Mr. Kirk, a close ally of President Trump, was shot while speaking at Utah Valley University. The authorities were still searching for the shooter, with no one in custody.
Charismatic
What fucking universe are the NYT living in? This counts as sanewashing.
Deception is technically a Cha skill I guess
The universe where Kirk OBJECTIVELY has millions of followers. That’s right, your favourite and mine: the worst possible timeline!
ITT: young white males deny reality
It’s the same people who thought Matt Gaetz would be a good babysitter.
There sure are a lot of prominent Republicans who have fucking weird looking faces. Gaetz, Greene, Trump, Vance, and formerly Kirk.
It wouldn’t surprise me one bit if the assassin was a right wing conspiracy nutjob who thinks he’s targeting lizard people.
lol. Then I strongly support the assassination of the lizard people!
One where they are wise and intelligent writers whose opinions people should care about
So, yeah, they’re all completely fucking delusional
Liberals have a crush on fascists
if he simply hides inside of the Epstein files they will never find him.
I’ve had open wounds that had more charisma.
How is the search going?
Someone on mastodon said “Imagine the shooters name turns out to be Mario.” Like holy shit, that would finally break me.
Or imagine if this was actually the guy who saved us from the United healthcare CEO, and Luigi was really framed.
That would be comic book levels of awesome. We already have comic book villains IRL so it’s not that far fetched.
fuckin hell, i needed this. lmao this gave me a good wheeze
How is there not tons of images of the suspect not being pushed to public yet. There had to have been multiple security cameras on them at the time. Seems like they are waiting to find the “suspect” that will do the most damage to the left as possible.
Because it was on a college campus and the shot came from over 200 yards away. That is a highly skilled marksmen.
Have you ever had trouble accessing a building on a college campus?
This was premeditated. Whoever pulled that trigger knew they were gonna have to blend in before being invisible before blending in again.
Well probably know roughly what building and floor the shot came from sometime today. We’ll find out it was a building anyone could get into and didn’t have excellent surveillance, was under construction, or was otherwise vacant.
university/college campus buildings are notoriously easy to get into. Doors unlocked pretty much 24 hours, Libraries open late, etc. I mean hell I’d still go to my University library and student lounge areas well after I graduated late at night to do work because the wifi was excellent and…no one bothered you. One night I even passed out and fell asleep in the lounge and no one woke me up. Plus Campus Police are like a middle ground between security guards and actual cops.
So a dude rolling in to one of the buildings from like 200+ yards away to set up a shot with a rifle doesn’t surprise me at all. It was a pretty good shot too if you saw the video so they had time. Probably had a decent amount of time to slip out also.
Yep, I agree, and it sounds like they think he got there only 20 or so min before he took the shot. He knew exactly where they were setup and what he needed to do.
Is 200 yards skilled?
This is America, so I’m assuming y’all have better marksmen than me and that’s not even a moving target. That’s sub 200m shot, if you’ve got a stable firing position that’s really not that bad.
Yes, obviously it is “skilled” as in the person has had to develop specific skills taking at least hundreds and probably thousands of hours to have the capacity to do that. No one was saying it was a world record shot.
200 yards would be a pretty normal deer hunting shot, remember that people use scopes. Something actually impressive would be more like a mile. (1760 yards)
Literally every veteran could make that shot with iron sights. We had to qualify on 200 yard targets. With a scope, you could probably include every hunter in the US as well. 200 yards isn’t a long shot.
Oh yeah, and every single Girlscout or Bouscout that has their archery badge, or their shooting badge, not marksman that’s a different badge, would be able to make that shot.

Whoever killed Kirk will have no problems finding dozens of people who will swear up and down that he or she was at a party somewhere else.
Nobody killed him. His neck kinda just did that
If it’s a true assassination attempt the body has ways of shutting all that down
I understood that reference
What was he wearing?
agreed, his neck just dissected on its own when he twisted his neck. it happens all the time.
I offer my full-throated agreement.
People still starving amidst record unemployment. Way to set your priorities, america.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
