The Federal Bureau of Investigation is investigating social media posts by at least seven different accounts that appeared to indicate foreknowledge of the assassination of Charlie Kirk, according to three people familiar with the investigation and screenshots obtained by the Free Beacon.
The posts—one of which referenced the date of Kirk’s assassination, September 10, more than a month before it took place—were all deleted in the days following the killing.
Several of the accounts appear to belong to transgender individuals, and at least one of them followed suspect Tyler Robinson's roommate, with whom Robinson was allegedly in a relationship, on TikTok.
Another account posted on August 6—more than a month before the shooting—that "september 10th will be a very interesting day." After Kirk’s assassination, the account followed up: "I plead the fifth."
The morbid quip was reposted by an account named "churbum75m (SAW TYLER JUNE 30)," who appears to follow Robinson’s roommate, Lance Twiggs, on TikTok, where Twiggs’s username is "lanclotl."
Minutes after Kirk was pronounced dead, churbum75m posted on X: "WE FUCKING DID IT."
Several of the accounts under investigation appear to be associated with LGBT subcultures. One individual, "Osamu bin Tezuka," used the X handle "@fujoshincel," a reference to a genre of anime that depicts romantic relationships between men.
@fujoshincel Another user, "@NajraGalvz," who had wished death to Kirk and predicted that "something big will happen" when he set foot on campus, had identified as nonbinary on X.
@fujoshincel @NajraGalvz And in a video posted on TikTok the night before the shooting, an individual who appears to be transgender wrote that "charles james kirk…does not know what’s coming tomorrow."
@fujoshincel @NajraGalvz The investigation of the posts comes as the FBI is already examining whether pro-transgender groups knew about Robinson’s plan in advance. That probe, first reported by the New York Post, includes Armed Queers SLC, whose logo features high-caliber rifle bullets.
