We start with something good for you. Support comes from ZBiotics. I have to tell you about this game-changing product that I use before a night out with drinks. It's called pre-alcohol. ZBiotics pre-alcohol probiotic drink is the world's first genetically engineered probiotic invented by PhD scientists to tackle rough mornings after drinking. When you drink, alcohol turns into a toxic byproduct in your gut. It is that buildup, it's not dehydration, that makes you feel like you got hit by a truck the next day. So... Here's my story. The first time I tried Zebiotics was before a friend's birthday dinner. Cocktails, wine, you name it. Normally, the next morning, I'd feel like I ran a marathon in my sleep.
But this time, I woke up early, had my coffee, went for a nice walk, and I was shocked. So make Zebiotics your first drink of the night, and you can feel your best tomorrow. So go to Zebiotics.com slash lemon. For 15% off of your first order with code LEMON, that's L-E-M-O-N, it's backed by a 100% money back guarantee. Good morning, everybody. Thanks for joining us. I know that we are a little early. Shocking, right? But we start with breaking news this morning. As you can see, they are assembling a press conference, a news conference in Utah right now with the FBI and many of the agents involved. OK, so involved in Charlie Kirk's the Charlie Kirk shooting. the Charlie Kirk killing. And so, you see the officials there getting ready.
They had promised this press conference at the top of the hour, meaning an hour ago, and then they moved it back. And as you know, they also moved back in press conference yesterday. But, I want to tell you what we're hearing. We're hearing that the suspect has been caught. We have the suspect's name. It is a 22-year-old Utah resident. That is according to reports. And there's a name of the suspect. I want to wait until the press conference to give it to you. Hopefully they will start soon, but if they don't, Well, suspect Kurtz identified this according to sources. So NBC News is a legit source. So let's go through. We'll tell you what NBC News is saying. NBC News is saying that the identified suspect is reportedly Tyler Robinson, who's 22 years old.
We're getting the preliminary information from NBC News. Also, there are other reports from different news organizations. According to law enforcement sources, he was taken into custody as the alleged assassin, they're calling him, who killed Kirk at a rally at Utah Valley University on Wednesday. Apparently, he confessed to his father. OK, and then his father held him there for a while and then waited for authorities to come. How are we getting this information as we go back to this news conference and waiting? Some of this information came in from the highest source in the land this morning, and that was Donald Trump on Fox and Friends. We'll keep the photo, the picture of the press conference up.
And also you're going to see Donald Trump on Fox and Friends announcing what he believes to be a suspect in custody. Here it is.
Yesterday you were at the 9-11 memorial. We were all watching that. J.D. Vance was supposed to be with you. He went out to be with Charlie Kirk's family and to get the body back to his hometown in Arizona. And you said you were going to award him the Presidential Medal of Freedom, which is very nice of you. Any updates on the suspect?
Yeah. Can I always say, I think just to protect us all. And so Fox doesn't get sued and we all don't get sued and everything else. But I think with a high degree of certainty, we have him in custody. Right. In custody. Everyone did a great job. We worked with the local police, the governor. Everybody did a great job. you know getting somebody that you start off with absolutely nothing and we started off with a clip that made him look like an ant that was almost useless we just saw there was somebody up there and uh so much work has been done over the last two and a half days you know it's amazing actually when you start off with that and then all of a sudden you uh you get lucky or talent or whatever it is but yeah we're i think we're in great shape that's the person he's in custody
