Exposing a disturbing pattern of federal deception that raises serious questions about government accountability, Tucker Carlson’s explosive investigation reveals the FBI deliberately concealed crucial evidence about Trump assassin Thomas Crooks.
Federal Deception Exposed
Tucker Carlson received an anonymous tip in September revealing Thomas Crooks maintained an extensive online presence across multiple platforms, contradicting FBI claims. An investigator used standard tools to trace Crooks’ digital footprint across public records, uncovering two encrypted foreign email accounts, social media profiles, and financial app accounts. The FBI possessed Crooks’ complete YouTube history, including 737 public comments, search records, and watch history, yet deliberately told Congress and the public that no online trace existed.
When Carlson’s team confronted the FBI about withholding this information, agents deflected by questioning the account’s authenticity rather than explaining their deception. This represents a clear violation of transparency obligations to Congress and the American people, undermining constitutional oversight of federal law enforcement agencies.
Radical Political Transformation
Crooks’ YouTube comments from 2018-2019 reveal extreme pro-Trump views, calling the President “the literal definition of Patriotism” and advocating violence against political opponents.
He wrote disturbing threats against Democrat congresswomen and immigrants, stating that Trump-hating Democrats “deserve to have their heads chopped off and put on stakes.” These early comments demonstrate radical right-wing positions supporting Trump’s agenda and opposing liberal politicians.
During the early 2020 COVID lockdowns, Crooks underwent a complete ideological reversal, calling Trump supporters “brainwashed” and a “cult.” He embraced lockdown policies, dismissed deep state concerns as right-wing paranoia, and labeled Trump a racist. This dramatic shift coincided with mainstream media’s COVID fear campaign and anti-Trump messaging, suggesting external influence shaped his evolving extremist views toward violence against conservative leadership.
Suspicious Online Interactions
A mysterious YouTube user named Willy_Tepes appeared, encouraging Crooks’ violent rhetoric, writing provocative messages about gun ownership and resistance against government authority. Tepes made inflammatory statements like “We have more guns than they do” and warned against accepting a “global police state.” Carlson discovered this username connected to a foreign Antifa website linked to the Nordic Resistance Movement, designated as a terrorist organization by the State Department.
Crooks’ public commenting ceased after these interactions with Tepes, suggesting possible recruitment or coordination. His search history revealed a disturbing pattern, including over 700 Trump-related searches, queries about “best places for mass shooting,” explosive manufacturing, and assassination techniques. The FBI’s failure to investigate these terrorist connections represents dangerous negligence in protecting American political leaders from foreign-influenced domestic threats.
In May 2020, Crooks posted what Carlson described as a “digital manifesto” advocating terrorism-style attacks against government buildings and political assassinations. This explicit threat preceded his actual assassination attempt by four years, proving federal agencies had ample warning signs they chose to ignore or suppress.
Evidence Destruction and Cover-Up
The FBI’s suspicious behavior following the Butler shooting suggests deliberate evidence destruction rather than proper investigation. Agents ordered Crooks’ body cremated on the exact day House committees began their oversight investigation, preventing independent toxicology testing. FBI personnel personally cleaned the crime scene using water hoses, departing from the standard protocol of hiring third-party contractors for such work.
Federal agents accessed Crooks’ encrypted communications across multiple countries using Israeli software, obtaining extensive digital evidence never mentioned in Congressional reports. The Biden FBI mischaracterized Crooks’ political views to CNN, selectively highlighting early pro-Trump comments while concealing his later transformation and terrorist manifesto. This pattern of deception undermines constitutional checks and balances, preventing elected representatives from conducting proper oversight of federal law enforcement failures that nearly resulted in a presidential assassination.
