Charlie Kirk Conspiracy Theories Are Running Wild
Will Sommer: “I wrote last week about the rise of the conspiracy theories surrounding Kirk’s death, which began to circulate within hours of his assassination. But I didn’t anticipate that the director of the FBI would decide to acknowledge—and thereby elevate—them.”
“But in this modern, Trumpified era of the Justice Department, that’s what happens when major right-wing figures, including Jones and Owens get involved. It doesn’t help matters that Patel (at least according to his critics) seems utterly consumed with his social media clout and how his reputation is faring on the online right.”
“From here, it seems likely that the skepticism about the official narrative of the Kirk assassination will only grow.”
