FBI Director Kash Patel says investigators have found DNA evidence linking alleged Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson to the scene of last week's shooting.

Patel made the statement during a Monday morning appearance on "Fox & Friends," saying the suspect's DNA was found on a screwdriver as well as a towel that was wrapped around the firearm believed to have been used in the shooting.

"I can report today that the DNA hits from the towel that was wrapped around the firearm and the DNA on the screwdriver are positively processed for the suspect in custody," Patel said.

Authorities say Robinson jumped off of a roof before fleeing Utah Valley University's campus moments after the shooting. They say he then ran through a patch of woods into a nearby neighborhood, leaving the towel-wrapped firearm in the woods.

Robinson is currently under "special watch" with authorities in Utah. Police say he has not been cooperating during interviews.

It’ll be alleged until after God willing, he is convicted.....and even after that some leftie news outlets will continue to say it that way.

Is Lee Harvey Oswald still the “alleged” JFK assassin?

Is James Earl Ray still the “alleged” MLK Jr. assassin?

[Robert DeLong]

Yes, that is my point. The whole narrative, just rings hollow. In fact, it is so hollow I can’t even believe that they are trying to sell us this BS. even worse, I can’t believe that some people are buying this BS. I know there are people that will but whatever they are told, but this? SMDH

[Karl Spooner]

Run him through the news media gauntlet like they did Oswald.

[Robert DeLong]

Okay, I am not asking you to believe, but I notice you won't say why you disagree. So, am I to assume that you but the narrative you are being told?

If that is wat you want to believe, then so be it. I gave no problem with you believing the narrative they are pushing.

You may think you are insulting me or something, but I don't care if you disagree with me. I am just explaining why I am not guying this BS being told us.

[Karl Spooner]

Nothing like taking a little walk with a rifle in your pant leg.

.

[Karl Spooner]

I tend to agree with you.

[Robert DeLong]

Can you identify when it the timeline that video is from? It could be after he jumped from the roof. He may have hurt his leg and is walking with a limp. In fact, if he jumped from the roof with the rifle in his pant leg, he would definitely have injured himself and it wouldn't be his leg. we didn't see him stuff the rifle down his pantleg after he jumped, that is for certain. He scooped up his backpack and went straight towards the woods

Stuff a rifle in your pantleg and jump off your roof, I think you will learn real quick that the damage would be significant.

As I have said, none of us have any idea what the truth is, because the information is spotty & full of holes. I'm not impressed. Call me whatever, but when there is clear evidence of the FBI being weaponized, I find it hard to believe what they tell me, because there are still many within the FBI, that are part of that weaponization that existed.

I love Kash Patel, but I honestly cannot say that I am impressed with his leadership at this point. I expected a lot more from him than I have seen him deliver. Same goes for Pam Bondi. I have patiently provided them with time to acclimate, but the sands running through the hourglass are coming close to expiring. In other words, I am rapidly catching up to those who sounded the alarm months ago now. things had better start breaking & soon

[nfldgirl]

Seriously. Soon as I saw that, I thought, WTF are they doing! A crime scene and washing away the evidence, less than 24 hours after? 🤦🤦🤦

[nfldgirl]

How in the world could he be carrying a rifle in his pants if that’s him heading up to the roof? You would think the gun had to have already been up there already, put there by him or another.

[nfldgirl]

How can he have a rifle in his pant leg when both of his legs are bending at the knee?

[Varsity Flight]

Appears down the back, from the neck.

[Robert DeLong]

I have no idea when that video was taken. For all I know it was generated by AI.

Word floating around is the White House is dissatisfied with the FBI Director.

[spokeshave]

Adjusting the scope would normally be done at the range, with multiple rounds fired after each adjustment. On the roof, prior to the shooting, would not be a normal place to make an adjustment.

And not only that...who ever adjusts a rifle scope with a screwdriver...?

An Allen key is the tool of choice....doesn't slip out.

[EQAndyBuzz]

“Has David Hogg popped up to pop off.....”

Yes. Gun control.

[MayflowerMadam]

“he changed his cloths while on the rooftop, so it has been reported.”

That makes sense.

[Robert DeLong]

I hope he turns himself around, because I di think he has a lot to offer, and I still believe he can step up his game. But he needs to get more serious.

I see he is being grilled in Congress today. I am praying for his success.

[Robert DeLong]

If the other pictures presented are actually Tyler are him, then ii ss true that at some point in time he changed his clothes, but when, still remains most likely, unconfirmed. That statement was reflecting what has been reported. I am not disputing that part as much as I am the rifle and how it got into the woods. Some say that breaking down the Mauser, is not easy, while others say it would only take seconds. One guy said all you have to do it push a button and the stock folds up into a compacted state that would have allowed the rifle to fit in the backpack. Only problem was, he didn't actually display that being done. Looking at the rifle, that seems to not be true. In fact, the rifle he was handling, looked similar but not exactly like the one being shown.

We all should know that there are still those in the FBI who re weaponized, so why should we accept what they are telling us at face value?

It doesn't hurt to question. If they have the truth and the evidence, then there should be no issue to question the narrative being told us, right?
