Trump-Iran plot?

Just picked this up, Mike Waltz claims shooter had overseas accounts. This getting stranger by the hour.

Republican Congressman claims Trump shooter Thomas Crooks had three encrypted accounts overseas and hints at 'Iranian plot' as FBI continues to investigate​

• US intel previously suggested Iran wanted revenge for 2020 assassination

The FBI is seeking to get access to three encrypted accounts based overseas allegedly belonging to Donald Trump's attempted assassin as they look to understand a motive for the July 13 shooting, a Republican congressman suggested.

Rep. Michael Waltz said he has been speaking with agents as the FBI continues to probe the attack, learning the bureau believes Thomas Crooks may have been linked to foreign accounts amid sensational rumors of an 'Iranian plot'.

'The shooter had three encrypted accounts overseas. At the same time we're having an Iranian plot,' Waltz said on Jesse Watters Primetime late Thursday.

'I think this is going to go much broader, much deeper... We're going to get to the bottom of this beginning Monday.'

Waltz went on to say agents are now looking 'to hold' US Secret Service director Kimberly Cheatle 'to account' over the assassination attempt, claiming they are 'p***ed' and 'frustrated' over the lack of resources they have been provided.

If all Iran was able to get was a 20 year old incel republican, then we've been overestimating them.

Most terrorists arrested here in plots are in the same age group.

That's all they need. You watch too many movies. 20 year old incels of republican or democrat are disposable. No one cares what happens to them.

Pakistani national charged with alleged plot to assassinate Donald Trump, other public officials: DOJ

A Pakistani national with purported ties to Iran was arrested last month on charges he plotted to assassinate former President Donald Trump.

abcnews.go.com

6 Aug 2024 ~~ By Aaron Katersky & Jack Date

A Pakistani national with purported ties to Iran was arrested last month on charges he plotted to assassinate former President Donald Trump and multiple other public officials, according to a criminal complaint unsealed Tuesday in Brooklyn federal court.
While the criminal complaint does not mention Trump by name, multiple sources familiar with the case told ABC News one of the intended targets of the alleged plot was Trump. Other possible targets included government officials from both sides of the aisle, the sources said.
After spending time in Iran, Asif Merchant flew from Pakistan to the U.S. to recruit hitmen to carry out the alleged plot, according to a detention memo. The person he contacted was a confidential informant working with the FBI, according to the criminal complaint.
Merchant, 46, is charged with murder for hire.
~Snip~
Attorney General Merrick Garland said in a statement. "The Justice Department will spare no resource to disrupt and hold accountable those who would seek to carry out Iran's lethal plotting against American citizens, and will not tolerate attempts by an authoritarian regime to target American public officials and endanger America's national security."
~Snip~
Investigators have said they've found no link between foreign operatives and Thomas Crooks, the 20-year-old shot and killed after he tried to assassinate Trump from a rooftop near the stage, but the arrest may help explain some last-minute adjustments to rally security.
"We were initially told that there was no Secret Service snipers coming but that was shifted either Thursday or Friday to indicate that there were," Pat Young, head of the Beaver County Emergency Services Unit, told ABC News. "We had been told that this is the first time that a non-sitting president had been allocated Secret Service snipers. So that threw up some alarm bells for some of our guys that -- why the sudden shift -- from one stance to the other?"


Commentary:
FBI confidential informant? Where have we heard this before?
After all the antics by the DoJ and FBI one has to question this report. Are they trying to make it look like the FIB is concerned with a Trump assassination plot.
Can’t help but think “how convenient”.
Is it a 'hey look squirrel' move to distract or is it truly factual?
First off there is no love from Pakistan for the U.S., and they'res allied with Iran.
Like the "Deep State" would have cared if Trump was assassinated,...the whole point was on July 13th he was supposed to die, get executed on live TV, it would have been win/win for them..

Just saw it on my feed. Good post.

Strange things happen.

History of organized crime in the last century includes the following:

Were the Jews involved with the Italian mafia?​

Quora
https://www.quora.com › Were-the-Jews-involved-with...
Not in Italy. In the USA the Italian (actually Sicilian) mafia and the New York- born Jewish mob became more or less a single organisation.



Now we find that Iran, subsidiary to the Democrat Party is kept on retainer for wet work.



No wonder Obama kept them invested and weaponized.



When Butler, Pennsylvania doesn't work, a call to Tehran is next.

A final target had not been selected by the time Merchant made arrangements to fly out of the U.S., according to officials.

Investigators have said they've found no link between foreign operatives and Thomas Crooks, the 20-year-old shot and killed after he tried to assassinate Trump from a rooftop near the stage, but the arrest may help explain some last-minute adjustments to rally security.

the whole thing is very very strange from the incompetent security of the perimeter to the strange lack of knowledge about the shooter or his motives .. 20 yrs old and no social footprint on the web ?? strange ..

Remember Trump chose the venue and requested secret service snipers.

Who was it then?

 

[yidnar]

Remember Trump chose the venue and requested secret service snipers.

its still very very strange that the kid with 3 overseas encrypted accounts has no social media footprint .. was a foreign entity involved ? is that why authorities have revealed very little about the shooter ?? are they being silent because they don't want to compromise the investigation ...
