Video Evidence in Tyler Robinson Trial, 7 July 2026
… the defense fought so hard against allowing it to be seen by the public.The video compilation (exhibit 12.4) of Tyler Robinson visiting UVU campus four times on 9/10 (the last visit stretching into the early morning hours of 9/11) will be submitted as evidence and broadcast to the media.

The first part of the video is very clear and not grainy. It appears to show ROBINSON pulling into a parking garage, getting out of a silver Dodge Challenger in the…
A second time he comes on campus on foot, later that morning, he stopped in to eat Chik-fil-A and left campus around 11AM.
The third time he comes back to campus is also on foot the same way he scoped out the second time.
HULL noticed he is walking with a “limp” in this video, which is different from the other two videos. One of his legs does not bend to go up stairs, for example.
It seems as though the limp is caused by hiding a rifle in a pants leg.
It shows the man who appears to be ROBINSON going to the staircase leading to the roof of the Losee building, where Officer BAGLEY said he saw the markings of a sniper post.
It shows the man laying “prone” on the Losee building, and HULL maintains it is ROBINSON.
That man can be seen running across the top of the building after he fired the shot, jumping down onto the grass, and moving away from the building.
… seconds later. HULL also said that the person he maintains is ROBINSON can be seen leaving getting off the roof with what appears to be a long, rifle-shaped object concealed by cloth in his hand. Notably, he no longer is walking with a limp, as was seen in the much clearer footage on the stairs, who HULL says is the same person — ROBINSON. That limp may be caused by a gun concealed in a pant leg, but STATE has not yet directly asked that question.I should clarify the first post. The video does not show who took a shot, but HULL testified it is ROBINSON. He talked about the timeline, as the person who he says is ROBINSON goes on the roof, the shot was fired while he was on the roof, and then he is seen leaving the scene…

Tyler Robinson Trial, Day 1 & 2
Federalist White House Correspondent Breccan Thies covers this week’s preliminary hearings regarding Charlie Kirk’s assassination here.
He arrived at court this morning under the same heightened security measures.
This preliminary hearing will determine whether there is sufficient evidence to bind Robinson over for trial, where prosecutors are seeking the death penalty.

Mike Steger, 8 July 2026
What does it truly mean to be an American citizen?
In this episode, Mike Steger examines one of the most consequential constitutional debates in modern America through the lens of the Supreme Court's recent birthright citizenship decision. Drawing on the Pilgrims, the Puritans, the American Founding, the Civil War, and the writings of Justice Clarence Thomas, Mike argues that citizenship is rooted not in entitlement, but in duty, sacrifice, and the enduring principles of natural law.
From Plymouth Rock to Frederick Douglass, from John Winthrop to Abraham Lincoln, this discussion explores the spiritual and moral foundations that built the American Republic and why recovering those principles may determine America's future.

A Great Deal of Mutual Respect for Each Other
… many masks; however, unlike many leaders he does so publicly. He will say whatever is needed to make the ‘West’ think they have upper hand, while doing exactly the opposite.You have to really understand the NATO relationship with Turkey, Recep Erdogan and, well, essentially the Muslim Brotherhood, to understand the dynamics at play.

Turkish President Recep Erdogan is a perfectly Turkish man of notoriously intemperate disposition. Erdogan wears…
Erdogan will decry terrorism, take in Syrian refugees and simultaneously kill Kurds and provide safe harbor for the worst elements of The Muslim Brotherhood (political Islam). No one sleeps in Erdogan’s camp without one eye open and a weapon under their pillow.
The ‘west’ hates his duplicity and leverage. The Russians don’t trust him an inch. The Arabs think he’s sketchy and the Persian’s tolerate him. However, Erdogan is centered in the Gateway between the Middle East and Europe; even Turkey’s geography is critical.
There is only one guy in global politics who interacts with Recep Erdogan in a way that generates mutual respect; that guy is Donald Trump. The skillset that Trump carries is his lack of pretending, his brutal honesty in every interaction.
Trump could be standing next to Erdogan as a presser, answer a question and say, “He’s a strong man, he’s probably lying, but that’s ok, I like him, it’s strong politics, you can’t be weak, we will figure it out.”…. To wit Erdogan won’t flinch an inch but smile inside.
In a weird way, 99% of the viewing public will not understand the dynamic of this relationship, but it’s funny. If there was one global leader who would be disliked by NATO more than Erdogan, it’s probably Trump.
The two non-pretending leaders -absolutely critical for everything- have a great deal of mutual respect for each other.
And there’s a reason why the notoriously insufferable NATO manipulator met President Trump at the airport, with an official greeting.
Senator McConnell Has Been Hospitalized for Three Weeks
… is about national security: if Senator McConnell has been unable to independently perform his duties, what safeguards exist to ensure classified intelligence briefings, defense appropriations information, or other sensitive congressional matters could not be accessed, discussed, or shared by individuals operating behind the scenes? And given the timing of Chao’s meeting with China’s vice president, what exactly was discussed?Senator Mitch McConnell has now been hospitalized for three weeks. The gravity of this situation cannot be overstated, especially given that his wife, Elaine Chao, appeared in China just days after his hospitalization to meet with high-ranking Chinese officials.

I just met Desiree Townsend in DC & was impressed - she has forced/shamed the mainstream media into covering this by doing her job the way they should have been doing theirs, tracking down the 911 calls, constantly going back to the hospital for updates, keeping pressure on his office/staff etc. If you’re interested in this, folo her reporting.
… update on the condition of a sitting U.S. Senator. The lack of transparency has been outrageous and has left people wondering whether he’s being kept alive on life support or whether the full truth simply isn’t being told… has he already passed???If Mitch McConnell dies before August 3, Kentucky law would trigger a special election for his Senate seat.

Then there’s Elaine Chao, McConnell’s wife, traveling to China to meet with a CCP leader just days after McConnell was hospitalized. Maybe there’s an explanation, but the timing is undeniably odd. Would you leave your husband to travel to China if he is so ill he’s in the hospital for over 20 days? I sure wouldn’t.
Something about this entire situation doesn’t add up, and the American people deserve answers.
WE NEED PROOF OF LIFE!

However, anyone with extensive bedside experience knows that for an 84-year-old frail patient who has sustained an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest requiring full resuscitation, the idea that he is actively participating in daily Senate business is highly unlikely.
The brutal physical trauma of chest compressions combined with the high risk of acute neurological insult makes a return to a high-functioning baseline virtually impossible for someone with his preexisting vulnerabilities.
From my clinical perspective, the statistical chances of a full recovery are slim to none, serving as a stark reminder that political status cannot override physiological limits.
Who agrees that his constituents and the rest of America deserves the truth? 🤔
Barbara Boyd, 6 July 2026
Barbara Boyd argues that recent speeches by President Trump and Vice President J.D. Vance offer an antidote to communism, socialism, and what she calls Democrats’ targeting of Gen Z and millennials through a counterculture shaped under Obama and Biden and teachers’ unions. She describes escalating attacks on Trump’s planned Freedom 250 celebration, including musicians withdrawing, blue states refusing to join the Great American State Fair, a Patriot Front march, and Chatham House commentary highlighting U.S. “fault lines.” Boyd highlights New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s July 3 City Hall speech criticizing inequality and “oligarchs,” including Elon Musk, and notes online satire in response. She then recaps Trump’s Mount Rushmore remarks defining American liberty, culture, self-reliance, and patriotism, and Vance’s New York Harbor speech invoking Washington, the Declaration, and builder Henry Kaiser.
