Ever since the assassination of President Kennedy in 1963, scores of Americans have learned to mistrust “official stories” that seem designed to conceal a passel of conspirators by pointing to a single “lone wolf” shooter as the perpetrator—someone we’ve learned to consider as a “lone wolf patsy.”

That is why the internet is percolating with citizen sleuths investigating the murder of Charlie Kirk.

In the meantime, we’ll soon see if Trump’s FBI is worth its salt. The good news is they are investigating a half dozen or more people who clearly had prior knowledge of the murder based on their online chat on Discord. And I’m assuming Kash Patel will also drag in the four people from the TPUSA event that I’d want hauled in first: the two staffers inside the tent who seemed to be signaling via hand movements seconds before the shot rang out; Hunter Kozak, the young man who asked the question about transgender mass shootings just before the shot; and the man who, right after Charlie collapsed, pumped his fist high in a gesture that echoed one of the alleged Discord chat room posts: “We f – ing did it!”

THE OFFICIAL STORY

It was the kid on the roof with a rifle. Sound familiar?

Only this time it was a Mauser firing a .30-06 caliber bullet.

No sooner was it announced that the shot hailed from a Mauser firing a .30-06 caliber bullet than Citizen Sleuths with extensive knowledge of firearms weighed in: Impossible. Wrong angle, wrong bullet, wrong location. Among the truth-seeking critics: Alex Jones of Infowars; Nate Cornacchia, retired Special Forces Green Beret; former U.S. Marine Zeb Boylin—and scads of others who have firearm expertise.

In a nutshell: they concur that a .30-06 would have blown Kirk’s head off. Says Boylin, a Marine Scout Sniper who taught ballistics classes for five years: “The FBI’s lying. It’s quite literally not possible for the shooter to have been on the roof that they claim....”. And as Nate points out, while guys like him posting on YouTube, etc., are investigating bullet trajectories using “math and Newtonian physics,” the FBI never even locked down the crime scene—which, by the way, UVU immediately paved over.

But here’s something everyone can likely agree on:

There are astonishing parallels to the attempted assassination of Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania: a large public outdoor event; a lone shooter up on an unsecured roof; the target shot at while speaking to the crowd; major failures by an incompetent or compromised security team. It’s almost as if the real perpetrators, whoever they may be, are saying to the President: We may have missed you in Pennsylvania, but we’ve just taken out your right-hand man in Utah.

It only took the FBI 33 hours to track down Charlie Kirk’s alleged assailant and launch the official story, with Tyler Robinson named as the patsy…I mean assassin.

THE PLOT THICKENS

It almost seems like a point of pride for the FBI and assorted Deep Staters to obfuscate mass shootings and assassinations whether they gain anything by it or not. Why, for example, did they need for Thomas Crooks to be the guilty party in Butler, PA rather than Antifa member Maxwell Yearick, whom a number of citizen sleuths have outed as the sniper—at least one of them? Is it that We the Peons never deserve the truth?

While "Occam’s Razor" may work as a general principle when searching for the truth, it may offer temptation to ignore complexities in cases of high-profile attempted assassinations and mass shootings in favor of simple answers that may provide a sense of closure. However, since 1963, our own government and media mouthpieces have cried “lone wolf” so many times that most of us disbelieve them now as a matter of course.

Clearly, there’s more to this story than we’ve been led to believe.

SOME REASONS TO DOUBT THE OFFICIAL STORY

• Impossibility it was a .30-06 caliber bullet as that would have blown Kirk’s head off

• The fact that the gaping wound on his neck was an exit wound

• Necessity for the shot to have come from behind Charlie and somewhat to the right to account for the exit wound on his neck

• Transgender shooting question at the time of the kill shot

• Nearby easily accessed roofs of buildings were left unsecured

• The odd behavior of his security team including making hand signals seconds prior to shot

• Brian Harpole, the security team owner, making finger movement as if triggering a device at the very moment of the shot

• Mystery Suspect doing likewise with a two-handed movement, standing to Charlie’s right

• The fact that Brian Harpole, owner of the security group, was smiling as he mimed triggering some device

• The fact that the University immediately dug up the area where Kirk was killed and paved over it

• The fact that videographer and investigative journalist Jason Goodman detected drones at high altitudes in the airspace above the crime scene, as in Butler, PA

• The fact that a Hades spy plane flew very nearby at low altitudes both before and after the shooting

POIROT INVESTIGATES BY PROXY

Clearly, there’s more to this story than we’ve been led to believe, so let’s begin by asking some questions.

Donning my Hercule Poirot chapeau, the first thing I notice is, as Poirot was wont to say, that there are too many clues. Why the Antifa/transgender inscriptions on the bullet casings? Why the question about transgender mass shootings as Kirk was shot? Is it coincidental that Tyler Robinson, the alleged killer, has a “transitioning” transgender male-to-female lover? Why the campus presence of the radical Leftwing group "Armed Queers of Salt Lake City"? Why the cheering of some in the audience when Charlie had fallen?

Now all of that is real and very troubling. But it’s also a narrative, and perhaps a shade too pat under the circumstances. After all, Poirot’s trademark modus operandi is to seek out facts over narrative.

So now we need to consider two main possibilities—make that three: either Tyler Robinson, acting alone out of anger at Charlie Kirk’s Christian stance against transgenderism, shot and killed him; or Robinson acted in collusion with members of the transgender community, some of whom apparently had foreknowledge of the event: or a deeper, more sinister and more elaborate conspiracy has taken place.

And let’s begin with a new premise: Let’s assume that the official story is not only incorrect, but that it is deliberately misleading. That way, we can begin to look for the opposite of what we’ve been told took place.

QUERYING THE OFFICIAL STORY

Why, for example, have we been assured there was no exit wound?

Well, if there’s no exit wound then the gaping hole in Charlie’s neck had to be the entrance wound. That means the shot had to come from Charlie’s left. So we’re going to assume the shot came from the right.

Next: why the insistence that the bullet was a badass .30-06 shot by a kid on an unsecured rooftop 200 yards away, using with his grandpa’s Mauser? For the moment, let’s consider the kid and the Mauser and even the rooftop as window dressing, and zero in on the bullet and the distance involved.

We are asked to believe that the shot came from far away—some 200 yards—and from a bullet that can kill a moose, to explain the damage to Charlie’s body.

So we’re going to assume the opposite: A much smaller caliber bullet but fired at very close range. This could account for the lethality of the shot and the damage to Charlie’s body.

These assumptions open up new possibilities that we can now explore.

THE TWO-SHOT THEORY & JASON GOODMAN’S EXPLANATION

If Kirk was shot at relatively close range on his right side, how can we explain the unmistakable sound of the loud crack-boom from a high-powered rifle?

Enter the two-shot theory.

While many have considered the need for two shots to pull off this baffling assassination, Jason Goodman, professional videographer turned investigative journalist and digital sleuth extraordinaire, has painstakingly unearthed evidence of the kill shot coming from behind Kirk. According to this theory, which I find very plausible, someone, whether Tyler Robinson from a rooftop 200 yards away, or someone else in another location, fired the shot we all heard—but it was not the kill shot. The fatal shot was not supersonic but subsonic, possibly via a silencer, or as Goodman suggests, it was a low-muzzle velocity projectile, likely a .50 caliber PCP round shot from an air-rifle and possibly digitally synced with the supersonic rifle shot fired further away that functioned as a decoy to fit the cover story.

As Alex Jones, along with a number of other alternative media and citizen experts, has opined, Charlie Kirk’s murder was a professional hit. You don’t leave it up to a kid with a screwdriver trying to assemble and disassemble Grandpa’s WWI rifle to make the shot. Assuming the guilty planners were the same ones behind Butler, they likely wanted to be sure they got their target this time. And what better way than with a skilled sniper taking a relatively close-range shot.

Through his meticulous research forensically examining the digital evidence, Goodman believes he has traced the bullet itself through several frames of video, moving in a line from behind Charlie toward the right side of the back of his head. In fact, the technology exists to link shots from two different guns to fire at the same time through a synchronous firing system that includes a transmitter/receiver to communicate with the other firearm(s).

CONSPIRACY CENTRAL

But let’s take a look at a few other popular theories bouncing around the internet:

• An exploding lavalier mic inside Charlie’s shirt killed him, not a bullet

• It was a palm pistol shot by Brian Harpole due to the “trigger-finger” movement of his right hand at the moment the shot rings out

• Charlie’s team made suspicious gestures just prior to the shot implicating them in the plot

• A man wearing black and holding a large camera-gun behind Charlie shoots him and then takes a few steps backwards before turning around and heading out toward the parking lot

While I credit Jason Goodman’s theory as the most compelling I’ve seen, considering these theories, the one I find most plausible is the last, as the location makes perfect sense and camera guns exist, though I don’t know if they fire with the velocity necessary to deliver the kill shot. But there are also oddities and questions regarding Charlie’s team’s actions which we’ll consider shortly.

And I want to add a suspicious occurrence to the list. Take a look at the fellow wearing a white shirt in the photo below holding what looks like a camera up to his eyes. Moments later, when the shot is heard, his hands are clenched together—possibly holding something—and he jerks them up and down in perfect time with the crack-boom. Not only that, but he makes the same sort of movement with two hands that Brian Harpole, on the opposite side of Charlie, makes with one hand at the same exact moment, as the shot is heard.

Now I’m not saying either of these two tried to shoot Kirk—but can it be coincidental that they both seemed to mime that gunshot exactly as it occurred? Why? What were they doing? And how did they know there would be a shot or the precise moment of its arrival?

Another point of interest: TPUSA’s security head, Dan Flood, the man wearing black who appeared to give an arm signal just prior to the shot, and who is Brian Harpole’s associate in his security company Rockhouse Integrity Group—was also present, along with Harpole, at the rally in Butler, Pennsylvania where Trump narrowly escaped an assassin’s bullet. They were there to provide security for Charlie Kirk at the Trump rally.

It’s a small world.

And speaking of similarities between Butler and the Utah Valley University fatal shooting, Jason Goodman, in reviewing enlarged video of the airspace over the campus, discovered several drones above the Utah campus, as he’d found in the airspace over Butler on the day Trump was nearly assassinated.

By now one thing is clear: the similarities to Butler make this investigation a national security issue.

A CLOSER LOOK AT TPUSA SECURITY TEAM

Here’s a quote from Greg Shaffer, founder of Shaffer’s Security, which provided security for TPUSA for 7 or 8 years, till the end of 2022:

The individuals who work for that company [Integrity Security Solutions] were the ones on the stage. Dan Flood headed up security for Turning Point USA, and Brian Harpole is his best friend. Brian worked for me for seven years, and then Brian started his own company and then shorted me on the contract for Turning Point USA. That’s how they got the contract.

From Ken Silva of Headline USA: “When asked whether he had a falling out with Flood and Harpole, Shaffer said with a chuckle: ‘No, just got stabbed in the back by some friends.’”

It’s also worthy of mention that the website for Brian’s company, Integrity Security Solutions, has been scrubbed. No more live links.

Not great optics, guys.

MESDAMES ET MESSIEURS

Here at last is my speculation, Poirot-style.

Mesdames et Messieurs: From the first I was curious about the odd hand movements of security team leader Brian Harpole facing the right side of the stage and Mystery Suspect on the left side. Both seemed to mimic the firing of a gun at the moment when the shot was heard, yet neither could have held such a weapon, and how would they know such a shot would be fired at all, let alone at that moment?

This brings us to the possibility of a low-tech version of the crime.

Shortly before Hunter Kozak, Charlie’s last questioner, came up to the podium, TPUSA security head Dan Flood texted someone on his phone. Innocent, perhaps. But suppose he texted Kozak, instructing him to speak next. It must have been prearranged for Hunter to ask a two-part question to give the shooters time to ready themselves for the shot.

Then comes the signals—possibly one from Turek but almost certainly one from Flood. Frank lifts and replaces his hat and touches his face—innocent, perhaps. But Dan Flood gives a broad arm signal exactly as Charlie speaks his last words on this earth: “Counting or not counting gang violence?” That was also the signal for Brian Harpole and Mystery Suspect to make their hand-trigger movements.

Why?

Because the sniper was on the left side behind Charlie’s tent—the far left side as you face the stage. From there, he couldn’t see Harpole to know exactly when to fire, but he could see Mystery Suspect. And Mystery Suspect could see Harpole. So the signal was sent from Flood to Harpole to Mystery Suspect to the sniper in split second timing. And the man who fired the high-powered rifle could presumably see both Flood and Mystery Suspect from his distant vantage point.

Our killer may have been holding a large camera gun and been near the back of the tent, or may have been under the breezeway further behind the tent, or may have been in the parking lot, even in the hatchback van parked near the tent as Jason Goodman speculates.

We don’t know his name, but since we find an odd overlap involving both the transgender community and TPUSA insiders, we’re looking at an overarching plan larger than either group, and can assume the highest level orchestrators of this open-air public assassination were not present at the Utah Valley University that day.

CLOSING THOUGHTS

The proverbial lone wolf shooter isn’t cutting it anymore. We the People need all the facts of the conspiracy surrounding Charlie Kirk’s death to be investigated and made public, and for those involved to be charged, tried and sentenced to the full extent of the law.

And that means both the “hotblooded” conspiracy that emerged from the transgender/Antifa community, and the possibility of an overarching calculated, “coldblooded” conspiracy perhaps shockingly even involving members of Charlie’s own team.

But regardless of the findings, we already know what entity was behind the hit on Charlie: the MAGA-hating, America-hating radical “Progressive” Left. And the motive? The takedown of America by the One World Government elite globalist cabal, along with their American allies—that’s you, Dems—and assorted RINOs.

And let’s not forget the Deep State.

It didn’t disappear when Trump won the election. And then there’s the phenomenon brilliant writer Joan Swirsky discusses in an article in News with Views: the metamorphosis that often occurs once seemingly honorable men get positions in D.C. The idealistic Jimmy Stewart types à la Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, swiftly morph into clones of corrupt politician Claude Rains. The Deep State powermongers find ways to blackmail, threaten or bribe them into compliance, which may be why Conservative heroes Kash Patel and Dan Bongino seem to be letting us down.

But one thing should now be clear: Deep State elements in our own government participated in, and likely orchestrated, the conspiracy to assassinate Charlie Kirk. Why else would our government be misleading us and engaging in a coverup instead of seeking the perpetrators and pursuing justice?

As Gary Bauer, president of American Values, opines, “The real threat to our Republic comes from the totalitarian Left and its Deep State allies.” Victor Davis Hanson says of Charlie Kirk’s murder, “it was a political assassination.” And as President Trump noted: “The gun may have been aimed at Charlie, but the bullet was for all of us.” What the Left and its Deep State allies have in their crosshairs are the MAGA movement, Conservative patriots, and We the People who love our country.

The enemy is within our gates.
