The transgender ‘partner’ of Charlie Kirk’s alleged shooter shared a post online appearing to show support for President Joe Biden, Daily Mail can reveal.
Lance Twiggs, a 22-year-old wannabee pro gamer, and roommate of main suspect Tyler Robinson, 22, made the remark in a Reddit post seen by Daily Mail.
It has now been widely reported that Twiggs was transitioning genders, and was allegedly in a romantic relationship with Robinson.
Twiggs goes by the name ‘lancelotte’ on social media accounts including Instagram.
A Steam gaming account currently called ‘fluxalotl’ previously had the username ‘lancelotte’ as well as a slight variation ‘lancelott3’, and is friends with a user named ‘Craftin247’ – an account linked to the shooter.
‘Lancelotte’ had their ‘real name’ listed on Steam as ‘Lance’ – until December 11 last year, when the gamer changed it to ‘Luna’.
An account on online forum Reddit with the username ‘lancelott3’ posted extensively in a group for transgender issues, and in one conversation on the site mentioned that they were from Utah.
A post from the same account was made to the ‘Love for Landlords’ subreddit – where users share satirical posts pretending to show support for landlords.
Lancelott3’s comment read: ‘We are riding with Biden on this glorious subreddit’.
A post from one year ago by the same user also discussed medications to ‘slow beard growth’ and ‘get good hip growth’.

Lancelott3 also told members of an ‘ex-Christian’ subreddit that he ‘was told I was possessed by a demon and then within 30 mins kicked outta the house because I started laughing and wouldn’t go to the bishop for a blessing.’
Twiggs’ family appear to be conservative Christians, based on their social media profiles. His sister follows Kirk’s widow Erika on Instagram.
Daily Mail can also reveal that Robinson has been linked to a ‘furry’ website.
A username associated with the alleged assassin has an account on ‘FurAffinity.net’, a site catering to people with a proclivity for humanoid animal illustrations and dressing up in fur suits.
Many of the cartoon animal characters pictured on the site are in sexualized poses.
Robinson used the account name ‘craftin247’ on various videogaming and online accounts, his friends told Daily Mail.
There is an account by that name on FurAffinity, registered on July 22, 2025, two months before Kirk’s fatal shooting on Wednesday at Utah Valley University.
The revelation comes after law enforcement found bullets inscribed with messages including ‘Notices, bulges, OwO what’s this?’, a phrase associated with an internet meme often used by ‘furries’.
Other online accounts viewed by Daily Mail explicitly link a person called ‘Tyler Robinson’ to the username ‘Craftin247’.

‘Tyler Robinson’ had the username ‘Craftin247’ on payments app Venmo, and was friends on the app with people Daily Mail confirmed to be Robinson’s friends. A snapchat account with the name ‘Tyler’ has the username ‘craftin247’.
Three friends told Daily Mail Tyler was an avid gamer. An account on Steam, an online gaming platform, used the name ‘Craftin247’ with the ‘real name’ listed as ‘Tyler’, and a location in Utah.
The gamer also used ‘Donald Trump’ as a previous username.
The account’s user, which has a picture of Kermit the Frog for its profile, had played 2,148 hours of games on Steam with ‘10 years of service’ according to the gaming platform.
‘Craftin’ left mixed reviews on various videogames. In a review for pirate-themed adventure game Sea of Thieves, the gamer wrote: ‘if you play alone you will die alone’.
Daily Mail was the first news site to reveal Robinson was the shooting suspect and had been taken into custody.
And on Saturday Daily Mail exclusively revealed the identity of Robinson’s roommate in Saint George, Utah, as Twiggs.

Investigators spent all day Friday collecting evidence in an apartment that shooting suspect Tyler Robinson shared with a roommate
In a court-filed affidavit, police said the roommate shared with them incriminating texts from Robinson linking him to Kirk’s shooting.
They did not name Twiggs in the document, or accuse him of any crime, and said he is cooperating with the investigation.
One of Robinson’s friends, who asked to remain anonymous, told Daily Mail on Friday that the alleged shooter had a romantic ‘partner’ – and noted they were being deliberately vague about the person’s gender.
The friend went to Pine Valley High School with Robinson in Saint George, and occasionally gamed and chatted with him online in subsequent years.
Axios reported that six sources familiar with the murder probe told them Robinson was romantically involved with Twiggs.
The site, which referred to Twiggs as ‘the roommate’, said he was ‘aghast’ at the murder, and freely handed over his texts with Robinson to police.
Twiggs was part of a large group chat of dozens of gamer friends mostly from Robinson’s alma mater, Pine View High School, hosted on online chat network Discord.

According to the affidavit, Robinson texted Twiggs about hiding a gun wrapped in a towel and etching messages on bullets, details that match the Kirk killing.
One of the inscriptions on bullets recovered by the FBI said ‘Hey fascist! CATCH!’. Another said ‘Notices bulges, OwO what’s this?’
Police are reportedly investigating whether Kirk’s critical comments about transgender people caused Robinson to seek revenge, in an unrequested defense of his romantic partner’s honor.
A Wisconsin news site reported an interview with an unnamed member of Twiggs’ family who claimed that the 22-year-old ‘was in the process of transitioning’ and that he was dating Robinson.
‘He wanted to have lunch with other family members to introduce his boyfriend,’ the unnamed source told news site Wisconsin Right Now.
Twiggs’ grandfather Jerry Twiggs declined to speak about Lance’s gender identity.
‘I don’t want to comment on that. I’m not sure what his situation is exactly right now,’ he told Daily Mail, adding that he had never met Robinson.
Jerry also confirmed his grandson had been talking with the police, but that he had not spoken to him since.
‘After he was with the police, he’s been at his house, and there’s no way for us to contact him other than going over there,’ he said.
Robinson is set to appear in court in Utah on Tuesday after he was arrested on suspicion of aggravated murder, felony discharge of a firearm causing serious bodily harm, and obstruction of justice.
President Donald Trump said he wants to see the killer get the death penalty for the assassination of Kirk, whom he described as the ‘finest person‘.
Kirk, a father of two, known for his fierce MAGA views and debates with college kids across the country, collapsed immediately after being hit by the gunfire.
