Summer 2025The attempted assassination of President Trump on July 13, 2024, did not happen in a vacuum. From the instant he launched his presidential bid in 2015, shadowy elements within the entrenched power structure, the so-called “deep state,” actively plotted his downfall, employing every tactic imaginable. A relentless barrage of political attacks plagued his first term as president, and politically-driven legal attacks were unforgiving during his four years as a former president. His assured reelection in 2024, grew stronger by the day, absent, of course, any electoral manipulation.
President Trump’s reelection presented an existential threat to the established governmental order, especially given his experiences in and out of office. He had to be stopped by the deep state. By any means necessary. At the heart of this clandestine cabal lies the intelligence apparatus, its machinations skillfully amplified by a complicit corporate media – a willing instrument of the deep state's agenda.
It is against that backdrop that our continuing probe into the July 13th, 2024, assassination attempt on then-President Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania, is yielding increasingly troubling results. The incident defies simple explanation, leaving only three profoundly unsettling possibilities: a lone assailant whose near success was shockingly enabled by systemic failures across multiple levels of law enforcement; a meticulously planned attack orchestrated by a foreign power; or, most disturbingly, a conspiracy from within. The first possibility defies all odds, as I have covered in prior columns exclusive to Wisconsin Christian News, and there is no legitimate evidence to support the second theory. The last possibility, however, finds chilling corroboration in seemingly unrelated, disparate events.
There have been recent discoveries made by independent investigative journalists such as Julie Kelly, Darren Beatie, and others, in tandem with some recent comments made by the newly appointed FBI leadership, that appear to be tangentially connected to the Butler event. However, one must pay very close attention to the unspoken details, not to the information upon which the corporate media promotes.
Information is emerging that the planting of the J6 bombs was part of a larger, multi-faceted plot. They were intended to be a diversion from the electoral challenges at the Capitol, a short distance away from the devices. Much like Crooks at Butler, most investigative and public focus has been on identifying and investigating the perpetrator, however, not the devices. While the alleged Butler shooter has been identified, or so the official narrative suggests, the person behind the J6 bombs has yet to be identified, let alone charged. Dead men don’t talk, and unidentified persons have no voice.
Investigative Analysis
While much has been said about the events of the Butler shooting, discussion about the explosive devices in the trunk of the vehicle used by Thomas Matthew Crooks has been deliberately muted.
Our investigation determined that there are some inherent similarities between Crooks and the individual who allegedly planted the pipe bombs — evidence that strongly suggests that Crooks had a law enforcement “handler,” while the J6 perpetrator was either directly connected to law enforcement, political hitmen, or had a law enforcement handler.
The J6 bombs had one-hour kitchen style timers attached to them, yet were reportedly placed at least 17 hours before they would be found in two very conspicuous locations. And how they were found is an interesting story itself. “Investigations 101,” which does not appear to apply to former Director Wray’s FBI, teaches investigators to look closely at the person(s) finding such devices. A long investigative report could be dedicated to that alone.
Despite a half-million-dollar reward for information leading to information and arrest of the J6 pipe bomb suspect posted by the FBI leadership under Christopher Wray, no one has come forward with information — at least that we know about. Construction of such devices can be quietly accomplished, yet new videos released suggest the perpetrator was communicating with someone by cell phone. The narrative that we’re supposed to believe, according to the Wray FBI, is that the records from the cell companies were “corrupted” and therefore, not useful. Unsurprisingly, the cellular companies have denied this allegation, and the new FBI leadership is allegedly now on the trail. No matter, though, the identity of the J6 pipe bomber has been known to the former FBI leadership since “day one.” Whether sufficient evidence still exists to file charges, however, is another matter.
Troubling Signatures?
Every bomb has a “signature.” Ask any seasoned EOD expert. Whether it’s the materials, the manner they are constructed, other factors or a combination of all, they are unique. It’s the creator’s “signature.”
Recently, emerging evidence in the January 6th pipe bomb investigation suggests the FBI’s new leadership is on the verge of revealing the perpetrator’s identity. Soon. Simultaneously, investigators under Patel and Bongino are uncovering crucial details about the explosive devices themselves, revealing unsettling parallels between their construction and training devices used by the FBI and DHS prior to the January 6th attack. Now consider recently confirmed reports verified the presence of undercover agents and informants from the FBI, DHS, and US Capitol Police who, it is alleged, actively escalated the violence on that day — a day initially planned as a peaceful demonstration intended to convey a powerful message to our nation’s leaders. Tugging on this thread alone completely changes the narrative of an event the deep state media has been pushing: J6 rivals that of the attack on Pearl Harbor. Nonsense.
More importantly and much more deeply disturbing, however, is this pattern of alleged FBI involvement. History reveals a troubling template: in virtually every significant “terrorist” incident, from the 1993 World Trade Center bombing onward, the FBI has maintained embedded operatives who not only provided material support to the most extremist elements (and dupes) but also, in some cases, supplied the very explosives used in the attacks. Depending on the type, explosive materials contain “markers,” or ways to identify their origin. Components of street drugs do as well, compliments of the CIA, but that’s another column.
Given this history, the discovery of undetonated improvised explosive devices (IEDs) in the possession of Thomas Matthew Crooks in Butler on July 13, 2024, demands rigorous scrutiny. These devices, found inert in his vehicle’s trunk due to deactivated receivers, present many critical questions. After all, a detonator was found next to Crooks’ body, not far from a neat pile of shell casings reportedly ejected from his weapon. How odd that he apparently “forgot” to activate the receiver attached to the bombs yet otherwise executed his multi-faceted plan almost flawlessly.
Recently, our Butler investigation gained significant momentum thanks to a law enforcement source who witnessed very troubling conduct among US Secret Service agents and other federal and local officers on that day. Additionally, this source described the IEDs in Crooks’ car as pipe bombs concealed within ammunition canisters, noted certain similarities to the pipe bombs found on January 6th at the RNC and DNC — and the devices used for law enforcement training. This source is in a position to know. The implications of these similarities are staggering.
Forensic and comparative analysis of the Butler IEDs and the J6 pipe bombs — none of which were detonated — would definitively establish their provenance and manufacturing process; tell-tale signatures that would provide a much more nefarious, although accurate, picture. It would confirm what we strongly and reasonably suspect: both were inside jobs.
Breaking the conspicuous silence surrounding the explosive materials from J6 and Butler could blow the lid off (pun intended) two of the most diabolical plots in recent US history and identify the most treasonous and dangerous cabal ever to exist.
We, the people, deserve the truth. We seek accountability. We demand justice.
Pray for our nation.
