MAGA influencer Benny Johnson called on President Donald Trump and his administration to 'wield the sword' against the enemies of slain conservative activist Charlie Kirk during Kirk's memorial service in Glendale, Arizona, on Sunday.
Johnson, who hosts an eponymous MAGA podcast, made the comments during his speech at Kirk's memorial. The service was attended by high-profile administration figures like Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, and Trump himself.
During his speech, Johnson compared the Trump administration to the "godly government" that the Apostle Paul wrote about in the Book of Romans. He said God saved Trump's life from an assassin's bullet so that he could lead the country through the aftermath of Kirk's death.
Johnson also lobbed a thinly veiled threat of violence against those he considers "evil men" following Kirk's assassination.
"And what does the Apostle Paul say in Romans about a godly leadership?" Johnson asked. "He says that rules wield the sword for the protection of good men and for the terror of evil men."
"May we pray that our rules here, rightfully instituted and given power by our god, wield the sword for the terror of evil men in our nation in Charlie's memory," he added.
Johnson also compared Kirk to Stephen from the Book of Acts. Stephen is the Christian tradition's first martyr because he was stoned to death for his faith.
"Charlie Kirk is a martyr in the true Christian tradition," Johnson said. "If you cut down a tyrant, his power goes away. If you take out a martyr, his power grows, and that's what we see time and time again. We're seeing it across this country."
"The power of Christ's blood and the power of martyrdom speak through Charlie," he continued

Political commentators and analysts on Sunday slammed the MAGA-led memorial service for slain conservative activist Charlie Kirk.
Kirk was killed almost two weeks ago when he was struck by a single bullet while speaking at a Utah university campus, while giving a speech. His death has become a political flashpoint, with conservatives seeking to lionize Kirk while some Democrats have criticized some of Kirk's ideas.
A memorial service for Kirk was held in his hometown of Glendale, Arizona, on Sunday. It was attended by multiple high-profile MAGA members like President Donald Trump, his son Donald Jr., and Secretary of State Marco Rubio.
Several left-wing commentators and analysts responded to the memorial service on social media.
"MAGA is a cult," left-wing analyst Wajahat Ali posted on Bluesky. "Normies around the world, the majority, rightfully look at them as unhinged. We have the numbers. Don't bow down or be silenced. Also, don't make Charlie Kirk into a saint. Use your free speech to accurately call out his life that was lived in hate."
"Thing about this is that Charlie Kirk *was* a racist transphobic neonazi creep," podcaster Andrew Hickey posted on Bluesky. "Also misogynist and antisemitic. He was pure distilled hatred and evil. It's bad that he was shot, but that doesn't mean he was any less of a monster."
"All I can say is, this whole Charlie Kirk shit is weird and embarrassing," Josh Sternberg, executive editor of Morning Brew, posted on Bluesky.
"Charlie Kirk referred to slain civil rights leader Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. as 'an awful' person," USA Today opinion columnist Michael Stern posted on Bluesky. "And MAGA are going crazy if liberals do the same?"
"I will not whitewash the white supremacist that was Charlie Kirk," writer Mona Eltahawy posted on Bluesky. "For someone so young, what an embarrassment of hatreds he left us to excoriate him with

MAGA influencer Steve Bannon used a broadcast from Charlie Kirk's memorial to accuse many of America's teachers of being "terrorists."
Bannon made the remarks at State Farm Stadium on Sunday while hosting the memorial for Real America's Voice after co-host Gina Loudon noted that the late conservative activist had been "an advocate of marriage" and having "lots of children."
"These are not popular on college campuses right now, right?" Loudon said.
"Well, I actually think they are popular," Bannon replied, "but it's not the way those kids — look, from kindergarten all the way up, they are essentially, you know, a third of the teachers are terrorists that are trying to form them."
"You look at all this radical, the way they're formed," he added. "I think underneath, though, and that's why Charlie was supposed to — brought such a big audience, because it's a big part of Turning Point."
