Thomas Matthew Crooks

- The assassins house was PROFESSIONALLY scrubbed

- His home was scrubbed so well there wasn’t even silverware left in the home

- No footprint on the internet

- No social media footprint (completely wiped)

- He was in a BlackRock commercial

- Joe Rogan says some individuals inside BlackRock may have “recognized that it's beneficial to them if he gets assassinated”

- There was never a formal report

- There was never press conferences where they detailed all the information they know currently and where the investigation stands at the moment

- He was a very young g kid there with a rangefinder (used to measure distances, very suspicious)

- CNN streamed it live, which Joe Rogan does not believe they did for any other rally. And certainly not for a rally that's in the middle of nowhere in Pennsylvania

- They wouldn't let people be on that roof because the Secret service lady said it was sloped and it was dangerous

- The snipers that were on the other roof was a, a steeper pitch (It made no f*cking sense)

- Random people saw him and pointed him out on the roof with a gun for a long time before it happened

- The kid had 5 phones

- His body was immediately cremated

- There was some indications that there was a phone that had been traveling from outside the FBI offices in D.C to where this kid lived multiple times.

HIS FAILURE WILL BE HIS ONLY SUCCESS "A Republican Horror Story" "Donald Trump is the necessary evil, not a leader, but a malignant echo of everything broken in us, wrapped in gold foil and broadcast in high definition. He will not succeed, because failure is the only thing he’s ever truly mastered. His legacy will be one of decay, truth corroded, empathy strangled, and reason drowned in the shallow end of a narcissist’s dream. And yet, it will be his collapse, loud and embarrassing, that jolts the world awake. Not as a martyr, but as a punchline soaked in gasoline. We won’t thank him. We’ll recoil from him. And in that recoil, we’ll finally see the outlines of what matters. His final act, unintentional and poetic: to fail so completely that humanity finds its spine again. And from that ruin, we will rise, not out of gratitude, but disgust. His utter failure will burn into the collective psyche like a scar, searing into memory exactly what happens when we hand the steering wheel to a ghost. He will fail, and in doing so, finally serve a purpose: to show us what must never be repeated."

Adjudicated vs. Convicted:

Adjudicated: If adjudication is withheld, you are not convicted in the legal sense, but the judge has declined to enter that conviction.

Convicted: If the judge adjudicates you guilty, it means you have been formally found guilty of the crime and are convicted of the crime.

The most influential person most Americans have never even heard of—Russell Vought—is quietly running the show behind Trump’s aggressive push to fire career civil servants and shut down entire federal agencies. Vought’s roots run deep in the right-wing policy world: he previously served as vice president of Heritage Action, the lobbying arm of the Heritage Foundation, and later founded the Center for Renewing America, a group focused on advancing Christian nationalist policies and opposing progressive reforms. His policy vision is anything but moderate—he’s a key architect and co-author of Project 2025, the Heritage Foundation’s sweeping blueprint to consolidate executive power, purge the civil service, and dismantle the very agencies that protect Americans’ rights, health, and environment.

As the main force behind Project 2025, Vought outlined plans to reclassify tens of thousands of federal workers as political appointees, making it easier to replace them with Trump loyalists and eliminate job protections. He’s advocated for slashing government funding, defunding agencies like the EPA, and halting critical regulations, all while casting civil servants as “villains” obstructing the conservative agenda. His section of the nearly 900-page Project 2025 document calls for an unprecedented concentration of power in the presidency, a move critics warn is constitutionally alarming and threatens the survival of democratic self-governance.

What Vought wants for America is a government remade in Trump’s image: smaller, more authoritarian, and driven by Christian nationalist ideals. He’s not just another bureaucrat—he’s the chief strategist behind the mass firings and agency shutdowns, intent on gutting the federal government’s ability to serve ordinary people. For progressives and anyone concerned about democracy, Vought’s agenda is a direct assault on the foundational principles of public service, equality, and checks and balances.
