Peter Doocy Provides Big Update On Would-Be Trump Assassin
Fox News’ Peter Doocy provided chilling details after a report this week indicated a possible connection between President Donald Trump’s would-be assassin, Thomas Crooks, and Tyler Robinson, the man charged with killing Turning Point USA’s Charlie Kirk.
“Insisting there is nothing helpful in Thomas Crooks’ digital footprint, there are newly discovered posts believed to be linked to Crooks showing him with guns and showing him with an affinity for assassins. There is a new push to visit bipartisan congressional investigation as investigators claim they were never briefed about any Crooks posts,” Doocy said on Fox & Friends while outside the White House.
“I want to know everything there is to know about this country. I think our country deserves it. I think our family deserves it. I think the world deserves it. By the way, forked credibility of the Secret Service, and I love men and women of the Secret Service, dear friends, better get the real story up. Lack of information could be
made public so far,” Doocy added.
“People at the FBI said the president assured them he is satisfied with the investigation of what he has been told. What are you to believe? People who brief the president or Miranda, Levine of the New York Post, or both, or maybe the president changed his mind,” co-host Brian Kilmeade said.
New reporting indicates a connection between Crooks and Robinson.
TPUSA spokesman Andrew Kolvet said the development is “a five-alarm fire,” responding Monday on social media to a report by New York Post columnist Miranda Devine.
Devine highlighted Crooks’ online interest in transgenderism and the “furry” subculture. Robinson’s roommate was described as his transgender partner, who also reportedly had a furry fetish.

Devine reported that investigators have provided little clarity about Crooks’ motive for attempting to assassinate then-candidate Trump in July 2024.
“Crooks was shot dead by a Secret Service sniper, but not before he killed rallygoer Corey Comperatore, 50, and seriously wounded David Dutch, 58, and James Copenhaver, 75, who were sitting in the bleachers behind Trump,” Devine wrote.
“There is something very wrong with the official story and that invites conspiracy theories,” she said.
Devine added that a source revealed new details from Crooks’ digital footprint, including posts showing he shifted from enthusiastically pro-Trump to openly hostile toward the former president and his supporters beginning in 2020.
“How can you people call others sheep, but you are [too] brainwashed to realize how dumb you are,” he wrote on Feb. 26, 2020.
“I mean literally you guys sound like a cult at times.”
In August 2020, Crooks posted that “the only way to fight the gov is with terrorism style attacks,” urging followers to bomb essential buildings and assassinate political leaders.
Rod Swanson, a former senior FBI agent and former chief of investigations for Nevada during the 2017 Las Vegas shooting, said there is no scenario in which the FBI would have missed Crooks’ online behavior.
“No matter how ridiculous the allegation, no matter if it’s COVID or not, somebody is going to knock on somebody’s door,” Swanson said.
“If they investigated that kid there’s a record of it and there’s an assessment that some leader made that this was not a threat or it rose to a level and they did something else.”
Devine also noted Crooks’ identification with “they/them” pronouns on the art platform DeviantArt, a major hub for the furry community.
She wrote that he showed a deep interest in anthropomorphized animal characters, often associated with sexual themes.
Lance Twiggs, Robinson’s roommate, was also reportedly involved in the furry subculture.
Turning Point USA’s Jack Posobiec said Robinson’s trial should be televised.
“There’s questions coming out about the strange relationship between Lance Twiggs and Tyler Robinson,” Posobiec said.
“Drug use, obsessions with ChatGPT, the furry lifestyle, black market HRT (hormone treatment).”
Both the Crooks and Robinson cases appear to involve similar underlying mental health struggles.
A NATIONALLY TELEVISED RECKONING: SENATOR JOHN KENNEDY READS AOC’S ENTIRE THREAD WORD FOR WORD ON AIR
When Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez took to social media to label Senator John Kennedy “dangerous” and declare that dissenting voices “needed to be silenced,” she likely anticipated a standard partisan retort. Instead, the Louisiana Senator delivered a calculated, unedited counterstrike that captured national headlines.
Bypassing Spin: The Unvarnished Record
Rather than trading insults online or issuing a press release, Kennedy carried the confrontation straight to a nationally televised public forum. Armed with a printed stack of records, the Senator took the podium, paused, and began reading AOC’s entire thread aloud into the microphone.
Every single post. Word for word. No commentary, no edits, and no interruptions.
The impact was immediate. By simply reading the text exactly as written, Kennedy turned the words themselves into the centerpiece of the discussion, forcing viewers to confront the rhetoric on its face without the buffer of online talking heads or social media spin.
The Constitutional Contrast
Once the last tweet was read into the record, Kennedy methodically dismantled the core premise of the argument. Drawing directly on the First Amendment, the Senator offered a biting, forensic critique of modern cancel culture and political double standards:
Free Speech vs. Political Censorship: Kennedy underscored the bedrock constitutional principle that no elected official has the authority to dictate who is permitted to speak or whose views are deemed acceptable.
The Receipts on Display: By contrasting the calls for silencing opponents against past defenses of radical speech, Kennedy highlighted what critics called a glaring standard of selective outrage.
Composure Over Outrage: Refusing to raise his voice, Kennedy let his trademark folksy calm underline the gravity of the constitutional stakes, turning the moment from a political spat into an indictment of authoritarian impulses.
A Turning Point in the Political Debate
The stark visual of a veteran senator calmly holding up public statements and letting them speak for themselves resonated widely, sparking an immediate frenzy across political broadcasts and digital platforms. The exchange shifted the spotlight from party lines to fundamental questions about accountability, public discourse, and the right to dissent.
By trading digital outrage for a live, unedited reading of the public record, Kennedy didn’t just answer a challenge—he forced Washington into a broader reckoning over the language of modern politics.

SENATE SHOWDOWN: ADAM SCHIFF’S GAMBIT CRUMBLES AS SENATOR JOHN KENNEDY DELIVERS A DEVASTATING TAKEDOWN
What began as a standard Senate hearing on intelligence reform erupted into one of the most explosive political confrontations in recent Capitol Hill history. Congressman Adam Schiff’s attempt to outmaneuver Senator John Kennedy reversed course dramatically, culminating in an extraordinary defeat that left the hearing room—and viewers across the country—stunned.
An Ambush Derailed
Schiff opened the session with an aggressive gambit, looking to steer the proceedings and dictate the narrative. Framing the discussion around intelligence protocols, Schiff quickly pivoted to launch familiar rhetorical salvos, attempting to put committee members on the defensive with sweeping assertions.
Kennedy, however, refused to yield an inch of ground. Known for pairing a drawling, down-home demeanor with razor-sharp legal acumen, the Louisiana Senator sat back, waited for Schiff to overreach, and sprang a meticulously constructed trap.
The Masterclass in Cross-Examination
Rather than trading partisan talking points, Kennedy methodically built his counterattack on raw documentation. Point by point, the Senator systematically challenged Schiff's record:
Dissecting past statements and intelligence memos line by line against verified committee findings.
Pressing hard on questions of procedural transparency, selective disclosures, and ethical boundaries.
Turning Schiff’s own past arguments back on him with unflinching, forensic precision.
As Kennedy tightened the focus on specific ethical violations and questionable oversight decisions, Schiff’s confident posture began to erode under the relentless questioning.
The Live-Broadcast Climax
The confrontation reached a boiling point when Kennedy introduced a critical piece of official correspondence into the record. The document struck at the core of Schiff’s defense, leaving no procedural exit.
In a shocking scene broadcast live to the public, the tension at the witness table snapped. Confronted with the unassailable evidence, Schiff’s own legal counsel hesitated, gathered their materials, and stepped away from the table—leaving Schiff isolated before the microphone without an answer.
The hearing room went dead silent. Schiff, deprived of both rebuttal and support, could only sit in stunned silence as the final seconds ticked away.
The dramatic clash has triggered shockwaves throughout Washington, with analysts hailing the exchange as a benchmark demonstration of rigorous congressional oversight and accountability.
