FBI Director Confirms Investigation Into Trans Community Foreknowledge of Charlie Kirk Assassination
What was said
"That is most definitely under investigation. And we've disclosed a lot of that to the prosecution, or all of it that we have. And they've made some of it public to include that he was in a relationship with an individual who was part of that community and that he was engaged in communications with other individuals in that community."
FBI Director Kash Patel confirmed in a December 2025 interview that the bureau is investigating whether members of the trans community had advance knowledge of Charlie Kirk's assassination. Multiple social media accounts posted cryptic messages days before the September 10th shooting, including one stating "it'd be funny if someone like Charlie Kirk got shot on September 10th" and another warning to "check the news" with a winking emoji. One account with reported ties to suspect Tyler Robinson posted "We fucking did it" after the killing.
