Franklin Graham Says Charlie Kirk Warned of ‘Unholy Alliance’ Threatening America Before His Death

Franklin Graham is reviving a warning from the late Charlie Kirk about an “unholy alliance” threatening the United States.

Graham, 74, took to X on Wednesday, November 11, to share a video of Kirk — who died in September 2025 at the age of 31, after he was fatally shot while speaking at an event at Utah Valley University — and the Samaritan’s Purse president “warned” of these bad actors “working together to destroy the America we have known and loved.”

“The spiritual battle is coming to the West,” Kirk warned in the one-minute clip. “And the enemies are wokism or Marxism combining with Islamism to go after what we call the American way of life.”

He continued, “And the American way of life is very simple: I want to be able to get married, buy a home, have kids, allow them to ride their bike till the sun goes down, send them to a good school, have a low crime neighborhood, not to have my kid be taught the lesbian, gay, transgender garbage in their school, while also not having them have to hear the Muslim call to prayer five times a day… We want the American way of life, which is, by the way, Christendom.”

The evangelical preacher said the latest evidence of Kirk’s warning about the loss of a Christian America came amid the U.S. midterm elections earlier this month, which saw Democrats regain control of both the Senate and House of Representatives.

“It’s a convergence of Islamists and the far left, including socialists and LGBTQ activists. These groups have one thing in common — they want to destroy democracy and change America forever,” Graham claimed.

Graham’s post was met with mixed reviews, however, with many social media users accusing the preacher of weaponizing religion to turn Americans against each other.

“Using religion to mischaracterize and demonize those fellow Americans with whom you disagree is destructive. You fashion yourself as a Christian preacher so I would think that your job would include speaking compassionately to all people, rather than vilifying large segments of society by calling them ‘unholy,'” one user wrote. “I don’t understand how you can reconcile your hateful rhetoric with your claim to be a minister.”

Another, meanwhile, pointed out that Kirk’s conservative nonprofit, Turning Point USA, failed majorly at the ballot box, proving that his message of hate and division didn’t land for voters.

“Not one of turning point USA’s candidates won their elected race,” the user tweeted. “He truly died for nothing. you out of touch hypocrite.”

One user agreed with Graham, however, pointing to a Bible verse to back Kirk’s claims.

“Charlie called it. The alliance is real. Islamists, socialists, and the far left all want the same thing: a different America. The midterms proved they can work together to get it. Stop acting surprised. Name it. Fight it,” the user wrote. “‘Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. For what partnership has righteousness with lawlessness?’ (2 Corinthians 6:14).”
