Federalist CEO Sean Davis blasted the FBI for stonewalling Congress’s investigation into the first assassination attempt against President-elect Donald Trump.
The moment came during a Friday interview, in which Davis was asked by conservative commentator Tucker Carlson what information is publicly available about Thomas Crooks, the would-be assassin who tried to kill Trump at a July rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. The 20-year-old was killed by law enforcement shortly after the attempt on the incoming president’s life and information about his activities leading up to the shooting has remained scarce.
Davis noted despite the near assassination having occurred months ago, Americans “still don’t know” much about Crooks.
“It’s wild. This kid comes out of nowhere, manages to get on the roof, shoots President Trump, [and] fires eight shots before anyone even like remotely tries to bother him,” Davis said. “[He] was able to fly a drone there for like 10 or 20 minutes, did recon multiple times throughout the day, had … operable IEDs in his car, had a bomb in his house, and we still know basically nothing about him. It’s crazy.”
The Federalist CEO further referenced legal efforts by America First Legal (AFL) to acquire Crooks’ academic records, which indicated “he was a really good student” and a “smart kid.” The would-be assassin’s SAT scores and high school and college transcripts were among the documents unearthed by AFL.
Davis detailed how the lack of information about Crooks can be traced back to the FBI. The federal agency, The Federalist CEO noted, is in possession of Crooks’ “phone, his devices, [and] his computer,” but has declined to provide details of its findings.

What they need is another Warren Commission to make the coverup official.
There is WAY MORE to this story than Thomas Crooks. It was (and is) an inside job.
Man, has that whole thing ever been flown down the memory hole.
remember when that Fbi building blew up and America mourned? I’m pretty sure we’d clap these days.
They only tell us what they want us to know.
1. There are no coincidences
2. There’s a reason for everything
3. Every act and action has a purpose
4. Nothing slips through the cracks by accident
5. Even if you are paranoid that doesn’t mean they really aren’t after you
Like Watergate.
Parents were Trump haters too, yet nothing on them. Both had high-paid jobs in mental health and ‘were not questioning a low-wage kid having expensive items.
We were dirt poor, I knew everything my boys had, and I searched rooms too. Of course that was before computers/cells. Found the cigs I smelled on their clothes and Playboy mags. Punishment failed, they thought they hid them better. I chunked them in the trash.
A suspicious person might think the reason democrats weren't initially concerned about running losers like Pedo-Joe or Chuckles The Clown for the presidency
was because they didn't expect Donald Trump to be around on election day.
Pray for Trump. I know FReepers are, now more than ever.
People are pointing to the GUY ON THE ROOF WITH A GUN for over a minute and a half, AND THE SECRET SERVICE DOES NOT REMOVE TRUMP from the podium.
Someone could have run from the roof to the podium in that amount of time and yelled to TRUMP, TAKE COVER!
This is just not believable. And we are still being stonewalled.
I'm so old I can remember when some reporters and "journalists" did more than try to sell government press releases to us as actual news.
They are told to obey, or else.
That changes Monday at Noon. We’re done with this.
We want everything exposed, and rub it into the faces of every snide liberal and every Demoncrat AND GOPeahen in DC and elsewhere.
This episode of Tucker’s show is well worth watching.
There is WAY MORE to this story than Thomas Crooks. It was (and is) an inside job.
><
Yes, and yes!
“There is WAY MORE to this story than Thomas Crooks. It was (and is) an inside job.”
Yes, and the Secret Service was the motive agency to accomplish it.
That many people, making that many mistakes, all at the same time. They expect us to believe a fantasy — all just honest mistakes.
I don’t doubt you, but do you have a source?
