Family member says individual became 'radicalized' and influenced Tyler Robinson's politics over past year​

ST. GEORGE, Utah - The trans roommate of Turning Point USA Founder Charlie Kirk's alleged assassin "hates conservatives and Christians," one of his relatives told Fox News Digital in an interview.

The 22-year-old, who has not been charged and whose name has not yet been released by authorities, was in a romantic relationship with suspect Tyler Robinson, also 22, according to the relative. She said he is in the process of transitioning from male to female.

The woman, who asked to remain anonymous, told Fox News Digital her relative began to act differently when he turned 18 and said that he developed a hatred of Christians and conservatives.

Hello all,
I found this site by searching for Christian forums and then a post on a reddit forum with a link to here.
I am from Florida. I was saved in 1987 on my sixth birthday and called to be a pastor in 2020.
I have an mDiv in pastoral ministry and serve as a pastor.
I look forward to getting to hear your story and sharing with each other.
God bless you,

The immediate response of many “mainstream” liberal journalists to the assassination of conservative commentator Charlie Kirk demonstrates why so many Americans loathe the corporate media.

Many of the responses to Kirk’s killing on social websites like TikTok and Bluesky have been celebratory and downright evil.

It’s ironic in a certain way that Bluesky had become such a concentrated den of hate and outrage, given that the platform was allegedly created because X had backed away from content moderation.

The truth is that what they really wanted was just a safe space for libs. They wanted a world carefully cultivated like a college campus where opinions range from the Left to Left-er, and anyone who challenges their views with logic, like Charlie Kirk, is silenced when basic liberal assumptions are questioned.

But as vicious as the hordes of hateful, random leftists have been on social media, it’s the mainstream outlets that behaved most shamefully when news of Kirk’s shooting broke.

• Fox News host Brian Kilmeade apologized Sunday for suggesting “involuntary lethal injections” to remove mentally ill homeless people from streets.
• His remarks during Wednesday’s show sparked outrage online, with critics comparing them to ██ ████'s euthanasia programs.

The topic led “Fox & Friends” co-host Laurence Jones to say that billions of dollars have been spent on programs to care for the homeless and mentally ill but many of those afflicted resist help.

“A lot of them don’t want to take the programs,” Jones said. “A lot of them don’t want to get the help that is necessary. You can’t give them the choice. Either you take the resources that we’re going to give you, or you decide that you’ve got to be locked up in jail.”

Kilmeade added: “Or involuntary lethal injection or something — just kill ‘em.”

Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew, the spiritual leader of Eastern Orthodox Christians, is making his first visit in four years to the United States, where he met Monday afternoon with President Donald Trump and is slated to receive honors for his environmental advocacy.

Bartholomew arrived in Washington Sunday and is scheduled to make various U.S. appearances through Sept. 25.

Bartholomew is considered first among equals among Orthodox patriarchs because of his role as patriarch of Constantinople, the ancient capital city now known as Istanbul in Turkey. That role gives him prominence, but not the power of a pope, in a church with various self-governing jurisdictions.

The patriarch oversees the small Orthodox population in mostly Muslim Turkey. He also oversees some communities abroad, such as the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America and some smaller U.S. jurisdictions.

Bartholomew’s meeting with Trump took place Monday afternoon in the Oval Office. His office issued a brief summary of the meeting, and he expanded on that in comments to reporters.

The patriarch told reporters afterward that he talked about the small Christian population in Turkey, “the hardships they face, the difficulties, the persecutions, but also the fact that despite all these we survive and we continue to carry out our mission,” according to the archdiocese’s Orthodox Observer news site.


Bartholomew also talked about Ukraine and his role in church affairs there.

Bartholomew is a strong supporter of Ukraine. He recognized an independent Orthodox jurisdiction there in 2019, leading the Russian Orthodox Church to declare that the communion between it and Constantinople is broken. Bartholomew has also sharply criticized Moscow Patriarch Kirill’s blessing of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

The patriarch said he talked with Trump about past Russian oppression of Ukraine and about its current invasion, “about the thousands of victims, about the destruction, about the kidnapped children, about all these tragic events that wound the conscience of humanity,” according to the Observer.

Leaders of Gaza’s Christian community said in a joint statement released on August 26 that the forced displacement would amount to “nothing less than a death sentence”.“Among those who have sought shelter within the walls of the compounds, many are weakened and malnourished due to the hardships of the last months,” the patriarchs wrote. “For this reason, the clergy and nuns have decided to remain and continue to care for all those who will be in the compounds.”

Clergy to stay in their churches​

“This decision came with complete freedom,” Farid Gibran, the Holy Family Church’s spokesperson, explained, saying those sheltering at the church have the liberty to leave if they want to.

The decision of the church leaders to stay in Gaza City has inspired many of those residing at the Holy Family Church to remain despite growing fears of Israeli attacks. Many, like Moussa Saad Ayyad, 41, a father of four children aged six to 14, believe the church’s relationship with the Vatican could guarantee relative safety.

Soon after Charlie Kirk's assassination, some on the political left quickly spread a baseless theory that the conservative podcaster was killed by a follower of the ultra-right-wing group called Groypers.

The big picture: Internet searches for Groypers skyrocketed last week as critics tried to connect Kirk's suspected shooter, Tyler Robinson, and the group's leader, Nick Fuentes, a podcaster known for edgy, racist and socially transgressive content.

• Fuentes said early Saturday on X that his followers are being "framed" for Kirk's killing, "based on literally zero evidence."
• Authorities told Axios they believe Robinson's romantic relationship with his transgender roommate could be key to determining a motive for Kirk's killing, and that Robinson believed that the conservative was spreading transphobic hate.
• More details are expected to emerge this week when charges are formally filed against Robinson.

Between the lines: The partisan battle to define a killer as a follower of an ideological opponent has become a common response to high-profile slayings, from Florida to Texas to Pennsylvania.

Since the fatal shooting of Charlie Kirk on Sept. 10, social media users have shared posts showing, quoting or paraphrasing remarks the posts attribute to the conservative activist. Many readers have asked us to provide the facts on whether Kirk, the founder of the youth political group Turning Point USA, made several of these comments.

We’ll review some of the statements that our readers asked about and correct a viral social media post that got what Kirk said wrong.

While he did say many of the statements, some have been misrepresented or not presented with full context.

False Claim of an Asian Slur​

A popular post on X incorrectly claimed that Kirk used a slur for Asian people.

“That time Charlie Kirk called an Asian woman in the audience ‘c—-’ multiple times,” the post reads, spelling out the slur in full, and accompanied by a montage video from TikTok. “He made millions off of his racism and sexism.”

The video, however, does not show Kirk using the slur. Rather, as an X Community Note explains, Kirk was shouting at Cenk Uygur, a co-host of the Young Turks, a progressive online news show, and using his first name. The two men were at Politicon, an annual nonpartisan political convention, in October 2018.

“I live like a capitalist every single day, Cenk!” Kirk said angrily to Uygur, after Uygur interrupted a debate Kirk was having with the Young Turks’ Hasan Piker about what political views young people should have. “Come on, Cenk, let’s go,” he said later.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) revived her calls for a “national divorce” on Monday, ominously warning that the American right and left have “nothing left to talk about.”

Greene sparked controversy in February of 2023, when she wrote on X, “We need a national divorce.”
“We need to separate by red states and blue states and shrink the federal government. Everyone I talk to says this. From the sick and disgusting woke culture issues shoved down our throats to the Democrat’s [sic] traitorous America Last policies, we are done,” Greene added.

I'm not against this in a way. Why should I have to give my taxes to Republicans, When they want nothing to with Democrat ,except when it comes to money . What should happen, is all Democrats support Democrats people only . And red states take care of them selves .Except for the Democrats in Red States. problem solved.

"The New York Times has been allowed to freely lie, smear, and defame me for far too long, and that stops, NOW! The suit is being brought in the Great State of Florida."

Like those Trump has previously sued the NY Times can afford to settle. But it is important, it does cost them and it puts them on notice about continuing to print libelous information.

(from a week or so ago)
An assistant football coach and SRO at Northwest High School has been put on paid leave during an investigation of a complaint of “proselytizing” during a football game Friday night that led to his removal from the contest.

Deputy Lawrence “Trey” Campbell was put on leave by the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office, which oversees the school resource officers at Clarksville-Montgomery County Schools.

Friday night, Campbell, in his role as an assistant coach on the football team, was removed at halftime of the Vikings game against Davidson Academy by the Northwest principal. By some accounts, Campbell was holding a Bible and leading players in prayer.
--

On Tuesday, CMCSS released a statement through spokesman Anthony Johnson with initial information from its investigation into the incident.

“The concerns were not about private prayer or personal religious beliefs. CMCSS fully supports and respects the constitutional rights of all students, employees and visitors to practice their faith, including the right to pray privately,” Johnson said. “However, federal law and the U.S. Constitution place limits on the actions of public employees, including educators, coaches and SROs, when they are acting in their official capacities.

“Beginning the morning of Sept. 5, witnesses observed behavior from Campbell [in his role as SRO] that was inconsistent with those standards and with his normal conduct. At the beginning of the school day, Campbell carried a Bible and told staff he was ‘walking in the Spirit today,’ quoting Scripture about rebuking those who come against you.

“Throughout the day, witnesses reported and video footage corroborated that Campbell carried a Bible with him, spoke with students as they entered the school that morning, in the cafeteria, and other areas of the school while quoting Scripture from the Bible, and he excused a student for being tardy because the student had been with him in the cafeteria, which is an action outside the typical protocol,” Johnson said.

“Later that evening at the football game, multiple witnesses observed and video footage corroborated Campbell spending significant time throughout the game on the sidelines with players and other students, quoting Scripture, holding a Bible up to spectators, and leading prayers. A witness stated that ‘every time I looked and saw him, he was talking to a player or players with the Bible or holding hands with head bowed.’ A cell phone video surfaced that appeared to show Campbell step in front of the student section, leading a ‘faith over fear’ chant.”

However, multiple witnesses stated that when asked to stop causing a disruption and to put his Bible away, Campbell stated loudly that ‘I can’t do it, won’t do it,’ and ‘my job is to save these babies.’ [Actually, it isn't.]

This evening National Public Radio carried a lengthy news item about Baltimore having been inundated with hundreds of thousands of copies of a book titled "THE GREAT CONTROVERSY". It seems that the book was mailed to every address in Baltimore.

As many of us here at CF know, "THE GREAT CONTROVERSY" was authored by Ellen White, the prophetess, and chief founder of the Seventh Day Adventist Church. This thread is primarily directed toward members of that denomination. I have a number of questions as follow:

1. Why? Why deluge a large city with your denomination's key text, if in actual fact, you really believe that the Bible alone is the basis of all of your beliefs, as many of our SDA friends here at CF assert.
2. Why Baltimore (and Philadelphia, I understand)? Why not Denver or San Diego or Moscow or Nairobi?
3. Why go to the very significant expense when, in fact, there are many more less expensive and probably more cost-effective methods of member recruitment?

Following the tragic passing of Charlie Kirk, Christian artists have shared words of grief, prayer, and hope in Christ. Here are some of their heartfelt tributes. As more speak out, please add them to our ongoing conversations at Instagram, X, and Facebook.
Crowder
“My heart hurts. This world is broken. Erika Kirk posted this verse a couple of hours before she lost her husband Charlie: ‘God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble’ (Psalm 46:1).”

Seventh Day Slumber
“We are praying for Charlie Kirk’s beautiful family. This is heartbreaking .”

Phil Wickham
“My heart is grieved and heavy. It’s difficult to process the evil and hatred in our country right now. I pray God’s comfort and peace over Charlie Kirk’s family and loved ones. Jesus, it all feels like too much. All I know to do is lift my eyes to heaven and remember that one day every tear will be wiped away, and God will make all things new.”

Matthew West
“I’m sick to my stomach and heartbroken over the tragic loss of Charlie Kirk today. My family and I are praying for his wife, his children, and all who loved him. Charlie was a true patriot and a passionate follower of Jesus. May we honor his legacy by living and speaking the truth with the same boldness he demonstrated every day.”

Tauren Wells
“Senseless acts of violence, motivated by hatred, should provoke us to prayer and action. Our hearts and prayers go out to Charlie Kirk’s family, and I pray that the powers of darkness at work would be exposed and expelled by the power of Jesus Christ."

Point of Grace
“Charlie Kirk was an exceptional human being, wise and purpose-driven beyond his years. Brave. God and family first. He knew Jesus and the Holy Scriptures so well. He wanted to be remembered for his ‘courage in the faith.’ He will be. Our hearts are broken and grieving.”

Joel Vaughn
“Yesterday, Charlie Kirk was gunned down for having a differing opinion. It’s devastating for his wife and children, who now must live without him. I pray for his family, and I pray that we can learn to love our neighbors, disagree with civility, and follow Jesus’ command to love God and love one another.”

Ryan Ellis
“I am in total shock. RIP to a patriot. This is wild. I’m praying for peace and for the Kirk family, and for everyone who had to witness that horrific act. God help us.”

Michael Sweet
“I’m devastated that Charlie Kirk was killed. I’m sick over the fact that some are celebrating his death. No matter what you believe, why would anyone take joy in someone being murdered? I find comfort in God’s promises: that nothing can separate us from His love, and that through Jesus we have eternal life. Rest in peace, Charlie.”

Ledger
“Absolutely heartbreaking. Rest in peace, Charlie Kirk. Your bold faith, courage in Christ, and unwavering stand have left a profound mark on this generation. May we be inspired by your example to never shrink back, but to speak the truth in love.”

Matt Hammitt
“The enemy is working overtime to divide our nation politically, racially, and in every way he can—but our God will have the final word. May our hearts be bent in prayer for this nation and for the Kirk family today."

John Schlitt
“Such a needless tragedy... Welcome to your new heavenly home, Charlie Kirk.”

Rhett Walker
“Heartbreaking. No matter where you stand politically, violence is never the answer. This was pure evil. He was one of the only ones who would take any question, always with kindness. Pray for his wife and kids whose world has been flipped upside down. Pray for our country. Pray against evil. Pray for justice.”

I notice that invitation has been given for Christians to join Jews for prayer on the Temple Mount in response to Charlie Kirks Assassination.

How does that work when Judaism rejects Jesus as Messiah and is essentially therefore, antichrist.

Please don't misunderstand me - I have a deep love for Jews but have deep concerns for supporting their official religion in it's present form.

Are believers being primed to support the building of the third temple?

The temple institute seems to be planning a temple that would invite fellowship from any religion.

Should we be supporting this initiative ???

LOL, hear me out.

This is not a negative post, but sometimes I wonder if I'm truly a convert or am someone whose Catholicism was simply dormant in me for so many years of my life until I realized that I "needed to back to my roots" and get confirmed.

My very first memories of religion are when my mom had sent me to Catholic school "for the education." I only stayed there for four years, but I was always sad that I couldn't partake in what the other kids were doing in their faith, but I loved my mom and obeyed her.

I never quite knew what the faith meant until I started studying it more, and decided to be confirmed, but sometimes I ask myself am I truly a convert or was it just dormant in me until I realized I wanted to finish off what I started in childhood.

Technically speaking I'm a convert but theoretically? Who knows.

CCM artist Forrest Frank said he “doesn’t care” that 30,000 people unfollowed him after he posted a clip about late conservative activist Charlie Kirk, and publicly repented for the ways he’s used his platform as a “lukewarm highlight reel.”

In a video published on social media last week, Frank said, "30,000 people unfollowed me because I posted about Charlie Kirk and I said that Jesus Christ is Lord."

“Good,” he said. “I don’t want you to follow me. I don’t want you to track my music. I don’t want you to come to my shows. I don’t want you to do any of that if you don’t do this one thing, and that is, follow Jesus Christ, the King of all kings, the Lord of all lords, the one who is, the one who is to come.”

“He’s coming back real soon,” the "Your Way's Better" singer continued. “So if you have not gotten your heart right with Him and dropped down on your knees and repented to him. Today is the day. The hour is at hand.

Charlie Kirk's Opinions Didn't Deserve Him Being Murdered. Would You or a Loved One Want to Be Murdered for Your Opinions Someone Disagreed With ‍♀️

Before Charlie Kirk was murdered I didn't follow him.
I still don't follow stuff connected to him, but just like most, since he was murdered more of his stuff is coming across the news feed, which is expected.
If it's a snippet, I try to find the whole video of what he's talking about for context. Before his death, I would see snippets of what he said in my feed sometimes, but they were usually out of context.
After his death, some have been sharing some of CK's points he'd make, but in context.
Sadly it seems some are going by the sound bites, snippets that have been out for awhile of him speaking with another. Which I think is unfair after hearing in context things he actually said. It's easy to twist out of context things to mean whatever we want.

Question: For those who didn't agree with Kirk on much, what is it that he said that rubs you wrong?
If you have a link to the full context of the things you disagreed with him on, as in a video/article, that would help for proof.

Since Jesus was the perfect sacrifice, how do you celebrate passover since the lamb slain was for the symbolic reference to Christ and you do not need to kill or sacrifice? Do you still eat lamb? Do you not eat lamb at all? I often wonder how Messianic Jews (I am not one) celebrate certain feast days like Passover, when it has been fulfilled.

I apologize if this doesn't belong here but I need help ASAP. I don't know wether this is an evil spirit harassing me or something else but please help.

Shortly after the 2016 election, I remember that some strange change immediately happened in my life. I was struggling with some type of addiction and issues with changing. I felt immediately that my ability to change and stop that thing and to change for the best completely left me. At the time, I didn't think much of it because it didn't impact my whole life at the time. It felt like some power immediately left from me but I don't know exactly what happened. I was unable to completely stop this issue that I had been struggling with for some time now. Fast forward to the election in 2024, shortly after the election, I suddenly felt something weird happen in my mind.






All throughout my life, I was a person who was curious about everything and anything. I had high ambitions and I had a rich imagination, vibrant and strong inner world, strong curiosity, deeper sense of self-reflection/self-introspection, constantly obsessed and thinking about deeper things than material things such as spirituality, religion, heaven, hell, consciousness, philosophy, psychology, purpose, etc. I was interested in learning new things as well and fascinated by new skills. However, a couple of days after the 2024 presidential election, I felt like some strange change happened to me all of a sudden. Something very weird and strange happened suddenly. I really feel different, in the worst way possible. PLEASE READ THIS VERY, VERY, VERY CAREFULLY! I literally don't care about the president's polices and politics at all. I am not attached to it whatsoever at all. It literally has nothing to do with politics and the agenda of the president. I don't even hate or like the president. I am neutral and don't care about his policies at all. This is not related to politics at all. PLEASE UNDERSTAND THIS!










I was listening to an audiobook and suddenly, I felt some tingling and some change going on in my mind. I felt some tingling in the left side of my mind and something slowly started to disappear from my head immediately. When this happened, I felt like my intellectual side, my creative abilities, my imagination, my inner self, being and everything that makes up with me as a person slowly disappeared or vanished overnight somehow. I feel like there's some kind of random change or something deeper than this that affected me. The vibe around my world felt different. I am not the same person anymore and it's like everything that I described about myself as a human being slowly disappeared immediately. I feel like my discernment and logical/intellectual guard to discern when people have dark and malicious intentions against me has been diminished or severely weakened. I feel like something inside of me has been weakened or died down or disappeared somehow. It's like my actual inner being/soul/spirit or whatever it is that is the real me has been beaten down and limited and restricted to a certain level. This is hard to explain and describe as well.











This is extremely painful with what I am dealing with because I don't feel like I have the capacity to change my life like I always wanted to. The biggest issue that is affecting me so badly now is my personality, identity and way of reasoning has been slowly erasing day by day and I am literally starting to see that I don't reason or think or behave the same way that I always used to. This is all for the worst. I can't imagine, brainstorm, think, be creative, etc at all. I am completely confused and stuck all the time. I have something wrong with me and I am looking for some type of explanation. I used to be into improving myself overall but then it all vanished completely. I will not accept that this is mental illness because this just happened immediately out of nowhere just like that and it's not good. It's no way that this is mental health related. What kind of experience can this be? Can someone please help me?

Both Timothy and Titus use the phrase "sound doctrine" twice in their respective letters.

In the context of each, or all, of these passages of Scripture, what is "sound doctrine?"

What does it mean?

What is the goal of Timothy and Titus by saying this?

....or what the Swamp that needs draining actually looks like:

One would think given Jim Comer's instance that Joe Biden loaning Hunter $3,000 and Hunter paying him back was a crime, he would be all over this. I mean you can't get more quid pro quo than that.

Here is a link to and FBI bulletin from March of this year. It mentions that there are online networks that are potentially targeting underage victims and manipulating and grooming them over time to do self harm and in some cases even commit suicide, often at so called "watch parties" that are live streamed for the members of the group. Other times the victims are encourage to commit various crimes and film it for the group. It is extremely disturbing. The groups are classified as "Nihilistic Violent Extremism (NVE)."

The bulletin has some recommendations towards the bottom.

In this article from NPR a mother talks about discovering her son was a victim of one of these groups. Though the criminal are in or a part of one extremist group or another their motivations towards there victims are sometimes quite individualistic. Some of the crimes the victims were encouraged to commit were acts of terrorism. Although not specifically mentioned in the article I have read some the the NVEs may even be using AI tools to further their agendas.

Possibly way before Columbus or the Vikings, the people of the Caucasus Mountains near the Black Sea made their way to the Americas (though South America not North). Amazing!!! My question now is, if these people did that 2000 to 3000 years ago did others possible do the same thing. So, the Americas may not have been settled only by the people coming through the Bering straits. Historians are going to have to really come up with some new theories now.
