A Brooklyn reverend expressed disagreement with Charlie Kirk's views but emphasized the importance of holding a vigil for him, stating "I would hope this is something that will be well reciprocated by all sides in the future." The statement was made in the early hours of September 13th, 2025, amid continued national vigils for the assassinated conservative activist. Utah Governor Spencer Cox stated this morning, September 13th, 2025, that Utah must lead in overcoming political polarization following the assassination of Charlie Kirk at Utah Valley University, calling it "one of the most public assassinations in U.S. history." Tyler Robinson, 22, is accused of Kirk's assassination. Prosecutors in Utah are pursuing the death penalty against Robinson, who has reportedly "lawyered up" and is not speaking with investigators, according to information released between 1:01 AM and 1:46 AM UTC on September 13th. President Donald Trump departed New York City for Bedminster, New Jersey, at approximately 2:40 AM UTC on September 13th, as global vigils for Kirk continued. Trump was observed reading aboard Marine One during his departure from the Wall Street Landing. In New York City, attendees at a vigil in Madison Square Park chanted "We are all Charlie Kirk Now," according to reports. Charlie Kirk's widow, Erika Kirk, stated in the early hours of September 13th that her husband is "now with God." Stephen Miller vowed to continue Kirk's mission, stating Kirk's final message was a call to dismantle radical left organizations fomenting violence. Separately, a social media user commented that "This looks like one of those fake Wikiboxes you see on r/AlternateHistory." Earlier developments included Office Depot's refusal to print tribute posters for Kirk vigils, which were labeled "PROPAGANDA," and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass directing city flags to remain at full staff, overriding a federal proclamation to lower them to half-staff.
