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 they had that evidence, but they no longer have it, but “trust us” they had it and it was real?

    As a (former?) Mormon, I hope he can appreciate the irony…

    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.

    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.

      I don’t think Robinson really fits neatly into a categorisation.

      Its hard to know what reporting I’ve read is accurate, and which isn’t, but he seems like a person with a complex story.

        With the way Trump and his fellow pedos are controlling and threatening the media, the vast majority of what is being released my the media is probably inaccurate at best.

    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.

    Shooter was a MAGAt from a MAGAt family. Left a note saying what he was going to do. So the 'government"'s response? Oh we gonna crack down on the left’s violence and make it illegal to be a Democrat!

      …can we all stop with the dumb insults like “magat”? It’s always so cringey. That honestly sounds like something a MAGA idiot/Russian agitator bot would say.

          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.

            Not all MAGA people are Nazis,

            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.

                Nobody should treat treasonous Nazis reasonably. They will certainly not treat us reasonably when the time comes.

            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.
