Nearly 8 in 10 Voters Say the United States is in Political Crisis After the Assassination of Charlie Kirk

Published

on

Nearly eight in ten voters believe that the United States is in a political crisis in the wake of the assassination of conservative icon Charlie Kirk.

According to a Quinnipiac University national poll of registered voters released on Wednesday, a massive 93 percent of Democrats, 84 percent of independents, and 60 percent of Republicans said the nation is in a political crisis.

“The Kirk assassination lays bare raw, bipartisan concerns about where the country is headed,” Quinnipiac University Polling Analyst Tim Malloy said of the poll results.

Quinnipiac reports:

Seventy-one percent of voters think politically motivated violence in the United States today is a very serious problem, 22 percent think it is a somewhat serious problem, 3 percent think it is a not so serious problem, and 1 percent think it is not a problem at all.

This is a jump from Quinnipiac University’s June 26 poll when 54 percent thought politically motivated violence in the United States today was a very serious problem, 37 percent thought it was a somewhat serious problem, 6 percent thought it was a not so serious problem, and 2 percent thought it was not a problem at all.

Nearly 6 in 10 voters (58 percent) think it will not be possible to lower the temperature on political rhetoric and speech in the United States, while 34 percent think it will be possible.

Over half, 54 percent, of voters believe the US will see increased political violence over the next few years. Another 27 percent said they think it will stay “about the same,” while just 14 percent believe it will ease.

A 53 percent majority also said they are “pessimistic about freedom of speech being protected in the United States.”

Surprisingly, a 53 percent majority also believes the current system of democracy is not working.

“From a perceived assault on freedom of speech to the fragility of the democracy, a shudder of concern and pessimism rattles a broad swath of the electorate. Nearly 80 percent of registered voters feel they are witnessing a political crisis, seven in ten say political violence is a very serious problem, and a majority say this discord won’t go away anytime soon,” Malloy added.

The vast majority, 82 percent, said the way that people discuss politics is contributing to the violence.

“When asked if political discourse is contributing to violence, a rare meeting of the minds…Republicans, Democrats, and independents in equal numbers say yes, it is,” Malloy said.

The survey was conducted from September 18 to 21 among 1,276 registered voters with a margin of error of +/- 3.3 percentage points.

Published

By

Vice President JD Vance, Second Lady Usha Vance, and their children arrived in Armenia on Monday.

This is the first-ever visit to Armenia by a sitting US President or US Vice President.

WATCH:

Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan greeted Vance at the Presidential Palace in the capital of Yerevan.

WATCH:

Vance praised Armenia as the oldest Christian country in the world.

Armenia adopted Christianity as its official religion in 301 AD.

The Armenians have been persecuted for their Christian faith. The Ottoman Muslim Turks killed more than 1.3 million Armenians at the beginning of the 20th century (Armenian Genocide).

“This is a beautiful country… I’m thankful for the personal welcome, not just to me personally, but also to my family. This is, of course, one of the oldest Christian cultures in the entire world, so I feel a great amount of affinity to the people of Armenia,” Vance said.

WATCH:

Once again, during a joint press conference with Pashinyan, Vance praised Armenia as the oldest Christian counry in the entire world.

“This is one of the oldest Christian countries in the entire world — a true bedrock of Christian civilization and culture. As a devout Christian myself, I know the meaning of this country to the entire world and to the religion that the prime minister and I share,” Vance said.

WATCH:

Vance and PM Pashinyan signed a nuclear deal.

“Vance and Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan signed an agreement to push forward negotiations on a civil nuclear energy deal, and Vance said the U.S. was ready to export advanced computer chips and surveillance drones to Armenia, and invest in the country’s infrastructure,” AP reported.

WATCH:

Last year, President Trump brokered a historic peace agreement between Armenia and Azerbaijan.

UK Cops Examining Complaint That Disgraced Former Prince Andrew Broke the ‘Official Secrets Act’ by Sharing Confidential Trade Information With Epstein

Andrew: misconduct in public office?

Sharing confidential files with Epstein is generating a police activity in the UK.

In the United Kingdom, the deluge of damning revelations contained in the US DOJ-released ‘Epstein Files’ is causing quite the commotion.

But while there are countless revelations of participating in international sex trafficking by elite figures like former Prince Andrew, what is really finally mobilizing some police response is the sharing of secret documents with the late pedophile-financier Jeffrey Epstein.

Today (9), UK police confirmed the ‘assessment’ of grave allegations that Andrew shared confidential trade files with Epstein.

The New York Post reported:

“The disgraced royal, who served as the UK’s Special Representative for International Trade and Investment between 2001 and 2011, allegedly sent Epstein reports about trips to Vietnam and Singapore in 2010, according to documents in the millions of files released about Epstein.”

“Trade envoys must keep details about trips confidential — even when they are no longer in the role under the Official Secrets Act.

[…] Thames Valley Police, which serves the area including the ex-royal’s former home in Windsor, confirmed it was looking at Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor after an anti-monarchy campaigner reported him for suspected misconduct in public office and breaches of Britain’s Official Secrets Act.”

Head of a British republican pressure group advocating the abolishing of the monarchy, Graham Smith reported Andrew to UK police.

Smith compared the allegations against Andrew to those of the former UK ambassador to the US, Peter Mandelson, accused of leaking government documents to Epstein in a scandal threatening to bring down the government.
