It's starting; I warned of this a couple of days ago;

The Federal Bureau of Investigation is investigating social media posts by at least seven different accounts that appeared to indicate foreknowledge of the assassination of Charlie Kirk, according to three people familiar with the investigation and screenshots obtained by the Washington Free Beacon.

The posts—one of which referenced the date of Kirk’s assassination, September 10, more than a month before it took place—were all deleted in the days following the killing. Several of the accounts appear to belong to transgender individuals, and at least one of them followed suspect Tyler Robinson’s roommate, with whom Robinson was allegedly in a relationship, on TikTok.


They want to gin up continued outrage toward Trans folks, and go after any organization or funding that promotes left wing opposition to Trump. They'll declare what ever they want "hate speech", and seek to stifle and silence dissent.

5. I struggle to believe anything that they release; but if those social media posts are real, they should be investigated.

but like you, I'm highly skeptical of anything this clown show says. But notice how they highlighted the accusations of a number of them being trans? Has sexual identity ever been a key factor before, relevant to an investigation?
