Clinton Foundation Timeline

President Donald Trump said Tuesday that the failed assassination attempt on his life in Butler, Pennsylvania, was a “Democrat Plot” and added that new information “was just found.”

In a post on Truth Social, Trump criticized the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) under former President Joe Biden for failing to “do what they should have with respect to the Lunatic” who shot him.

“Everybody knows the Crooked Joe Biden FBI didn’t do what they should have with respect to the Lunatic who shot me in Butler, PA,” Trump said. “By the time I got into Office, on January 20th, most of the information was missing, altered, corrupted, or gone. New info was just found!”

Trump continued to question why the information was not “seen long ago.”

“This was all a Democrat Plot, to get me out of the Election, that failed,” Trump continued. “Dirty Cop Christopher Wray should pay a price for the way he handled this assassination attempt, and certainly for the things he said.”

The 10 Weirdest Things I Found in the Latest Thomas Crooks FBI Drop

1. The FBI had the ladder. A private citizen found it in a wood lot in Bethel Park on July 17, 2024, along with Crooks’ rifle bag and his gun-club ID. A week later Christopher Wray told Congress “we did not find the ladder at the scene.” Technically accurate, but misleading. The ladder was 40 miles away, in FBI custody.

2. Agents were searching a specific dumpster for a third Crooks phone. They had two of his phones already.

3. A gun store in Edinboro, two hours from home, reported someone who looked like Crooks browsing for an hour with two other men, a month and a half before Butler. The file gives us no further details, but the suspect’s ammo purchase matched one of Crooks’ rifles.

4. The day before the shooting, he spent two hours on the range talking with an unidentified man. Agents ran plates. No follow-up included in the file.

5. Crooks’ apparent bag had weird stuff: a Stanley 12-foot tape measure, a red Sharpie, a Hyper Tough stapler, and a box of light-duty staples.

6. He accessed four encrypted Belgian email accounts. The FBI sent formal requests to two foreign governments for records on them. The files does not include whatever came from those requests.
