'No evidence' found yet of ties between Charlie Kirk's shooting and left-wing groups, federal officials say

[SunSeeker]

Source: NBC News

The federal investigation into the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk has yet to find a link between the alleged shooter, 22-year-old Tyler Robinson, and left-wing groups on which President Donald Trump and his administration have pledged to crack down after the killing, three sources familiar with the probe told NBC News.

One person familiar with the federal investigation said that “thus far, there is no evidence connecting the suspect with any left-wing groups.”

Following Kirk’s shocking assassination, which has sparked a wave of grief, fear and fury on the right, Trump and his allies have threatened to come after left-wing advocacy groups that they saw as fomenting the anger that led to Kirk’s death.

Stephen Miller, the White House deputy chief of staff, said left-wing organizations amounted to a “vast domestic terror movement.” “With God as my witness, we are going to use every resource we have at the Department of Justice, Homeland Security and throughout this government to identify, disrupt, dismantle and destroy these networks and make America safe again for the American people,” Miller said recently. “It will happen, and we will do it in Charlie’s name.”

Stephen Miller makes me want to vomit.

1. Dumb fucks tried to pin it on "the left"

[twodogsbarking]

3. Put that on a hat.

[RazorbackExpat]

8. They're still trying to pin it on "the left"

They're stuck in the '70s when a couple of "leftists" tried to off President Ford, and the Symbianese Liberation Army kidnapped Patty Hearst.

[calimary]

15. They're ALWAYS gonna blame the left.

That’s all they’ve got, and it isn’t even remotely true.

To me, they’re really starting to look pathetic.

[AllaN01Bear]

30. always have been pinning and blameing it on the left.

[Montauk6]

33. ALINSKY!! ALINSKY!! ALINSKY!!!

[twodogsbarking]

2. It has to be there because they are hiding it. Like, well, weapons of mass destruction.

[Lovie777]

4. shithole going to fire all of the federal officials too...................

RWers throwing shit to see what sticks but apparently the only shit that's sticking are RWers' stinky smell.

[kerouac2]

5. They don't say there is no evidence about right wing tie tho

Funny how they are saying they can't find tie to left but aren't mentioning the right, which he seems to have had ties with in the past...

Article does at least mention rw being worse than all other groups combined, along with a graph.

Including this

Since 2002, right-wing ideologies have fueled more than 70% of all extremist attacks and domestic terrorism plots in the United States, according to the Anti-Defamation League.

[LeftInTX]

12. Don't expect anything from this administration

[travelingthrulife]

43. They just can't admit their toxic behavior is the source of these violent right wingers.

Pretty clear the shooter is and was a MAGA type. His gun humping family and his religious training groomed him since birth.

[BoRaGard]

6. Free clue for repube 'officials'

You just might want to check out his right-wing roots which run so damn deep

[sop]

7. Tyler Robinson has been described as being "terminally online," "a guy who plainly had Internet brain poisoning."

Trump's First Amendment crackdown should be directed at social media companies spreading their poison, but that would require going after many of his closest benefactors.

[PuraVidaDreamin]

9. FIRE THEM ALL!

That's what the king will probably order.

[GreenWave]

35. Exactamundo. He will say more Charlie less Epstein!

[LeftInTX]

10. I somehow fell in a rabbit hole over a GOP congressional aide who burned to death on Sunday

Somehow I stumbled on tweets about Charlie Kirk and how his shooter was involved in some Armed Queers group in SLC. No evidence, just that there was an Armed Queers group in Utah and since his roommate was queer and the shooter was armed, he was obviously involved with them.

I think Trump reads this stuff and thinks it's true. Even Sen Mike Lee was retweeting the stuff.

[Bengus81]

11. That's what Kimmel was saying and got fired because of it

No mention of Saint Charlie anywhere.

[FakeNoose]

13. Why do NBC News reporters even talk to Stephen Miller?

It's obvious that Miller has no useful information on this case, and everything he says is total bullshit.

If NBC is going to quote Stephen Miller on anything, they also have a responsibility to fact-check what he says before they publish any of it. This is on you, NBC! Do your job properly or get out of the news business.

The same goes for the other news networks, including Faux Noise.

[Bev54]

16. Stephen Miller IS vomit

[COL Mustard]

18. At least after I vomit

I usually feel better!

[paleotn]

17. They're too stupid to manufacture credible "evidence".

[Bengus81]

32. They know they'd be outed in five minutes which would make it worse for MAGA idiots

[MiHale]

19. Let him waste all his days trying to out ANTIFA...

It’ll be his ‘holy grail’.

[Baitball Blogger]

20. Crazy world we live in. They do the shooting

And we take the blame.

[Gary 50]

21. They don't need no stinking evidence.

Accusations are all the proof they need.

[GiqueCee]

22. Miller is a cancer...

... even his uncle despises him. He's been a despicable, lying sociopath his entire life.

[coffeenap]

23. It was personal.

Kirk was famous for energizing the mean and cruel parts of people. He trained by verbally accosting old people at arts festivals in Illinois while still in high school. I knew him when he was a child, had one off connection to him for many years. He was not nice.

[VTderry]

44. Interesting.

He always struck me as a textbook case of arrested development -- stuck in the know-it-all teenage asshole phase that some boys go through, with a heavy dusting of taking pleasure in the misery of others, in his case.

Those "Prove Me Wrong" banners he used to fly were hard evidence that he never understood how often and thoroughly people did.

[StarryNite]

24. What Miller was really saying was

“We will do everything we can to exploit Charlie’s name. We will milk this for everything it’s worth. To take the focus off the Epstein files and to silence anyone who doesn’t agree with us.”

[GopherGal]

27. I think what he meant was

"We're forging the proof as fast as we can! We've got our best men on it!"

[StarryNite]

29. Yes, that too.

[YodaMom2]

25. No proof of a vast left-wing conspiracy IS proof of a vast left wing conspiracy.

They’re so good at covering their tracks, you’ll never find any evidence. What more proof do you need?

That’s why they never found any credible evidence that the 2020 election was rigged.

And no evidence of climate scientists phonying up studies to benefit “big green energy”.

And nothing credibly linking vaccines to autism.

You can’t prove the left did any of these things because they don’t *want* you to. They’re that diabolical.

What more proof do you need?

In case it wasn’t evident.

[C_U_L8R]

28. Curiously says nothing about Right Wing groups

[republianmushroom]

31. Huh, could be he is just a good old MAGA person with

no ties to a left wing group. More firing if there is no evidence.

[Buddyzbuddy]

34. If Rat Face Miller truly believed in God he wouldn't have

invoked God to witness his his evil lies and activities.

[Gimpyknee]

36. Put the searchers who found "massive" 2020 presidential election voter fraud onto this.

[RedWhiteBlueIsRacist]

37. In his mind, Robinson was making America great again by ridding it of Charlie Kirk.

In a roundabout way, Kirk killed himself, as he was part of the sickness of MAGA-ism. Perhaps, this is what was going through Thomas Crooks mind with his attempt to cut off the head of The Snake.

[usonian]

38. GOP "Think Tank" is on the case. Please hold.

Just a moment.

[Evolve Dammit]

39. The two assassination attempts on Drumpf were registered Repukes. The Kirk assassin was in a MAGAot family.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

40. I hear right wing heads exploding

[J_William_Ryan]

41. "thus far, there is no evidence connecting the suspect with any left-wing groups."

‘Thus far,’ 'yet.’

Nothing this government does can be trusted or believed.

[Abolishinist]

42. doG IS his witness,

so there's that.

Now what doG actually SAW is another matter.
