And Now, a Plot Twist So Twisted and Plotty That It Will Blow All of Your Damn Minds
—Ace
George Zinn was the leftwing codger who immediately declared he'd killed Charlie Kirk.
He admits his motive was to distract the police to allow the real killer to go free. It may have worked -- cops swarmed towards him while allowing Tyler Robinson to run from the sniper's nest unimpeded. Police caught him later, but Zinn does seem to have helped him initially escape from the scene of his vicious crime.
This is felony obstruction of justice, of course.
But what is going to shock all of you guys so hard is that he is very well-respected member of the most Love Is Love, Hater community there is.
From gnat's local:
BREAKING: George Zinn, 71, arrested at the scene of Charlie Kirk's assassination and who falsely claimed to be the shooter, has now been charged with felony obstruction of justice and four counts of sexual exploitation of a minor after the FBI discovered images of underage girls on his phone.
I shan't believe it. I simply shannot.
josette caruso @josettecarusoGeorge Zinn, the 71-year-old man initially arrested at the scene of the September 10, 2025, shooting death of conservative activist Charlie Kirk at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah, has now been charged with multiple counts of sexual exploitation of a minor related to child pornography possession. Zinn, a long-time fixture at Utah political events known for disruptive behavior and prior arrests (mostly for trespassing), falsely confessed to the shooting immediately after it occurred, shouting that he had done it and even asking police to shoot him. He later admitted to investigators that he lied to distract authorities from the real shooter, hoping to become a "martyr," but he has no known connection to the actual suspect, 22-year-old Tyler Robinson, who was arrested on September 12 after a manhunt.
The child pornography charges stem from a separate investigation triggered during Zinn's detention. After complaining of chest pains and being hospitalized, authorities examined his phone with his reluctant consent. He admitted to FBI agents that he used the device to view child sexual abuse material because it aroused him sexually. A review by sheriff's deputies uncovered more than 20 images of child pornography, including underage girls in underwear, along with explicit messages about sexual acts involving minors. On September 16, 2025, Utah prosecutors filed four felony counts of sexual exploitation of a minor against him, in addition to the existing second-degree felony charge of obstruction of justice. Zinn was booked into Utah County Jail after his hospital release.
Zinn's history includes over 30 years of arrests in Utah, such as a 2013 bomb threat charge at the Salt Lake City Marathon and repeated trespassing at political gatherings, protests, and even movie screenings. Efforts to enroll him in mental health court for misdemeanors were unsuccessful, according to local prosecutors. The case has drawn widespread attention amid the national outcry over Kirk's assassination, which President Trump called a "dark moment for America," but authorities emphasize Zinn's actions were unrelated to the plot.
Update! Via gKVWE, Zinn didn't have photos of barely-illegal girls.
Nope -- five year olds.

Disney Groomer Corporation "News:" The Messages the Vicious Left-Wing Assassin Left For His Trans Furry Lover Were "Very Touching, In a Way, That Many of Us Didn't Expect"
—Ace
ABC really wants its broadcast license yanked, and while I was against this previously, I now want Trump to go full authoritarian and shut them down.
They.
Won't.
Stop.
Valorizing/hero-izing.
Their.
Many.
Many.
Left-Wing.
Trantifa.
Assassins.
Curtis Houck @CurtisHouckDISGUSTING: ABC's Matt Gutman says he's not sure "if we have seen an alleged murder with such specific text messages" that were "very touching, in a way, that I think many of us didn't expect -- a very intimate portrait into this relationship between the suspect's roommate and the suspect himself, with him repeatedly calling his roommate, who is transitioning, calling him 'my love.' And 'I want to protect you, my love.'"
"So, it was this duality of someone who the attorney said not only jeopardized the life of Charlie Kirk and the crowd, but was doing it in front of children, which is one of the aggravating circumstances of this case. And then, on the other hand, he was, you know, speaking so lovingly about his partner. So a very interesting and, as Pierre said, riveting press conference."
Bonchie
@bonchieredstateAll it takes is transgenderism being involved, and suddenly the mainstream press thinks the shooter and his boyfriend are a touching love story.
Insane.

Left-Wing Soft on Terrorism Judge Throws Out Terrorism Charges for the Left's Dreamboat Assassin Luigi Mangione
—Ace
So NY State's murder law is odd.
What most states would call first degree murder, NYS calls second degree. In NY, second degree murder is intentional murder. In other states, second degree murder might be heat-of-passion crimes.
In NY, first degree murder -- which used to make you eligible for the death penalty, before the basket-case shithole state abolished that -- requires special circumstances, like killing a cop, judge, or political official. Other states would call this "aggravated first degree murder" or death-penalty-eligible murder.
Now that NY State has no death penalty, the worst penalty it can inflict for premeditated murder is 25 years to life without the possibility of parole.
Now that the left's latest Hot Terrorist is only eligible for second degree murder, he can be sentenced to 25 years to life -- but with the possibility of parole, which means that even if he's convicted, he could be out in, what?, eight years?
And he will be paroled, because the pro-terrorism, pro-assassination left is literally masturbating themselves to this latest left-wing killer.
Now what I didn't mention is that one of the special circumstances, apart from the victim being a cop or judge, that can get you a first-degree murder charge is if your murder was part of a terrorist action or was motivated by a desire to terrorize.
Obviously that's what Luigi Mangione intended. Terrorism is the use of violence to advance a political cause. We known Mangione intended to use violence to advance his political cause because he wrote "Delay, deny, depose" on his bullet casings -- note that he inspired Charlie Kirk's assassin -- and those words are associated with the left-wing critique of insurance providers. The left is angry that insurance companies don't pay for some procedures.
So he had been charged with terrorism, which then permits a first-degree murder charge.
But a left-wing judge tossed the terrorism charge.
He claims that the left's Heartthrob murderer didn't have a terrorist motive.
No, the left-wing, pro-terror judge reasons, he only wanted to kill the UnitedHealthCare CEO to... bring a political issue to the public's attention.
Which is just another way to say "terrorism," but while denying it's terrorism.
A judge has thrown out the top counts in Luigi Mangione's state murder case -- rejecting claims that the accused killer can be charged as a terrorist -- in a huge blow to prosecutors.In a ruling released Tuesday, Judge Gregory Carro tossed charges of murder in the first degree as an act of terrorism and murder in the second degree as a crime of terrorism against the 27-year-old Ivy League grad.
The judge did keep alive Mangione's other second-degree murder charge for allegedly executing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in cold blood outside the health care company's investor conference on Dec. 4, 2024.
"The People presented sufficient evidence that the defendant murdered Brian Thompson in a premeditated and calculated execution. That does not mean, however, that the defendant did so with terroristic intent," Carro wrote in his decision.
...
Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg was "wildly overcharging" Mangione in an attempt to make a "great headline," veteran defense attorney Ron Kuby said at the time.
In New York state, murder in the first degree is typically charged in the rare cases involving victims who are law enforcement members, possible witnesses to crimes, firefighters or medical personnel. It can also use it in alleged terrorism cases.
It is absolutely bizarre to cite Ron Kuby as an "expert" here, given that he is a radical left-wing lawyer who opposes virtually all criminal penalties and is the former partner of more-famous left-wing radical lawyer Kunstler.
William Moses Kunstler (July 7, 1919 -- September 4, 1995) was an American attorney and civil rights activist, known for defending the Chicago Seven.[1] Kunstler was an active member of the National Lawyers Guild, a board member of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) and the co-founder of the Center for Constitutional Rights (CCR), the "leading gathering place for radical lawyers in the country."[2]Kunstler's defense of the Chicago Seven from 1969 to 1970 led The New York Times to label him "the country's most controversial and, perhaps, its best-known lawyer".[2] Kunstler is also well known for defending members of the Revolutionary Communist Party, Catonsville Nine, Black Panther Party, Weather Underground Organization, the Attica Prison rioters, Meir Kahane assassin El Sayyid Nosair, and the American Indian Movement. ....Kunstler refused to defend right-wing groups, such as the Minutemen, on the grounds that "I only defend those whose goals I share. I'm not a lawyer for hire. I only defend those I love."
Kuby is his disciple:
While in college, Kuby interned with William Kunstler, a senior lawyer with 20 years' experience, notable for many of his sensational cases including the defense of the Chicago Seven. From 1983 until Kunstler's death in 1995, Kuby worked as an unofficial partner in Kunstler's law firm, with both men taking up "the fight for the poor, the oppressed and the downtrodden". The two men declared they were not only colleagues, but best friends as well.Kunstler and Kuby never formalized a partnership with a contract or tax filings. Despite a letterhead that read "Kunstler and Kuby", Kuby was paid as an employee and never shared in the firm's profits and losses.
Fun trivia, I once had cause to visit the Kunstler and Kuby law offices. They were a stinky pit that resembled the basement of a low-achieving fraternity that all of the college's drug dealers pledged at.
Why would the Post cite this man as an "expert" in this case?
So why would you cite Ron Kuby, with a long history of proudly defending communist terrorists, as a disinterested expert about terror charges?
Do you not know this, NY Post? Do you need someone else to step in and do your fucking job for you?
So now in NY, left-wing communist assassins now have a hunting license to murder CEOs and other despised capitalists.
There has already been talk of some major corporations moving out of NYC due to the the fact the city is becoming communist Cambodia. We just had another murder at a corporate office a couple of months ago, as a man walked in and began shooting up NFL employees because he couldn't get in to kill the BlackRock employees he was hunting.
Will major corporations finally flee NY for Florida?
Will Wall Street flee?
NY is profligate spending state and can only survive due to the world's wealthiest corporations being based there, and all paying corporate taxes themselves and, even more importantly, locating all of their high-paid employees and executives there, who also pay the exorbitant NY tax rates and thereby keep the shithole city nearly solvent.
What happens when they all leave?
We may see. We may see.
Meanwhile: left-wing murder-groupies celebrate Luigi Mangione's reprieve.

Egg with Legs and Town Pump Porkchop Fani Willis Permanently Disqualified from Prosecuting the Indictments She Conjured Against Trump
—Ace
Darrius "Sweetdick" Honeycum, Esq., hardest hit, as are his Sexual Law associates Lance Clamstabber and Rex DeQuim. They will no longer be making hundreds of thousands of dollars on a case they have no qualifications for apart from their ability to maintain an erection in the face of Fani's weapons-grade fromunda stank.
So a lower court had already barred her for any further involvement in this case she contrived for partisan reasons, and now the Georgia Supreme Court leaves that ruling in place. There is no further appeal. She's done.
Below, the post from Jeff Clark, who was one of the people persecuted by this evil whore. I've added some words he absent-mindedly forgot to include.
Jeff Clark @JeffClarkUSI'm pleased to announce that Bloated Sow Fani Willis has now been permanently disqualified from prosecuting the indictment that she brought against President Trump, me, and many others.
The Georgia Supreme Court denied cert to Porky Perjurer Fani Willis, who was attempting to get that Court to take her case, so that she could try to get un-disqualified after the Georgia Court of Appeals threw her off the case which took a lot of strength because dis bitch weigh three bill twenty.
The case now moves to the Prosecuting Attorneys Council of Georgia. They will decide on a replacement for Willis and her ginormous gunt in all of its floppy Lovecraftian horror.
Praise the Lord for progress in this case. It never should have been brought in the first place. Fani Willis will now be free to spend more time with the tens of thousands of dollars she claims she stashes around her house, and her collection of industrial strength Female Massage Wands.
NY Post, likewise with emendations:
Fulton County District Attorney and Last Resort Hook-Up Fani Willis on Tuesday lost her bid to get back on the Georgia election interference case against President Trump -- who celebrated by calling her a "disaster."The embattled, enTwinkied prosecutor and future Mukbang content creator was booted from the high-profile case in December by the Georgia Court of Appeals, which cited the "appearance of impropriety" and "general grossness" over her affair with the special prosecutor and booty-servicing "King of Sting" Nathan Wade leading the case.
Georgia's top court said Tuesday that it would not consider reversing a lower court's ruling.
Trump cheered the decision on the White House lawn just before he departed for the UK -- arguing that the felonious swampass Willis should be prosecuted.
We were unable to obtain comment from her gnarly quim.

Of Course: Biden Weaponized the FBI to Go After... Charlie Kirk
—Ace
Good Tuesday, Gentlemen and Female Gentlemen.
First they went after the J6ers, then they went after the families of the J6ers, then they went after anyone who ever interacted with the J6ers.
But the J6ers were never the real target. Just like when the left began agitating to deplatform Alex Jones and punch Nick Fuentes, those were just test-cases intended to prepare the public for deplatforming Ben Shapiro and, ultimately, murdering Charlie Kirk.
After Biden's and Chris Wray's FBI ran out of people who went to grade school with the J6ers, they turned to the real target: every Republican advocacy group, including the RNC (!!!) and Turning Point USA.
FBI Director Kash Patel faces questions during a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing Tuesday morning, during which Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) revealed that whistleblower revelations showed that Joe Biden's FBI targeted not just Donald Trump, but a wide swath of Republican organizations -- including Charlie Kirk's Turning Point USA.Grassley reminded Patel of the FBI's recent history of political weaponization, pointing directly to an operation known as "Arctic Frost."
"At your nomination hearing, I made public records that whistleblowers provide me about Arctic Frost," Grassley said. "Arctic Frost was the FBI case opened and approved by anti-Trump FBI Agent Thibeau. Arctic Frost then became Jack Smith's elector case against then-citizen Trump and now-President Trump."
According to Grassley, newly obtained records show that the Arctic Frost probe was far broader than previously known. "The case was expanded to Republican organizations," Grassley explained. "Some examples of the group that Wray and FBI sought to place under political investigation included the Republican National Committee, Republican Attorney General's Association, and various Trump political groups."
The scope was staggering. "In total, 92 Republican targets, including Republican groups and Republican-linked individuals, were placed under investigative scope of Arctic Frost," Grassley said. "On that political list was one of Charlie Kirk's groups, Turning Point USA."
Grassley argued that the evidence proves that Arctic Frost was more than just an anti-Trump operation. It was actually about crippling the Republican political infrastructure.
"In other words, Arctic Frost wasn't just a case to politically investigate Trump," Grassley declared. "It was the vehicle by which partisan FBI agents and Department of Justice prosecutors could achieve their partisan ends and improperly investigate the entire Republican political apparatus."
Grassley recently revealed that Thibault, who by this time was a known partisan bad-actor, induced two other FBI agents to "open" the investigation that Thibault himself had opened, to hide his role in it.
Based on the facts and evidence that Senator Johnson and I've obtained to-date, and based on the FBI's own rules, Thibault essentially self-approved his own case, in violation of FBI rules.Accordingly, Arctic Frost, as they codenamed the Trump case, was defective from the start -- not only from a political infection standpoint, but also because of substantial non-compliance with FBI rules.

The Morning Rant: Minimalist Edition
—CBD
The inevitable result of the leftist "Long March Through The Institutions" has been the destruction of traditional education, replaced with a putrid soup of half-baked education theories, all buttressed by virulent indoctrination in every progressive ideal. Communitarianism, pacifism, rejection of traditional sex roles, rejection of religion, elevating the environment over humanity, and on and on.
We have seen the broken students that their system has produced, in Antifa and BLM and SJP and the obscene campus Jew-Hate and Christian-Hate, and most recently with the assassination of Charlie Kirk by Small Penis Coward (I won't use his name).
Charter schools and home schooling is the only way in the short and medium term that American parents can save their children from the depredations of the educational left. And the left is very well aware of that, thus their unrelenting attacks on charter schools as some bastion of the antebellum South or Hitler Youth summer camps.
And now they are coming after home schooling!
New Jersey homeschool families fight back as state tries to mandate DEI teachings in their homes
A new bill in New Jersey could require homeschooling parents to teach their kids about controversial topics such as diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI).The proposal, which is still under review, would force homeschooling parents to submit a curriculum in line with state learning standards. That includes subjects like gender identity, sexual orientation, DEI and climate studies.
It would also add more oversight to homeschooling, requiring families to submit a portfolio of student work every year to be evaluated by either a teacher or a licensed psychologist.
Supporters claim the new rules would help improve transparency about what kids are being taught at home. They also say it could potentially help protect children from being trapped in abusive situations.Because New Jersey's public schools are incredibly safe from physical violence, crumbling infrastructure, and sexual predation by teachers!
Imagine a couple of blue-haired, pierced and tatted freaks from your local school system with the power to control your home schooling curriculum! The Bible? YOU CAN'T READ THAT! Robert E. Lee? NO! HE WAS A RACIST! Calvin Coolidge? WHITE SUPREMACIST! American Exceptionalism? WE ARE ALL GUILTY! Two Sexes? HOW DARE YOU!
But there is hope, as America may very well have awakened to the existential danger of the progressive world view. The outpouring of support for Charlie Kirk from much of normal America may be the last gasp of a dying culture, but it also may be the spark that energizes us to take back our schools, our streets, and our political structures.

The Morning Report — 9/16/25
—J.J. Sefton
Good morning kids. From the moment we saw the horrific image of a bullet slamming through Charlie Kirk's neck, the blood libels gushed out in a torrent along with his lifeblood. One of the first things we heard was that the shot came from a pistol packing rally-goer who was firing off celebratory rounds willy nilly. And then without any evidence whatsoever, the Democrat Propaganda complex blamed the so-called right wing. Given the weight of history and of who and what Charlie Kirk was, as well as the weight of evidence that has been collected since this nightmare began, it was ridiculous on the face of it, and yet here we are one week later.
Soon after authorities identified Charlie Kirk's alleged assassin, Tyler Robinson, a conspiracy theory began to rocket around liberal corners of the internet. Robinson, the theory went, may have appeared to be on the left side of the political aisle but was actually a supporter of President Donald Trump trying to make liberals look bad.The evidence that Robinson is a staunch leftist is compelling. He left anti-fascist calling cards on the ammunition found at the scene. He told family members about his disdain for Kirk's political views. He was living with a male romantic partner who identifies as transgender. Investigators who interviewed those close to Robinson came away with the clear impression that he "was a person who was deeply indoctrinated with leftist ideology," according to Utah governor Spencer Cox (R.).
The plurality of Americans surveyed in a YouGov poll bought into the false narrative that the alleged assassin of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk is a Republican.Several notable figures rushed to claim that the suspect, 22-year-old Tyler Robinson, was a conservative Christian, though Republican Utah Gov. Spencer Cox and federal authorities later confirmed that Robinson became “deeply indoctrinated with leftist ideology.” The poll found that 24% of all adults have bought into the idea that Robinson is not, in fact, liberal.
Yes you cannot hate the media enough. I better be careful, but I am assuming despite that declaration, Black Rock, 30 Rockefeller Plaza and CNN HQ will not encounter simultaneous truck bombs from anyone who read that.
Elsewhere, despite the ululations from the Leftists over Charlie Kirk's being slaughtered as is sadly, though clearly evident in the links, one more disgusting than the other as you slog through them.
It is encouraging that worldwide there have been wonderful outpourings of grief and praise for this truly remarkable man. More crucially, there have been thousands of inquiries both from here at home and from all over the world from people looking to become part of TPUSA and align themselves with the free speech movement that he championed so effectively.
As George Patton in his eponymous biopic sadly noted upon the death in battle of his Aide de camp "I can't see the reason such fine young men get killed. There are so many battles yet to fight."
But let the words of his grieving widow serve as a clarion call and a way forward.
On Friday, she addressed the nation, a mere fifty-four hours after he was viciously assassinated. Her speech was an amazing testament to her courage and resilience. She showed no signs of retreating. In fact, her goal is to expand the message and outreach of her husband’s remarkable organization, Turning Point USA.The sixteen-minute address was truly astounding as Erika Kirk displayed unbelievable poise and composure. She vowed, “The cries of this widow will echo around the world like a battle cry.”
She also reassured the millions of people who supported her husband. She said, “To everyone listening tonight across America, the movement my husband built will not die. It won’t. I refuse to let that happen. It will not die. All of us will refuse to let that happen.”
Erika Kirk was not only responding as an aggrieved widow, but she was also speaking for millions of conservatives nationwide who are tired of the continual abuse they receive from lunatic leftists.
From Hebdo to Kirk, here we are. No surrender, and no retreat. While this is encouraging. . .
White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller pledged on Monday to use the whole of the federal government to target and dismantle the organized left-wing domestic terrorist movement in the United States.Miller made the remarks to Vice President J.D. Vance, who was hosting The Charlie Kirk Show as a special tribute to the 31-year-old Turning Point USA founder. Kirk, a conservative firebrand and devout follower of Jesus Christ, was assassinated while engaging in debate at Utah Valley University on Wednesday, September 10. The suspect in the case, 22-year-old Tyler Robinson, was reportedly in a romantic relationship with a male transgender roommate, and “Hey fascist! Catch!” was inscribed on one of the rounds found in the alleged murder weapon.
“I have an organized strategy to go after the left-wing organizations that are promoting violence in this country, and I will write those words onto my heart, and I will carry them out,” Miller said. “If people ask me, you know, what emotions I’m feeling right now… I mean, you kind of know the answer. There’s incredible sadness, but there’s incredible anger. And the thing about anger is that unfocused anger or blind rage is not a productive emotion. But focused anger, righteous anger directed for a just cause is one of the most important agents of change in human history.”
As I said, encouraging until you realize that the Democrat National Committee and Party are at the top of the food chain here. Much of their campaign lucre, goes directly or indirectly via NGOs or Bureaucratic slush funds in the form of grants to organizations that promote, foment or even directly participate in violence or other tactics to persecute, punish and abuse their political opponents/enemies.
As some have posted, and I have articulated here for quite some time, and as recently as yesterday, the greatest mistake of history was that the Democrat Party was not absolutely dismantled and outlawed following the Civil War that they caused. Everything wrong with this country, politically and culturally — all of the bloodshed, misery, suffering, dislocation, wastage of life, treasure and human potential is directly the fault of the Democrat Left's policies and actions it has inflicted on us since at least the time that Aaron Burr murdered Alexander Hamilton right up until the present day. Period, full stop.
To swipe the saying of Democrat Superhero Mao Tse Tung, let a hundred flowers bloom - - let Charlie Kirk's martyrdom Let a million patriots come forward to carry on in his name.
Amen!
And lastly, a quick shout-out and thank you for your continued support in hitting our tip jar. It truly is appreciated more than you can know.
Have a great day!

Joe Manchin: Obama and Biden Destroyed "the Guardrails" That Make Peaceful Democracy Possible
—Ace
He also says that Biden was an anger junkie incapable of controlling his temper.
And that's before he lost most of his executive function to dementia. (That's my addition at the end, he didn't say that.)
Former Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin is opening up about the wrath he faced from former President Joe Biden -- and how the West Virginian was quietly pulling for Republicans to retake the Senate this past November to save the filibuster.In his forthcoming book, "Dead Center," Manchin -- the former West Virginia governor who repped the Mountain State for more than 14 years in the Senate -- accused prominent Democrats of undermining the system of checks and balances for more than a decade.
"I don't say this lightly, but under the leadership of President [Barack] Obama and Majority Leader Harry Reid, and later President Biden and Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, Democrats have systematically tried to weaken the very guardrails that have protected our democracy for generations -- all in the name of advancing their agenda," wrote Manchin, 78, in an excerpt obtained by Punchbowl News.
Manchin, who opted not to seek a third full term in 2024, often found himself at loggerheads with Democratic leadership over his concerns that the far left had too much sway in the party.
In his final term, Manchin and fellow Sen. Kyrsten Sinema of Arizona took a public stance against doing away with the Senate's 60-vote legislative filibuster.
In 2022, Manchin recounted, he faced pressure from Schumer to weaken the filibuster to pass election legislation.
"Schumer wasn't interested in debate or persuasion," Manchin wrote. "He wanted a spectacle. He wanted a vote he could weaponize, a moment he could broadcast to the radical left to prove his loyalty. This wasn't about governing or principle. It was about power."
...
Turning to Biden, Manchin knocked the 46th president for having a "very bad temper," though the West Virginian apparently was willing to give as good as he got.
In early 2021, during negotiations over the $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan, Manchin says he called out Biden as "reckless" for "sending a f--ing check to everyone."
The American Rescue Plan was blamed in part for annual inflation hitting 9.1% in June 2022 -- the highest rate in nearly 40 years.
...
"When the party pushes hard on woke ideology, DEI [diversity, equity, and inclusion] mandates, and other social agendas, it creates unnecessary divisions, alienates everyday citizens, and moves us further away from the commonsense middle ground where most Americans actually live their lives," he argued.
He says he kept waiting for the moment to change parties, but only now realizes he should have done so in 2016.
Meanwhile, President Trump confirms that the antifa killer was radicalized by left-wing extremists on the internet, and discusses declaring antifa a terrorist organization and using RICO to bankrupt its funders.

I mean "died," as the NYT says of Charlie Kirk.

The Trans-"Ally" Antifa Assassin Confessed to His Trans Pals

'It was me': Suspect in Charlie Kirk shooting appeared to confess in Discord chat'Im sorry for all of this' read a message from the suspect's account, according to two people familiar with the message and screenshots obtained by The Post.
The 22-year-old suspect in Charlie Kirk's killing appears to have confessed to friends in an online chat shortly before turning himself in to law enforcement, according to two people familiar with the chat and screenshots obtained by The Washington Post.
"Hey guys, I have bad news for you all," said a message from an account belonging to the suspect, Tyler Robinson, on the online platform Discord. "It was me at UVU yesterday. im sorry for all of this."
The message was sent Thursday night, about two hours before officials said Robinson was taken into custody.
AdvertisementA member of the group chat shared an image of the conversation with The Post and confirmed that it came from Robinson's account. The person spoke on the condition of anonymity to protect their privacy and out of fear of harassment.
Discord provided a copy of the message with the confession to authorities, according to a person familiar with the company's interaction with law enforcement. The person spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to publicly discuss details of the investigation.
The message was sent from Robinson's account to a small private group of online friends, the person said. Discord is working closely with the FBI and local authorities, providing information about Robinson's online activities on the platform, the person added.
Previously, Discord had said that an internal investigation found "no evidence that the suspect planned this incident or promoted violence on Discord."
So Discord lied to protect either itself or its leftwing far-left extremists.
If a confession isn't enough, they found the killer's DNA at the shooter's nest.
Tyler Robinson had a rabid "obsession'' with Charlie Kirk and vowed to "take out" the conservative influencer because he "hated" his views -- boasting he had the perfect murder plan, the FBI revealed Monday."I think it's pretty clear based on the statements of family members, friends and some of the messaging we have on these digital footprints left behind that [Robinson] clearly had some obsession with Charlie Kirk," FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino told Fox's "America's Newsroom" on Monday.
"Charlie Kirk is obviously a conservative commentator," Bongino said. "I think it's fairly obvious to everyone out there, and there's no need to parse words with it, that clearly this was an ideologically motivated attack."
FBI Director Kash Patel told Fox earlier in the day that Robinson, 22, had even told someone about his heinous plot before he fatally shot Kirk, 31, with a single bullet to the neck in an appearance at Utah Valley University on Wednesday.
"He had a text message exchange with another individual in which he claimed that he had an opportunity to take out Charlie Kirk -- and he was going to do it because of his hatred for what Charlie stood for," Patel told "Fox & Friends."
But the accused killer -- a "furry''-obsessed trade-school student with a transitioning male-to-female partner -- suggested the same murderous thought later on a physical note, Patel said.

JD Vance Guest Hosts the Charlie Kirk Show: "This is not a 'both sides' problem"

Collin Rugg @CollinRuggJD Vance goes scorched earth on people celebrating the assassination of Charlie Kirk, says there can be no unity with these sick people.
"There is no unity with people who scream at children over their parents' politics."
"There is no unity with someone who lies about what Charlie Kirk said in order to excuse his murder."
"There is no unity with someone who harasses an innocent family the day after the father of that family lost a dear friend."
"There is no unity with the people who celebrate Charlie Kirk's assassination."
"There is no unity with the people who fund these articles, who pay the salaries of these terrorist sympathizers, who argue that Charlie Kirk, a loving husband and father, deserved a shot to the neck because he spoke words with which they disagree."

FBI Investigating a Conspiracy of Violent Far-Left Transgenders Who Proclaimed That Charlie Kirk Would be Murdered on September 10th and Who Admitted Their Role in the Conspiracy: "We F***ing Did It!"
—Ace
As you of course know, the latest left-wing antifia assassin was living with a transgender "transitioning to female" in a "romantic" relationship. This transgender also appears to be a furry, appearing on camera in a squirrel hoodie.
As already mentioned, one of the messages scrawled on the bullet casings was "notices bulge oWO," which XTC explained is a reference noticing a bulge on a "woman" he's fooling around with, and becoming even more interested than when he thought the man was a woman.
BlueAnon conspiracists claimed that this is really a "right-wing meme." Knowing now for a fact that Robinson was banging a dude who thinks he's "transitioning," we can say no, this was definitely a far-left transgender/furry meme. The fact that the right mentions this meme means nothing: We on the right frequently mention left-wing memes to make fun of them. This site is almost 60% sarcastic repetitions of left-wing cant.
You also know that a transgender -- or the self-identified "Non-binary GOAT" "Skye Valdez" -- recorded a song "predicting" Kirk's murder on September 10th and then wrote a song called "Charlie Kirk Dead at 31." This transgender then deleted those songs after people noticed them.
That transgender, and more transgenders and transgender-"ally" antifa members, wrote many messages "predicting" Kirk's assassination and then, after the murder, admitted their role in a conspiracy. One of these wrote, "We f***ing did it!," which will be crucial evidence in court of their membership in the conspiracy to commit premeditated murder.
Note that that poster also admits he physically met ("saw") the killer on June 30.
Or did he?
Deb Heine has made an extremely interesting observation about that date, but I will not mention it until she publishes. Maybe some of you can figure out what she's figured out. Let's just say the post is essentially an admission of a major role in the conspiracy.
I assume she will publish at American Greatness when she's ready.
Update: Deb Heine already tweeted her find. She points out that June 30 is 6/30, or 30-6.
The caliber of the assassin's rifle is 30-06.
Coincidence? Or admission that he know the rifle left at the "DROP POINT" was/is a Mauser 98 in 30-06 caliber?
This one says: "i plead the fifth."
Another one "predicts" the murder.
More from Aaron Silberium from the Free Beacon.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation is investigating social media posts by at least seven different accounts that appeared to indicate foreknowledge of the assassination of Charlie Kirk, according to three people familiar with the investigation and screenshots obtained by the Washington Free Beacon.The posts--one of which referenced the date of Kirk's assassination, September 10, more than a month before it took place--were all deleted in the days following the killing. Several of the accounts appear to belong to transgender individuals, and at least one of them followed suspect Tyler Robinson's roommate, with whom Robinson was allegedly in a relationship, on TikTok.
I think these are just the public posts. We will see more from the private (for now) discord chats. We will see the conspiracists plotting, and we'll find out who left the assassination rifle at the "DROP POINT."
Does this have something to do with June 30? We shall see.
The FBI has received archived copies of the posts, according to a person who flagged them for the agency. Screenshots of the posts have been circulating online but had not been previously authenticated.While the posts do not establish that any of the individuals knew or conspired with Robinson, the 22-year-old gunman who allegedly shot Kirk, several of them mention the conservative activist by name and fantasize about his death.
I think this is a disclaimer made for legal reasons. No, the posts do not prove these people are part of a conspiracy, but when you know and interact with the killer, and you "predict" that Charlie Kirk will be "vaporized" on September 10th and then the people you talk to online actually kills Kirk on September 10th, it is hard to deny that you were informed before the murder that the murder was to take place.
"itd be funny if someone like charlie kirk got shot on september 10th LMAO," one X account posted on September 3.Another account posted on August 6--more than a month before the shooting--that "september 10th will be a very interesting day." After Kirk's assassination, the account followed up: "I plead the fifth."
The morbid quip was reposted by an account named "churbum75m (SAW TYLER JUNE 30)," who appears to follow Robinson's roommate, Lance Twiggs, on TikTok, where Twiggs's username is "lanclotl."
There's that date again.
Minutes after Kirk was pronounced dead, churbum75m posted on X: "WE FUCKING DID IT."Several of the accounts under investigation appear to be associated with LGBT subcultures. One individual, "Osamu bin Tezuka," used the X handle "@fujoshincel," a reference to a genre of anime that depicts romantic relationships between men.
Another user, "@NajraGalvz," who had wished death to Kirk and predicted that "something big will happen" when he set foot on campus, had identified as nonbinary on X.
I've seen it reported that this Person Place or Thing is the "Skye Valdez" who wrote the song "predicting" Charlie Kirk's murder, and then the song "Charlie Kirk Dead at 31" celebrating it. This article isn't making that connection so I guess it hasn't been confirmed by sources.
And in a video posted on TikTok the night before the shooting, an individual who appears to be transgender wrote that "charles james kirk...does not know what's coming tomorrow."
"This isn't a threat," the individual added. "It's a promise."
Obviously this is further proof of an active conspiracy, and this post will also be introduced at trial against the conspirators.
I should say that legally, just knowing that someone is going to commit a crime is not proof of conspiracy. However, the definition of conspiracy is merely the agreement before two or more people that a felony should be committed. You don't have actually commit the crime. You just have to agree that one of your number should commit the crime.
All of these people sure seem to be agreed that this crime should be committed.
See that article for additional admissions of the conspiracy.
Update: sven says that Utah has a stern law about participation in a conspiracy to commit a death-penalty-eligible crime. To wit, you can get the death penalty even if you're a "non-active conspirator."
One nice thing about the homicide being in Utah is their felony murder doctrine does not f**k around the case can and has to be made on individual cases in a conspiracy on whether the behavior merits the death penalty for NON-ACTIVE conspirators.This is a brutal interrogation tool psychologically and is one of the rare cases and states where I'd rather the Feds let the state work first.

I don't know if that's true. I'll look it up at some point.
Charlie Kirk assassination investigation widens to probe whether pro-trans, online groups knew in advance
The feds have widened their investigation into the assassination of Charlie Kirk to probe whether pro-trans, online groups and others connected with Tyler Robinson knew in advance about the plan to kill the MAGA influencer, The Post has learned.Law enforcement sources said that investigators are examining leftist groups both in Utah and online to figure out if they helped him with the shooting -- or at least heard it was going to happen.
The probe includes groups in online gaming community Steam, as well as a pro-trans organization called Armed Queers SLC, which took down their Instagram after Kirk was killed, the source confirmed.
...
Taken together, they leave a trail of breadcrumbs for investigators who are trying to determine whether Robinson acted all on his own, or had accomplices.
Utah group Armed Queens SLC, whose logo features two high-powered rifle rounds similar to the one that struck Kirk, hosted a lecture on "queer resistance" at the University of Utah in September, 2023 -- around 45 miles from Utah Valley University where the 31-year-old Turning Point USA founder and Trump ally lost his life.
Note there this article calls them Armed Queens, whereas earlier they called it Armed Queers. I think it's Queers with an R. There's a picture of one of their propaganda posters calling themselves Queers. Maybe they called themselves both at different times.
Flyers promoting the event hosted in partnership with self-described "leftist student organization" Mecha de U of U obtained by Young America's Foundation feature a young woman clad in two ammo belts and clutching an AK-47, with her finger on the trigger....
In an interview with Voyage Utah last year, a representative for Armed Queers SLC said in response to a question about risk-taking, "Our commitment to something much bigger than ourselves, to people's struggles against racism, transphobia, and capitalism, means much more to us than any risk."
...
Utah Gov. Spencer Cox said on CNN's "State of the Union" Sunday that investigators are also looking into whether the relationship could have been a motive for the alleged shooter, noting the partner, Lance Twiggs, has been "incredibly cooperative" with authorities.
Twiggs, who has not been accused of any involvement in the crime, "had no idea this was happening and is working with investigators right now," Cox told host Dana Bash.
Press X to doubt.
