Send us a text In the aftermath of Charlie Kirk's assassination, leftists across the country celebrated Charlie's death online. Right wing folks rose up en masse and demanded many of these people be fired by their employers. These included doctors, professors, teachers, and even Office Depot employees. Then Pam Bondi got involved and she made statements about hate speech and the federal government getting involved which, rightly, enflamed many right leaning Americans. Many Conservatives are accusing other Conservatives of embracing "cancel culture" and many Liberals are saying this infringes on American citizens' right to Freedom of Speech. Are either of these accusations true? In today's podcast, Hannah covers what Freedom of Speech really means and whether "cancel culture" should be utilized by Conservatives or not. Support the showhttps://www.thehannahmillershow.com/podcasts/https://bobslone.com/contact/bob@bobslone.com

It's Friday, September 19th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Iranian Christian denied a retrial for practicing his faith Mehran Shamloui, an Iranian Christian convert from Islam, has been denied a retrial for his case by the Iranian Supreme Court, reports International Christian Concern.  Shamloui was arrested in 2024 and, in March 2025, was sentenced to 10 years and 8 months in prison simply for participating in a house church. The charges against him included “propaganda activities contrary to Islamic law,” and “membership in groups opposing the state.”  He was released from jail after he posted bail in late 2024. He fled the country and intended to travel to Europe, but was stopped in Turkey. He was deported to Iran in July 2025 because he was missing formal documentation.  Shamloui is currently serving his sentence in Iran's Evin Prison, a notoriously deplorable institution known for mistreating its prisoners, including Christians.  Hebrews 13:3 says, “Continue to remember those in prison as if you were together with them in prison, and those who are mistreated as if you yourselves were suffering.” Iran is an Islamic Republic and a known persecutor of the Christian community. Bibles written in Farsi, the official language of Iran, are strictly prohibited, as is discussing Jesus with Muslims to share the gospel with them. Hadi Ghaemi, the executive director of The Center for Human Rights in Iran, said, “The Christian community in Iran is facing a crisis. The Iranian authorities are abducting growing numbers of Christians and throwing absurd national security charges at them in order to imprison them for years for doing nothing other than peacefully practicing their faith.” NY Attorney General vs. TX Attorney General over Abortion Kill Pill Far-left Democratic New York Attorney General Letitia James is intervening in Republican Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton's attempt to prosecute an abortionist for mailing abortion kill pills from one state to the other to undermine Texas's pro-life laws, reports LifeSiteNews.com. Paxton first filed his lawsuit in December 2024 against abortionist Margaret Carpenter, founder of the “Abortion Coalition for Telemedicine.”  Paxton alleged that Carpenter “unlawfully provided a Collin County resident with abortion-inducing drugs that ended the life of an unborn child and resulted in serious complications for the mother, who then required medical intervention.” Carpenter is not licensed to practice medicine in Texas. Subsequently, in February 2025, Judge Bryan Gantt of North Texas ordered Carpenter to stop sending abortion kill pills into the state and to pay a $100,000 fine. (Carpenter also faces charges out of Louisiana for the same).  So far, New York officials have protected the abortionist from consequences via the state's shield law, which bars cooperation with other states concerning laws against abortion. Paxton has challenged the shield law and sued the Ulster County, New York clerk who refused to enforce the fine. Americans celebrating Charlie Kirk's assassination held accountable The Secret Service, several U.S. airlines, Office Depot, and Nasdaq said they were among more than 30 employers that have sanctioned or fired employees in reaction to their disturbing statements about the assassination of Charlie Kirk, the founder of Turning Point USA, reports The Washington Post. Regarding the Secret Service, an agent named Anthony Pough wrote on Facebook, “If you are mourning this guy .. delete me,” in reference to Kirk's killing. Pough accused Kirk of spewing “hate and racism on his show.” Roughly three dozen workers are reported to have been suspended or fired over their responses to Kirk's murder, including employees of Clemson University, MSNBC, the Federal Emergency Management Agency, and the Carolina Panthers. Plus, several local fire departments and school districts said they had also suspended or terminated employees over their remarks. WLBT-TV reports that Lauren Stokes, the executive assistant for the Vice Chancellor of Development at the University of Mississippi, was fired for her anti-Kirk comments. She allegedly wrote, “For decades, yt [white] supremacist and reimagined Klan members like Kirk have wreaked havoc on our communities, condemning children and the populace at large to mass death for the sake of keeping their automatic guns. … So no, I have no prayers to offer Kirk or respectable statements against violence.” WNDU reports that 18-year-old Camryn Giselle Booker, a college student at Texas Tech, was expelled after a video of her publicly celebrating Charlie Kirk's death went viral.  In the video, she is jumping around and yelling at students paying tribute to Kirk on the Lubbock, Texas campus. Listen. BOOKER: “Your homie dead. He got shot in the head. Your homie dead. He got shot in the head.” After Booker was expelled, Texas Republican Governor Greg Abbott posted this comment on X. “Definitely picked the wrong school to taunt the death of Charlie Kirk. Thanks Texas Tech!” Felicia Branch, a professor at the University of Arkansas, is on administrative leave over her vile social media post, reports the Arkansas Times. She wrote, “No, I will not pull back from CELEBRATING that an evil man died by the method he chose to embrace.  Don't tell someone who has been targeted by people like him how to feel, how not to post, how not to celebrate, that he can no longer inflict his brand of evil.” She added that Kirk is “an evil person [who] is no longer on this earth causing immense suffering.” Arkansas Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders has called for Professor Felicia Branch to be fired. ABC yanked Jimmy Kimmel over Charlie Kirk comments And yesterday, ABC indefinitely suspended late-night host Jimmy Kimmel for inappropriate comments he made about the assassination of Charlie Kirk, reports Newsbusters.org. Here's the soundbite from Monday night. KIMMEL: “We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid, [Tyler Robinson], who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it.” Conservative talk show host Erik Erikson  called out the leftist comedian. He said, “What Kimmel was doing was participating in the creation of the leftwing talking point that Kirk's assassin was on the right. He did not have to participate. [Kimmel] chose to participate and circulate what was obviously, even on Monday, a lie. On top of that, it was not funny. It was hectoring and cruel.” Erikson reported that the primary reason Kimmel is no longer on the ABC program schedule is because of the influence of Nexstar, a moderately right-leaning group of stations, that controls 32 significant ABC affiliates including New Orleans, Nashville, Syracuse, Albany, and Grand Rapids and Lansing, Michigan. Nexstar decided to stop airing Kimmel's program. Star Spangled Banner's God-honoring fourth verse And finally, on September 14, 1814, Francis Scott Key penned the immortal words of “The Star Spangled Banner.” Key was a Washington attorney sent to the British navy to secure the release of a prisoner during the War of 1812. During his mission, the British bombarded Fort McHenry in Baltimore, Maryland. The sight of the American flag continuing to fly over the fort despite the barrage inspired the verses in the song. Congress officially made it the national anthem over a hundred years later. The opening verse is well known. But the later verses are more obscure. Listen to David Hedrick, a former Marine, sing the last half of verse four. HEDRICK: “Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation! Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just, And this be our motto: “In God is our trust;” And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave O'er the land of the free, and the home of the brave.” (applause) Indeed, Proverbs 3:5-6 says, “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to Him, and He will make your paths straight.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Friday, September 19th, in the year of our Lord 2025. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus (Adam@TheWorldview.com).

Donald Trump orders the National Parks to remove references to slavery from museums. The school shooter in Evergreen Colorado was a white supremacist. Charlie Kirk murder is the pretext for a major crackdown on liberal speech. Donald filed a massive defamation suit against the New York Times today. Pam Bondi threatened charges against an Office Depot employee who refused to print Charlie Kirk flyers. Grok and The Economist confirm most political violence is right-wing. Transtifa? Donald said “we have to beat the hell” out of “radical left lunatics”. Brian Kilmeade called for lethal injection for homeless mentally ill people.

Narratives > facts. Todd Thompson dissects the reaction to Charlie Kirk's killing, the UK's massive Unite the Kingdom march, and a new frontier: identity-based “self-defense” militia groups moving from slogans to weapons. When speech is spun as violence, dialogue, then people, die. -- Broadcast on WBCQ 7490 kHz (Sept 15, 2025, 10 p.m. ET), Todd Thompson takes on a week where storylines outran facts. He starts with the media spin surrounding the UK's Unite the Kingdom marches and the online chaos after Charlie Kirk's killing—noting how even basic details now fracture along partisan lines. From there, the episode tackles the asinine “words are violence” doctrine and why it normalizes deadly confrontation. Todd examines public materials and reporting around Armed Queers of Salt Lake City—a self-described socialist, anti-capitalist collective that promotes “queer resistance.” Posters featuring rifles, militant rhetoric, and campus events have circulated widely; as of broadcast, there was no confirmed official link to the Utah shooter, and Todd makes the larger point: once identity politics moves from slogans to weapons, taboos disintegrate and copycats follow. Closer to home, he touches on a ridiculous incident in Kalamazoo where an Office Depot "manager" refused to print a Charlie Kirk vigil poster and was promptly fired; an emblem of the cancel-culture boomerang finally, and predictably, striking in the opposite direction. The through-line is trust: collapsing institutions, informational anarchy with incompatible “truths,” and a culture that can't even agree on what happened five minutes ago. Blunt and unfiltered, the broadcast argues that dialogue only works if both sides still want a country to share. When moral certitude replaces inquiry, and institutions reward loyalty over facts, tribes do what tribes have always done. Subscribe, rate, review, and share!

Steve is joined by Ronna McDaniel, CEO of the Michigan Forward Network, to discuss the incident at Office Depot where an employee refused to print posters for a Charlie Kirk vigil. While the company has since fired the worker, the story underscores a bigger point: Americans are no longer willing to tolerate disgusting behavior in the face of tragedy. Steve and Ronna reflect on how Charlie's death has become a turning point, exposing the deep divisions in this country, but also showing that accountability is finally arriving for those who mock, dismiss, or stand in the way of decency.

This week's episode digs into the aftershocks of the Charlie Kirk shooting and the controversies that followed:

Office Depot employee FINDS OUT for REFUSING to print Charlie Kirk flyers! FAFO!

Office Depot launches a nationwide 15-minute pickup promise with $15 guarantees, brought to you by the A&M Consumer and Retail Group, Mirakl, Ocampo Capital, Infios, and Quorso. President Kevin Moffitt positions this as the ultimate convenience play, offering $15 coupons when orders aren't ready in time. Chris worries about operational strain on store teams, while Anne questions whether this is primarily a marketing hook building on their existing 20-minute capabilities.

In this week's Omni Talk Retail Fast Five, sponsored by the A&M Consumer and Retail Group, Mirakl, Ocampo Capital, Infios, and Quorso, Chris and Anne discussed: Sam's Club's brilliant app redesign — Anne and I break down why this move is so genius and what other retailers can and cannot learn from it. Gap's beauty gamble — The company wants to expand into beauty and accessories across all brands, starting with Old Navy. Is this Richard Dickson's next stroke of genius, or are they about to learn why Nintendo doesn't sell makeup? Albertsons' retail media evolution — Three new channels including influencer matching and premium in-store screens. We explore whether this “evolve or die” mentality is what separates winners from losers in retail media. Kroger's “deli of the future” — A 6,500-square-foot prepared food section that's supposed to revolutionize grocery. Anne loves the concept, but I'm asking the hard questions about scalability and architectural debt. Office Depot's 15-minute promise — They're guaranteeing pickup in 15 minutes or you get a $15 coupon but will this idea put too much strain on the store team? There's all that, plus we announce this month's OmniStar award winner Katherine Dela Cruz Paulk from Fabletics in partnership with Quorso, and dive into everything from New York Fashion Week to whether AI-generated movies are worth your theater ticket money.
