President Donald Trump said Friday that the suspect in the Charlie Kirk killing has been captured.

“With a high degree of certainty, we have him,” Trump announced in a live interview on Fox News Chanel on Friday morning.

Trump said a minister who is also involved with law enforcement turned in the suspect to authorities.

“Somebody that was very close to him said, ‘Hmm, that’s him,’” Trump said.

Not his usual bluster "I hope he's found guilty" and "I hope he gets the death penalty.


Not at all like his usual pronouncements.

news moves fast

looks like a whole MAGA family. it's Utah, after all. Very religious, natch. Hunters. Certainly not a trans lefty.

More like a Civil War between two factions of Christian Nationalists. Groypers and Turning Point USA. Lovely.
