Tucker Carlson sparks panic as he exposes Trump shooter's ties to foreign terror group

Tucker Carlson's latest exposé is sending shockwaves through MAGA circles after the former Fox News host suggested that Trump's failed assassin, Thomas Crooks, may be connected to a foreign terror group.

Carlson's investigative team released a 34-minute video diving into the online history of Crooks, the 20-year-old would-be assassin who shot Donald Trump at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania in July 2024. Crooks' bullet came within less than an inch of penetrating Trump's skull.

More than a year after the assassination attempt, the FBI has yet to release a clear motive for why Crooks tried to shoot Trump or whether he acted alone or in coordination with others.

Carlson's uncovered YouTube comments allegedly posted by Crooks from 2019-2020, revealing the shooter's long digital history of making calls for assassinations and political violence. Crooks' YouTube comments indicate he radically shifted his ideology from pro-Trump towards the far left.

During the final phase in 2020 of Crook's YouTube commenting, the shooter began interacting with a suspicious user 'Willy_Tepes' who appeared to encourage Crooks to commit political violence.

He wrote to Crooks on August 4, 2020, 'If a gun and a badge is all that is needed, then authority obviously comes from the barrel of a gun. We have more guns than they do ;)'

'There is no way we can avoid a war at this point, so you just better get used to the idea,' he added.

Carlson claims that Tepes's name is listed on a foreign Antifa website connecting him to the Nordic Resistance Movement - a neo-Nazi group based in Scandinavia which has been designated a terrorist organization by the State Department.

The deep-dive from the former Fox News stemmed from a tip he received from an anonymous...

For Cucker, “foreign terrorist group” means the jooooooos

"the Nordic Resistance Movement - a neo-Nazi group based in Scandinavia "

Federal law enforcement has engaged in for decades: promoting the “lone nut” narrative

There's no evidence that Maxwell Yearick is still alive. The lack of interest or follow up on the white van containing explosives with AZ plates that was towed from the scene is the dog that didn't bark.

I was reading that last night.

There are so many unanswered questions on the attempt on President Trump's life in Butler, PA that you could drive an 18 wheeler through them. I can accept that Ryan Routh was an unhinged leftist who acted alone; his attempt was super amateurish. However, the Butler attempt, with the numerous anomalies regarding the supposed assassin, the whole Matthew Yearick presence, the inadequate Secret Service protection, the hosing down of the crime scene by the FBI, the cremation of the remains of Thomas Crooks, and other items, is a classic case of a nonsensical narrative. The Justice Department is acting just like all administrations going back to at least Johnson: lie, deny, and accuse people who question the narrative as being unhinged.

If you want to contribute to the developing belief in some rightist circles that the Trump Administration is "meet the new boss, same as the old boss", you would behave exactly as Bondi, Blanche, Patel, and Bongino are acting.

LOL! Exactly!

Would FBI be able to tell if a moderator edited a post?
I’m a moderator on another site (not YouTube) — I tried editing an old post and there was no change in the post date. There might be a record of it somewhere else though.

Bondi, Patel = Do not trust.
Blanche = Don’t know much about him.
Bongino = I hope he hasn’t succumbed to the DS.
