5,100 words to say WHAT? Here's a Grok condensation / summary....BUT, is any of this credible?
Core Assertion of the Video The FBI has deliberately suppressed Thomas Crooks’ extensive digital footprint and true ideological history to control the narrative surrounding the July 13, 2024 attempted assassination of Donald Trump.
Crooks Was Not an “Online Ghost” FBI claimed virtually no digital presence. Reality:
- Dozens of accounts linked by his published phone number and primary Gmail (tmcrooks7@gmail.com)
- Major accounts recovered:
- YouTube “Tom Crooks 2178” – 737 public comments (2019–2020)
- Two foreign encrypted emails (americangamer@gmx.com, bcook@mailfence.com)
- Discord, Snapchat, Venmo, PayPal (alias “Rod Swanson”)
- chess.com, Quizlet, two Quora accounts, Google Drive, Google Play (“Colossal Microwave”)
- YouTube channel suspended July 14, 2024 (day after shooting) for “violent criminal organizations” policy violation
Ideological Evolution (2019 → 2020)
- 2019–early 2020 (far-right/pro-Trump phase)
- Called Trump “the literal definition of patriotism”
- Called for killing Ilhan Omar, “the Squad,” immigrants
- “Every Trump-hating Democrat deserves to have their heads chopped off and put on stakes”
- Advocated dictatorship, civil war, “50 million AR-15 owners” storming D.C.
- “Cops can’t arrest me if they’re all dead”
- Early–mid 2020 (sharp leftward turn during COVID)
- Mocked Trump supporters as a “cult,” called Trump “stupid” and supporters “racist”
- Defended lockdowns and mail-in voting
- August 2020: “the only way to fight the government is with terrorism-style attacks… sneak bombs… assassinate politicians”
Disturbing Search History
- 700+ Trump-related searches
- Jack Ruby, Lee Harvey Oswald’s assassin
- “best places for mass shooting,” El Paso, Orlando, Oklahoma bombing, Dallas police sniper
- How to make napalm, Molotov cocktails, fertilizer bombs
- Hitler speeches (subtitled), 1933–1945 German anthem, American Nazi Party, “why gays need to go”
The Mysterious “Willie Tepes”
- YouTube user who engaged Crooks in final commenting period
- Aggressively pushed armed uprising and quoted Mao
- Username later traced to foreign Antifa sites and the U.S.-designated terrorist Nordic Resistance Movement
- Crooks’ public commenting stops immediately after this interaction
Alleged FBI Obstruction & Cover-Up
- Authorized cremation of Crooks’ body only 10 days after shooting (before congressional investigators arrived)
- FBI agents personally power-washed the rooftop crime scene the next day (normally outsourced)
- Unlocked phone in under 40 minutes and accessed encrypted overseas accounts, yet shared almost nothing
- Still ignoring 2025 bipartisan Senate subpoena for photos, videos, device data, and search history
- Refuse to release gun-range training footage or confirm if Crooks trained alone
- Crooks flew drone 11 minutes over rally site while Secret Service counter-drone system was conveniently down
- Misrepresented Crooks to Congress as a “right-winger” using selective 2019 comments while hiding 2020 leftward radicalization
Political Reaction (2025)
- Even under second Trump administration, FBI leadership (including Kash Patel) continues stonewalling, claiming “nothing there”
- Eric Trump publicly states he is “totally unsatisfied” and believes a conspiracy tried to kill his father twice
Bottom-Line Claim Thomas Crooks left a massive, violent, ideologically schizophrenic trail that directly contradicts the FBI’s “lone right-wing nut” narrative. Federal authorities have systematically hidden, misrepresented, and in some cases destroyed evidence to keep the full story from the public and Congress.
