FBI Director Kash Patel said Tyler Robinson, the suspected killer of Charlie Kirk, wrote a note stating his intention to “take out” the influential conservative activist.

Patel, speaking to Fox & Friends on Monday, said the FBI had “forensic evidence” of the note, but that it had “since been destroyed.”

They have a note but it’s been destroyed. Yeah, nothing fishy about this BS at all and it goes without saying completely incompetent that they continue to leak half baked, incomplete investigative information.

    So I’m supposed to scream for this guy’s head based on a note the FBI found, but destroyed?

    That’s not how evidence works. Who is in charge over there? Oh yeah…

      Our government is, literally, being run by Fox News hosts and podcasters.

      That’s not an exaggeration.

      So no, I don’t believe a fucking thing coming from the federal government right now because they don’t even approach the realm of credibility because they don’t even remotely have the qualifications for their jobs.

    It’s time to move on. Just like all the school shootings that are forgotten about in a couple days, the country needs to get over charlie since they care more about him than the children that are dying.

    Time to focus on how the administration is ramping up efforts to take away our first amendment and arrest people for “hate speech” which has been proven by the supreme court to be protected MULTIPLE times.

    • Yeah I don’t get it either. Innocent little kids are being killed in school shootings and the administration doesn’t bat an eyelid but some right winger who says school shootings are “worth it” is shot and they lose their shit

        I’m convinced it’s because they are doing so poorly at their jobs that they need a media distraction and they will milk this for as long as they can.

        Oh yeah, did anyone see the Fed reduced interest rates today because the trump administration is failing so much, they had to cut it to keep us from a recession?

        Also the government budget is due to be voted on and the government is about to go into a shutdown because the GOP refuses to stop wasting money and they refuse to work with democrats in anyway, shape or form.

        These issues are much more important than some dead fascist who got popular on youtube.

    With Trump’s obsession with infiltrating every branch of the gov and putting in his lackeys I don’t trust anything coming out of it at this point.

    A right winger killed a right winger, at a right wing event, on a right wing university campus, in a right wing city with a right wing mayor, in a right wing state with a right wing mayor and their response is to blame the left. This country is beyond fucked. But the pedos will do anything to push us to total facism and protect the other pedos.

          Then say fascist. That’s much better than some Trump-style “MAGAt” insult. Not all MAGA people are Nazis, but they are all fascists by definition of being MAGA.

            Yes, they absolutely are. They are also traitors, racists, pedophiles, misogynists, incompetent, intolerant, and corrupt. Every single one of them.

            If you support and follow a leader who actively, enthusiastically participated in all those behaviors, then you are as responsible for them as they are. By supporting and voting for Trump, ALL of those supporters get slapped with those same labels.

            Don’t like it? Don’t be MAGA.

            Disagree. If 9 people are comfortably eating dinner with a vocal Nazi and none of them call out the Nazi, there are 10 Nazis in the room. Their behavior certainly quacks and walks like a Nazi as well. If you want to be pedantic, they’re neo-nazis

            (Also I’m not OP)

              Sure, but I’ve seen many instances where MAGA people yelled back at the actual Neo-Nazis. This is all just pedantic now.

      Even if he were motivated by liberal views, his Conservative upbringing taught him to respond with a typical conservative solution - gun violence.

      If he had been raised by liberals, he would have been protesting and writing stern emails, not shooting.

      Liberal or not, conservatives taught him how to behave.

        I’m a little irritated at him. I’m still waiting for my paychecks for promoting leftist views. I’m starting to think that MAGAs have been lying to me about paid protesters.

      Do you really think he hasn’t been talking this whole time? If he said anything supporting the Left, they’d have blabbed it all over the world. They’re just saying he’s not saying anything because what he’s really saying is far-far right stuff.

        For whatever it’s worth the governor said the shooter was being uncooperative. But they are working on and intimidating his roommate that might be a transsexual to agree with whatever bullshit their political leadership demands. I would be skeptical that anything that came out of this transsexual person being worked over by the police in such a hot case.

    “It was kept in the home of the suspect and his alleged transgender partner,”

    Why keep mentioning the transgender thing from just an allegation about someone who had nothing to do with this? These fuckers know exactly what the fuck they’re doing.

      The governor finds a way to put “transgender” in every sentence, and at the same time he deliberately uses the wrong pronouns for this person.

      They’re doing it on purpose, and it is disgusting.
