The attempt on President Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania was not a sleepy local incident — it was a brazen rooftop attack that left Americans asking how a 20-year-old named Thomas Crooks could plan and nearly carry out political murder in plain sight. Crooks fired multiple rounds from an AR-style rifle, killed at least one bystander, wounded others, and was himself killed by Secret Service counter-snipers at the scene, facts that no patriot can ignore when questions about accountability are raised.
For months the FBI told Congress and the public that investigators had not found a clear ideology or motive, and that Crooks appeared to have acted alone — a claim that would be reassuring if it were complete, but it increasingly looks like an incomplete explanation. The bureau’s public briefings emphasized an extensive probe yet left many of us with the uneasy feeling that the full digital trail hadn’t been laid bare.
Now conservative investigators and independent journalists say a different story is emerging from the internet’s shadows: a collection of previously overlooked or scrubbed accounts tied to Crooks that point to radical shifts, violent fantasies, and even involvement with niche online subcultures. The reporting alleges multiple accounts on platforms like DeviantArt, Discord, YouTube and others under usernames that researchers trace back to Crooks, including profiles that used they/them pronouns and hosted sexualized “furry” imagery. If true, these revelations underscore a glaring mismatch between what the FBI said publicly and what was allegedly visible online.
Tucker Carlson and other commentators have accused the FBI of stonewalling and soft-walking uncomfortable facts, and the controversy exploded when the bureau’s own rapid-response statements pushed back, insisting it never said Crooks had no online footprint. That pushback only raises more questions for those who watched the initial federal testimony insisting the shooter left no clear digital trail; patriot families deserve to know why apparently extensive online behavior was not reflected in public reports.
Conservative Americans are right to be furious — not because investigators might have missed pieces of the puzzle, but because the possibility of intentional omission would point to a deeper institutional rot. If investigators or agency leaders sanitized the public record to avoid embarrassment or political fallout, that’s a betrayal of every citizen’s right to full, honest information about threats to our leaders and our republic. The leadership of any law enforcement agency must answer, plainly and publicly, whether evidence was sidelined or destroyed.
We should demand an independent review with subpoena power, not polite press conferences and reassuring soundbites, so every trace of Crooks’ online life can be preserved and examined by neutral experts. Congress should compel disclosure of digital holdings, archived posts, and communications that journalists say exist, because trust in federal law enforcement cannot be rebuilt on the same thin promises that failed to prevent this near-tragedy.
Patriots don’t look away when official narratives don’t add up — we push until answers are produced. This is about protecting future rallies, protecting leaders, and protecting the truth. If the American people are to feel safe again, we need transparency, accountability, and an end to any culture inside federal agencies that hides inconvenient facts rather than confronting them.
