America is in mourning following the tragic assassination of Charlie Kirk, the fearless conservative leader who devoted his life to speaking truth and mobilizing the next generation of patriots.

Florida gubernatorial candidate Byron Donalds (R-FL) joined Laura Ingraham to deliver a message that every American must hear.

Rep. Byron Donalds:
“Laura, we can’t retreat from the crazy left. We simply can’t. If you do, you’re going to turn this country over to them. That’s not a provocative statement. That’s a statement of fact.

We have a responsibility in this moment to stand for the very principles that founded this nation, which is, yes, speaking your mind very clearly, petitioning your government, organizing, doing all those things, fighting for this Constitution, fighting for the future of America. That is the legacy of Charlie Kirk.

We can’t have a situation where now we’re fearful of even going out to eat with our loved ones or being outside. Obviously, the President, all the security measures they need to take, but we cannot retreat from this insanity. No, they win.

This country, and Charlie lived his life for this, this country is worth saving. It’s the best thing ever created on the face of the planet Earth. We’re 250 years in, and if we stand firm, we have another 250 years in front of.”

WATCH:

Donald’s words cut through the fog of grief and fear like a torch. His message was clear, now is the time for courage, not retreat.

In the wake of Kirk’s assassination, Democrats and their media allies have already tried to downplay the gravity of what happened, shifting blame and even pointing fingers at conservatives. But Donalds is right, if we allow the radical left to terrorize us into silence, then they win.

On his social media account, Congressman Donalds also honored his fallen friend with heartfelt words that resonated with millions of Americans:

“.@charliekirk11 was not only an American political legend, but I am honored to have been able to call him my friend.

He believed in the greatness of America, he believed in the power of conversation, and he fought to make our country a better place.

Charlie, we will never forget you, we will carry on your legacy, and your impact will be felt for generations to come.

God bless the Kirk family, and may Charlie rest in peace.”
