Color me dubious. Color me very, very dubious indeed that the assassination of Charlie Kirk was committed by another lone gunman.
The suspect is Tyler Robinson, a 22-year-old man from Washington, Utah. The shooter confessed to his father that he was the perpetrator, CNN reported.
The man’s father then tipped off law enforcement and secured his son until officers arrived. Sources told CNN the individual was still being questioned as of Friday morning.
Trump said that ‘somebody who was very close’ to the suspect turned him in to police – referring to the tipster as the assassin’s ‘minister’ and ‘father’.
‘It was a minister who was involved with law enforcement… his good friend is a top U.S. Marshal – and they took it from there,’ Trump said, suggesting the suspect’s father told him it was time to turn themselves in.
Law enforcement will share more details about the suspect’s arrest later on Friday, the president said.
It’s always possible that the Official Story is true… but history suggests that just isn’t very likely.
UPDATE: Retired Green Beret Nate Cornacchia claims that whoever the FBI arrests as the shooter will likely be just a patsy in a much larger cover-up. He adds that the chances of the arrested individual actually being the real shooter are “slim to none.”
You don’t say…
