The Daily Beast: "Charlie Kirk Sniper’s Ammo Has ‘Trans Ideology and Anti-Fascist’ Engravings: Cops"

Christ. Could this possibly be true and God knows what the consequences will be.

The claim was made about some other previous shooting and turned out to be bullshit.

by Anonymousreply 1September 11, 2025 5:03 PM

How convenient.

by Anonymousreply 2September 11, 2025 5:05 PM

Yes it "could" be true, but it's probably not.

The shooter was probably hired by MAGA Inc. to create a false flag, and that's why he was allowed to get away. Now they can make up all kinds of bullshit like this.

What are you referring to? In the last case, the perpetrator themselves made a video and posted it online showing the words they had written on the weaponry.

The suspect doesn’t look trans. And what is the meaning of that shirt he was wearing?

The only “Trans” the shooter had an opinion on was Transjordan.

MAGA has focused on trans for every mass shooting. There have been 4 trans implicated mass shootings in the last few years but over 1000 white straight men

If Kirk was hit because he was ranting about release the Epstein files, it seems obvious they are trying to copycat off the Minneapolis shooter. It's something they would do. Apparently Kirk had aspirations to run for POTUS and had a huge organization with "chapters" all over the country. I don't like violence. And this kind of shooting with all its political implications is very provocative because the sheeple who support Trump are going to assume it came from the Left. If this is promoted assome kind of Trans shooting, we are going to see widespread persecutions harassment and violence towards Gays and Trans.

by Anonymousreply 11September 11, 2025 5:26 PM

R11, no, it won’t be gays. Trans are the ones they’re now debating banning getting guns.

by Anonymousreply 12September 11, 2025 5:31 PM

Of you can't see that the accusation of the shooter being "trans" is part of the GOP's demonization of trans people and the obvious attempts by the right to incite violence, you're probably a huge neo-nazi shitstain.

by Anonymousreply 13September 11, 2025 5:33 PM

Just riffing on what R11 said: if he was that popular and toying with the idea of running for POTUS, wouldn't Thiel and co. be interested in clearing the path for Jaydine?

by Anonymousreply 15September 11, 2025 5:35 PM

Executive summary: bullshit.

Per Glenn Thrush, this is a claim in a "preliminary report cirulated within the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives."

"But a senior law enforcement official with direct knowledge of the investigation cautioned that report had not been verified by A.T.F. analysts, did not match other summaries of the evidence, and might turn out to be misread or misinterpreted. In fast-moving investigations, such status reports are not made public because they often contain a mixture of accurate and inaccurate information."

In other words, it's something ginned by the MAGA dimwits embedded in federal enforcements agencies and then improperly leaked.

The WSJ's claims have not been verified. The NYT has disputed them.

Isn’t it interesting how whenever there’s a school shooting the right says it’s a false flag operation as not to stir up talk of gun regulation.

When something bad happens to someone on the right we now say it was a false flag in order not to have to think about it too carefully.

Conspiracy ruins counter to common sense. I never thought we’d be so divided so that any common ground in the center is eliminated. We can’t go on like this.

by Anonymousreply 22September 11, 2025 5:49 PM

Well, R22, their problem is that the left is grounded in facts, evidence, and science; the right is grounded in superstition, belief, and feelings. You're right, it can't go on like this, but not for the reasons you suggest. The right will eventually run face-first into facts, evidence and science (think of Covid) while the left will run face-first into the whirling blades of the right.

Thanks for the kind reply, R23.

That someone found a gun and bullets in a nearby forest in Utah means nothing. You don't have to travel far or wide in Utah to find a hunting rifle, especially when planted near the scene of a political shooting in which one side really [italic]really[/italic] wants to implicate the other.

If true, I’m giving into my first impulse which is screaming inside job!

Only a MAGAT would be stupid enough to put messages on ammunition. It’s a set up and Kirk was a sacrificial lamb.

R28 I think Charlie was a sacrifice as well to unite a divided base. I must say I was one who wasn't buying into the fakery of Butler, just because someone was actually killed. Now I am questioning all of that because blowing someone's head off just to get people to stop fighting over Epstein Files and come together in that mass rage that works so well seems completely plausible. Kirk and Fuentes, Turing Point USA and Groypers going at it. Charlie was either hit by the administration OR another far right extremist group.

by Anonymousreply 31September 11, 2025 6:58 PM

Maybe the shooter is connected with one of those off grid militia groups in Idaho...he could be hiding out up there

by Anonymousreply 32September 11, 2025 7:06 PM

Guys, Trump had him killed because he kept on him about the Epstein files.

Trump is having people killed for disloyalty.

Right, r33.

Actually, Kirk was an obedient servant on Epstein. He dropped it like a hot potato when it became clear that Trump was behind the cover-up.

He dropped it when Trump told him to.

REALITY CHECK FOR OP AND ALL THE OTHER 'VIOLENT LEFT" SHILLS

REALITY CHECK FOR ALL THE" VIOLENT LEFT" SHILLS

The man who targeted and killed Democratic State Representative Mellissa Hortman was a Trump Supporter.

The man who targeted the home of Democratic Gov Josh Shapiro was a Trump supporter.

The men who wanted to hang Mike Pence on Jan 6 were Trump supporters.

The man who targeted and killed the son of Obama appointed Judge Esther Salas was a Trump supporter.

The man who tried to kidnap Nancy Pelosi and assaulted her husband in their home was a Trump supporter.

The men who were convicted of trying to kidnap Gov Gretchen Whitmer were Trump supporters.

The man who sent pipe bombs to the homes of Obama & Biden was a Trump supporter.

There is no equivalent or even similar list of Obama or Biden supporters who have carried out similar murders,attempted murders or violent attacks.

So far the FBI has arrested not one but two people who had no connection to the crime, plus they can’t recognize a manufacturer’s stamp on a bullet. We’ll all sleep soundly tonight I’m sure.

That’s not what the clips stated in the tweet you linked to. The WSJ added an update to the story, stating the some officials later in the day cautioned against reaching conclusions from the preliminary report. That’s standard law enforcement language.

by Anonymousreply 52September 12, 2025 1:56 AM

They're blaming "The Left" and they don't even have a suspect in mind let alone in custody.

They sound like some of our trolls always using "The Left" as their boogeyman with no evidence. Weird coincidence I'm sure.
