        On September 11, 2025, The Wall Street Journal issued a caution regarding its earlier report on an internal law-enforcement bulletin concerning the fatal shooting of Charlie Kirk. The bulletin had mentioned ammunition found near the scene with “transgender and anti-fascist ideology” engravings, but the Justice Department indicated the report might not accurately reflect the messages on the ammunition as the probe was in its early stages.

        This is statement from the WSJ

    The backpedaling on the WSJ’s lie has begun:

    It was an inside job by a professional. There were two guys doing umpire signals to his immediate right. King pedo Karen just wants an excuse to declare martial law

    “transgender ideology” is not a thing. That’s the type of shit transphobes pull out of their ass when they’re trying to attack trans folks

      I think transgender ideology is “we’re human”.

      It’s fucking wild that the Right can be opposed to human rights and anti-fascism and millions of people are somehow still gaslit in believing they’re the good guys.

        It’s this exact point for me. “Antifascist” is being taken at face value and simultaneously being tarred as antisocial rhetoric. What the actual fuck has gone on? If the belief that “antifascist” is a cover or a dogwhistle, then shouldn’t you attempt to separate their political orientation away from those words? “They aren’t antifascist. They are political dissidents claiming all of their political enemies are ‘fascists’.”

        Instead, we have: “No, they ARE antifascists and they are our enemies!” Why did we let them stigmatize the word “antifascist”?

    Well, we got images of the primary suspect today, so I’m guessing we’ll get more pics soon.

    Here’s what I think we know so far:

    I’m guessing the perp isn’t a student there, otherwise they would’ve been able to get a name from school records.

    I guess we’ll see how close I am, but in the meantime, I hope these sources are of interest to others.

      According to the WSJ there was just one spent round still chambered and three more in the magazine. So, still really stupid sounding as a theory but it’s at least internally consistent.

    This false flag operation is insanely piss poor. It’s like they were all sat in a room and told one of them was going to be scarified to initiate a civil war and here is your rhetoric start immediately saying the exact same thing.

    And who has the most to gain? Couch fucker picking off his presidential rivals…
