Tyler Robinson, the suspect in the assassination of Charlie Kirk, has been charged with making threats of political violence in New Mexico, including statements referencing "civil war" and harming those who "have something bad to say about Charlie," according to reports from KRQE.com and NBC4i.com. The new charges stem from online posts made after Kirk's death and include threats against Jewish people, minority groups, and an Ohio city councilor. The reporting window of September 15th, 2025, from 8:02:48 PM to 8:17:31 PM UTC, saw these developments emerge following Robinson's alleged confession on Discord around 7:17 PM UTC on September 15th, where he stated, "It was me at UVU yesterday. im sorry for all of this. im surrendering through a sheriff friend in a few moments. thanks for all the good times and laughs." This confession was reported by The Washington Post and shared by The Insider Paper. Robinson, who is allegedly a neo-Nazi, made the threats in New Mexico after Charlie Kirk's assassination. The specific threats included targeting minority groups and an Ohio city council member, as detailed by NBC4i.com. Authorities are investigating these threats of political violence, as noted by KRQE.com. Earlier in the day on September 15th, President Donald Trump skipped a vigil for Charlie Kirk, opting to spend the weekend at his golf club in New Jersey, according to a TMZ report. This occurred as Vice President JD Vance criticized calls for "unity" with "radical leftists" whom he accused of celebrating Kirk's assassination. Senator Chris Murphy had stated that President Trump and his allies might "exploit this tragedy" to target political opposition. In legislative activities, the House passed H.R. 3427, the Water Resources Technical Assistance Review Act, by voice vote. Minnesota Republican Representative Pete Stauber recited the "Miracle on Ice" call on the House floor. Separately, a public memorial service for Charlie Kirk is scheduled for this weekend at Arizona's State Farm Stadium. Theories suggesting Kirk was killed by a rightwing "Groyper" have reportedly lacked evidence, with officials reportedly identifying the killer as a leftist, according to an Axios report shared by Marc Caputo on X.
