The federal investigation into the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk has yet to find a link between the alleged shooter, 22-year-old Tyler Robinson, and left-wing groups on which President Donald Trump and his administration have pledged to crack down after the killing, three sources familiar with the probe told NBC News.
One person familiar with the federal investigation said that “thus far, there is no evidence connecting the suspect with any left-wing groups.”
“Every indication so far is that this was one guy who did one really bad thing because he found Kirk’s ideology personally offensive,” this person continued.
In addition, two of the people familiar with the probe said it may be difficult to charge Robinson at the federal level for Kirk’s killing, while the third source said there is still an expectation that some kind of federal charge is filed against Robinson.
Factors that have complicated the effort to bring charges at the federal level include that Robinson, a Utah resident, did not travel from out of state; Kirk was shot during an open campus debate at Utah Valley University. Additionally, Kirk himself is not a federal officer or elected official.
A Justice Department spokesperson said, “The investigation is ongoing and beyond that we decline to comment.”
If the Discord groups he hung out in were leftist or in any way “antifa” they would have been screaming about it this whole time. He hung out in far right meme circles. It looks like they’ve decided on the lone, crazy gunman approach so they can avoid accountability yet again.
but hey! he had a trans roommate or something!
Maybe. That might have also been fully fabricated. Hard to tell anymore.
Will be very funny if all this bullshit FBI efforts to blame someone other than him somehow gets his case thrown out.
Yeah we’ve left the era in which we can trust narratives that are being built, and that’s really fucking bad for everyone. This is especially present whenever claims of trans people come up. History may find out what happened but we won’t know aoon
Yeah, from the stuff posted, it sounds like he used it just like most people do. To have conversations with friends about life and games. But that won’t stop them from continuing to talk about them like they were. It’s all lies all the time.

A) Unless the FBI are totally incompetent they know which Discord groups he was active in. B) They haven’t said anything about them so they don’t support the official narrative they’re trying to create (ie: leftist trans people are responsible). C) The bullet casing memes they released (if they’re real) are used in right wing meme circles (they didn’t understand them which is why they made them public).
I don’t know the names of his Discord groups however. If the FBI ever releases that info then I’ll let you know.

I’ll answer, but only if you’re asking for a friend.
And there won’t be.
This was predicted during the first Trump administration. A MAGAt is primed for violence for ten years & then figures out he’s been lied to and propagandized the entire time. They then use that violence on the very scum that lied to them.
Sometimes the Stochastic terrorism boomerangs.
Exactly. Just like the attempted assassinations of trump
Doesn’t matter the right made up their minds about this the second he was shot.
Since when have the american right ever cared about facts? These guys are all feefees, no brain. Its why every time somebody capitulates to their demands they create a new dumber demand.
But somehow trans people are the terrorists. The Heritage Foundation even cited Tyler Robinson as evidence of “trans shooters”
I know that the apparently had a trans woman mate but was he personally himself trans, I hadn’t heard that. Was it just more made up nonsense.
it’s the trans lady’s fault, somehow.
Don’t worry I’m sure they’ll find some eventually if they just keep looking. The libs are very good at hiding themselves. Sometimes they vote for republicans, that’s a sure sign their liberal, voting for republicans.
It honestly doesn’t matter. Did or didn’t, left right, or corkscrew. If we knew definitively now factually 100% he can conclusively be put into 1 bucket. The facts don’t matter to them. The truth is already in.
To be on their side, you “know” the “truth”.
And if you don’t “know” the “truth”, than by gee you seem awfully suspicious mr…
And if all others accepted the lie which the Party imposed – if all records told the same tale – then the lie passed into history and became truth.

Bullshit. I heard his bestmates’ mothers’ hairdresser’s nephew once changed the oil on a cars transmission.
Checkmate, you murderous loony lefties!!!When I was young, cars were either manual or automatic, none of this in the middle bullshit!
CVTs are a symptom of the woke mind virus
I hate to say this but I feel like nbcnews will be shut down for this article
Man I really thought his steam play history (specifically power washing simulator) was going to reveal some radical left links!
And his “donaldtrump” username.
But we sure are lookin’. Cletus has gotten into generative AI, so we’ll see what comes up.
I don’t know why anyone cares about this kid. He’s the alleged shooter. The feds still haven’t provided anything credible to prove he was the guy, no video of the kid on the roof with the rifle, no bullet, no medical report, weird people in the crowd causing a distraction, tampering of the crime scene, clearly fake text exchange…there are so many more important questions that need answers.
And yet, even with this dude they don’t have a shred of evidence of left-wing involvement.
He had a left hand. Checkmate!
Because the current admin needs someone to pin this on to appear competent and strong because that’s the foundation of their entire worldview. And they need him to fit an ideological profile so they have something to point to as justification as they continue to escalate their response to political dissent.
Case in point: Jimmy Kimmel was taken off the air for deviating from the accepted party line because the FCC threatened ABC/Disney with retaliation.
Clearly fake text exchange… that the other party of the chat admits participating in?
Have you read the text exchange? No timestamp, no confirmation on what platform the exchange even took place on so that the third party could verify their legitimacy, and their exchange just so happens to layout the motive, discussed the murder weapon, uses perfect punctuation, and just flat out sounds weird.
To be real, I have no idea if those messages are fake or not. At this point, nobody but the FBI can vouch for their legitimacy and they don’t have the best track record.
They’ll fabricate something.
forensically
Damn I wonder why this can’t be tied to the left? 🤔 Makes you think
If he was a lefty they would have been rubbing our faces in it day 1, not doctoring social media messages.
They’ll make something up. It’ll be a bad forgery, but they’ll run with it because they’re arrogant.
