Despite the FBI conducting 200 interviews and combing through 14,000 images they still don’t have a clear motive behind the attempted assassination of former President Trump at a campaign rally last Saturday in Western Pennsylvania.
Republicans are demanding answers.
Rep. Tim Burchett (R-Tenn.) who’s on the House Oversight Committee, told Fox News Digital that he thinks it’s “bulls—” that federal investigators don’t have a motive yet. (RELATED: Conspiracy Theories Or Valid Questions About Trump Shooting?)
“I’m not buying that they have nothing,” Burchett said Wednesday. “I don’t have faith in this administration. If they (the Secret Service) don’t want conspiracy theories, they have to move quickly and answer tough questions.”
Burchett said they subpoenaed Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle, who agreed to comply, according to the Oversight Committee’s post on X. A hearing is scheduled for July 22.
“Americans demand and deserve answers from Director Cheatle about the attempted assassination of President Trump and the Secret Service’s egregious failures,” the Oversight Committee said in its X post shortly before 7 p.m. Wednesday.
Wray told Congress that Trump’s would-be assassin, Thomas Matthew Crooks, used his cellphone to search for images of President Biden and Trump as well as symptoms of depressive disorder before the shooting, according to CBS News.

Secret Service snipers “neutralized” Crooks, who set up on a roof overlooking the rally less than 150 yards from where Trump was speaking.
How Crooks entered the building and fired off multiple shots remains under investigation and has led to finger-pointing between the Secret Service and local police.

Not one member of the Biden administration has even a faint aroma of veracity about them. They are identical twins of Obama and his administration. Corrupt to the core. Everything they say is another lie, layer upon layer.
Wondered how long and what the Democratics would come up on this one? Same old Democratic/Socialist lies When will it end? Put Trump back in the whitehouse!
Nothing honest or truthful comes from the Dems.
It’s not just motive. Where did he get his bomb making expertise? Where and how did he source all the bomb-making materials? How did he hide all of this from his parents? Or did he? Over what period of time were all these preparations taking place? And hundreds of other pertinent questions about the assailant that have not been answered.
It’s not just motive. The FBI wants us to believe they’ve done exhaustive searches, interviews, and investigation and come up empty on all fronts.
That’s what really makes this unbelievable.
