FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino told Newsmax on Monday that investigators have uncovered "significant developments" suggesting a broader network of people might have been involved in the assassination of conservative icon Charlie Kirk.
Bongino told "Rob Schmitt Tonight" the bureau is working to determine whether online chatter that surfaced around the time of Kirk's murder indicates foreknowledge of the plot. He cautioned that investigators are still sorting out a timeline.
"The only question is the timeline that other people knew about the incident," Bongino said. "Did they know before? Did they know afterward? … When you read some of the traffic, it's unclear if that message was received before or after."
Bongino confirmed much of the evidence came from the chat platform Discord, where suspected gunman Tyler Robinson, 22, was active.
"It is not a safe harbor to go on a platform and say, 'I can threaten to kill or harass someone,'" Bongino said. "We'll go anywhere to look for you if we believe you committed a crime."
Bongino stressed the investigation is in its early stages.
"This is not the end of the investigation," he said. "It's not even the end of the beginning. … We are investigating a potential broader network of people who may have known."
Pressed on whether the "developments" involved other individuals, Bongino acknowledged that was the case but said he had to tread carefully.
"That's an accurate assessment," he said. "My goal in coming on your show, Rob, is I and [FBI Director] Kash Patel obviously want to be transparent and get out into the public. We don't want an information vacuum which can be filled by others. What we can get out there we fully intend on doing, but we still have to respect process in the investigation."

Somebody has to figure out once and for all who funds all these anti-American riots and protest. Who pays for the bricks and weapons that are delivered to protest sites. Who is paying the anti-ice protesters. Those are anti-American type people they need to be brought to justice once and for all if it leads to George Soros, he should be arrested.
Maybe his former loyal radio listeners influenced him to laugh off the “Oswald acted alone” style government hoaxes.
Now that he’s an insider he must say to the others “C’mon, nobody is going to fall for that lie. You can’t get away with that stuff any more.”
for those that want to see some of what he is talking about you can look for 0hour’s research on twitter into the whole furry steamboat discord saga.

there is a masked figure as his profile pic and he is not suspended.
Thanks, Chick!
Wider network? The leftist termites have rotted whatever was sound in the entire Democratic party structure and have made progress on undermining so-called moderate Republicans who are comfortable straddling picket fences.
just be aware I think he may be some kind of hacker so I dont click on any link directly from him but it gives you an insight as to how crazy this all is.
What??? His parents and homosexual lover are also involved?
As is usually the case.... When it comes to nut jobs.. Pretty sure that they typically act alone. There are the occasional exceptions... Jim Jones... Hitler... Stalin... But for the most part they keep it to themselves.
Arrested, hell! Heads on pikes. Lots.

I wish Bongino and Kash Patel would keep in mind the old admonition “loose lips sink ships”.
Arrest them? Right, so a leftist DA can refuse to pursue consequences? Have you not seen enough of that process yet?
Their candor is so incredibly refreshing after a generation of liars hidin behind the “can’t talk about an active investigation” shield. That shield hid malfeasance, misfeasance, and sedition.

Well, one very simple point: the shooter was shown on video juming from the roof and scurrying off. He was obviously not carrying a rifle. The rifle was found in the woods. Was it magic? A magic rifle?
On the other hand, Dan was going to find the J6 DNC bomber as well. Still waiting......
I’ve known several directors and asst. directors, and you would never mistake any of them for “social influencers”....
just sayin’. You can say the same for AGs
That rat mole Cox tried his best to sell the lone usual lone gunman BS.
There are a bunch of weirdo fringe people like furries that need further examination for their involvement.
And be sure to give them the full J6 treatment in the roughest jails they can find.
You didn’t see a rifle because it was covered. He lays the rifle down and then swings it up and over as he jumps.
