America’s over. But if we turn grief into grit, we don’t just survive — we win.
