On a tragic day at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, Thomas Crooks attempted to assassinate Trump, leaving the president wounded, two attendees gravely injured, and a local fire chief, Corey Comperatore, dead, while the nation watched in horror.

Fast forward to Friday, when FBI Director Kash Patel stepped into the spotlight to counter allegations from Tucker Carlson, the former Fox News host known for stirring the pot.

Carlson has been pushing a narrative that Crooks left a trail of violent online threats and might not have acted solo, even claiming access to the shooter’s Google Drive and old YouTube comments from 2019-2020.

He’s suggested the FBI is hiding something big about Crooks’ motives, painting a picture of a cover-up that smells fishier than a progressive policy seminar.

Patel fired back with hard numbers, stating the investigation involved over 480 agents, more than 1,000 interviews, and analysis of nearly half a million digital files across 25 online accounts.

Patel paints Crooks as a lone actor, not the tip of some hidden iceberg, leaving Carlson’s claims looking more like a ratings grab than a revelation. [ConservativeNewsJournal]
