Ammunition inside the rifle used to assassinate Turning Point USA Founder Charlie Kirk was engraved with messages of “transgender and antifascist ideology,” the Wall Street Journal reported Thursday, citing a law enforcement bulletin and a source familiar with the investigation.

Kirk, 31,  was fatally shot in the neck while speaking at an outdoor TPUSA event at Utah Valley University in Orem on Wednesday.

Federal investigators recovered the high-powered, bolt-action rifle in a wooded area near the university.

The FBI on Thursday also released photos of a “person of interest” in the murder,  as the Bureau continued its manhunt for the killer, appealing to the public for information. According to Utah Department of Public Safety Commissioner, Beau Mason, the suspect “blended in” with students on campus. The photos show a person wearing a hat, sunglasses and a black, long-sleeved t-shirt that appeared to have a photo of an American flag on it.

The Wall Street Journal’s reporting tracks with what conservative journalist Steven Crowder reported early Thursday.

“This morning my team received an e-mail from officer at ATF,” Crowder posted on X at 7:35 am. He said the email included a screenshot “an internal message describing a weapon and cartridges located by an ATF and other law enforcement near the scene” of the shooting.

Law enforcement officials said Thursday they have made progress in their investigation into the death of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, who was shot to death Wednesday during a turning Point USA event at Utah Valley University.

“We were able to make a few breakthroughs,” Utah Department of Public Safety Commissioner Beau Mason said Thursday morning in a video posted to X.

“Starting at 11:52 a.m. the subject arrived on campus, shortly away from campus. We’ve tracked his movements onto the campus, through the stairwells, up to the roof, across the roof to the shooting location,” he said.

“After the shooting, we were able to track his movements as he moved to the others die of the building, jumped off the building, and fled off of the campus and into a neighborhood,” he said.

He said authorities have contacted residents to collect video from their security cameras.

“We do have good video footage of this individual,” he said.

Mason said the footage would not be released to the public “at this time” unless police efforts to identify the shooter using law enforcement technology prove unsuccessful.

Columbia Students Turn Assassination Into a Punchline– townhall.com
Source Link
Excerpt:

Columbia University’s satirical newspaper, The Federalist, published an article making fun of Turning Point USA’s pro-Second Amendment position just hours after Charlie Kirk was assassinated at an event at Utah Valley University on Wednesday.

The headline read, “Turning Point USA Undergoes Unexpected Ideological Shift, States Second Amendment Actually Not That Important Anymore.”

A mock statement from TPUSA leadership, written by the satirical newspaper, read:

The Turning Point USA leadership team recently convened to discuss the role of the Second Amendment in our propaganda, I mean, education. We’ve decided to reconsider our stance on gun control and personal freedoms. This decision was made completely independently of recent events.

Guns kill people. That is a truth that we have only recently learned. It turns out, ignoring all of those public health experts and grieving parents and nationwide statistics wasn’t a good idea. Our bad!

“In typical conservative fashion, it seems, Turning Point USA only realizes how terrible their politics are when it f**ks with their own lives. Go figure,” the article concluded.

Excerpt:

A new comic book series was canceled after the writer mocked the death of conservative commentator Charlie Kirk.

Kirk was murdered during a stop on his campus tour at Utah Valley University on Wednesday, leaving behind his loving family that includes his wife and two children. Kirk was just 31 years old.

‘We place the highest value on our creators and community and affirm the right to peaceful, individual expression of personal viewpoints.’

On the same day the first issue of DC Comics’ “Red Hood” was released in stores, the company announced it was canceling any future orders of the series. “Red Hood” is a spinoff from the “Batman” universe, with the main character being Batman’s former sidekick, Robin.

In a statement sent to retailers late on Wednesday, DC wrote, “DC Comics cancels existing orders for Red Hood #2 and Red Hood #3, and any orders for future issues of the series.”

“DC Comics will credit retailers for all invoiced copies of Red Hood #1, inclusive of copies that may have already been sold,” the publisher wrote, according to Popverse.

Vance will be accompanied by Kirk’s friends and family.

Vice President JD Vance, who traveled to Utah on Wednesday alongside Second Lady Usha Vance in the wake of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk’s assassination on Wednesday afternoon, will accompany Kirk’s casket and family members back to Arizona aboard Air Force Two.

Vance is expected to meet with Kirk’s family and friends in Utah on Thursday, after which they will all fly aboard Air Force Two to Phoenix with Kirk’s casket, three sources familiar with the plans told NBC News.

Vance published a tribute late Wednesday evening, highlighting the pair’s friendship over the years.

“Charlie genuinely believed in and loved Jesus Christ. He had a profound faith. We used to argue about Catholicism and Protestantism and who was right about minor doctrinal questions. Because he loved God, he wanted to understand him,” Vance wrote in part.

“Someone else pointed out that Charlie died doing what he loved: discussing ideas. He would go into these hostile crowds and answer their questions. If it was a friendly crowd, and a progressive asked a question to jeers from the audience, he’d encourage his fans to calm down and let everyone speak. He exemplified a foundational virtue of our Republic: the willingness to speak openly and debate ideas.”

CNN’s Van Jones Two Days Before the Assassination: ‘Charlie Kirk Is Pure Race Mongering — He Should Be Ashamed’– conservativeroof.com
Source Link
Excerpt:

Monday, during CNN’s “NewsNight” broadcast, host Abby Phillip and CNN contributor Van Jones attacked Turning Point USA’s Charlie Kirk for likening the fatal Charlotte stabbing of Iryna Zarutska to the 2020 George Floyd incident in Minneapolis.

Phillip offered a clip from Kirk’s program where he made the point, which Jones declared Kirk “should be ashamed of himself.”

Partial transcript as follows:

ABBY PHILLIP: So, certain people have been looking for an opportunity to find a case like this, to make a point like this. I want to play, this is Charlie Kirk, why he says this hasn’t gotten a lot of attention.

*BEGIN VIDEO CLIP* — CHARLIE KIRK, HOST, THE CHARLIE KIRK SHOW: A white Ukrainian refugee was murdered just because she was white. Everybody knows that obviously. If a random white person simply walked up to and stabbed a nice law-abiding black person for no reason, it would be an apocalyptically huge national story used to impose national, sweeping political changes on the whole country. Instead, Meghan Basham, no one seems to care when a white woman gets stabbed to death. — *END VIDEO CLIP*

ABBY PHILLIP: When you are mentally ill, you have a hard time knowing that you are mentally ill. But also, I mean, people like Charlie Kirk, Van, they’ve been looking for opportunities to make this some sort of like reciprocal George Floyd situation. And that’s the part that I think he’s almost giving away the game. It’s sad to see a lot of people going along with it.

Trans Writings Of Kirk Assassin ‘Related To Cultural Issues’– thefederalist.com
Source Link
Excerpt:

When facts emerged suggesting the assassin of Charlie Kirk may be yet another deranged Antifa or transgenderism extremist, CNN immediately went to great lengths to cover the murderer’s reported political sympathies.

According to authorities, as reported by the Wall Street Journal, the assassin’s gun contained ammunition inscribed with phrases supporting “transgender” and “antifascist” ideology. In an apparent attempt to hide that information, CNN decided to run with a headline describing the bullets as having been “scrawled with cultural phrases.”

The chyron CNN ran on television said the same: “Phrases Related to Cultural Issues Were Scrawled on Rifle.”

Probably worse is that CNN said the bullets were inscribed with a “range of phrases related to cultural issues” (emphasis added) so it could launder the idea that “it’s not yet clear if they point to a motivation in the attack.” No. The assassin’s likely motivations are quite clear. Kirk was famous for his conservative and Christian views. That would be an obvious top motivator for someone to assassinate him in such a public and deliberate fashion.

Kirk made his life’s work doing something leftists could never do: Have reasoned debate with those who disagree to advance public discourse. He went on college campuses to talk to anyone who wanted to engage. That’s dangerous to the left because they can no longer logically defend their irrational positions. It’s very likely that for this great sin, Kirk was assassinated.

Charlie Kirk and Charlotte slayings ending political correctness– www.washingtonexaminer.com

Excerpt:

Years of looking the other way at Left on Right violence, excusing shootings by mentally disturbed transgender assailants, and shrugging off black on white crime may be ending with the assassinations of conservative political activist Charlie Kirk and Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska.

Fed up with being victims and the political correctness that required silence, pollsters are finding that more are speaking out, and the killings signaled the start of a massive blowback.

“I think what happens is people get complacent, they get comfortable, and then things get bad, and so people are called to action,” said Rasmussen Reports pollster Mark Mitchell.

“Imagine people out there talking about a new ‘white lives matter’ movement,” he said. That “happened just because of the North Carolina killing just in the last two or three days, and it’s completely changed the social media landscape permanently. People are talking in ways they were not talking about a year ago, about black crime statistics and things like that, and then to have this happen on top of it,” he said, pointing to Kirk’s killing in Utah yesterday.

And just like that, there was a White Lives Matter movement. https://t.co/5qW61bYzbm

Charlie Kirk Assassination Proves The Left Needs To Fear Its Rules– thefederalist.com
Source Link
Excerpt:

It was only one day before he was assassinated that Charlie Kirk said in a podcast interview that politicizing murder is often an imperative: “I don’t like politicizing situations like [the murder of  Iryna Zarutska], but it just necessitates it because there are so many dynamics at play here.”

So let’s not pretend for a second that there’s something untoward in talking about Kirk’s death in terms of politics. By definition, the assassination is political. Democrats got us here, and they are to be held to account for it.

Just two weeks ago, I noted Democrat leaders are increasingly using language in public indicating raw bloodlust, as when Democrat National Committee Chairman Ken Martin said he was “sick and tired of this Democratic Party bringing a pencil to a knife fight,” and that Democrats “cannot be the only party that plays by the rules anymore.”
