Video posted on social media shows the moment #CharlieKirk was shot & the seconds leading to the incident. Kirk was being asked questions about #MassShootings in the #US.
“Do you know how many mass shooters there have been in America in the last 10 years?” a person asks. “Counting or not counting gang violence?” Kirk responds right before he is shot.

Speaker #MikeJohnson paused the #House in the middle of a series of votes to call for a moment of silence and prayer for #CharlieKirk.
Several Democrats objected, pointing out that the House had not given a #SchoolShooting in #Colorado earlier in the day the same treatment.
Also #Trump ordered all American flags to be lowered to half-staff until Sunday evening at 6PM in honor of Kirk, he didn’t mention the 3 students shot at Colorado #Evergreen HS.

#KashPatel, #Trump #FBI director, says the suspected #CharlieKirk shooter is in custody on social media.
Utah law enforcement are currently holding a press conference, they say the suspect is still at large.
Pretty sure Patel is wrong.

@Nonilex "malevolence tempered by incompetence" probably applies here
