Trump Incites MAGA Base Following Kirk Killing
CNN Inside Politics
Sep 15, 2025

First: President Trump continues to use the Charlie Kirk killing to rally his MAGA base against the left while turning a blind eye to the far right's role in political violence. 

Plus: The Trump Administration says it's reached a framework deal with China to keep TikTok running in the US. Does it address the national security threats Trump has previously cited? 

And: New York Governor Kathy Hochul is endorsing Zohran Mamdani for Big Apple mayor.
