🚨 🔥 BREAKING: The Butler Story Just Got Stranger.
Newly released FBI records reportedly show a Butler County Sheriff’s deputy exchanged emails with Thomas Crooks before the July 13 assassination attempt against Trump.
The problem?
The records are heavily redacted.
That’s why this disclosure raises more questions than it answers.
What was discussed?
Why were they communicating?
And why is so much of it still being withheld?
The more information that comes out about Butler, the less settled the story seems to become.
@MeidasTouch@3inarow123 There are conceivable innocent explanations for what a 19YO kid would be communicating with law enforcement.
They need to tell us why he was.

FBI records obtained through a Judicial Watch lawsuit reveal that a Butler County Sheriff’s deputy exchanged two emails with Trump shooter Thomas Crooks before the July 13, 2024 assassination attempt. The records remain heavily redacted, concealing the nature of the communications. The documents also reveal a SWAT officer recovered a cell phone and a remote device with an antenna from Crooks after he was killed.
In this video, I say the obvious about Trump’s proposal to increase the military budget by nearly 50%: it’s a bribe to officers and soldiers so that they will side with him when he tries to overthrow the Constitution and stay in power indefinitely.

MAGA vets. Weigh in.
With the recent ICE funding, ICE now has more money that the entire United States Marine Corps. There are 204,000 marines and 28,000 ICE personnel. ICE now has 85 billion. The entire marine budget is 54 billion. This is absolutely insane.
What the holy hell is wrong with Congress. More importantly, what the hell did veterans vote for to give trump his own army?
It’s genuinely wild to see how ignorant @billmaher still is on this topic. He has fully swallowed the Trump/Netanyahu line on Iran, and seems genuinely shocked to hear the truth: Bibi was against the Iran deal BECAUSE it was working.
He and his allies wanted war, not peace.
‼️ Sen. Susan Collins failed to report up to $395,000 in stock trades.
- 24 transactions in Microsoft, JPMorgan Chase & CVS from 2013-2018 weren’t disclosed violating the STOCK Act she helped pass.
- Even a Pfizer purchase earlier this year missed the deadline.
The trend of billionaires investing millions of dollars in building apocalypse bunkers in New Zealand is a total waste of capital, and it demonstrates absolute divorce from reality.
For the sake of argument, let’s play this scenario out: let’s say, it gets real ugly, scarcity hits hard, there’s a drastic collapse of society, total supply chain destruction, food scarcity, the works.
Do they think their pilots won’t just shoot them once they land in Aukland? Their chefs and staff won’t cannibalize them the first chance they get? Or the locals won’t shoot wealthy Americans for sport?
That’s the major difference between the American wealthy and the European wealthy - the former are not invested in the health of their nation (they don’t see it as anything more than an ATM). Do they even have contact with the real world? They don’t have to wait in traffic and endure a crumbing infrastructure, they can fly over it in a private helicopter. They don’t need to deal with the hassle of the healthcare system, because they have private medical staff / concierge.
Elon Musk was against the development of public transportation system - like a subway - in LA, because you could end up riding it with a criminal, hence why he went for that overly expensive hyperloop tunnel system.
These people have no skin in the actual game, there’s no incentive for them to make America a healthy and safe society, because they have already built their apocalypse bunkers.
In contrast, think of the von Liechtenstein family - the royal family running Liechtenstein for 800 yrs now. The crown prince, Hans Adam III, drives his own car, uses public airlines (first class), walks the streets of the principality without security detail, and even opens the castle for citizens each year for celebrations, where he drinks beer from a plastic cup and hangs out with his citizens.
Why? Because he has spent his entire life making Liechtenstein a safe and prosperous society. He’s not afraid that his people would storm the Vaduz castle and hang him. On the contrary - years ago, they voted on a referendum to give him MORE powers, not less.
Many such examples.
The apocalypse bunkers are a waste of resources.
Every time I read that sanctions against Russia should not be made tougher because they might affect “оrdinary Russians,” I have one question.
Why is the world so concerned that Russians might have a less comfortable life, yet speaks far less about Ukrainians who are being kіІIеd every day by Russian mіssiles and drones?
Sanctions may cause economic hardship for Russians. But that hardship does not thrеаten their lives. It does not dеstroy their homes in the middle of the night. It does not burу their children under the rubble. It does not force them to wake up to еxplosions and live with the fеar of losing their loved ones every single day.
So what is the logic?
Why does the comfort of citizens of the аggressor state matter more to some people than the lives of those their state is kіIІіng?
For years, we Ukrainians have been paying the highest price -with our lives, our health, our homes, and our future. And when someone argues that Russians must be protected from the consequences of sanctions while remaining silent about protecting Ukrainians from Russian mіssiles, it looks like moral blіndness.
I am not concerned about the comfort of people whose state brings dеаth to my nation every day.
I am concerned about the lives of Ukrainians.
1/ Whatever Russian officials thinks they're achieving by hosting far-right influencer @RealCandaceO in St Petersburg, it's lost on Russia's warbloggers, who say they're dying of cringe. "They probably even licked the ass of that Yankee scum," one says appreciatively. ⬇️
The problem for the Democrats in the Senate is you can’t trust any polls taken before Republican attack adds start ramping up this summer
Talarico was leading both Paxton and Cornyn by only a few percentage points in polls a few months back and Talarico had like a 39-29 favorability rating
He will not have 29% unfavorable numbers by November. The GOP will put him underwater. The question is if he can win with -10 favorables instead of +10 after the GOP machine gets through with him
We drove back in from Austin this afternoon and got passed on 290 by a woman doing 95mph, while driving with her knees, because she was smoking, drinking a 4 gallon Coke and gnawing on a fried chicken drumstick. And you're releasing foreigners into this place in a week. -OS
@MikeGinsberg6 You can criticize Platner fairly, but it's not the Democratic party who promoted this guy. Politico reports that the immediate recruiters were two DSA members (Daniel Ezra Moraff and Leanne Fan) who had written extensively about tactics to undermine the Democratic party.
@slantchev If anything, the election of Trump in 2016 made full scale war more likely. It gave Putin more confidence in pulling off aggression. The GOP 2011 sequester made the US look weak to Russia as well. No reason to think Putin does anything else but lie.
Oh yeah I'm sure every MAGA has a copy of Persopolis, and Trump never would have launched this war had they not all read it. They're famous for reading history about other cultures told through the eyes of women.
Have you noticed that our political campaigns are almost completely devoid of ideas? No arguing over the size and scope of government. No arguing over America’s role in the world. It’s all personalities, “vibes,” and memes. Our political culture has been badly degraded. Its perfect symbol is that grotesque “cage” on the White House lawn.
