Donald Trump pulled off a historic political comeback on November 5th.
But he almost did not live until election day.
And a Tucker Carlson guest offered two chilling words about a planned assassination attempt on Trump.
Former CIA case officer discusses Butler, PA shooting
Former Fox News host Tucker Carlson recently interviewed retired CIA case officer Bernard Hudson.
Unlike many of his colleagues in the intelligence community, Hudson publicly supported Tulsi Gabbard for the position of Director of National Intelligence.
During a free-wheeling conversation, Carlson discussed Hudson’s support of Gabbard, but also asked him about other topics.
And Carlson was particularly fascinated by Hudson’s assessment of the assassination attempt on Donald Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania.
Still almost nothing is known about shooter Thomas Matthew Crooks, which both Carlson and Hudson found very peculiar.
The two were first puzzled by the shocking security breakdown at the venue.
Hudson pondered, “What I couldn’t understand is with all the drone tech available. Why doesn’t the Secret Service for all of its protectees, put a small number of drones over all these events? You know, you can put it up hours earlier, you know, just to pick up pattern of life and determine, you know, are there things that are going on right now. . .”
“Try harder”
The two moved on to the fact that Crooks remains a man of mystery.
Carlson asked, “If you were covering this—You’re a case officer. . .And they told you that story. Head of state, or the aspiring—the challenger to the head of state just gets shot. . .We killed the perp. But we don’t know anything about him. We don’t know why he did it. There’s no story whatsoever that would explain this or no relevant facts about the guy. What would your assessment be? You go back to your superiors. You’d say what?”
Hudson responded, “They’d probably ask me to try harder if I came up with that answer.”
Carlson could not help but laugh.
Hudson continued, “You would think you could get more information. You think you could know quite a bit about a person, especially a young person.”
“You can, right?” Carlson concurred.
Hudson added, “Yeah. I mean, I haven’t looked into his background. . .But yes. There’s—anybody born since 2000, you know, certainly has, you know, with the rarest of exceptions, you know, they’ve got some sort of footprint online.”
Crooks was essentially a ghost online despite only being 20 years old.
Hudson remarked, “You know, they’ve got a search history. They’ve got, you know, telephone usage. It’s very hard to not leave what they call ‘digital dust’ in your wake about who you are and where you’ve been and what you’ve done. I would think in a case where, you know, a significant crime happens, then it would be in the interests of the government to collect and make that known. . .”
At some point, the federal government will have to provide real answers about what happened in Butler, and who the shooter was.
