President Donald Trump criticized the \u201cBiden FBI\u201d and its director Christopher Wray following new disclosures about attempted assassin thomas Crooks. Crooks, a 20-year-old, was shot and killed by the Secret Service after firing at a rally Trump was attending in Butler, Pennsylvania, in July 2024. The attack wounded three others, with one fatality. Trump alleged that the FBI under Biden failed to properly handle the case and accused Wray of misconduct, suggesting political bias and corruption within the agency.<\/p>\n

New FBI facts revealed that Crooks had purchased numerous gun parts and tools using the pseudonym \u201cBob Dole,\u201d with a rifle provided by his father shortly before the attack. An anonymous donor also paid for Crooks\u2019 cremation after his death. FBI Director Wray testified that Crooks searched online for details about the JFK assassination shortly before the attack and conducted drone surveillance during the rally. He also speculated that Trump might have been injured by shrapnel rather than a bullet, though later clarification confirmed Trump was indeed hit by a bullet in the ear.<\/p>\n

The incident and subsequent investigations highlight concerns about potential motives and the FBI\u2019s handling of the case, amid broader political tensions<\/a> and allegations of goverment misconduct. <\/p>\n
