The Federal Bureau of Investigation has identified 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks from Bethel Park, Pennsylvania as the āsubject involvedā in the attempted assassination of former PresidentĀ Donald Trump, it said in a statement on Sunday.

The political leanings of Crooks, who was shot dead by the Secret Service after the attempted assassination, were not immediately clear. Records show Crooks was registered as a Republican voter in Pennsylvania, but federal campaign finance reports also show he gave $15 to a progressive political action committee on 20 January 2021, the day President Joe Biden was sworn in to office. Officials have not publicly disclosed a possible motive.
Weāve had AR-15s since the 60s, yet you seem to think itās a new thing? Whatās new is the mass shootings, and theyāre far more rare than most think.
Anyhow, I have a few rifles, other than my AR, that would easily make that shot. Know why you hear about ARs all the time? Because the media hypes it.
Quick! Remember the horrific shooting in Maine? What gun did he use? I had a hard time looking it up at first because the media wasnāt talking about it. Weird, huh? It was an AR-10, and few know what that is, doesnāt make a hot headline. (Itās basically an AR-15, as are many, many other rifles.)
OTOH, I canāt think of any reason why our billionaire owned media would want us disarmed. Doesnāt make sense does it?
ā¬ļø Absolutely brain dead take.
