A law professor from Harvard has come under fire after falsely claiming that Charlie Kirk’s alleged assassin Tyler Robinson was ‘ultra-MAGA’, reports Daily Mail. Laurence Tribe sparked fury with his bold theory about Kirk’s accused killer, Tyler Robinson. He holds the Ivy League institution’s highest academic honor, ‘University Professor’.”Kirk’s apparent assassin seems to have been ultra-MAGA, exploding the GOP/MAGA attempt to pin the blame for this tragedy on liberals,” he shared in a since-deleted X post on Sunday. The liberal professor shared his message while reposting a ‘breaking news’ announcement from Occupy Democrats, which read that Robinson’s entire family is ‘hardcore MAGA.’ALSO READ: Charlie Kirk Podcast: How to watch the show?
