How to Make an Assassination Attempt Disappear With 1 Simple Trick
PJ Media ^ | Aug. 16, 2024 | Kevin Downey Jr

We are just over one month since a smelly, pimply-faced incel tried to assassinate Donald Trump. The FBI immediately began its "investigation," and that's when I knew we were in trouble.

Not only have we learned next to nothing about the shooter, 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks, but the mockingbird media mudpuppies have also memory-holed the shooting like it never happened.

Let's list what we know have been told by the vanilla, mainstream news yobbos about Crooks and his attempt to kill President Trump:

All this crap by the SS and FBI tells us all we need to know, IMHO: this was a deliberate state instigated attempted assassination. Indeed, it looks to me like Biden's apparent total breakdown about three days later was probably because by the delayed psychological impact of this failed assassination attempt on Trump.

“you’ll get reimbursed for the ladder after the training exercise”

Wray mentioned the alleged shooter had a receipt for the ladder.

You are correct!

I would also like to repeat that the liberal media is the biggest threat to our Republic. If the media did their job, we wouldn’t see the Democrats get away with this crap.

If you had a fruit store, and had a big
sidewalk display, you wouldn’t have to DO
anything to have it shopliftd bare.

Just don’t supervise it, and leave holes in
the security. Things will take their own
path, once The Eye is OFF the goods.

“We never learned about the phone that pinged near an FBI office in Washington, D.C. “

Anyone know what this means?

Was Crooks body cremated or not? The FBI released it for cremation but I can’t find a definitive answer.

Nope, the Congressional Committee is doing a good job of examination of the Assassination attempt:

• The 9th shot fired on J13 was from a Butler SWAT operator from the ground about 100 yards away from the AGR building. Shot 9 hit Crooks’ rifle stock and fragged his face/neck/right shoulder area from the stock breaking up. The SWAT operator who took this shot was a total badass; when he had sighted the shooter Crooks as a mostly obscured by foliage moving target on the AGR rooftop, he immediately left his assigned post and ran towards the threat, running to a clear shot position directly into the line of fire while Crooks was firing 8 rounds. On his own, this ESU SWAT operator took a very hard shot, one shot. He stopped Crooks and importantly, I believe the shot damaged the buffer tube on Crooks’ AR. I won’t be certain of this until I can examine Crooks’ rifle, but I’m 99% sure, based upon reliable eye-witness ESU tactical officers who observed Crooks’ rifle before the FBI harvested it as evidence. This means that if his AR buffer tube was damaged, Crooks’ rifle wouldn’t fire after his 8th shot.

The official FBI report on the investigation will say that... We in the FBI deny our involvement in the attempt to assassinate Trump, and we in the FBI also found that the secret service was not involved in the attempted assassination, and we in the FBI also determined that no one in the Biden administration was involved, and we also determined that Nancy Pelosi was not involved and neither was Schiff or Nadler or Liz Cheney or Kinsinger. That's our finding and w're sticking by it.

Crooks acted alone and no matter how suspicious the attempted murder looks, we had nothing to do with it and we'll continue to deny any involvement, no matter how much evidence is discovered to prove otherwise. Whatever evidence shows any government involvement, it can't be real because we control all the evidence and no real evidence will appear as long as we control it. So, there!

Important to know, no SS counter snipper teams had EVER been assigned to a Trump rally before J13.

I guess they needed to be sure the alleged shooter could not talk.

There is a program run out of hte HEritage Foundation that bought the data and “Geo-Fenced” the phone umbers associated with Crooks home and work. They tracked one of those phones to having visited a DC shopping center known to be an FBI meeting place.

Incel? I learned while watching Law and Order – SVU that it means involuntarily celibate. They are saying that since he couldn’t get a girl, he took a shot at a presidential candidate?

The UK Daily Mail today has two photos of Crooks at Butler obtained by Judicial Watch - one is of Crooks apparently talking on his cell phone to someone, the second is of him turning around to someone in back of him. Who was he talking to? Was he operating in cahoots with someone onsite? Why did he have three foreign bank accounts, how much money was in them and who deposited it? Why has the Heritage Foundation electronic tracking that showed someone repeatedly visiting Crooks’ home from DC near the FBI headquarters not borne fruit? Just who scrubbed the family home squeaky clean in the three hours after the shooting until the police arrived? If it were the parents that did the cleanup, how could they collect themselves to scrub the house after learning of their murdering son, the fact he had shot the President and killed a local fire chief? Why has the father’s only public comment been that he had to urinate? Crooks practiced at a local shooting gallery where a lot of federal agents practiced - did any of them know him? Why the hurry to cremate the killer? Why weren’t there multiple autopsies by experts of an attempted presidential assassin?
