Tyler Robinson Trial Motion Denied: Defense Delay Tactic Fails as Justice for Charlie Kirk Moves Forward

[00:00] I do have breaking news from the uh

[00:04] Tyler Robinson trial.

[00:07] Uh Blake, and you've been following this

[00:09] along with us. So, there was a motion by

[00:12] the defense to dismiss the prosecutor

[00:14] because one of the prosecution's team u

[00:18] other prosecutors on the team had a

[00:20] daughter there and apparently they moved

[00:23] to disqualify the entire prosecution

[00:25] because of this. A motion, if accepted,

[00:28] would have delayed this trial

[00:30] enormously. I think it's difficult to to

[00:33] overstate that. And the court has now

[00:36] denied the motion, which is great news

[00:39] for justice.

[00:40] >> Yes, it was just it was a big delaying

[00:43] effort. It was kind of a it was a hail

[00:44] Mary. You'd force out all the

[00:46] prosecutors in the office. Uh then they

[00:49] would have to send it to either the AG's

[00:50] office or a different county. You delay

[00:52] it for months. You muddle the case more.

[00:54] you drive people more into a a frenzy

[00:57] about things because as we've said the

[00:59] best counter to a lot of the wild things

[01:01] we've seen online that we've seen in our

[01:03] own inboxes that we've seen on X is

[01:06] people want justice for what happened.

[01:08] They need to see the process playing out

[01:10] and it's been so frustrating to people

[01:13] seeing how glacial things are moving.

[01:16] It's been frustrating to us above all.

[01:18] We're we're constantly asking okay when

[01:20] is there finally going to be a journey?

[01:21] When is there finally going to be a

[01:23] trial? They were trying to drag it out

[01:25] even further and very thankfully the

[01:28] judge did rule against this motion. So

[01:31] that means we're going to at least stay

[01:32] on the schedule that we'd set before. So

[01:36] here's the actual language. The court

[01:38] now reads its ruling. We're getting

[01:40] video just breaking which will be made

[01:42] available and posted later today before

[01:44] the court defends its motion to

[01:45] disqualify Utah County Attorney's

[01:47] Office. Defendant argues that highle

[01:49] prosecutor

[01:51] assigned to this case has a concurrent

[01:53] conflict of interest and because no

[01:55] efforts were made to screen him, the

[01:57] entire office should be disqualified.

[01:59] Again, this is coming from the defense.

[02:01] This is a judge ruling. Because

[02:02] defendant has not established a factual

[02:04] basis for finding conflict of interest

[02:06] or objective appearance of impropriety

[02:08] rising to a constitutional concern, his

[02:11] motion is respectfully

[02:13] denied.

[02:16] So, as we looked, so this was a big one

[02:18] that we were we marked on the calendar

[02:19] to see if this case was going to get

[02:22] delayed or if the speedy trial promise

[02:25] that we are afforded uh is well, in his

[02:28] case, as the defendant was actually

[02:29] going to be met. But yes, to Blake's

[02:30] point, this was a this was a delay

[02:32] tactic. It has been denied by the uh by

[02:34] the court. So, we're grateful there. So,

[02:36] next landmarks to keep an eye on. We are

[02:39] all eyes on May. So May is going to be

[02:43] the big month and that is going to be

[02:44] the preliminary hearing where the

[02:46] prosecution team, which will now stay in

[02:48] place, is going to present the mountain

[02:51] of evidence that they have accumulated

[02:53] over uh the course of these months

[02:55] against Tyler Robinson. I'm told a lot

[02:58] of this is evidence that you have not

[03:00] seen or heard before. Some of it was in

[03:02] the original charging documents, but

[03:04] there is going to be additional

[03:06] evidence. And you know, I I just hearken

[03:10] back to the words of Jonathan Turley who

[03:12] reviewed this case and said that if 90%

[03:15] if the if the defense was successful in

[03:18] getting rid of 90% of the evidence

[03:20] against Tyler Robinson, he'd still be

[03:23] found guilty and subject to capital

[03:25] punishment for his crime. These days,

[03:28] the online world moves fast. That's why

[03:30] Tik Tok approaches teen safety with

[03:32] families in mind from the start. On Tik

[03:34] Tok, teens get over 50 built-in

[03:36] protections right when they join.

[03:38] Accounts for teens start private by

[03:40] default. For those under 16, direct

[03:42] messages are turned off, and only

[03:44] friends can comment on their videos.

[03:46] That proactive approach means parents

[03:48] don't have to dig through menus or set

[03:50] up everything themselves. Safety is

[03:53] built in from day one, so peace of mind

[03:55] is already part of the experience. When

[03:56] safety comes first, discovery and

[03:59] creativity can follow. Learn more at tik

[04:11] And so to think that you could lose 90%

[04:14] of what we already know exists, still

[04:16] get a guilty verdict, but then there's

[04:18] even more that they haven't yet made

[04:19] public, mountains more potentially, is a

[04:23] very, I guess, comforting thought as we

[04:27] seek justice for Charlie. Blake, I don't

[04:30] know if you have any other thoughts on

[04:31] this matter, but no, I mean, this is a

[04:32] big moment. It is a it's just a genuine

[04:35] mercy. We're very happy to see it. Uh

[04:39] >> I think we have we can't talk about it

[04:42] as much for obvious reasons, but this is

[04:44] bit it's trying for us to observe it. It

[04:47] causes us a lot of stress to see updates

[04:50] like this and we do have to trust the

[04:53] process. And it's good when the process

[04:55] plays along and shows you what you want

[04:58] to see, which is this sort of thing.

[05:01] >> And we are loaded. We have the clip 404.

[05:04] >> The court now uh reads its ruling, which

[05:07] will be made available uh and posted

[05:10] later today.

[05:13] Before the court is defendant's motion

[05:15] to disqualify Utah County Attorney's

[05:17] Office. Defendant argues that highle

[05:20] prosecutor assigned to this case has a

[05:23] concurrent conflict of interest and

[05:25] because no efforts were made to screen

[05:27] him, the entire office should be

[05:29] disqualified.

[05:31] Because defendant has not established a

[05:33] factual basis for a finding of conflict

[05:35] of interest or an objective appearance

[05:37] of impropriy rising to a constitutional

[05:41] concern. His motion is respectfully

[05:44] denied.

[05:48] Good. And I guess we they they they're

[05:51] moving to a death penalty discussion

[05:54] upcoming. So, we're going to continue

[05:56] monitoring that. But this is I feel like

[05:58] been a really important show actually.

[06:01] You sometimes wake up in the morning and

[06:02] you don't know which ones are going to

[06:03] be important. When I saw that I think

[06:06] they're all important, but some are more

[06:07] more so. But when I saw that clip from

[06:09] President Trump, it was this moment of

[06:12] vulnerability from the

[06:13] commander-in-chief ahead of the what's

[06:17] typically considered the most or one of

[06:19] the most important addresses to the

[06:21] nation on the calendar. And so he's

[06:24] going to talk about,

[06:26] you know, the economy, the winds, focus

[06:28] on domestic tranquility and success.

[06:32] And

[06:34] overshadowing so much of this

[06:36] conversation tonight is this idea that

[06:40] the left wants political violence

[06:42] exacted upon its political enemies,

[06:44] conservatives. MAGA. God bless Chip Roy

[06:47] for addressing it in committee, but more

[06:50] work needs to be done. This needs to be

[06:52] rooted out at a very deep level. It

[06:54] stole our friend from us, the host of

[06:56] this show,

[06:58] whose name is still on this show. It has

[07:01] almost taken President Trump's life,

[07:03] countless others in the administration,

[07:07] and it is a paw that hangs over this

[07:09] whole country. It's a tragedy. It's an

[07:11] evil, and it must be blotted out. Pray

[07:13] for America. Pray for this country.
