Newsmax Wires reports:

FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino told Newsmax on Monday that investigators have uncovered “significant developments” suggesting a broader network of people might have been involved in the assassination of conservative icon Charlie Kirk.

Bongino told “Rob Schmitt Tonight” the bureau is working to determine whether online chatter that surfaced around the time of Kirk’s murder indicates foreknowledge of the plot. He cautioned that investigators are still sorting out a timeline.

“The only question is the timeline that other people knew about the incident,” Bongino said. “Did they know before? Did they know afterward? … When you read some of the traffic, it’s unclear if that message was received before or after.”

Bongino confirmed much of the evidence came from the chat platform Discord, where suspected gunman Tyler Robinson, 22, was active.

“It is not a safe harbor to go on a platform and say, ‘I can threaten to kill or harass someone,'” Bongino said. “We’ll go anywhere to look for you if we believe you committed a crime.”
