#AttemptedAssassination #Trump #Shooter
The fact that nobody talks about the forbidden book 25 Money Secrets From Donald Trump speaks volumes about how people are stuck in a trance
How does this have so many likes but not one comment? This guy Mark Jones account has only been active for 2 months and only 1 comment?
How pathetic are the Secret Service?
A TWENTY year old outsmarted them.
Secret service allowed it
I think you're right. @@krisc2476
@@krisc2476 Yep.
This is so evil. The whole internet is being censored
DEI SS
He was young, bullied, and obsessed with guns. This sounds super familiar like its a pattern or something.
Biden said:
“We're done talking about the debate. It's time to put Trump in the bullseye,” -Joe Biden. Then someone did.
Witnesses have said they told police about the shooter climbing the ladder to the rooftop. Before the shooting.
Witnesses have also said a local policeman climbed the ladder and the shooter pointed the rifle at him and he came back down. Again before the shooting.
It looks like the Secret Service snipers had acquired the shooter in their scopes about 42 seconds before the shots were fired.
Several shots were fired, hitting Trump in the ear and chest, before the SS snipers fired. Trump apparently had on a vest.
About the shooter.
He was featured in a Blackrock video at his HS.
He made donations to the Democrats.
He was seen on a video screaming in a rant about hating Trump and Republicans.
He registered as a Republican. (likely to vote in the primary to try and block Trump. This is a common Dem tactic.)
"Some Democrats voting in GOP primaries to block Trump picks" - AP.
he also thinks cops are fascists so
@@seagreen01 Yeah, gun nuts LOVE authorities yeah
The usual suspect
Who radicalized him towards these specific targets though ?
'new details' except none are new.
We all fell for the clickbait. They got us.
Thank you for saving my time!
I didn’t know he wore glasses
That’s why people never believe anything they say. Only Fox News, sky news can tell the truth

Zero new details
Fun fact: Rifleboy appeared in a BlackRock commercial.

They are also partly to blame for property prices being jacked up elsewhere, pretty much scalping, now they want in on bitcoin and trying to control that as well. It's fair to say they would like us to own nothing and be happy.
How can you not know the motive😂😂😂😂😂😂he didn't like Trump.
Yet he's a Republican?
I mean Lennon's assasin loved Lennon, and Reagan's (attempted) assasin wanted to impress Jodie foster. Sometimes there are some very strange motives.
@@clickbait3753not even close. Who are you trying to fool with that comment. He was a deranged lefty, plain and simple.
Because they can’t for sure say that until after the investigation and like someone pointed out the motive may have nothing to do with Trump he was just caught in the crossfire. This could have been away to gain attention this was the biggest event in that area this year in that community.
@@ResseDfa 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣He didn't like Trump.

Its The Truman Springer Show with an Idiocracy government!
Not able to cancel the feed either!
Do you think they still actually believe that we believe everything they tell us?
Yup.
Unfortunately, some do....
Look how many people took the jab…. People believe everything they hear
@@Lifeislove2lol... you’re yup is only half true.
Look how many people repeat what Rachel maddow spews even though her lawyers admitted in court she lies and makes up things and fabricates for her show and all her fans know it, and it’s entertainment not actual news. In an oddly overlooked ruling, an Obama-appointed federal judge, Cynthia Bashant, dismissed the lawsuit on the ground that even Maddow's own audience understands that her show consists of exaggeration, hyperbole, and pure opinion, and therefore would not assume that such outlandish accusations are factually true even when she uses the language of certainty and truth when presenting them.
What remains a mystery is how he got up on the roof. Why haven't they said anything about this?
This info is not new. Very disappointed.
Secret service really took their time to see what would happen.
I'm thinking they thought he was apart of security.
Can you blame them?
@@rogerthat4545 yes because they are getting all the blame, the entire security situation is absurd and i know for a fact that some people are getting fired and probably even go to jail
That's shocked me by looking back at the video. The policeman walked back and forward around the building when people alerted him about the suspect shooter. He looked not surprise at all when people pointed to the roof. What the heck was going on here!
@@nvn329 You can also see him calling it in. At that point Secret Service would have been alerted, and the sniper detail would be locked on the target. They waited for him to shoot before taking him out. That is clear at this point. The question now is why?
I call bs. Something stinks.
Biden failed again
Yeah it’s Drumpfs diapers

Exactly, the guy was connected to black rock, that alone speaks volumes

sad
@@jackieweaver7693 not like he can see it or anything
I only saw one guy. In a report that was deplorably thin.
Don't waste your 2 minutes... nothing new here.
Suspicious cannisters = Empty Natural Light cans
When did he registered as a Republican?
What is on his computer to reveal the ideological motives?
He posted a video saying "I hate Trump and I hate all Republicans". That's a very clear motive to me. As we saw on Jan. 6th and in many other protests where Antifa is present or radical democrats in general, they will pretend to be Republicans make us look violent. I have a video from Jan. 6th of Antifa being caught in the woods changing into MAGA gear. I have FBI documents that give the full report of a federal informant stating proud boys did nothing wrong and were the ones trying to keep order and civility when the feds were letting antifa in MAGA gear run a muck.
@@TomHuynh-x9l that has been removed
And when did he donate to the democratic
@@Nathan-d8d saw that on cnn
They will never tell how this kid got to this point.
His motive was he hates bullies. He’s been bullied all his life.
@@Michael_J_M14 And Trump is the epitome of a bully. The motive is very simple to understand. We all thought this would happen in 2016, 17, 18, 19, 20, and so on. Someone finally tried in 2024. Not super shocking, it’s Donald actual Trump.
Yep trump is a bully

I think he just looks like that.

@@longhair5860 That wasn't him.

Anyone believe that the FBI senior management can be trusted to investigate this event?
Not really. They let loose Peter Strzok who knowingly forged ahead in an investigation that was knowingly built on 🐂 💩.
Yup . Because they don't live in MAGAs fantasy land of White Grievance Politics.
Nope 🙅♀️
Did anyone believe Matt Damon would find the rat in The Departed? Same same.
Of course not. It's almost comical that anyone would even halfway suggest so.
When it's that easy, you can stop using the word security.
Things are not adding up yet. So strange.
The fact that his peers knew he was bullied except the teachers and parents goes to show as adults, you need to pay attention.
Or kids these days have a slightly different perception of what bullying actually is
@@mattschrader5047 Nah
@@duckmercy11 Yes, everything these days is over hyped
did anybody stop the think that the CIA or FBI sit this young boy up? do you think it's possible that this young boy thought he was actually working for them and that they wanted him to protect Trump? just thinking.
FBI investigating their own crimes again? Cue the “classmates” for the cameras! “He was bullied”. 😑
and that is not called terrorism???
His motive… really?
Well he was clearly a right leaning registered Republican.
So yes, a motive is unknown.
@@FloofyMinari He... wants someone more moderate? He's radical enough to murder but draws the line at Trump's policies? What would such a violent person have a problem with?
@@c.eb.1216 or he wanted someone more radical than Trump.

Kid graduated 2 years ago. What was he doing during the the 2 years after that???
His job at the nursing home was only during the last year. Why no current photos🤷
You bring hatred. So you get hatred.
the hatred comes from the leftist MSM
Funny that all the death threats were coming from the left.

Both his parents are psychologist. That alone is concerning
Dude, stop.

Went to school with a girl and both her parents were psychologists. She was bat crap crazy and had a whole pharmacy in her purse

Scapegoat
Secret Service we’re playing “Were’s Waldo!” When there was only Waldo?
Don’t bully people
"You know how kids are nowadays..."
How can someone be bullied for wearing a mask when everyone was required to wear one? what a world we live in.
And what happened with his digital history? Who deleted everything, all his accounts, everything he ever posted??
Ray Epps
Sounds like it had more to do with him being bullied than strong political views. Kids learn to demean and bully others from their parents. The kids who bullied him should be ashamed of themselves.
Sounds like the exact kind of kid to recruit for some reason.
Also he was in a Blackrock commercial.
No, people who make these ridiculous statements and excuses are the ones who need to be looked at. WHAT did you expect? Take a look back, as recently as the day before this happened. Listen to the rhetoric- from Joe and his cohorts, especially the fake news media. In true hypocritical fashion they’re now saying this violence is not acceptable 🙄🥺
@@jaredleicht1656I think his school was in the commercial. It’s not like he’s staring in it. So, yeah his face popped up a couple of times.
@musicalbenches
Sounds to me like recruiting strategies.
Motive was Nothing but hate
Political motivation
Bet you, the kids that said he was bullied were the ones that were bullying him.
FALSE FLAG
Is that your "belief" or do you have evidence? If no evidence, stop right there because it's non-sense. If you have evidence, bring it!
Bullying someone for wearing a face mask??
What was the motive for the secret service allowing it to happen?
The didn't "allow" it, they just failed to prevent it. It was Trump's decision to appear in a place which was exposed. I don't suppose the Secret Service can limit the places he chooses to appear.
There is no proof Secret Service allowed it to happen. Many of us saw the videos and agree law enforcement and Secret Service FEFFED UP ROYALLY, but I do not believe they allowed it and wanted it to happen.
THE 64 THOUSAND DOLLAR QUESTION IS: HOW DID A 20 YEAR OLD KNOW SO MUCH IN ADVANCE THAT HE COULD PREP, PLAN, AND SUCCESSFULLY BYPASS ALL THIS SAFETY AND SECURITY, UNDETECTED, AND EVEN WHEN WITNESSES SAW HIM AND REPORTED HIM.
ITS MORE AN EGO AND STICKING TO YOUR OWN PLAN THING THAT JAPPENS WHEN SIMEONE IN AN ELEVATED POSITION NOT J7ST THINK THEIR GOD THAT PLAY GOD AND ARE INCOMPETANT..
THEY SAY YOU CAN RUN, BUT YOU CANT HOD3.
C'mon guys, this isn't very hard to figure out. Kid got bullied most of his teenage years, has no real life goals because of this. Decided to show the world what he can do in an attempt to get famous. Just a very sad case!!
Bullied for wearing a mask to school. He graduated in 2022, so he was going to school during covid.
All his community is doing is providing a narrative of his own community gaslighting him into snapping.
online school lasted for 1 year and a half, high school is 4 years.
Schools were closed for Covid
He was also bullied for always wearing hunting gear.
Excuses Excuses had nothing to do with bullying
@@drasty2421COVID existed much longer than one year. I got COVID more than 3 years after the initial outbreak, in the first week of September 2023. I can assure you people, but not all, were wearing masks during this time period. In fact, some people are still wearing masks. Please start thinking critically for once.
He wasn't Republican, the address said the parents were.
"what goes on in people's homes, we just don't know"
Reminds me of Sherlock Holmes' observation on the peaceful rural life (from “The Adventure of the Copper Beeches” ):
"... But look at these lonely houses, each in its own fields, filled for the most part with poor ignorant folk who know little of the law. Think of the deeds of hellish cruelty, the hidden wickedness which may go on, year in, year out, in such places, and none the wiser."
Registered Republican donating to the dems? Also how did he scale the roof and how did he pass the NSS perimeter? Why was his social media closed?
The narrative that he donated to dens has been debunked. And how do you know is social media was closed? If it was, how do you know he didn’t do it before doing this?
@@DoYouLoveTheSilverHairedGod It hasn't been debunked. Try again.
Donation was 3 years ago, before he could even vote. He wore military clothes to school, was a gun nut and had no friends. He sure sounds like a republican voter
@@DoYouLoveTheSilverHairedGod No it wasn't debunked
STOP LYING. He registered as a republican voter and donated to the BlueAct or Actblue they say. $15. @DoYouLoveTheSilverHairedGod
Something is off with that kid that says he knew him from school. He was shown two different times in two different shirts saying, he was picked on. A loner, cause you know how kids are these days.
No.
I have 3 children. 22 yr old, 18 yr old , and 6 . Nobody talks like that! Especially 20 yr olds.
Sounds like someone elses words.
I don't like that part. Doesn't fit.
Then, there is the secret service not aware of a gunman ! Ample time to get multiple shots off!
No again.
Weird facts.
It's amazing how American media is reporting this 😂
How did he miss him?
Who hired him..??
The Trump Campaign
Piglosi
Melania . 😅
His motive was anti-bully.
Secret service failed..!!!
Okay, let’s talk about the elephant in the room. Why hasn’t anybody talked or report about the ejected shells from Crook's rifle? According to the sound analyst, Crooks should only have three shell casings that should be on or very close to the building he was perched on. There were at least 6+ shots. How many shells were left in the box of 50? Crooks shot his rifle from on top of the metal roof. The shells can't go that far away from where he was shooting. I wish the experts would answer these questions. Were all the shell casings or the bullets that were fired recovered?
A registered republican. that won't get reported much
His mom is a registered Democrat, his dad is libertarian and he’s registered Republican but donated to Act Blue. Doubt he was really a Republican. He probably just wanted to vote in the primaries
A Democrat donor.
@@jollypolly1686it was an older person with same name
It’s literally mentioned in every video
Wonder how stupid you'll feel when you hear the news say it over and over.
But that would require some self reflection.
According to some reports, it was a different Thomas Crooks who donated to the democratic group.
Why did they take off his shoes???
Bone Spurs
That’s crazy
A disaffected loner who wanted to make a name for himself.
What does it matter if he was a registered Republican or a Democrat why is the news media making this such a political thing The media I don't care who it is or nothing but a bunch of BS liars and storytellers
Nothing new here with your clickbait.
I won't be surprise that kid Jason is actually one of the bullies who is using this as an opportunity to get fame.
Was this the fastest scrub of social media ever? I haven't heard any reports with any mention of such.
One of the reports I saw said that Thomas Crooks simply didn't have much of a social media presence.
The FBI probably contacts the various outlets and asks them to take the accounts down before the name is even released
Everyone saying he had no social media to cover up why it was all down so quick. This investigation was over before it started. Lone wolf, nobody knows anything, just like always
@@mattschrader5047 Or maybe he just... didn't have social media. Some people don't. It's not uncommon. Not everything is a cover up or conspiracy.
@@willko88 If he was 20 and owned either a cell phone or a computer he has a digital footprint and that is simply a fact. The information from either of those devices will tell us EVERYTHING we need to know regarding motive. Period. You live in your reality, and I'll live in mine. Thanks for trying to enlightening me, but I'm all set
Did mom and dad know what their son was up to?
“What remains is his motive” you guys are digging & digging
Parents did not know about bullying or recognize behavioral probs? SMFH
I swear we as humans are still cavemen.
WHY WAS HE ALLOWED TO GO ON THE ROOF TOP???
Why does bro look like Jeffrey Dahmer 💀
I had that thought too!
Wow you are right 😱
Because they are two white guys with glasses.
FBI and CIA investigating themselves again?
INVESTIGATE BLACKROCK!
Wow! NBC actually mentioned his Democrat donation
Oh man 15$ that completely takes away from how he was a registered Republican. Just a quick question. How much has Trump donated to Democrats?
The donation was made by a different individual who had the same name (different middle name), a 50 yr old from a different city. Also, Crooks was a minor when the donation occurred 3 years ago.
Completely debunked and no longer relevant to this situation.
@@TheReptylle Yeah, the donation was debunked last night, ya know....before it was confirmed by media and law enforcement as being true. You cant even agree on the age and location of the "real" donor lol.
He also posted that he hates Trump and Republicans and supports Antifa And BLM
@liferx4343were they used?
PA is a closed primary state. Him being registered as a republican doesnt mean he was one. Just means he wanted to vote in the primary.
Exactly
His motive is clear as day, did you not see the video of him freaking out, saying he’s gonna go after all republicans??
How does a 20 year old high school grad out operational awareness the Secret Service? The C I A.....
Is that what he meant when he said, "there's gonna be a blood bath" ? 😂😅
How did they find his car
Nothing But Crap
