Tyler Robinson, 22, was arrested on September 12th in Orem, Utah, for the assassination of Charlie Kirk on September 10th. Preliminary evidence suggests Robinson shared messages on Discord related to the murder, a pattern similar to a previous attempt on President Trump, according to NewsNation. The suspect's father detained him until police arrived, concluding a manhunt that recovered the shooter's weapon and ammunition near Utah Valley University. Utah's governor intends to pursue the death penalty. New information surfaced on September 12th from an X user claiming to have attended high school with the arrested suspect, Tyler Robinson, stating, "Hold up, I went to High School with the shooter. Like it was at my university, and we went to high school together." This personal account emerged as authorities continue to investigate Robinson's motive, which remains unclear, though some online discourse suggests Kirk was disliked by various groups, including Neo-Nazis. In unrelated developments, Michigan Democratic Party Black Caucus has endorsed Haley Stevens for US Senate. Separately, Secretary of War Pete Hegseth spoke with Polish Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of National Defense Wladyslaw Kosiniak-Kamysz on September 12th regarding recent Russian provocations on Poland's border, with Hegseth assuring Poland of US support.
