Crude diagrams of the church are present, alongside photos of the weapons. The materials include writings such as the names of past mass shooters, criticism of Israel, and the name of president Trump written on the guns. There are also racial slurs and nihilistic statements, all painting the picture of a disturbed individual who carried out this mass shooting.

By comparing photos, it's clear to me that Maxwell Yurek is the alleged shooter who tried to assassinate President Trump. Yurek, an Antifa member, was arrested at a 2016 Pittsburgh protest and sentenced to jail. My sources within Pennsylvania law enforcement say Yurek is a suspect with a history of assaulting Trump supporters. He seems to more closely resemble the corpse photo. Eyewitnesses saw the shooter, a man in his 30s or 40s, on the roof with a rifle. Videos show Maxwell Yurek being taken to jail for assaulting officers and rioting outside a Trump event. The internet has found the shooter's Steam profile with a review of the game "Mr. President" stating, "I hope this will prepare me for the real thing." His bio says, "July 13, watch this space." He has 132 hours on "Mr. President" but zero on aim lab. This was intended to kill Trump and start a civil war.

A social media account possibly linked to the shooter in 2019-2020 showed over 700 comments with anti-Semitic, anti-immigration, and violent political themes. The investigative team is verifying the account to confirm its connection to the shooter. Despite the shooter being deceased, the investigation continues urgently.

The discussion centers on Charlie Kirk and the handling of his death. The speakers are uncertain about the official account and call for a truly rigorous and honest federal investigation. Specific points raised include: - A claim that Canada said Egyptian-registered aircraft followed Charlie Kirk’s widow, Erika Kirk, around for years in various places; the speaker asserts this is factually true and notes it is a very strange data point, though its meaning is unclear. - A claim that Erika Kirk’s event had a disproportionately large number of foreign-registered cell phones, which is also stated as true. - The speakers emphasize that the FBI has a moral and legal obligation to investigate openly and to consider all possibilities, applying the same process as in science, journalism, and law enforcement. They express a lack of confidence in the FBI and the officials who run it, and argue that honesty and a coherent narrative are needed to restore public trust. - Foreknowledge of the incident is discussed: posts on X allegedly predicted that Charlie Kirk would be killed on the date of the college event in Utah. The question is raised about whether those posts were just guessing and whether those involved have been interviewed by the FBI to determine how they knew what they knew. - The speakers compare the investigation to other events, suggesting that if they investigated, they would examine who publicly posted foreknowledge and seek detailed explanations: who they spoke to, what they know, and how to verify it. - There is a request for an explanation of how the killer transformed into a radical, violent actor, with a note that the speaker does not automatically endorse trans ideologies but wants to understand the radicalization process. - The speakers discuss Candace Owens’ role: the controversy and turmoil surrounding her claims, and the idea that those in authority are responsible for the investigation, not individuals like Candace or podcasters. - A concluding sentiment expresses greater trust in Candace Owens’ intent than in the average DOJ official, framing Candace’s presence as filling a vacuum left by authorities, while insisting that the people in charge must restore confidence through honest reporting and a plausible narrative.

Speaker claims the shooter is not a lone actor but a “hive,” and says Thomas Crooks was “on the federal radar,” with an “80 page document” of his accounts and statements to be released. Crooks allegedly started as a Trump supporter, then radicalized around 2020, publicly calling for violence against the left and posting videos of himself shooting with no bullets. He cites a comment about “lining up a bunch of socialist Jews … blasting their useless brains out with an AR.” The speaker notes Crooks' online history shows him “always calling for violence” and that he later targeted Trump while researching assassinations, including “best places for a a mass shooting” and other searches like “fertilizer bomb” and “how to molotov make a molotov cocktail.” He suggests this points to “a program” similar to MK Ultra, claiming “they find these candidates in schools.”

Ongoing investigation on the active shooter leads us to 'a trans liberal with a Republican dad.' 'That'll create some division.' The FBI: 'Get in, Tyler' and 'Thirty three hours.' The FBI is described as triaging and 'hard at work coming up with a solid script to present to the public.' They propose using 'chat GPT to generate us a story of young gay lovers from the twenties.' 'We trusted you with the Epstein files. We definitely can trust you with this.' 'Trust your government. Noticing is antiseptic.' Officials claim 'we might have found our suspect texting his furry lover,' though 'nobody my age sounds like that.' They assert 'he disassembled the rifle to fit it in his pants' and say 'the suspect's father turned him in' after video enhancement. Critics ask, 'Seems like they could just show the actual footage' and ask, 'Do they think we're retarded or something?'

Today. Law enforcement officials have identified writings on the magazines of some of the weapons that were used by the gunman, hateful rhetoric, including words targeting the president of The United States, Donald Trump, invoking the holocaust and threatening the lives of children.

I just found out about this recent event. Someone attempted to shoot, but missed by a hair. The shooter was likely a white man. We were so close to solving half of the issue.

There have been new developments in the investigation. The suspect changed his work schedule before the incident, was seen with a range finder at a Trump rally, and later climbed onto a roof with a rifle. He aimed the range finder at countersnipers before opening fire on police. His car contained remote controlled bombs, loaded magazines, and a bulletproof vest. Investigators are still trying to determine his motives and what his intentions were.

Following mass shootings, social media platforms like X, Facebook, and YouTube often delete the shooter's social media presence during active inquiries. This purging of social media data makes it difficult for researchers and the public to understand the events and the shooter's mindset. The speaker is archiving what appears to be the social media account of a recent shooter but is concerned about potential future legal implications of possessing this data. The speaker questions why this information is immediately purged, asking if law enforcement requests it, if an archive version is retained, or if it's due to terms of service violations. The speaker seeks transparency from X leadership regarding this practice, as the Wayback Machine doesn't fully capture all posts.

Officials are investigating whether the Texas mall shooter was motivated by right wing extremism. The suspect, who was shot and killed by police, had an insignia on his clothing that read RWDS, believed to stand for Right Wing Death Squad. This insignia has been seen at extremist group rallies and protests. Authorities are looking into the possibility of right wing extremism as a motive.

These remarks were especially notable because they came at the final phase of Crooks' YouTube commenting. At that point, a new character emerged into the conversation, a user named Willie Tepes, who started pressuring crooks to commit violence. For example, quote, if a gun and a badge is all that is needed, then authority obviously comes from the barrel of a gun. We have more guns than they do. There is no way we can avoid a war at this point, so you better just get used to the idea. We have nothing to lose and everything to win. And the alternative, a global police state, is unacceptable. Nothing in life is simple, but that is no argument against doing it. So who is this Willie Tepes? Unfortunately, we don't know. The FBI hasn't made any mention of him in public, although they certainly know he exists. Just days after the shooting, somebody screenshotted Tepes' YouTube account page despite the fact he had very few followers. To the extent that he can be traced online now, you can find his username being used on a foreign Antifa website. Those sites link him to the Nordic resistance movement, which has been designated a terrorist group by the US State Department. That's all we know. We do know, however, that Crooks' online footprint abruptly ends after his encounter with this mysterious figure, Willie Tepes. Regardless whoever Willie Tepes is or was and what his motives may have been, who he may have been working for, there is no doubt that Crooks was ripe for recruitment by someone.

The speaker describes a bizarre and as-yet unexplained phenomenon surrounding a recent incident: people were googling the names of both the perpetrator and one of the victims—the young woman in Israel—before the event, which the speaker emphasizes as very strange. This phenomenon is presented as noteworthy and puzzling, with no further explanation provided within the transcript. Additionally, the speaker notes that Naved Akram was googled 15 times in Israel yesterday before the mass shooting. This detail is highlighted as part of the sequence of unusual online activity connected to the event, drawing attention to the pre-incident interest in Akram's identity. Beyond these observations, the speaker asserts specialized knowledge about firearms and the attacker’s technique. The speaker says, “I know about guns as you know, Hoz. I know about weapons.” This leads to a characterization of Naved Akram as an expert marksman. The speaker contends that Akram “handled the weapon exactly correctly,” with shots described as rapid but steady, contrasting them with “spraying” or wild firing. The assertion is that there was “no spraying” and that Akram’s rifle action was controlled, implying a high level of proficiency. Further, the speaker emphasizes that a bolt-action rifle is “a very difficult weapon for an inexperienced person to handle and to handle to such deadly effect,” underscoring the claim that Akram possessed significant skill. The speaker concludes by asserting that Akram is a man “who’s done this before,” suggesting prior experience or familiarity with similar acts. In sum, the transcript presents three core points: (1) a strange pre-event pattern of online searches for the perpetrator and the victim’s names, particularly in connection with the Israeli victim; (2) a note that Akram was searched online multiple times in the immediate lead-up to the incident; and (3) a detailed, unambiguous claim about Akram’s firearms expertise and method, portraying him as a trained marksman who executed a deliberate, controlled series of shots with a bolt-action rifle, implying prior experience with such actions.

The shooter had ties to a white supremacist manifesto and expressed interest in joining a far-right paramilitary group in Ukraine. The Azov Movement, formed during Ukraine's 2014 revolution, is seen as heroes by some Ukrainians but criticized for far-right ideology and controversial symbols. Azov's emblem is linked to Nazism, and the group has recruited from Neo-Nazi organizations.

There have been new developments in the investigation. The suspect changed his work schedule before the incident. He was seen with a range finder at a Trump rally, observed by security. Later, he was spotted on the roof with a rifle. When confronted by police, he opened fire. In his car, there were remote-controlled bombs, loaded magazines, and a bulletproof vest. Investigators are still trying to understand his motives and what he planned to do next.

Three people were shot and two died of the 17 year old teenager. We've spent a long time looking into this deeply, and we've designated him as a mass murderer and have taken down all his accounts.

"This morning, I can tell you that we have recovered what we believe is the weapon to be that was used in yesterday's shooting." "It is a high powered bolt action rifle." "That rifle was recovered in a wooded area where the shooter had fled." "So the FBI laboratory will be analyzing this weapon." "Investigators have also collected footwear impression, a palm print, and forearm imprints for analysis." "Now, I understand there are a lot of questions about motive." "I assure you that all leads, tips, and tips are being fully investigated." "As of this morning, we have received more than a 130 We thank the community for that."

These remarks were notable as Crooks reached the final phase of his YouTube commenting, during which a new figure, Willie Tepes, pressured Crooks to embrace violence. Tepes wrote, “if a gun and a badge is all that is needed, then authority obviously comes from the barrel of a gun. We have more guns than they do. There is no way we can avoid a war at this point, so you better just get used to the idea. We have nothing to lose and everything to win. And the alternative, a global police state, is unacceptable.” The identity of Willie Tepes remains unknown; the FBI has not publicly mentioned him, though they are aware he exists. Days after the shooting, someone screenshotted Tepes’ YouTube account page despite him having few followers. The user’s online footprint now appears on a foreign Antifa website linking Tepes to the Nordic Resistance Movement, a group designated a terrorist organization by the US State Department. Crooks’ online footprint abruptly ends after his encounter with Tepes. Regardless of Tepes’ motives or affiliations, Crooks was clearly ripe for recruitment; from early 2019 to mid-2020, his political views evolved and he searched for Trump more than 700 times online, as well as for Jack Ruby, the man who assassinated Lee Harvey Oswald. He submitted queries including “craziest chemical reactions,” “cars running over protesters,” “best places for mass shooting,” “mass shooting El Paso,” “Trump’s civil war,” “Orlando shooting reaction,” “firing an AR-15 as fast as possible,” “fertilizer bomb,” “how to make napalm,” “how to make Molotov cocktail,” “mass shooting Canada,” “Oklahoma bombing,” and “sniper in Dallas shooting.” He also searched for “American Nazi Party,” “German national anthem 1933, 1945,” “Hitler’s speeches with subtitles,” “neo Nazis,” and “why gays need to go.” Thus, a volatile, troubled, possibly mentally ill young man with a long record of espousing violence in public. The FBI clearly knew he existed. At the same time Crooks was making these posts publicly, the FBI was issuing contracts to private sector tech surveillance firms to harness mass data collection tools to monitor social media for people just like Crooks. It is hard to imagine Crooks, posting in his own name, had not been identified and looked at closely by federal law enforcement. The FBI had access to these YouTube comments, and instead of providing valuable insights, they selectively read them to mischaracterize Crooks’ thoughts. Two and a half weeks after the July 30 attack, a source familiar with the investigation told CNN that federal investigators were looking into a YouTube account possibly connected to Crooks that espoused political violence as well as antisemitic and anti-immigration themes. It wasn’t “possibly connected to Thomas Crooks” as the FBI knew it was Crooks’ account; the same day, the FBI’s deputy director made the same dishonest claim before Congress, and the previous week FBI Director Christopher Wray publicly questioned whether Trump was even shot. In February 2025, the New York Post reported that the FBI obstructed efforts to solve why Thomas Matthew Crooks, who left no manifesto, did what he did. The Post said this left local law enforcement, Crooks’ former friends, classmates, and teachers frustrated, and noted that the cremation timing raised concerns. Less than a month after the shooting, Congressman Clay Higgins of Louisiana, a former police officer, investigated in Butler and learned that the FBI released Crooks’ body for cremation ten days after July 13. Higgins reported that the coroner said Crooks’ body would not have been released to the family for cremation or burial without FBI permission. The cremation, the day House Homeland Security and Oversight Committees began investigations, made it impossible for investigators outside the FBI to verify the autopsy report; a new tox screen could not be performed because the body no longer exists.
