Looks like some people were grooming another Tim McVeigh.

The revelation came as part of a CBS News report last week with the title “Trump shooter Thomas Crooks’ emails reveal a student dreaming of a bright future. And contemplating a violent attack.” Gotta love that order.
Indeed, the look at his emails provided CBS’ writers with one of those opens only a feature writer could love:
Thomas Matthew Crooks had a lot on his mind in January 2024.
The 20-year-old who, six months later, would open fire at President Trump at a Pennsylvania campaign rally — striking his ear and killing an audience member — was busy polishing his applications to transfer from community college to a four-year engineering program.
Crooks was gathering transcripts and asking friends to review his personal statement.
He was also designing a bomb.

Apparently, Crooks had placed an order for “more than two gallons of nitromethane from an online speciality fuel retailer using an encrypted email account.”
“Twelve days later Crooks’ purchase hadn’t shipped and he wanted to know why,” they reported.
So, he emailed the seller, Hyperfuels, to ask when it would arrive on Jan. 31, 2024.
“Hello, my name is Thomas. I placed an order on your website on January 19. I have not received any updates of the order shipping out yet and I was wondering if you still have it and when I can expect it to come,” he asked.
“Crooks used his community college email account to inquire about shipping, one of the few operational missteps that has allowed for a rare look into the dark side of this ambitious young student,” CBS reported.
Hyperfuels had been asked about the purchase last year and said merely that it was “aware of the whole situation.” It did not comment further for the piece.
But let’s talk about other stuff about Crooks! He got a 1530 on his SATs but had trouble with grammar and spelling. His favorite season was fall (according to an essay on the email account). He was a good student trying to save money by going to community college before transferring. He thought Trump’s nuclear weapons policies were misguided, and …

Is this in the official forensic report? Didnt think that a forensic report/investigation had been done as yet. We don't seem to be getting any of those any more.
This sure is a detailed report from CBS NEWS however!
!!!!!!!!!!

The public knew more about Lee Harvey Oswald within 12 hours of shooting JFK in 1963 than we know about this kid now.

Who was he calling repeatedly in DC, how did he learn how to make a large bomb and why did he have multiple phones?

I imagine no parents will be naming their kid Thomas Matthew for at least 10 years.
WAIT, democrats will name their born transexual, born with blue-haired babies--AND ferrets green haired Karen breastfeeds--- Thomas Matthew in full honor.

I'm pretty sure you can't just order chemicals like that without setting off red flags. So if the red flags weren't set off then there was exterior pressure to suppress the controls in place to prevent this from happening. Heads need to roll and it needs to happen quick. It's like we're watching a new season of "How to get away from murder Political edition" except Trump was lucky as frick
