WASHINGTON (AP) — The gunman in the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump searched online for events of both Trump and President Joe Biden, looked up information about explosives over the last five years and eyed the Pennsylvania campaign rally where he opened fire last month as a “target of opportunity,” a senior FBI official said Wednesday.

In the 30 days before the attack, the FBI says, Crooks did more than 60 internet searches related to Biden and Trump, including seeking the dates of both the Democratic and Republican national conventions. FBI Director Christopher Wray has previously revealed that one week before the shooting, Crooks did a Google search for “How far away was Oswald from Kennedy?”

Looking forward to seeing how the MAGA elite spin this into their victimhood narrative.

    Just like hes faced justice for… all the other crimes he has committed? You trust a justice system thats historically protected the wealthy. Hes been impeached twice and yet still faces no consequences.

    I know that’s what the media tells you, and you eat it up, but just try to use some critical thinking. Please.

    Heres a simple fact. He called the guard to remove peaceful protesters, so he could go have a photo shoot at a church. But when violent protestors stormed the captial chanting “hang mike pence”, he did nothing but provoke them. Use your brain, he’s very much an accomplice.
