Thank God you have written this. The leftist lies about Charlie's martyrdom are predictable and to be expected from such disregulated and malicious operators but the lies from rightists like Candace and Milo are cancerous.

Where is the proof or evidence that they are not lies?

Thanks for the details.

The general (left) media and a lot of Tik Tok racist weirdos are sickening —especially in their mockery of Erica Kirk, though the right wing media loonies (like Candace Owen-ugh!) are as bad. There are so many trolls out attacking conservative news. The left wing trolls have even been flooding Citizen free Press with CNN & NBC & other BS media slanted stories. And mainstream media still won’t report Antifa as a terrorist group. Though Candace Owen (and her fans) have gotta to be called out as particularly low life form of bottom feeders— Candace apparently rakes in $10 million a year slandering people with disgusting allegations.

I strongly agree with this, and I hope you have the opportunity to declare it to a wider audience. The US experienced many periods of wild, radical violence by cultic groups espousing irrational, pseudo-religious doctrines. I have a certain maternal pride about you and what you're doing Andy. After all, as an openly gay man, you could dismiss the religious right and quite a lot of what Turning Point stands for. I wish they could expedite the trial, as the evidential proof of guilt is more than clear. The big question I can't figure out is why so many are following the conspiracy theories? Since I have no answer, I have to allow myself to enter holiday mode, write cards, enjoy how snow changes the landscape and contain how much space the mob occupies in my mind!

Wow ngo, I thought you looked at the FACTS. You should NEVER be a jurist or journalist. Your article just spews the government's bs talking points from their press conference.

Have you even asked one basic question to question their narrative?

Charlie asked questions and wanted the truth. We all want the truth and I and many, many others don't want Tyler hung for something there is no EVIDENCE he was even on the campus that day. And please don't tell us that parts of videos of some person walking or jumping off a roof is Tyler.

He didn't put a rifle together, rescope it, shoot a bullet that would have blown a deer's head off, change clothes, after taking apart the rifle then jump down.

The texts are bs. Tpusa is just money laundering companies - see their audits! The changed stories of jeff Blake, Mikey McCoy.

You should be the first person to not trust our government not the last.

Talk about a lack of evidence, you present zero evidence against the actual evidence.

Why couldn’t he put together a rifle on a roof? He threw it in the bushes, he didn’t sit around disassembling it.

You don’t like the texts because they are too good as evidence? Ok.

Brilliant line, Andy: "What’s most dangerous is how this nonsense drowns out the real threat: the escalation of left-wing political violence." So candace owens strarts it, draws in tucker and then others get drawn into the fray...and though some say otherwise, it's all for views, notoriety & cash, whether you're for or against the instigator, candace. It's disgusting what they're doing to Charlie's legacy and his family. And these sharks claim to have been a good friend of Charlie's. But they cant wait until information comes out, while the body was not even cold, their evil mouths were going on and on like lunatics. Maybe the conspiracy theories are correct, but the chances are we will never know the whole truth for decades because NO ONE HAS ANY PROOF/EVIDENCE INCLUDING CANDACE WHO HAS BEEN SAYING SHE GOT RECEIPTS...yet she hasn't produced anything. Until you can name names, until you have actual evidence just shut up. But they won't, esp. candace because she's gone off the rails big time. And she's mean, she's no friend of Charlie's. I followed her for years, but no more. May GOD's righteous judgment come quickly for all those haters who claim to be supporters of Charlie Kirk. RIP in glory, Charlie.

Andy,

I can agree with most of what you have written, but this is how street detectives work. The smoking gun in all this is the 30.06 round. I have shot many of these rounds, and the damage they do to deer is devastating. Shattering bones and going right though the animal. If a 06 round hit Charlie in the neck it would have severed his spine and flew out the other side. He would have nearly been decapitated. Instead we wait for an autopsy that has not been released because it would show something they don't want us to see? Why hold off? Because a judge was replaced and the new judge slapping a gag order on the entire case. Fanning the flames of conspiracy. Why do an complete clean up of the podium, pouring new cement? Why? The harvest festival shooting in Vegas had the FBI completely removing all evidence of the shooting. That is not their job, but they did a complete cleanup of the festival grounds. Bodies were quickly cremated. Like 911, no real investigation was needed because they already knew who did it and needed to remove evidence. Its the same method used over and over again by the FBI. You miss Turning Points fiasco of millions spent without a trace. This story has far wider implications that a trans shooter. Ballistics alone will tell you that Charlie was not shot by a 30.06. Ask any hunter.

I think entertainment content has made Americans generally too conspiratorial in their thinking. Trials and due process should be sacred, and we've seen what happens when judges don't control cases well. There are good reasons why a judge may issue gag orders. Some want tight control on a case in the pre-trial process. It can become a circus otherwise. Consider how poorly the pre-trial process went for Derek Chauvin in the George Floyd homicide case.

I don't agree that being quiet on the Kirk assassination is similar to the other examples. There is a suspect in custody and the process leading up to trial has to be protected. I do think there should have been more transparency on other cases that would have no trial because of the suspect being dead.

I hope people make the effort to go to Robinson's trial if he doesn't plead guilty. The public would benefit to learn more about how the criminal justice system works.

Watching this unfold I can better understand how the Nazis found people who were willing and happy to staff the death camps.

Has the possibility of accomplices been found moot? That has been my concern since I read the report about the Discord Chat prior to the assassination.

It's an open investigation. Authorities will not confirm whether lines of inquiry are closed or not.

Nick Fuentes has gone scorched earth on Candace Owens, Ian Carrol and others over this.

His last few podcasts sum up the insanity quite well.

Candace Owens has become the tabloid, National Enquirer of podcasts and she has drawn in millions.

Sad.
