Tulsi Gabbard Instagram – Charlie lived his life as a warrior for truth and freedom.
Every day, stepping into the arena, armed with the Constitution.
sparring through debate on the battlefield of ideas, for the heart of our democratic republic and unalienable rights endowed on us by our Creator.
Charlie lived what our founders envisioned:
freedom means the right to speak,
even when we disagree.
I may not agree with what you say.
But I will defend —
with my very life —
your right to speak.
Free speech is the foundation of our democratic republic
without it, we will be lost
we must protect it at all cost
Charlie stood in the arena, armed with superior arguments, truth, reason.
propelled and motivated by love for God, love for others,
love for our country
His words were his weapons—
to defeat ignorance,
to cut through lies,
to awaken minds, inspire hearts, gain wisdom
Charlie spoke with a calm courage.
Not asking, “What will God do for me?”
Instead, saying: “God, use me for Your will.”
He showed respect and compassion, even for those who opposed him.
He wanted people to understand the truth.
For it is the truth that sets us free.
It is the truth that keeps us free.
Our schools are meant to teach,
to train students to think critically, debate ideas,
Test their strength in the clash of reason.
But too often, the system silences debate
Claiming “words are violence”
Dissenting voices are silenced
Those who speak of God,
speak of objective truth, like there are only two genders,
are told they have no voice.
He challenged those institutions, students, and faculty to speak honestly, debate openly, and think critically.
And he was winning.
It was because he was winning that the forces of darkness tried to silence him.
History shows this dark pattern:
when ideas cannot withstand scrutiny —
whether its the ideology of religious or political fanatics —
their defenders turn to intimidation, censorship, and violence.
They kill and terrorize their opponents and the truth into silence. (Continued in comments) | Posted on 22/Sep/2025 21:51:58
