"I hope I can get through this part, Chaffetz told Faulkner on Thursday as he fought back tears. The president called me, and I was very touched by that. And he talked about his love of Charlie and his family. That man, Donald Trump, is a rock. That guy's amazing. Everything going on in the world and the president wanted to see how I was doing and wanted to talk about that beautiful lady and his family."
"I left that call late last night feeling like you have an FBI director who knows what he's doing and that's pouring every resource and that they were far ahead of what they could release to the public, he said. And so we wake up this morning, we keep getting these updates, I thought, that's the FBI that we signed up for."
Jason Chaffetz attended a Utah campus event where Charlie Kirk was shot and killed and gave an eyewitness account on Fox News. Chaffetz called into Fox shortly after the shooting and later described receiving a phone call from President Donald Trump expressing love for Charlie and concern for his family. Chaffetz praised Trump as "a rock" and said the conversation was very touching. Chaffetz also received a call and frequent case updates from FBI Director Kash Patel and expressed confidence in the FBI's resource commitment and handling. Some MAGA followers criticized Patel for social media posts about the shooting.
