FBI Announces They've Successfully Opened Would-Be Trump Assassin's Phone
Red State ^ | 7/15/24 | Bob Hoge

Posted on 07/15/2024 2:27:46 PM PDT by CFW

As the investigation into Saturday’s assassination attempt against former President and newly-minted GOP nominee Donald Trump at a Pennsylvania rally intensifies, the Federal Bureau of Investigation announced Monday that they have successfully gained access to the suspected shooter’s phone.

They have not revealed what information they’ve found on the device, but it is likely to contain a trove of information about the deceased suspect, 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks.

The FBI has not detailed any of the information contained in the phone. The agency began its investigation into Crooks and the shooting shortly after the Saturday attack. Agents went to Crooks' home and the home of his parents on Sunday and Monday. They are investigating the incident as an assassination attempt and possible domestic terrorism.

How about that trans shooter with the manifesto that we can’t see? Wasn’t she a lone wolfess?

TBH, I suspect deep state wouldn’t be sorry if something terrible happened to the millstone who refuses to go away.

Good point.

I thought it was policy to never discuss an ongoing investigation - or was that just on tv?

.22LR?

Some reports were ‘sounds like 22’

22LR at 150 yds still has sizzle. Enough to punch that tractor hydraulics? Are they looking for bullets? Did it go through the firefighter, or stay inside? A 223 seems to be able to pass through.

I am kind of building a case for an AR in 22LR.

Caller to Owen on InfoWars right now says it sounded like 22.

The official report said the father purchased an AR 556, which is Ruger’s version of the AR15.

They will discover that Crooks was a mentally disabled Ultra MAGA domestic terrorist who mistook Trump for Biden.
Case closed.

OK, I was spouting off like MSM.

OH, I’m not done. He could have a 22LR conversion.

What did George Orwell have? Wasn’t it a memory hole into which all history disappeared? The FBI is Orwell’s memory hole.

A shot to the face isn’t necessarily fatal.
