Breaking news. Tyler Robinson has been named the suspect in the killing of Charlie Kirk. And details surrounding this person are starting to emerge. Kylie put up the first one. Tyler Robinson and his family don't look like trans liberals to me. Tyler's family is registered Republicans. His father is a minister and former law enforcement. They have family members in the military. Oh, and Tyler's parents introduced him to weapons at an early age. Kylie put up these photos individually. Here he is with his father and you notice his father has on kind of that Patriot Maga coated style merch. And here he is, you know, was raised in gun culture, shooting guns. So we knew that the person who shot Kirk would have to have experience. Here he is as a very small child with an assault rifle. This has sadly become a huge part of American culture where kids. Here he is sitting down with a huge weapon. So this fits not the prototype profile of a radical leftist because we don't go to gun shows and take photographs with weapons. This sadly, sadly is what always comes out about these right wing extremists. Gun culture is a huge part of it. Loneliness, radicalization online. The pumps. What did you say? The Utah governor. All this is breaking very quickly. The Associated Press is reporting. What pumps? That he. That Tyler Robinson had become radicalized and got into politics recently and was. Did not believe what Charlie Kirk believed. But it doesn't go into specifics. Okay, and then here's what we know about the shooter called activism is reporting. Tyler Robinson of Utah, his father is a retired sheriff. They're Mormon, they're white. He was raised with guns and shooting. And he wore a Trump costume for Halloween. And you See these same photographs again. Him with his dad and his dad with that kind of patriotic black and white and American flag, all that MAGA coded hyper masculinity style merch. And you see the gun in his hands when he is a small child. And then next up is that within the MAGA movement if somebody steps out of line, they start to inner cannibalize. In two days before the murder of Charlie Kirk, Laura Loomer was calling out Charlie Kirk online. In a since deleted tweet she tweeted that Charlie Kirk had stabbed Trump in the back and didn't have Trump's back. And all of this other stuff, she since deleted it. Now she's gone on that she's going to make a list of all the leftists and liberals and Democrats that she thinks contributed to Charlie Kirk's murder. And in fact what contributed to it is a Republican family that teaches their children about guns at a very young age. And sadly this has become such a part of right wing American culture. And I want to say that this makes me sad. This makes me sad for that family, makes me sad for that kid. Because our politicians have never ever responded to gun violence. We've had president shot. Charlie Kirk has been shot. Hide and watch. What they're going to do after this is they're going to continue on the same path they always continue upon, which is more guns, more accessible all the time. In Oklahoma, where we live, they have vending machines with ammo in them and 7 11s and other type convenience store. I'm not sure if it's a 7 11. I don't want to get that wrong but like convenience stores there are ammo vending machines. Billy Baldwin points out this on Twitter. He's not black. Charlie. Charlie Kirk's killer, Tyler Robinson. He's not black, he's not trans, he's not Muslim, he's not an immigrant. He is not a Democrat. Meet Charlie Kirk's assassin, Tyler Robinson. He is a white, Christian, conservative, Republican male with a gun again. And statistically when all of this was going on, when Fox News started declaring war, when Jesse Waters and Laura Ingram, which recklessly, recklessly tried to rile up their base, that somehow the left was in charge of this. Statistically I knew that this was probably a white male as all shooters are. And this seems to be MAGA grown terrorism. MAGA is a culture that embraces unrestricted access to guns at all times. They want guns to have more rights than women. This is the don't tread on me crowd. This is the crowd that if anybody steps out of line to their dear leader, they get death threats even within their own party. You can go no further than to ask Mitt Romney or John McCain before he died of a brain tumor. This is what happens to anybody who steps out of line with the cult leader. But Fox News and these right wing influencers would have you believe that people like us that want people to have health care, that want a safe place for Charlie Kirk to have gone and done his job. I wanted Charlie Kirk to be able to go do what he wanted to do, even though I disagree with all of the hateful that he says. The world that I want to live in is a place where Charlie Kirk is not shot. And so this what they've done, what Fox News and all of these right wing influencers putting targets on so many liberals backs, they've started a whole website about Charlie's murderers and listing people online and doxing them. And this is a homegrown problem. Donald Trump has the most divisive rhetoric that I've ever heard in my life. I've never heard American presidents speak out against their own citizens. And while all this was going on, these right wing influencers were riling up and Fox News is riling up the base and saying it's all these leftists. The Utah governor also revealed that there's a huge bot farm of Chinese and Russian bots that were in the algorithms owned by all of Trump's supporters. Utah Governor Spencer Cox said Russian and Chinese bots are stoking violence online in the wake of Charlie Kirk's assassination. So when Donald Trump found out that Charlie Kirk had been assassinated, executed, killed in cold blood, he was meeting with architects about his ballroom. Mind you, the night before Vladimir Putin sent drones over a NATO nation, Poland, one would think that American president would have been in the Situation Room the next day, but he was meeting with architects for a vanity project that he has. This is a very serious time. We do not have serious people in charge that care about cleaning up their own political party. And they attack anybody who steps out of line against Donald Trump. And I want to leave you all with Cash Patel at the press conference this morning. And I want to remind everybody that Cash Patel did a podcast before he was the head of the FBI and he wore a shirt that said cash money and he sold Ivermectin and all this other snake oil. And all he did was talk about the release of the Epstein files ad nauseam on this podcast. And that was enough for Trump. And he went hard in the paint For Trump, this guy doesn't care about facts. This doesn't care. The guy doesn't care about truth. He was a Trump loyalist. Is a Trump loyalist. And the FBI has been built off the backs of career law enforcement people. The MAGA Republicans have started a just a smear campaign about law enforcement and they fired people that were career law enforcement people and put cash money Patel in charge of the FBI. That's like pumps in me being in charge of the FBI because we supported Kamala or something. It's insane. All right, play the clip. This is what happens when you let good cops be cops. The FBI and our partners are proud to stand here today together to bring justice to the family of Charlie Kirk. And you know what he's not going to say? What he's not going to say is what a, a objective FBI official would say is we have a problem with domestic terrorism and we have a gun problem and we are getting less and less safe. Children shouldn't be at gun shows holding assault rifles at a young age because then at some point they spend some time online and they get radicalized and they go shoot people in cold blood. This is not a civil soc. This is a home grown MAGA grown incident. And we were wrong. Everybody was wrong. That is trying to rile people up about this. We need to get to the root of the problem. But they don't want to because this administration pardoned all of the January six violent offenders and they have the audacity on Fox News to tell you that the people who want these Trump supporters to have health care and have livable wages and have their Social Security benefits waiting for them, they want to tell you that we're violent and it's. And they're liars. And this is homegrown MAGA as always. All right, we'll be back later on today. Support our show by going click the link below so that we can keep doing this every day.
