The effort to bring federal charges has been met with resistance by some career prosecutors who argue the crime doesn’t appear to fall under any federal statutes.
Three months after the assassination of Charlie Kirk, the Justice Department is weighing how to bring federal charges against the shooter, including under a novel legal theory that it was an anti-Christian hate crime, according to three people familiar with the investigation.
The suspect, Tyler Robinson, is already facing multiple state charges, including an aggravated murder count, and Utah prosecutors plan to seek the death penalty. Robinson’s partner is trans, and authorities have produced text messages from the suspect to his partner saying he was motivated to kill Kirk because he had “enough of his hatred.”
It’s not uncommon for defendants to face both state and federal charges, including for drug-related crimes and domestic terrorist attacks, among other offenses. But the effort to bring federal charges in the Kirk case has been met with resistance by some career prosecutors who have argued that the crime doesn’t appear to fall under any federal statutes, the three people said.
Someone told me the other day that Catholics weren’t Christians. I’m like… They are the og Christians.
The person refused to believe me.
That’d more likely be the Copts.
Well yeah that’s fair. They were the first mainstream christians but yeah I learned the other day that the og Christians was actually ran by women. And then a king saw people were into it, appropriated it to control them through it. Got rid of all the women and made it so they couldn’t be in positions of power.
I never knew it was a women driven religion. But honestly it makes sense cause women are historically invested more in charity. And that was Jesus’s whole thing.
Be nice. Share what you have. Don’t be greedy.
Were they Baptists? I know plenty of Protestants, most especially Baptists, that will definitely be quite vocal about their belief that Catholics are not “real” xtians.
Why yes. They were.
You gotta go to the Seventh Day Adventists, imo, to get some reeeeaaallll hardcore Catholic hate, good lord do they hate Catholics.

Oh yeah you hear the wildest shit from protestants growing up catholic
I grew up with that nonsense. Many evangelical and charismatic Christians think that Catholics aren’t true Christians. My “non denominational” high school encouraged students to visit other churches, as long as it wasn’t Catholic, Anglican, Mormon or Jehovah’s witnesses. I guess they had a direct line to God Almighty in the principles office.
