Say what you want about the FBI, but they
work fast. The Trump Assassination investigation is almost done! Bloomberg ran a story late yesterday headlined, “
FBI Says Trump Rally Shooter Appears to Have Acted Alone.” So there you go. Quit whining, it was
just another lone gunman scenario. America apparently has lone gunmen like coyotes have fleas.
Here’s what the FBI has come up with so far:
nothing. Remember
Die Hard?
HANS GRUBER: You asked for miracles, Theo? I give you the F-B-I.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation has been unable to penetrate the wily defenses on Thomas Matthew Crooks’s cell phone. It keeps asking for a passcode! The feds have no idea how Thomas, 20, got hold of his father’s gun. They don’t even know who to ask. Baffled agents are scratching their heads over what motive could possibly have led Thomas to create an elaborate and successful plan to penetrate the Secret Service’s defenses at Saturday’s rally.
FBI investigators also remain clueless as to why Thomas had a rudimentary bomb in his car trunk, or what it was intended for, if Thomas knew he was taking a one-way trip to the terminated assassins’ club? Why bring the bomb? No reason!
For additional reassurance, the article quoted FBI Director Chris Wray
and DOJ chief Merrick “Grandma” Garland, neither of whom said anything useful. This take may be a
little hard on the FBI, since they’ve only had one day —Sunday!— to work on the case, except for the fact that they
already concluded Thomas worked alone, which makes them fair game for merciless mocking.
Anyway. The FBI may be satisfied, but Coffee and Covid still has questions.
Trump golfs after shooting; FBI finds nothing; unanswered questions roundup; bizarre Blackrock connection; cops confront shooter without effect; mystery ladders; lone gunmen; more.
