Charlie Kirk Assassin, Leftist Tyler Robinson Lived With Transgender Partner, FBI Confirms

New information has come to light regarding Tyler Robinson, the 22-year-old suspected of killing conservative activist Charlie Kirk.

FBI officials say Robinson lived with a transgender partner who is now assisting investigators.

FBI Confirms Relationship

I’ve been following this case closely, and it seems Robinson was living with someone in Saint George, Utah. From what I understand, his roommate is a transgender woman, and they were in a romantic relationship. Thankfully, she’s been fully cooperative with the investigation, which is a relief to hear.

I’m hearing that someone close to the person allegedly planning the attack has been fully cooperating with the FBI, and they genuinely had no idea anything like this was going to happen. Thankfully, they’re not being accused of any wrongdoing at all.

EXCLUSIVE: FBI senior officials confirm Charlie Kirk’s assassin Tyler Robinson was in a “romantic relationship” with the transgender partner.

Officials confirm the unnamed person is cooperating with the FBI.

How the FBI Zeroed In

According to reports, the FBI recovered text messages and other communications that identified Robinson as the shooter. Computers and other evidence seized from his apartment are being analyzed at Quantico.

During the 33-hour search, FBI Director Kash Patel authorized the release of surveillance images of the suspect. The suspect’s father, a 27-year veteran of the Washington County Sheriff’s Department, saw the images and, after talking with a minister, turned his son in to authorities.

Evidence and Ammunition

Investigators found that Robinson used a bolt-action rifle in the attack. Utah Governor Spencer Cox stated that ammunition recovered with the rifle had anti-fascist messages, including engravings on one spent and three unused casings believed to be related to the video game Helldivers 2.

Tyler Robinson was a leftist not a ‘groyper’

Immediately following the assassination, several news outlets tried to connect Tyler Robinson to the conservative “groypers” movement, suggesting he supported far-right beliefs.

However, The Wall Street Journal reported that Robinson actually held strong leftist beliefs, contradicting earlier claims.

I noticed something interesting while following this story. Initially, the *Daily Mail* quoted a friend of Robinson’s who described him as pretty liberal – apparently, he was the only one in his family who leaned that way. But those comments mysteriously disappeared from the article not long after other publications started focusing on this ‘groypers’ angle. It makes you wonder if the initial portrayal didn’t quite fit the narrative they were building.

The Assassination

Charlie Kirk, the 31-year-old founder of Turning Point USA, was shot Wednesday while speaking at Utah Valley University in Orem. He was responding to a question about transgender mass shooters when a single shot fired from about 200 yards away hit him in the neck.

Kirk, a husband and father of two, died at a local hospital. President Donald Trump confirmed his death and announced that Kirk will receive the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
