FBI Says: Butler shooter’s motive unclear, but he definitely wasn’t politically motivated
American Thinker ^ | 08/29/2024 | Olivia Murray

Posted on 08/29/2024 9:10:01 AM PDT by SeekAndFind

New and emerging photos and details from the near-assassination of President Donald Trump don’t really make any sense, until you accept that the FBI is hopelessly corrupt; I’ve said this before and I’ll continue to say it, but the bureau is operating completely outside the authority delegated to the federal government by the Constitution, and the only lawful remedy is its complete abolition.

Here’s the story, from an article by Glenn Thrush, published by The New York Times yesterday:

Investigators — who performed an exhaustive search of his devices and online accounts — do not believe that Thomas Crooks, the would-be assassin who was killed by a Secret Service sniper, was motivated by a specific political ideology. They have found no evidence that he had any co-conspirators or connections to a foreign plot, F.B.I. officials said during a call with reporters on Wednesday.

While Mr. Crooks’s motive remains opaque, his online searches reveal someone who was looking for an opportunity to pull off a spectacular attack that would garner widespread attention, by either inflicting mass casualties or killing someone famous. Thus far, that profile more closely resembles that of a mass shooter than a politically motivated assassin.

So, after an “exhaustive” search through Crooks’s entire life, the “elite” investigative law enforcement agency doesn’t really have a clear motive, but they know he definitely wasn’t motivated by a “specific political ideology.” That explanation only makes sense if you’re blind and can’t see the facts, or if you’re deliberately ignoring what direction they’re pointing.

The political environment is poisoned, saturated in “Trump is literally Hitler” rhetoric, that those not voting Democrat are the “greatest threat” to “democracy” and America, conservatives are violent “insurrectionists” bound together by their racist and bigoted sentiments, and yada, yada, yada—with an attempt to take out the very figurehead

Right!
That makes perfect sense!
Just like James Hodgkinson was just drove to Washington to walk in the park (coincidentally near a republican softbase game) with his rifle!
Not polticlaly motivated though [because against republicans ;) ] /s

logical fallacy. You can’t prove a negative. To say it definity was not something is a logical fallacy. Statement is unprovable. Period.

Then it sounds like somebody paid him off to take out citizen Trump. Hmmmmmmmm. Probably the Russkis or the Fuzzie Muzzie pro terrorist college students.

The explanation makes sense if you simply assume that the fbi is intending to misdirect you away from the obvious. Of course it’s false, but then when did the fbi ever care about telling the truth?

This is ridiculous. It makes sense to break down the rifle to make it concealable.

But the backpack is too small as you can see.

It is unbelievable anyone would put this picture out even suggesting the rifle was in that backpack.

Did Crooks have a crush on Jodie Foster?

What a steaming pile.
They expect thinking Americans to believe this?

He was sport shooting the mosquitos around Trump’s head perhaps?

Perhaps, but the deep state agents who likely groomed him were.

I doubt if he were politically motivated.

John Hinckley wasn’t politically motivated.

His handler had Hinckley believing he was would impress Jodie Foster.

Crooks had buttons like Hinckley.

The folk that set this up knew what his buttons were.

This guy was a patsy.

Unlike Oswald this patsy was also a shooter.

Whether he was the lone shooter, I leave to those folk trying to make something out of the audio recording which I didn’t make anything of.

Not politically motivated? So perhaps he did it for the money?

The FIB never ceases to amaze me. What with their ever increasing lines of lies and fairy tales.

You'd have to check his offshore crypto accounts. And of course the FBI will never release that info either.
