WAKE UP! Did the FBI claim the Trump shooter was ... a far-right terrorist?



In a follow-up congressional hearing on the assassination attempt on Trump, the FBI revealed a surprising twist regarding Thomas Crooks’ social media.

That is that he may have been a far-right terrorist.

The update comes after the FBI unearthed a social media account that it claims may be tied to Crooks. The account left around 700 comments between 2019 and 2020 and appeared to reflect “anti-Semitic and anti-immigration themes.”

“Some of these comments, if ultimately attributable to the shooter, appear to reflect antisemitic and anti-immigration themes, to espouse political violence and are described as extreme in nature,” FBI Deputy Director Paul Abbate said.

Sara Gonzales of “Sara Gonzales Unfiltered” isn’t convinced.

“I’m just wondering, do you trust the FBI?” She asks. “Do you trust the FBI’s anti-Semitism narrative?”

Gonzales then notes that Crooks had donated to ActBlue, an organization that funds Democrats, and was in a BlackRock commercial.

But Crooks' background isn’t the only thing that makes Gonzales skeptical of the narrative the FBI is now attempting to push.

“Do we trust the FBI to not feed us a narrative that they want to use against us, because this is the same FBI who is investigating grandmas who waved their American flags, who [were] led in, sent on a guided tour by Capitol Police on January 6,” Gonzales says.

“This is the same FBI who are calling parents domestic terrorists who show up at school board meetings. This is the same FBI who’s raiding pro-life protesters homes. This is the same FBI who raided Mar-a-Lago over some classified documents,” she continues, adding, “Do you trust them to not just feed you a narrative that is against half of the country?”

WATCH: FBI whistleblower exposes corruption at shady agency in NEW interview



It’s been over two weeks since Trump’s near assassination, and we still don’t know how a 20-year-old with no military or law enforcement background was able to weasel his way around the Secret Service.

According to Steve Friend, a former FBI agent who’s now come forth as a whistleblower, the FBI won't produce a result in its Trump Assassination Attempt Probe because that's not the goal of the bureau.

“The FBI loves to hide behind ‘we can't reveal sources and methods,’ ‘it's an ongoing investigation,’ ‘we're just going to drag this out as long as we possibly can until people either lose interest or there's something else that we can get our hooks into that's going to do better for us in the headlines,”’ he tells Jill Savage and the “Blaze News Tonight” panel.

“I don't have any confidence in them to actually carry forward an honest and forthright investigation of any kind because they've demonstrated themselves to be just a politically partisan organization, particularly as it pertains to Donald Trump,” he continues.

“Director Wray's testimony yesterday ... appeared to be more forthright than he's been in any previous congressional hearings,” says investigative journalist and Blaze Media correspondent Steve Baker. “Did you get that impression, or do you see something else?”

Friend speculates that Wray’s increase in candor is likely due to the fact that the Secret Service is under fire this time rather than the FBI.

“I think there's a lot of attention really being thrown at the Secret Service at this point. I think he, at that point, gave a little bit of an exhale,” he explains. “By and large, Christopher Wray has just done the exact same thing all the time, and I think it's derivative of one, he's a politically partisan guy, but secondly, he's not an outcomes guy.”

The American people “want to see an effective investigation actually transpire, where we get all the answers. [Wray] doesn't see that as success; he's about the process — process itself is success.”

“How do you describe Christopher Wray?” asks Jill.

Wray “made $9.2 million a year before he was brought in as the FBI director, and he gave that up for a $200,000 a year job for a 10-year appointment where he'd have to live apart from his family,” Friend says. “That's what his sacrifice was for — ‘the cause’ — and the cause was bringing cultural Marxism to its full fruition within the FBI.”

“You can see it in the hiring standards. ... They're bringing in people, at this point, who are 50 pounds overweight describing themselves as woke, and then most recently, you had somebody hired by the Washington field office who is an actual heroin addict,” he explains.

“Do you think this is a lost cause at this point?” asks Blaze Media editor in chief Matthew Peterson.

“Well, the agency itself, I think, is a lost cause because the reforms that are necessary to bring it back from the brink are so drastic,” such as “[reducing] its footprint from a headquarter standpoint,” “[getting] rid of the intelligence branch entirely,” “[getting] back to actually doing criminal investigations” and “not [concerning] themselves with intelligence gathering on the American people,” says Friend.

But there’s one simple thing that the federal government could do to make the FBI effective again: “take the guns away.”

“The origin of the FBI was an unarmed investigative agency,” Friend explains. “It can return to that, and it can do what Christopher Wray says that it is always intending to do and that is aid local law enforcement.”

CONNECT THE DOTS: Did Thomas Crooks meet FBI before Trump Shooting?

CONNECT THE DOTS: Did Thomas Crooks meet FBI before Trump Shooting?

Supermarket thieves pull off 'organized' heist as onlookers watch, record video. Even license plates were removed from likely stolen SUVs used in broad-daylight caper.



Who needs to work for a living any more when we're seeing, time and time again that all you have to do is mask up, fill a shopping cart, and casually walk out of any number of stores with no one daring to try to stop you?

And we already know that store employees are least likely to get involved lest they lose their jobs.

Well, the upside-down tragicomedy has spawned yet another sequel.

What now?

You could be forgiven for assuming the latest brazen, caught-on-camera theft took place in California, where lenient laws have emboldened many crooks.

No, this time it happened — of all places — in Oxford, Connecticut.

Cellphone video recorded four masked individuals loading shopping carts full of unpaid-for merchandise from the Market 32 store into a pair of SUVs just after 6:30 a.m. Tuesday, WFSB-TV reported.

The clip shows the quartet silently and frantically tossing items into their waiting vehicles as onlookers just watch and record video.

At least two of the witnesses likely were store employees, as one is heard on video yelling to another to not interfere: "Don't! You're gonna get fired! That's why prices go up because of these [bleeped word]. Can't get a job like the rest us."

And the caper continued with no resistance as the crooks soon entered their SUVs and sped off.

Here's the full clip:

CAUGHT ON CAMERA: Multiple people seen walking out of an #Oxford grocery store yesterday morning with shopping carts full of items they didn\u2019t pay for\u2026 Details from police -> https://tinyurl.com/2vaatza2\u00a0pic.twitter.com/CKlsdfMCNY

The suspects got away well before the arrival of police, who said they were notified about the theft a full 10 minutes after it took place, WFSB reported, adding that store manager wasn't commenting.

"Had 911 been contacted in a timely manner, police personnel would have been able to attempt to intercept those involved," police said in a press release, according to the station. "We would like to remind everyone to stay vigilant and not to engage with people like this when a crime is occurring."

Well-planned 'organized' heist

State police told WTIC-TV the four individuals in question are suspected of stealing $1,600 in goods such as detergent and paper towels, adding that a larceny of that dollar amount is considered a misdemeanor.

"Information sharing has developed leads that they are most likely going to be trying to sell those items on social media as well as in their communities that they live in," Resident Trooper Sgt. John Acampora with the state police told WTIC.

More from the station:

Police said at least two of the suspects have committed other crimes of this kind across Connecticut and outside of the state. Police believe the two vehicles used were stolen.

Police said they've identified two of the suspects but can't release their identities with the investigation ongoing.

"They were organized, they knew what they were doing, they had no plates on the car," George Temple, Oxford's first selectman, added to WTIC.

Anything else?

"It's very unusual that anything like that happened here, and I guess while it's good that it was caught on video so they might be able to get the guys, no one was doing anything about it," Vinny Brophy from Beacon Falls told WTIC. "They just kind of let it happen."

Mark Krassner of Oxford noted to WFSB that it's "terrible" that "people have to resort to this, but I think you're gonna see more and more of this, you know, with the price of food going up, everything going up."
