🚨 WATCH THIS CLOSELY. 🚨 Why was Phil Lyman laughing and smiling while discussing Charlie Kirk getting shot? And when asked if he saw what happened... why does he say “no” when later admitting he was a "witness to everything that happened"? He starts to talk about the assassination… then cuts himself off mid-sentence and freezes. His “friend” had just been murdered minutes earlier, so what exactly was he smiling and laughing about?
