FBI investigating transgender users who predicted Charlie Kirk shooting on social media weeks in advance
The FBI is investigating social media posts believed to have been made by transgender users who appeared to predict Charlie Kirk’s fatal shooting weeks before it happened, according to sources.
The agency has obtained several screenshots, including some that referenced the date of Kirk’s death – September 10 – more than a month in advance, the Washington Free Beacon reported.
‘itd be funny if someone like charlie kirk got shot on september 10th LMAO,’ an X account user named @TallyHallAlbum, posted on September 3.
They went on to appear to make a threat on the President’s life, adding: ‘Donald Trump. December 14th.’
On August 6, about two months before Kirk was assassinated, another user, @altulige, wrote: ‘september 10th will be a very interesting day.’
The user then said: ‘I plead the fifth’ in a follow-up post.
At least one of the users followed Lance Twiggs, the transgender roommate and confirmed lover of Kirk’s accused killer Tyler Robinson, on TikTok, the sources said.
The recent post made by @altulige was reposted by an account named ‘churbum75m (SAW TYLER JUNE 30),’ who appears to follow Twiggs, or ‘lanclotl’ on TikTok.

Several of the posts appeared to predict the exact date of Kirk’s assassination – September 10
Just moments after Kirk was pronounced dead, another user by the name of churbum75 posted to X: ‘WE F***ING DID IT.’
Screenshots of these posts and similar ones have been circulating online, but were not previously authenticated, the outlet reported.
A number of the accounts being probed appear to be associated with LGBT subcultures, as one user, ‘Osamu bin Tezuka,’ used the X handle ‘@fujoshincel’ – a reference to an anime genre that illustrates romantic relationships between males.
On September 5, that user wrote alongside a winky face emoji: ‘You guys… I have something BIG coming soon. Just be sure to check the news, you’ll know it when you see it.’
On the day of Kirk’s death, they reposted it, stating: ‘Well that’s that.’
Meanwhile, another user, ‘@NajraGalvz’ took to the platform stating: ‘Charlie kirk is coming to my college tomorrow i rlly hope someone evaporates him literally.’
In a subsequent post, they added: ‘lets just say something big will happen tomorrow.’
A TikTok user, who appears to be transgender, also posted a video the night before Kirk’s death, the outlet reported.
Along with the apparent prediction, the user @TallyHallAlbum wrote: ‘Donald Trump. December 14th’

‘charles james kirk. mr college dropout does NOT know what’s coming tomorrow.
‘be ready… this isn’t a threat it’s a promise,’ they added, alongside four blue heart emojis.
News of these posts come a day after Utah Governor Spencer Cox confirmed Charlie Kirk’s alleged assassin had a romantic relationship with a transgender lover.
Robinson, 22, was arrested on Friday in connection to the murder that shocked the world.
During a Sunday morning interview with CNN’s Dana Bash, Cox confirmed Robinson’s roommate was his ‘romantic partner’ and that it is being probed as a possible motive into Kirk’s death.
‘Yes, definitely. And yes, I can confirm that. I know that has been reported and that the FBI has confirmed that as well, that the roommate was a romantic partner, a male transitioning to female,’ the governor said.
Just seconds before Robinson allegedly opened fire from 200 yards away, Kirk had been addressing a liberal audience member who was arguing that transgender mass shooters are misrepresented in the media.
Utah Valley University student Hunter Kozak, 29, asked Kirk: ‘Do you know how many transgender Americans have been mass shooters over the last ten years?’
A TikTok user, who appears to be transgender, also posted a video the night before Kirk’s death

Kirk quipped: ‘Too many’.
Cox said Twiggs has been ‘incredibly cooperative’ in the investigation and ‘had no idea that this was happening’.
Meanwhile, Robinson has not admitted to murder and is not cooperating with authorities, Cox told ABC News.
‘He has not confessed to authorities. He is not cooperating, but all the people around him are cooperating. And I think that’s very important,’ he added.
Robinson was taken into custody after his family turned him into police when they learned of his alleged involvement in Kirk’s assassination.
Cox said the alleged shooter’s relationship with his partner is currently being looked into as a possible motive. Kirk was known to share anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric.
