The article from the New York Post by reporter Dana Kennedy, which claims exclusivity, is criticized for being months delayed and for not acknowledging prior investigative work concerning Thomas Crooks’ alleged involvement in an assassination attempt on former president Donald Trump. The New York Post article seemingly underplays the substantial evidence brought forth by other sources before, such as the investigatory work done by Private Investigator Doug Hagmann. He meticulously examined geofencing data, conducted interviews with approximately 100 people around the area, and allegedly faced obstruction by the FBI and unnamed law enforcement entities throughout his investigation.
In stark contrast to mainstream media, outlets like the Gateway Pundit have refuted the FBI’s assertion that Crooks accessed the roof of the AGR Building via a ladder he allegedly procured on the morning of the incident. Furthermore, the FBI’s narrative that body cameras were inactive and no footage exists between officers and Crooks during the incident is viewed with considerable skepticism. These claims were swiftly invalidated by diligent reporting from alternate media sources, contributing to more questions about the integrity of FBI statements.

Those who closely follow the ongoing coverage are already aware of this information, particularly the evidence that Crooks had connections frequently visiting high-security locations in Washington D.C., like the Secret Service and FBI headquarters. The FBI’s subsequent statement that Crooks’ motives remain unknown and their vague insinuations of foreign actor involvement, including nations like Iran, raise suspicions. As speculated online, Crooks’ supposed “overseas encrypted accounts” could likely refer to something as benign as a Coinbase or Protonmail account.

Platforms such as the Heritage Foundation’s OversightPR Project previously highlighted these data revelations, but mainstream outlets overlooked such explosive details. Moreover, questions surrounding the physical evidence—such as discrepancies in blood patterns, brain and skull matter, and the minimal damage to Crooks’ head—amplify doubts about the official narrative. Dr. Mollie James, speaking with the Gateway Pundit, made initial observations suggesting Crooks may have had a gunshot wound from close range, detailing this as a significant deviation from presented facts.
Perhaps most controversially, the lingering question remains unanswered as to why snipers positioned on the second floor of the AGR building allegedly watched Crooks on the rooftop, seemingly preparing to assassinate Trump for over 45 minutes. This occurred while a concerned crowd gathered, reportedly urging the authorities to intervene against the would-be assassin only 20 feet away.
