In recent years, global methane sources and sinks have received increased attention owing to the rapid increase in atmospheric methane over the past decade and the high warming potential of methane (~80 times CO2 over a 20-year period1). There is a continued gap between the measured increase in atmospheric methane and the total emissions predicted from currently known methane sources – this underpins global efforts to better understand potential methane release from sources with the highest uncertainties, including the ocean and coasts2. Polar regions are increasingly recognized as containing globally significant volumes of methane in subglacial and marine reservoirs, with research in the geologic record3,4 and the contemporary Arctic5,6,7 illustrating the climate sensitivity of these systems.
One such mechanism of release from these reservoirs is from seeps in the marine8,9,10,11,12,13 or terrestrial4,6,14 environment, in addition to direct subglacial flux5,7. Seeps are areas of the seafloor where there is seepage of fluids rich in hydrocarbons (e.g., methane) or other chemicals (e.g., sulfide), often creating distinct marine habitats. Tens of thousands of methane seeps have been identified in the Arctic to date, with linkages to ice mass loss since the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM)4,8,13,15,16 as well as more recent climate change impacts5,7,17. The degradation of cryospheric caps, such as glacial ice, permafrost, and gas hydrates (methane and carbon dioxide gas trapped in an ice matrix) has been attributed3,4,5,6,7,15 as drivers for changes in methane flux in these instances
Clearly, this provides yet another motive for his assassination, and maybe especially because Kirk was reportedly interested in where TPUSA’s money was coming from. ABN
This angle appears to show the back of Kirk’s shirt rising before the front of his shirt.
This supports the hypothesis that he was shot (probably in the ear) from his right and slightly behind.
This observation is supported by other videos which show the wire from his earpiece flying away from his head’s right side, while the thick cable around his neck and attached to that wire is suddenly pulled up and around the back of his neck.
Since we do not see his earpiece fly away from his head in any video but only its wiring, we can presume with some certainty that Kirk was struck directly in his earpiece, after which the projectile went through his head and exited from his neck’s lower left.
If Kirk was struck by a projectile which targeted his earpiece, and thus went directly into his ear, it is not unreasonable to hypothesize that the projectile was programmed to target a signal emitted by his earpiece, thus assuring perfect accuracy.
There are numerous videos and photos of super-fast mini-drones present at the rally while Kirk was speaking.
These drones are reported to have reached estimated speeds of 150mph, which would indicate they were military-grade and probably operated by a government or a very wealthy private organization.
A drone like that would likely have capabilities beyond just flying fast.
These capabilities might include the ability to shoot small projectiles with great accuracy after homing in on a signal; in this case a signal from Kirk’s earpiece.
It’s also possible the projectile itself was a super-fast mini-missile which was capable of homing in on a signal produced by Kirk’s earpiece.
If both of these conditions are true, perfect accuracy would be assured.
The tiny projectile/ missile would enter Kirk’s head through a direct hit on his earpiece.
This would conceal the entry wound from video evidence. So far, we have no video evidence of an entry wound.
If Kirk was hit by a mini-missile, that projectile could have been programmed to self-destruct, thus explaining no evidence so far of any bullet having been found.
We are now left hoping there will be an honest autopsy.
Given the extremely weak and sloppy case case against Robinson and the slews of counter evidence to it, plus the long history of cases like this yielding dubious, at best, autopsies, it is all too likely we will never know who or what murdered Charlie Kirk. ABN
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has directed numerous generals and admirals, as well as some of their staff, from around the world to come to Quantico, Virginia next week, U.S. officials confirmed to CBS News on Thursday.
“The Secretary of War will be addressing his senior military leaders early next week,” said chief Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell.
There were no other details about the meeting given.
There are regularly scheduled meetings with senior military leaders, but a meeting of this size in person and on such short notice is rare, if not unprecedented.
The explanation below does not seem to account well for lack of burn and tear damage to Kirk’s shirt, but it does talk about his wireless microphone as being a probable weapon to have fired the fatal projectile.
This a not an unreasonable avenue of speculation, especially when we know weapons of this type exist and have been used recently with similar effects.
This is all speculation, but some of the main anomalies of this incident point to something other than the lone rooftop shooter.
A projectile under his shirt or in his microphone clasp or within his earpiece could have been what killed Kirk. And it need not have been fired by an explosive.
We owe it to any murder victim, and especially Kirk, to follow all leads without bias. ABN
The article below is related to the video above. The video above is not part of the article below:
Based solely on my analysis of the two angles of the events on September 10th I have come to the conclusion that this is the object that struck Charlie Kirk in the neck.
The DJI Mic 2 is a wireless microphone with a rectangular magnetic clasp. This device has a 300mAh battery that weighs 8 grams.
On that day Charlie had the microphone mounted with the bulk of the device underneath his shirt. Notice the magnetic clasp on his shirt and the angle that it rest.
This is the battery for the DJI Mic 2 transmitter that was underneath Charlie’s shirt. This is a 8 gram 300mAh battery that’s unique in that it’s very easy to swap. A 2 gram charge of PETN would match the power of a .30-06 and leave 75% of the battery functional. Undetectable.
The surgeon who operated on Charlie Kirk said the bullet that killed him miraculously did not exit his neck, likely saving others from getting hit.
Turning Point USA spokesman Andrew Kolvet revealed on Saturday night that he had spoken with the surgeon who made the comments directly to him.
In a post on X, Kolvet wrote: ‘I apologize this is somewhat graphic, but in this case, the fact that there wasn’t an exit wound is probably another miracle, and I want people to know.’
The surgeon told Kolvet that the bullet ‘absolutely should have gone through, which is very very normal for a high powered, high velocity round’.
‘I’ve seen wounds from this caliber many times and they always just go through everything. This would have taken a moose or two,’ the surgeon told Kolvet.
A .30-06 bolt action rifle, the kind that was discovered hidden in the woods after Kirk was killed, is used to kill deer, elk, moose, bears and other big game animals.
The assumption is that Kirk was hit from the front and the rifle was a .30-06. But the assumed entry wound on Kirk’s left throat does not conform an entry wound; and neither does no exit wound, not with a round that powerful.
Recall the autopsies of JFK, the first of which said, truthfully, the exit wound was the rear of his head; then the second one said that was the entry would of the ‘magic bullet’ fired by the patsy Oswald.
An event of this importance demands a second or third autopsy by unquestionable experts, and it should be recorded. I doubt that will happen. ABN
UPDATE: She claims there is no blood to be seen in the video from behind Kirk.
There is blood in many videos from the front, and on them it looks like it is gushing from a classic exit wound.
This all fits with the notion that Kirk was shot from behind and to his right.
The projectile (maybe not a bullet) appears to have hit his right ear and and exited his neck’s left side well below his left ear.
I think we should keep in mind that the projectile might have been a mini-missile programmed to home in on Kirk’s earpiece and possibly to disintegrate upon exit or after a preprogrammed very small fraction of a second; this would explain why no bullet has been found, or claimed to have been found.
What Candace might have seen in the rear video is Kirk’s head move left rapidly as the projectile strikes, but not the bleeding exit wound due to camera angle or the position of Kirk’s head.
There are videos and photos of super fast mini-drones at the event; it may be that one of them fired a tiny mini-missile that killed Kirk.
Another possibility is, recall the Israeli-made cell phones that blew up in people’s pockets. Kirk’s earpiece may have held something similar but that acted like a bullet.
If so, the forensic evidence would show an obliterated earpiece, a projectile tunnel through his head, and the exit wound. This would look to honest investigators like a bullet had struck his earpiece and continued on to the exit wound.
This would also explain why we can see the wire connected to his earpiece fly up and away from his right ear; and why the thicker cable it was attached to was pulled up violently under his shirt in front and around the back of his neck.
Not sure if this is where the supposed Robinson shot was fired, but the question is still good. If your investigation is honest release the videos. Instead of fighting to keep the public in the dark, release the evidence and let the public help figure it out. Release the video behind Kirk, release all of it. ABN
…a few hours after hearing of Kirk’s death, I very gingerly raised these possibilities with someone well situated in conservative circles who personally knew Kirk, and was shocked by his response. He unequivocally told me that everyone in Kirk’s circle, even including important Trump Administration officials, suspected that Israel had probably killed the young conservative leader.
UPDATE 9/19: I have learned that the guy removing the camera is Kirk’s videographer and that he has turned the SD card over to the FBI. It’s very probable that guy is the videographer but it’s also probable the FBI will not allow us to view the vid, claim it was lost or damaged, or alter it. As of today, the FBI has not been credible or forthcoming in this investigation. ABN
