This Fox News morning newsletter (Fox News First) rounds up the day's top headlines, led by developments in the prosecution of Tyler Robinson, the man accused of assassinating conservative activist Charlie Kirk. According to testimony from an agent at a preliminary hearing, Robinson allegedly confessed to the killing in text messages exchanged with his partner, Lance Twiggs, in which he reportedly apologised and set out a motive. The hearing matters because it represents the first substantial public airing of the evidence against the accused in a high-profile case that has drawn intense political attention.

Alongside the Kirk case, the newsletter briefly flags a range of other stories: investigators presented findings on fired and unfired cartridges bearing engravings, and Kirk's family has demanded that the judge disclose hidden evidence from the hearing. Other headlines include President Trump warning of an alleged assassination plot, a socialist platform proposing to abolish the US Senate, unrest in London following Morocco's World Cup quarter-final loss to France, NASA's chief acknowledging unexplained aerial imagery, and controversy over Senator Bernie Sanders backing a candidate named Platner. Donald Trump Jr is quoted arguing that the evidence presented lays conspiracy theories about Kirk's killing "to rest".
