Lance Twiggs DOWNPLAYS His "Trans" Identity as More Evidence Emerges in Tyler Robinson Case
Episode summary

Megyn Kelly examines explosive developments in the Charlie Kirk assassination case, focusing on testimony from Lance Twiggs, the romantic partner of convicted shooter Tyler Robinson. The episode reveals Robinson's handwritten suicide letter for the first time, in which he confessed to attempting to "take out Charlie Kirk" and apologized to his partner Luna for likely ending up dead or imprisoned. Kelly questions why Twiggs, who previously identified as trans woman Luna and was taking hormone replacement therapy, now appears in court presenting as male Lance and claims he never discussed LGBTQ or political issues with Robinson despite their close relationship. The episode highlights FBI Director Kash Patel's December 2025 confirmation that the bureau is investigating whether members of the trans community had foreknowledge of the September 10th assassination, after multiple social media accounts posted cryptic warnings days before the shooting. One account stated it would be "funny if someone like Charlie Kirk got shot on September 10th," while another with reported ties to Robinson posted "We fucking did it" after the killing. Kelly criticizes Patel's responses as "wishy-washy" and questions whether federal investigators have adequately pursued potential conspiracy angles. The episode also examines evidence linking Twiggs to the crime scene, including his DNA on the towel wrapping the murder weapon and the screwdriver used to assemble the gun, as well as his failure to contact police after being notified of the shooting. Legal analysts Dave Ehrenberg and Viva Frei debate whether Twiggs is minimizing his trans identity to distance himself from a broader conspiracy and discuss the judge's decision to hold an unusually lengthy five-day preliminary hearing.

Charlie Kirk Shooter's Partner Lance Twiggs Downplays Trans Identity During Testimony

Lance Twiggs, formerly known as Luna and romantic partner of shooter Tyler Robinson, testified at a preliminary hearing while presenting as male and claiming he never discussed LGBTQ or trans issues with Robinson. This contradicts evidence that Twiggs was taking hormone replacement therapy and growing breasts. Twiggs' DNA was found on the towel wrapping the murder weapon and on a screwdriver used to assemble the gun on the rooftop, yet he failed to call police even after being notified of the killing.
