Tyler Robinson engraved trans furry meme on bullet that killed Charlie Kirk
"This is the cartridge case that was recovered from the gun. This was in the chamber. Do you notice an inscription or an etching on this cartridge case? Yes, I do. Will you read what that says? Notices bulge. O-W-O, what's? And this and question mark. The engraving is a meme used in transgender and furry subculture, a reference to being surprised by genitalia when someone is dressed up in an animal costume or in drag."
About this episode
Megyn Kelly delivers a blistering critique of the Tyler Robinson preliminary hearing on day five, focusing on Judge Tony Graf's decision to delay ruling on probable cause until September. Kelly, who is covering the case of Charlie Kirk's alleged assassination, condemns Graf as 'feckless' and compares him to Judge Lance Ito from the O.J. Simpson trial, arguing he lacks the confidence to make timely rulings in what she describes as a straightforward case with overwhelming evidence. The episode's central revelation comes from Utah State Bureau of Investigation Sergeant Jennifer Fau Muina, who testified about engravings on bullet casings found in Robinson's rifle. The cartridge used to kill Kirk was inscribed with 'notices bulge, OWO, what's this?' — a meme from transgender and furry subculture. Kelly explains this references surprise at discovering genitalia on someone in animal costume or drag, connecting it to Robinson's relationship with Lance 'Luna' Twigs, his alleged trans furry lover. Twigs testified that Robinson had been engraving bullets up to a month before the shooting, claiming they were for a hunting trip. Kelly criticizes Twigs for downplaying his transgender identity during testimony, noting he appeared in male attire and told investigators he didn't go by 'Luna' as 'an overall thing,' despite Robinson addressing him as Luna in written notes. The host argues the evidence clearly shows Robinson was motivated by hatred of Kirk's views on transgender issues, describing Robinson and Twigs as 'sick losers' who lived in a disgusting apartment where Twigs conducted mold experiments while Robinson sat engraving bullets with messages like 'hey fascist.' Kelly also criticizes schools and the left for normalizing furry culture, calling it a 'mental illness' and 'social contagion.' The probable cause ruling, originally expected this week, will now not come until after summer due to Graf allowing the defense to file briefs, potentially delaying trial until a full year after the victim's death.
