Interviewed on FOX News this morning at 3:30 AM ET, retired FBI agent Bobby Chacon commented about Crooks:

If we look at this as a suicide mission – he knew that he was going to be a martyr. .  . So what makes him so radicalized that he wants to become this martyr and kill Donald Trump? In my mind, the constant drum beat of comparing Trump to somebody like Adolf Hitler, when Hitler was responsible for the deaths of tens of millions of people, would be something that would radicalize a young person. If any of us had the opportunity to go back to the 1930s and assassinate Adolf Hitler, we might do it.

Authorities also found explosive devices in Crooks’ vehicle that was parked near the rally on Saturday, The Wall Street Journal reported Sunday. This news was followed by an Associated Press report that bomb-making materials were also found at the suspect’s home.

Crooks had no previous criminal history, according to Pennsylvania’s public court records, The New York Times reported.

His background reveals a mixed political profile. Although registered as a Republican, federal campaign-finance records show he made a $15 donation to the Progressive Turnout Project through the Democratic donation platform ActBlue in January 2021, according to the Times.

One audience member interviewed by the BBC on Saturday said he and several others repeatedly told the Secret Service and police about seeing the shooter stationed on top of the roof of a building minutes before the suspect began shooting.

Of course knowing what hitler became and did this far in the future. But it is impossible to say what any here today without that knowledge and living in the 1930’s would have attempted in Weimar Germany. Hitler did have many attacks on his life— the last being the non-suicidal Prussian Von Staufenberg who could have, but didn’t stay to make sure his bomb was in the right place. July 20, 1944. End of the war very different, and possible the Soviets wouldn’t have gained as much as they did during the year that followed.

What we know from “In the Garden of the Beasts” by Larsen— we know much about FDR’s first ambassador to Nazi Germany (and the State Department jew haters who loved them some hitler. Them being dems and machine FDR people— good Socialists like they are today—no surprise).

Who radicalized him? How about the NEA and AFT for starters.
