The assassination attempt on President Donald Trump in Butler has left Americans demanding answers—but federal agencies are stonewalling investigations. With eerie parallels to past political assassinations, from JFK to Ronald Reagan, the government’s refusal to release key evidence only fuels deeper speculation about Thomas Crooks’s true motives. What are they hiding?

Stonewalled Investigation Raises Serious Questions

The Congressional task force investigating the attack has faced significant resistance from federal agencies, including the FBI and Department of Justice. Despite major security failures that nearly cost President Trump his life, lawmakers have been blocked from obtaining critical evidence.

Rep. Mike Kelly, who has been leading the investigation, voiced concerns over the continued stonewalling. He called out federal agencies for refusing to release:

• Thomas Crooks’s communication records
• Witness interviews
• Details about his mental state and possible drug use

“They’re very good at stonewalling and then dismissing people as conspiracy theorists,” Kelly said. “Well, if you answered our questions, we wouldn’t be having these different theories.”

Mysterious Circumstances Fuel Speculation

Suspicion over Crooks’s background has only grown. Reports suggest he may have had multiple cell phones, and his social media activity before the attack remains largely unexplained. Even more alarming, the Heritage Foundation Oversight Project has reportedly traced cell phone data linked to Crooks back to Washington, DC, raising serious questions about potential connections.

Adding to the secrecy, Crooks’s body was cremated almost immediately after the autopsy, eliminating potential forensic evidence. Was this a routine procedure—or an attempt to erase critical evidence?

Rep. Eli Crane attempted to downplay concerns, stating:

“I’m satisfied that there was no effort to clean up or conceal anything in the Crooks home.”

Yet, with federal agencies refusing to cooperate, doubts remain.

Security Failures and Future Implications

The Secret Service has come under heavy fire for its handling of security at the Butler rally. How did an armed gunman manage to position himself on a rooftop with a direct line of sight to President Trump?

Even Trump himself has voiced his frustration with the lack of answers, simply stating:

“I want to find the answers.”

• Did federal agencies ignore key warning signs?
• Were there intelligence failures leading up to the attack?
• Was there a cover-up in the aftermath?

With Trump now back in office, Congressional investigators hope that they will finally get the transparency they’ve been denied. But concerns remain that critical evidence may have already been hidden or destroyed—just like in past political assassinations, leaving Americans without answers for decades to come.
