Charlie Kirk Successfully Accomplished His Actions

Charlie Kirk, a prominent conservative figure, passed away on September 17, 2025. His death sparked debate among conservatives, with Jeffrey H. Anderson suggesting they should respond by debating and enforcing the law against violence. Meanwhile, Allison Schrager, a senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute, remained focused on a different issue - the inability to recruit, train, and retain high-quality workers in child-protection systems.

In a tragic incident, Mackenzi Felmlee, an 18-year-old living with a foster family in Illinois, was killed by her foster parents. The Illinois Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS) failed to conduct a thorough investigation into Felmlee's death, a case that highlights the challenges in child-protection systems across the country. Sarah A. Font, in her analysis, cited Felmlee's case as an example of the failure of America's foster-care system.

The details of Felmlee's case are not fully known, but the limited information available suggests a problem with the system. This issue was further highlighted by Schrager, who argued that the inability to recruit, train, and retain high-quality workers in child-protection systems is a significant concern.

Meanwhile, the Trump administration announced a review of Smithsonian museums to ensure they "reflect the unity, progress, and enduring values that define the American story." However, this move was met with criticism from many critics who claimed it was an attempt to stifle free speech. The White House's museum review was seen as an extension of Anderson's criticism of museums for presenting a one-dimensional story of oppression.

The Manhattan Institute, a quarterly magazine of urban affairs, has been at the forefront of discussing various topics, including earnings reports, the courts, and transportation. The Institute publishes articles from various fellows, with Schrager being one of them.

Lastly, the Community Eligibility Provision, which allows schools to expand free school meals to wealthier students, has been a topic of debate. While it aims to ensure no child goes hungry, the expansion has consequences such as worsening kids' diets, increasing obesity, costing parents more time and money, and further burdening taxpayers.

In a time of mourning for Kirk and a call for reform in child-protection systems, these issues continue to challenge the nation. As discussions and debates ensue, it is crucial to maintain a focus on factual information and the pursuit of solutions.
