Utah Gov. Spencer Cox: Alleged Charlie Kirk Assassin Tyler Robinson Messaged Roommate About ‘Need to Retrieve a Rifle’

Utah Gov. Spencer Cox (R) indicated during a Friday morning press conference that alleged assassin Tyler Robinson messaged his roommate on the Discord platform about the “need to retrieve a rifle.”

Cox noted that one family member disclosed Robinson had become “more political in recent years.”

The family member stated there was a recent dinner in which Robinson came to the table “and, in the conversation with another family member, Robinson mentioned that Charlie Kirk was coming to [Utah Valley University].”

The family member said Robinson had explained why he “did not like [Kirk]” or his viewpoints.

Cox said investigators then “identified an individual as the roommate of Robinson,” and that roommate indicated Robinson “made a joke on Discord.”

The roommate showed investigators several messages on Discord, one of which “stated a need to retrieve a rifle from a drop point, leaving the rifle in a bush.” (Read more from “Utah Gov.

‘Bella Ciao’ Inscription on Charlie Kirk Assassin’s Ammo References Song Idolized Among Antifa

One of the inscriptions on an ammunition casing of alleged Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson is a clear reference to the song “Bella Ciao,” which is idolized in Antifa circles.

At a press conference Friday morning, Gov. Spencer Cox (R-UT) detailed the pro-Antifa inscriptions on ammunition recovered from the gun used by Kirk’s assassin. One message on an unfired casing read, “O Bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao, ciao, ciao.”

The words are the chorus to “Bella Ciao,” a famous Italian song that dates back to World War II, and was popularized by the Italian partisans, or communists, who were against dictator Benito Mussolini. In English, “bella ciao” translates to “goodbye beautiful.”

As journalist Jack Posobiec pointed out Friday on Steve Bannon’s War Room, the song has become a worldwide left-wing antifa anthem, though it remains popular for other reasons too.

According to Cox, a fired casing had the message, “Notices bulges OwO, what’s this?” which is reportedly a reference to homosexuality associated with “furry” fetishes or attraction to cartoon animals.
