In a move that reeks of evasion and cover-up, the FBI is concealing records regarding its coordination with the Secret Service during the rally where an attempt was made on Donald Trump’s life.
Judicial Watch, a frontline watchdog, stepped up by filing a FOIA request on July 26th, demanding the FBI disclose all documents tied to its preparations and coordination with the Secret Service for Trump’s Butler, PA rally. Yet, the response? A big, fat stonewall. This lack of transparency leaves a cloud of uncertainty over why there was a delay in neutralizing Crooks before he could act.
Tom Fitton, the president of Judicial Watch, pulls no punches: “Why is the FBI hiding records on its and the Secret Service’s failures to protect Trump?” Fitton accuses the Biden-Harris administration of covering up the near assassination of a former president. The layers of concealment continue to add up, compounding public distrust in an already fraught administration.
Alarmingly, despite the gravity of the incident, the mainstream media seems to have conveniently forgotten about it, with coverage drying up within a month. This is more than just poor journalism; it’s a calculated suppression of information, keeping the public unaware and uninformed.
Further raising eyebrows, Thomas Crooks’ body was cremated just 10 days following the assassination attempt, a rapid disposal that many fear was a deliberate move to obliterate evidence. This isn’t just a procedural misstep; it’s a potential obliteration of crucial evidence, a way to wipe clean any tracks that might lead back to deeper, more systemic issues within our national security apparatus.
It’s high time America demands accountability and transparency. Before we invest another dime in expanding bureaucratic reach, maybe, just maybe, we should ensure our agencies are not only competent but are also not playing political games with American lives. The American public deserves better than the shadows and whispers governing our nation’s security.
