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.

They literally designed the software so they have no ability to open it for anyone.

2013 National Defense Authorization Act removed all illegality of the government using propaganda in its operations. (Lying)

Prior to that, it was a felony to lie to the American people. (Since 1948). Which is why I find it so ingenious that they target people for "misinformation". You can't have it just one way!

Yeah, I think the gun shots were still echoing when the press said, “He’s a lone wolf and he has no manifesto.” They figure these things out so fast, it’s very impressive.

You can know everywhere he went (his phone went) even without breaking it.

Who he texted, called etc… also.

Ok so some guy goes to a Trump rally with a ladder, sets it up next to a building near the President, gets a long gun in a large case, climbs up the ladder to the top of the building which he somehow knows is unguarded and only the rally goers notice any of it?

Yeah, I stopped believing the FBI after their TWA 800 investigation. I guess I’m getting old.

Oh, yeah, this will open the information floodgates.

We haven’t had anyone break down the number of shots or the make type of rifle, but they are really concerned about transparency and getting everything they know out there. </S>

Fantastic! Now they can pull out the guts and insert new ones....the ones that prove he acted completely alone, with no contact whatsoever from anyone even remotely associated with the dems. Kind of like whoever that doofus was who emailed herself.....who was that, anyway? Someone in the Obama orbit?

Now they can erase everything.

They can replace the data with their own. It's a test of their creativity.

I don’t know. A .308 round disfigured his face a little.

Picture of the shooter deceased.

They blew out the back of his head, his face was intact.

Viewer discretion advised.
