The Butler Files: What the Biden FBI Kept Hidden for Two Years

In this episode of the 47 Morning Update w Ben Ferguson, Ben examines the latest FBI disclosures surrounding Thomas Matthew Crooks, the Butler assassination attempt, newly revealed evidence presented to Congress, questions about investigative transparency, and the continuing mystery surrounding the shooter's motives. He discusses the congressional response, comments from Attorney General Todd Blanche, testimony from FBI Director Kash Patel, and the broader implications for public trust in federal institutions. More than two years after the attempted assassination of President Donald Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania, newly released FBI records are shedding light on the gunman, Thomas Matthew Crooks. The disclosures reveal extensive planning, the use of aliases for firearms-related purchases, surveillance activities tied to the rally site, and previously undisclosed details about his background. Yet despite years of investigation, one central question remains unresolved: what was his motive? New documents provided to congressional investigators have reignited scrutiny of both the investigation and the security failures that allowed the attack to unfold. The revelations have also fueled debate over why key information only became public years after the shooting, and whether Americans have received a complete accounting of what happened that day.  Topics Covered: Newly released FBI records on Thomas Matthew Crooks Use of aliases and online firearms-related purchases Surveillance, drone activity, and preparation before the Butler rally Senate Judiciary Committee review led by Chuck Grassley Testimony from Kash Patel and statements from Todd Blanche Ongoing questions about motive, security failures, and investigative transparency Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.
