The FBI’s stonewalling over the assassination attempt on Donald Trump is nothing short of a disgrace. Here we are, nearly a full year after a gunman opened fire at a Trump rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, wounding the former president and tragically killing an innocent bystander. Yet, the nation still doesn’t have clear answers. Senator Ron Johnson had to subpoena the FBI just to get the bureau to cough up basic evidence like surveillance footage and ballistic reports. This isn’t just a failure of law enforcement—it’s a betrayal of the American people.
Why is the FBI dragging its feet? Why the refusal to be transparent about the would-be assassin’s internet searches, social media footprints, and even drone activity before the attack? If this had been some left-wing figure targeted, you can bet your bottom dollar the swamp agency would have blasted every detail within hours, if not minutes. But when the target is Donald Trump, the FBI suddenly clams up, showing once again where their loyalties lie—not with the people, but with the deep state and globalist elites who want Trump silenced.
Nearly one year since the assassination attempt on @POTUS, the American people still have unanswered questions.
I just issued a subpoena to @FBI to help prompt transparency, and I look forward to @FBIDirectorKash’s full cooperation.

This blatant cover-up only fuels the claims that the FBI, under this new leadership, continues to operate with the same old playbook of obstruction and bias. For all the talk about “reform” and “accountability,” the agency proves it’s still the political weapon we’ve always known it to be. If the agency can’t handle a straightforward investigation into a violent attack on a former president, how can Americans trust it to keep the country safe from real threats? The lack of cooperation with Senate investigators sending subpoenas is a glaring warning sign.
Even more disturbing is the absence of media outrage on this issue. Where are the supposed champions of transparency? The silence from so-called “mainstream” outlets on the FBI’s ongoing cover-up screams of complicity. They would rather bury the truth than question the incompetence and politicization of our federal agencies. This isn’t just about one attack; it’s about a system that protects the powerful and crushes dissent.
If Senator Johnson’s subpoena forces the FBI to finally cough up the truth, it will expose much more than security failures—it will reveal a deep rot at the heart of federal law enforcement. The question isn’t just who failed to stop this attack, but who in the swamp is actively working to bury the investigation for political gain. When will Americans wake up and demand justice, not just for Trump, but for the rule of law itself?
