lol It’s so obvious that they’re starting this investigation with a “conclusion” and they’re trying really hard to make it fit.
I'm just shocked that despite that, they seem to actually at some level be admitting the evidence doesn't fit the narrative. I would have fully expected them to try, fail, then just make something up without ever making a peep that the narrative may have been off.
Literally not true.
How so?
How is it obvious they already have a conclusion in mind?
Lmao did you happen to see the president's speech right after it happened (not to mention the sentiment of basically his entire cabinet)? Are you honestly saying him and his cabal didn't already pin this on a particular group of people before looking at any actual evidence or even waiting for there to be any actual evidence?
The president yes, his cabinet yes. The FBI, not as far as I’m aware. Could you share it.
The governor stated he was left wing. Citing evidence that Patel gave him that is now sounding falsified.
I’m just saying to me it sounds like you’re being no better than the republicans and running with baseless theories.
We will see when he’s convicted and shown to be motivated by his own morals and not so much politics.
I'm genuinely curious. How is this in any way a theory?
The day it happened the president said:
Days later he said:
Vice President JD Vance on a podcast right after the murder said:
Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller when asked about "the radical left" just after the murder said:
“It is a vast domestic terror movement, with god as my witness, we are going to use every resource we have at the Department of Justice, Homeland Security and throughout this government to identify, disrupt, dismantle and destroy these networks and make America safe again for the American people. It will happen, and we will do it in Charlie’s name.
Attorney General Pam Bondi just after the murder was asked "who killed Charlie Kirk" to which she answered:
Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins recently stated:
(All emphasis my own)
I could go on (and on and on) but this is so astoundingly clear who they are blaming for this and not only that, but for basically all of the violence in this country. It's not conjecture. It's not a theory. They are straight up saying it... An investigation may or may not prove that a certain group carried this act out or any others but that has absolutely no bearing on who they are very clearly blaming right now. I mean do you really, truly think this is some kind of conspiracy theory that people just made up??
Yet the last article I read said they found no indication he was on the left.
Yes they might have jumped the gun, but the FBI is being honest here and I don’t see why such outrage about what they’re supposedly going to do when they’ve said the opposite.
Just trying not to be the left wing version of r/conservative. Sadly that shipped has sailed here it seems.
They have yet to back off this narrative. And even a retraction isn't ever read. I feel like you are just arguing in bad faith here.
Don’t see how I’m arguing in bad faith. Literally all this thread has been me saying the last statement from the FBI was that no link to left wing ideology.
Thats it.
But that's the point. The entire administration started out from the conclusion as soon as it happened. That's what people heard. It makes people think it was the "violent left" that did it no matter the facts
Yes the admin said that. The last report from the FBI said no indication of that. So I don’t see how that means the FBI has a conclusion already.
If you don't think the head of the FBI stating this means the FBI stated this then idk wtf to tell ya.
