Benny Johnson remembers how Charlie Kirk sheltered his family
MAGA supporter and conservative commentator, Benny Johnson, on Wednesday, while condemning Charlie Kirk’s killing, shared a never-before-heard story from his past. During a Fox News show with Laura Ingraham, Johnson recalled an incident that severely damaged his home and posed a threat to his family. He said that there was a horrific fire on his block in Washington, DC, right after a mass shooting when DC defunded its police. “We had just brought home our newborn baby and the lives of my wife and my child were under threat. We felt horribly vulnerable and we felt truly like we had nowhere to go. Charlie Kirk, allowed me and my wife and my family to stay in his condo in Florida and to search for a new home when our home had been horribly fire damaged and when bullets rang out on my block,” Johnson said. He added that Charlie never asked for anything in return. Sharing the video on his X account, he wrote the whole story, adding, “I have a home in Florida and a thriving, growing family because of Charlie Kirk.” Kirk, an ally of US President Donald Trump, was shot at Utah University where he was holding his signature “Prove Me Wrong” debate.
