"The reality is, that as someone who receives an inordinate amount of death threats and I know the kind of death threats Charlie was getting and you can break down the death threats and where they are coming from. Shapiro continued, If we are not politically correct, then we understand if there's a shooting at a synagogue, it's very likely to be either a white supremacist or a radical Muslim. If it's the shooting of a Republican politician, then it's very likely to be a trans, ANTIFA, Marxist shooting."
"Here's what I was told so far, and I'll tell you what is wrong. First, I heard he's a registered Republican. Not true. Then he was a donor to Trump. Not true. His father works in the sheriff's office. Not true. There was a picture of him wearing a pro-Trump shirt. Not true. A member of the Democratic Socialists of America. Not true. We don't know what he is."
Bill Maher cut off Ben Shapiro as Shapiro tried to speculate on the shooter's political motives for assassinating Charlie Kirk. Shapiro claimed he received numerous death threats and suggested patterns lead to ideological attributions, asserting contemporaneous reports placed the shooter on the political left. Maher insisted there was no confirmed information and criticized swift, inaccurate online reporting. Maher enumerated several false claims circulated about the shooter — registered Republican, Trump donor, sheriff's-office connection, pro-Trump photo, DSA membership — and emphasized uncertainty about the shooter's political identity. Shapiro acknowledged he was not certain about the shooter's factional alignment.
