The plot thickens surrounding the nearly fatal attack on Donald Trump last summer, leaving many to wonder if the truth is being hidden right under their noses. On July 13, Butler, Pennsylvania became infamous when a man named Thomas Matthew Crooks took aim at the former president. Surprisingly, instead of getting clarity, investigations reveal that Crooks may not have acted alone, and, shockingly, the FBI’s apparent stonewalling only deepens suspicions.
Leading the charge for answers is Doug Hagmann, who heads a team of private investigators dedicated to unpacking the layers of this assassination attempt. Unlike the FBI, which seems like it could win a gold medal in obfuscation, Hagmann’s crew is putting the pedal to the metal by applying geofencing analysis—whatever that is! They’re scouring data from devices belonging to individuals unconnected to Crooks but conveniently found at various locations, including the scene of the crime and even Crooks’ high school. Talk about a red flag parade.
Over the past six months, Hagmann and his team have interviewed more than 100 people in pursuit of the truth. They seem to have unearthed a strong belief that Crooks was merely a puppet in a larger game, supposedly manipulated by a network of conspirators. It’s almost as if the would-be assassin had a coach whispering down his ear about the finer points of marksmanship while cheering from the sidelines. The thought that some people at the Trump rally might have been involved is enough to make one’s head spin.
Bombshell Report: FBI Obstruction May Be Protecting Accomplices to Would-Be Trump Assassin: Do you think the FBI is doing everything in its power to learn how and why Crooks was able to shoot Donald Trump? https://t.co/qyKClV9sT1 pic.twitter.com/DlQHFMfcDQ

In an incredibly dramatic twist, Hagmann claims he faced intimidation during his investigation, escorted to the county line, presumably by either federal agents or security operatives. If they’re trying to stop the flow of information, one has to wonder who has the most to lose here. Crooks may have been the shooter, but the question looming over everyone’s heads is who else was pulling the strings. Meanwhile, Rep. Clay Higgins from Louisiana has also been raising the alarm about potential federal obstruction, adding another layer of intrigue to this already tangled web.
Higgins proposes that while some investigators believe there was a larger conspiracy at play, he sticks to the notion that Crooks was indeed a lone gunman, albeit possibly under the influence of prescription drugs. The emphasis here should not be lost: it’s not just the crazy person in the corner but rather a calculated strategy that might have put them there in the first place. Whether it’s pharmaceutical madness or powerful hidden forces at work, it becomes clear that the FBI’s inaction raises a suspicious eyebrow and calls their integrity into question.
As more time passes without satisfactory answers about the assassination attempt on the 45th president, the implications of a biased and ineffective FBI are becoming alarmingly clear. One thing is for certain: reserved interests within the government don’t exactly align with the American people’s choice in Trump. The longer the fog of confusion hangs over this case, the more it establishes a narrative of obstruction that could have congressional implications. All these mysteries seem less like coincidences and more like a high-stakes thriller with the stakes being none other than the safety of the former leader of the free world.
