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 US 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 individuals like him are investigating bullet trajectories using “math and Newtonian physics” on YouTube, the FBI never even secured 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 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”
· 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 accessible roofs of buildings were left unsecured.
· The odd behavior of his security team, including making hand signals seconds before the shot.
· Brian Harpole, the security team owner, is making finger movements 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 start looking for the opposite of what we’ve been told happened.
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 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 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.



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?
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.’


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