Hey, before we get into today's conversation, I want to share news that broke after we taped.

A suspect has been arrested in the death of Charlie Kirk.

On Wednesday afternoon, Charlie Kirk, the founder of the conservative youth organization

Turning Point USA, and a prominent ally of President Donald Trump, was shot and killed during an event at Utah Valley University.

Here is Utah Governor Spencer Cox at a press conference earlier today.

Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. We got him.

The suspect's name is Tyler Robinson.

He's 22 years old.

On the evening of September 11th, a family member of Tyler Robinson reached out to a family

friend who contacted the Washington County Sheriff's Office with information that Robinson

had confessed to them or implied that he had committed the incident.

Police followed up on this tip. They matched Robinson's car and closed to those believed belong to the alleged shooter.

A local Utah sheriff's office said he, quote, turned himself in. We're likely to learn a lot more about Robinson and what may have motivated this crime in the coming days.

At the scene, police found bullet casings inscribed with cryptic messages. Inscriptions on the

three unfired casings read, hey fascist, exclamation point, catch exclamation point. Up arrow symbol,

right arrow, and a symbol and three down arrow symbols. A second unfired casing casing read, oh, Bella, chow, Bella,

chow, Bella, chow. Robinson is facing at least three felony charges, including aggravated

murder. You can follow all the latest reporting on this story at Washington Post.com.

Now here's the show.
