It appears Charlie Kirk’s assassin, Tyler Robinson, have been “aided and abetted’’ by an “extended network’’ — alluding to “multiple warning signs” he gave leading up to the assassination.
The ‘Armed Queers of Salt Lake City’ is a marxist paramilitary group being investigated by federal authorities in the aftermath of Charlie Kirk’s left-wing political assassination.

Reported Sunday, law enforcement was already probing whether pro-trans online groups, sexualized animal-obsessed “furries” and others connected with Robinson had advance knowledge of his alleged murderous plans.
The groups include communities on the online gaming platform Steam, as well as Armed Queers SLC, which took down its Instagram page after Kirk was murdered.

Armed Queers SLC co-hosted educational workshops with Elm Fork branch of the John Brown Gun Club, the trans antifa perpetuators behind the July 4 Alvarado ICE facility shooting. Ermiya Fanaeian appears to have promoted these on her private Instagram.

Data Republican is reporting: State Department and UN ties to Armed Queers SLC leader now confirmed
First, credit to @SKDoubleDub33 for the crucial tip, PLEASE follow, they’ll be doing a podcast on this soon.
Here’s what you need to know:
🔻 Armed Queers SLC is under investigation for possible foreknowledge of Charlie Kirk’s assassination.
🔻 Their leader, Ermiya Fanaeian, was recognized by a State Dept–affiliated NGO, Utah Global Diplomacy, as a recipient of the “7 for 17” Award for advancing the UN’s 17 Goals
🔻 Utah Global Diplomacy has since scrubbed Fanaeian’s presence from their website. Unknown when this purge happened. The receipts remain.
Do I have this right? Armed Queers SLC is under investigation for a possible connection to Charlie Kirk’s assassination.

Per the 990 form with Utah Global Diplomacy (EIN 876128308), the nonprofit is a partner with the US State Department to cultivate emerging leaders and diplomacy initiatives.
In other words, she was selected to "help shape U.S. Foreign relations." Their words, not mine. pic.twitter.com/60krjc4m0i

Let me emphasize.
SLC Armed Queers is not "adjacent" to the honor that Ermiya Fanaeian got from Utah Global Diplomacy.
Utah Global Diplomacy specifically awarded her for her work with trans people, of which SLC Armed Queers is key.
This may be why they scrubbed their pages.

None of this is to suggest that the State Department had any involvement in the assassination.
But this IS the kind of person who is picked from a young age on to staff the State Department. @EagleEdMartin FYI.

🧵 There’s a lot of talk about Armed Queers SLC after Charlie Kirk’s assassination—especially since they suddenly deleted their Instagram account.
This thread explains who they are and what they stand for. 👇 pic.twitter.com/I0DvfAycRR

Origins and Purpose:
Armed Queers Salt Lake City (AQSLC) is a socialist LGBTQ+ collective founded in summer 2020 during the nationwide George Floyd protest wave.
📍 Based in Salt Lake City, it grew out of local Black Lives Matter marches and queer mutual-aid networks.
Organizers say they created the group to protect queer and trans people—especially Black and brown trans women—from harassment and violence, citing rising hate crimes and what they call “state and right-wing attacks” on LGBTQ+ communities.
Founders & Instagram Deletion
The group was co-founded in mid-2020 by Ermiya Fanaeian and fellow queer activists from Utah’s protest scene.
Fanaeian—known for March for Our Lives work—helped launch AQSLC to defend LGBTQ+ communities and promote socialist, anti-police ideals.
Other early organizers remain largely anonymous, consistent with the group’s collective identity and security concerns.
