FBI Probing Posts Alleged to Indicate Foreknowledge of Kirk Assassination

The FBI is scrutinizing online accounts alleged to have signaled some awareness of Charlie Kirk’s assassination before it occurred.

Multiple accounts on X and TikTok identified by the Washington Free Beacon are “being looked at,” a source familiar with the FBI’s investigation confirmed to The Epoch Times.

Suspect Tyler Robinson, 22, was apprehended after allegedly shooting and killing Kirk at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah.

According to screenshots highlighted by the Washington Free Beacon, one post from an X account with the handle “@TallyHallAlbum” mentioned the date of Kirk’s assassination—Sept. 10—on Sept. 3, stating that a shooting of Kirk on Sept. 10 would “be funny.”

Another X account, @altulige, wrote on Aug. 10 that “september 10th will be a very interesting day.” It followed up after the assassination with a quote-tweet of the previous post, writing, “I plead the fifth”—an apparent reference to the Fifth Amendment’s protection against self-incrimination.

An X account that reposted the quote-tweet, which went by the name “churbum75m (SAW TYLER JUNE 30),” has a near-identical handle to an account on TikTok that appears to follow Robinson’s roommate, Lance Twiggs, who appears to have posted on TikTok under the handle lanclotl.

The Epoch Times has not independently examined the screenshots and accounts highlighted by The Washington Free Beacon.

When contacted by The Epoch Times, the Justice Department did not confirm whether any individual or individuals behind the accounts have been contacted or interviewed by law enforcement or have charges pending. The department directed The Epoch Times’ questions to the FBI, which did not have any further comment.

On Sept. 13, the FBI confirmed to The Epoch Times that Robinson resides with a transgender partner who is transitioning from male to female.

Utah Gov. Spencer Cox stated that was the case to CNN’s Dana Bash on Sept. 14, saying the partner had been “very cooperative.”

The partner “had no idea that this was happening and is working with investigators right now,” Cox added.

On Sept. 12, Cox told CNN’s Anderson Cooper that the shooting involved “one person” with “no one else involved.”

In a Sept. 15 appearance on Fox News, FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino told Garrett Tenney that his agency and local authorities were investigating whether the assassination reflected the efforts of multiple parties acting in coordination.

“We have a lot of technical capabilities, a lot of good investigative capabilities, where we can scrub that entire network,” he said, predicting the FBI would be “dropping a lot of paper, a lot of subpoenas” to assess “if there was any extended network.”

Robinson will make his first courtroom appearance on the afternoon of Sept. 16.

Cox told Bash that more evidence bearing on Robinson’s motive would come out once charges are filed on that date.
