Stephen Miller, speaking on behalf of the Department of Justice and Homeland Security, vowed to "identify, disrupt, dismantle and destroy" domestic terror networks responsible for political violence, including the assassination of Charlie Kirk, in statements made within the reporting window of September 15th, 2025, between 8:17 PM and 8:47 PM UTC. Miller stated that these networks engage in "organized doxxing campaigns, organized riots, organized street violence, organized dehumanization, vilification, posting people’s addresses," and "messaging designed to trigger and incite violence." Miller's remarks, shared by Gavin Newsom, characterized the Democratic Party as a terrorist organization and warned against weaponizing political violence to threaten Americans. This announcement follows reports from earlier in the week indicating that theories suggesting Kirk was killed by a rightwing "Groyper" lacked evidence, with officials reportedly identifying the killer as a leftist.
