Vanity Fair: “Suspect Tyler Robinson allegedly inscribed messages on bullet casings that reference video games and internet culture—but they hardly point toward a coherent ideology.”

Far-right conspiracy theorist Nick Fuentes told his followers, known as “groypers,” that if they turn to violence in the wake of the killing of Charlie Kirk, he will “disavow” and “disown’ them, Mediaite reports.

Said Fuentes: “This is a very delicate situation. This is a very delicate situation. I fear that this has set off a chain reaction. I pray to God there is no further violence. I pray to God that nobody else is hurt as a result of this. I hope that it stops here. It should stop here. To all of my followers: if you take up arms, I disavow you. I disown you in the strongest possible terms.”

“Fuentes and his so-called ‘groyper army’ have long been critics of Kirk, infiltrating his events in the past to troll the speakers and try and turn the crowd toward a more extreme, white nationalist version of conservatism.”

“The 22-year-old university student accused of assassinating MAGA firebrand Charlie Kirk grew up in a staunchly Republican, Trump-backing family,” the Daily Mail reports.

“Tyler Robinson’s grandmother Debbie Robinson, 69, said she is stunned by the charges against her grandson, describing him as a quiet, reserved young man who ‘never’ spoke about politics, despite his father’s staunch Trump support.”

Said Robinson: “My son, his dad, is a Republican for Trump… Most of my family members are Republican. I don’t know any single one who’s a Democrat. I’m just so confused.”

“In the wake of Charlie Kirk’s assassination, right-wing influencers and at least one Trump administration official have actively encouraged people to scour the internet for remarks celebrating the killing and to expose those who have posted them online,” the New York Times reports.

“The widespread and fast-moving campaign of naming-and-shaming has already resulted in countless lost jobs, professional suspensions and internal investigations, exacerbating the already fraught tensions over the shooting that exist online.”

The Intellectualist: “Tyler James Robinson, the man arrested for Kirk’s murder, is listed in Utah voter records as unaffiliated and inactive.”

“He was not registered as a Democrat, not registered as a Republican, and had not cast ballots in recent elections.”

“That clarity matters because it underscores just how quickly narrative outpaced fact — and how dangerous that can be.”
