Let's rock and roll. Today is Friday, November 14, 2025 and we are ready for free for all Friday. Let's freaking go. T. Carlson is out with a monster report on Thomas Crooks. Thomas Crooks, the man who changed the history of Western civilization by hitting Trump in the head with a bullet. You know he intended to kill Donald Trump, but what man intends for evil, God intends for good. And what that ended up doing is actually solidifying all of President Trump's support with Elon Musk, RFK Jr. Making Donald Trump a legendary figure and then vaulting him, I would argue, in a much more aggressive manner into the presidency. Amazing how God works, but it's also amazing how evil works. And we know nothing about Thomas Crooks. Tucker Carlson has Thomas Crooks's metadata and released it this morning. And it is shocking. And more importantly, it shows that there was a massive cover up. Why does the federal government cover something up? In order to hide things from you. In order to hide typically their activities or the activities of another nation state from you. This is what happened with Epstein. This is what's happening with Thomas Crooks. This is what happened with 9 11. This is what's happening right now. Tucker Carlson just blew the freaking doors off of the Thomas Crooks story. There is so much more to learn, ladies and gentlemen. We are going to cover all of it this morning because we have been obsessive about this story. We went to Butler. We were the only people that went to Butler. We were the only people on the ground in Butler. I've seen the blood splatter from Thomas Crooks's dead body on that rooftop. And I am one of the few men on earth that can say that. And so we are not going to quit. We are thrilled that a whistleblower came to Tucker Carlson and gave him some remarkable evidence this morning about who Thomas Crooks was and what may have happened on that dark day. New Bombshell report exposes Comey cover up of Hillary Clinton investigation and hot damn. Did I just get off the phone with a very close DOJ source And expect a lot more from this. Ladies and gentlemen, the Trump administration is just about ready to drop the bombshell of all bombshells. Hot damn. Don't want to get ahead of myself, but here we go. Tim Burchette joins the show along with what I believe will be a number of other guests. But we are whipping the show. We were whipping the show together changed everything because Tucker dropped his expose just minutes ago and we are going to cover all of it right now. My name is Benny Johnson and this is the Benny show for fast breaking, quick breaking news. We are constantly and always live. You've seen a couple of technical errors this week. We will never not be truly live and we'll always cover the news as it happens. Breaking news. We want to make sure that we are building a live show for you. There's a lot of people that do a lot of different mediums and we believe there's important room in the Internet for something that is real and live and actionable right now. Patriot Mobile keeps us connected and keeps us locked in for these moments, moments when we like when I am like burning rubber to the studio and we are whipping the show together because something big just broke. You've seen it happen before. It's the reason why we were one of the only creators inexplicably live for like 12 straight hours on election night. Ladies and gentlemen, Patriot Mobile is the backbone of the company because they keep us connected. They can keep you connected and locked in to the world around you. They're also a Christian conservative company that believes in free speech and that's very important.

That's patriot mobile.com Benny 972 patriot patriot mobile.com Benny just, just really quickly off the top of the dome, we had a turning point event last night. Indeed. This is the only one you need to show this. This is all we need to put up. I want to get to everything. We have so much of a show to do today and I just cannot express enough how thankful we are to the hundreds of students that showed up last night. Absolutely packed out and such a dynamic audience. Great questions with Byron. Donald's a huge. Can you click on the photo please? A huge, huge event that was just like a really great to just vibe with the students. There's a University of Florida, a place Called Gainesville. We had Byron Donald's on stage and we just took questions for like two hours. That's it. Stop lecturing these kids. Stop barking at them. Stop treating them like they're dumb. Why don't you. We listen to them. This is what Charlie did. And it did. It was majestic. His capacity to actually lock in and listen and pray, frankly, with some of the students. We did prayer last night. One of the students came up to me and just wanted to pray over us. And with us it's just our great and distinct honor. And you know, I did a lot of FaceTimes with a lot of moms last night. I don't know how to explain that other than to just tell you about this. We have a lot of important news to get to today. But, like, there's a phenomenon now where kids are coming up to me with their phones and they're like, hey, I got my mom. I got my mom here on FaceTime. Can you. Can you talk to my mom or my dad? I. You know what we got? We got multi generational appeal here. So we were happy to do it. To all the moms last night who got a what's up from us, Byron Donald's was very, very strong. They're coming after Byron Donalds for some old clip about H1Bs. Byron Donald's like, straight up is like net zero immigration, no H1Bs. Destroy that program and we can do a lot of work on that on a state level. I'm more confident than ever in this man's ability to lead our great state of Florida. Ladies and gentlemen, the primary isn't until months from now. I think it's in August of next. August of 2026. So what's up? But now is the time. Now's the time to like, get the energy moving. Expect more tours from us. I would love to see you out on the road. We're going to be going to Clemson next week, actually, and we're going to be doing a lot more on the road. We want to bring this show on the road. We have a lot of partners who we're working with and developing some exciting new projects to go on the road. I don't want to get ahead of myself here, but my dream project, I'll just quit straight up. Say it. My dream project is I want to go around and do a bunch of fireside chats with vp. That's what I want. I was able to lock in and chill with J.D. vance before his. I flew down with J.D. vance to the Ole Miss event and not a flex. It not. It's not because I'm so powerful or important. I, like asked to get an opportunity to just speak on behalf of affordability, homeownership, crisis, young people. And that is where my heart is. And I can't wait to talk about Thomas Crook. So let me just get this out of the way. It is an. I've said it for years on this program and I say it to you. It is an immorality. It is indefensible for a generation to close the door on the next generation, to pull the ladder up. It is immoral. You are not a Christian country if you do that. You are not a moral or good people if you do that. I think that's been done, frankly, and has happened right now. And I have all the available data to prove that. And I don't want to continue that trend. It's awful. The generations. America is a great country because generations give of themselves and sacrifice for those who come after them, for their children. And I do this show and we build all of this. All of this is just for my kids, all of it, so that my kids can have a functional country. Your kids? Do you have grandkids? Do you have kids? Do you want kids so that you can have a functional country to leave to them? And that can be our legacy, is to reverse that trend of selfishness and bitterness and gimme, gimme, gimme and taking and actually giving. And so the best way to do that is to sit with Gen Z, Gen Alpha and the younger generations. I'm a millennial. And to sit with these generations and to listen to their concerns and then to take those concerns into the halls of power. And so that's what we're doing. Obviously, the biggest concern, of course, is H1B visas, mass deportations, foreigners taking our jobs, foreigners taking our homes, private equity buying our homes, the inability of our political leadership to do anything about it. It needs to be snapped in half. And we need to return the American dream to young people. And that comes in the form of home ownership, to start families, raise children, have that American dream. That's what makes our country different, is we can actually do those things. You can just do things. So ladies and gentlemen that expect us to be at a tour stop near you, we're putting this all together and we're excited about it. We're here to save the country for our children. That is the purpose of this show. Let's freaking get started. Speaking of you can just do things, here's Tucker Carlson's Report from this morning. Now, he teased this out last night and I want to be fair to the FBI, Alex, we have that FBI tweet out here. It's interesting. The FBI started a rapid response account just in order to respond to this. Yikes. So they must be very, very concerned about what Tucker Carlson has to say. And Tucker released this at 8am as promised last night. And it is an absolute and total complete bombshell. It's bombshell for us because we've been covering this from the get and we have gone through excruciatingly every single detail that is available to us. So let me just give you a really quick like, build up to where we were in order for Tucker Carlson to do this report. Because what Tucker gets access to is all of Matthew Thomas Crooks's comments and some of the metadata from his Google Drive. So all of his comments on various social media platforms that really give you an insight into who, who Thomas Crooks was and something very dark that happened to him. And then what Tucker does is he sort of like fillets, federal investigators, the FBI for covering so much of this up. Because what the FBI is doing is now sitting on a mountain of data from other accounts that were encrypted or deleted, like Thomas Crooks's Snapchat, for instance. Like there's nothing there, nothing available. There's was a absolute wipe clean operation here that is extremely strange on a digital perspective and a physical perspective. Let's not get ahead of ourselves. Let's, let's start from where we were before this report dropped to build up to Tucker's new revelations and allegations and questions. So where we were, where we were up to this point and do we have some of my, some of our documentary footage in there? Maybe you can just, maybe just, just play that, just do that as a play. Decide where we were up to this point. And in some part thanks to you, you, you, the chat, we love you. We thank you for giving us the power and the ability to do investigations like this one. Within a week of President Trump getting a bullet through his head and the death of Cory Comprentor and the shooting of other members of the MAGA movement, we were able to get on a rooftop in Butler and investigate ourselves. We brought our cameras to Butler and we saw something absolutely and totally chilling. We saw nothing. Do you understand? We were there within a week of this happening and we saw, I stood, you could still see the blood splatter all over the rooftop of Thomas Crooks's brains. We went there, of course, with Navy Seals and military veterans who've been on battlefields. Corey Mills and Eli Crane, two members of Congress. And we did a full scale investigation. Everything was gone. Now I know murder scenes. Why do I know them? Because I lived in Washington D.C. the murder capital of America, at the height of the worst murder spree in D.C. history. And I, I literally witnessed murders. I heard them. They are on my ring camera on my block. And I saw the police response to them, what police would do. And these murders, which were just like gang bangers, right? Druggies, junkies, gang bangers shooting each other. What police would do is they would lock down the blocks for days, sometimes days. These are, this is for your average junkie, your average druggie, like whatever. All human life is precious. That is something that's so important for Christians. We are all created in the image of God. I'm not saying that someone's life is worth more. What I am saying is from a law enforcement perspective, clearly the shooting of a president in the head merits an absolute and total lockdown of the would be murder scene and murder scene of Corey Compra. Everything preserved, all available data trapped encased in glass. When I went there a week, Donald Trump, a week after he got hit in the head with a bullet, nothing, the entire place had been, had been scrubbed and scraped clean. That was so strange to witness. And we, we detailed in our documentary, which stands up and I'm so proud of everything that was available at the time and showed the, the extreme peculiarities of what leads up to President Trump getting shot. And here's something that is, was bewildering to us and, and to the snipers that were there working with us because we went there with trained snipers, is that the security protocol for this event was maliciously eroded. To ensure that if something bad were to happen, that it did and it could, we focused on the watchtower up here. You can see here a water tower that has overwatch. Everybody knows this. It's been, it's been, this has been a principle of war fighting. And Medicare's annual enrollment period is here. And this is a very big deal. Every year, millions of seniors 64 and older face the same challenge. Choosing the right Medicare plan. If it can be overwhelming for you, it can be overwhelming for anyone. It's just bonkers out there. People are trying to take advantage of you, push you around, push plans that don't or won't benefit you already on Medicare and enrolling soon. Talk to somebody who's actually on your side, someone to help you with what Plan works best for you in 2026. Remember, plans change you and you don't want to lose coverage. You deserve trustworthy advice. That's what I'm telling you about Chapter. They'll help you with every single plan. Picking the right one, make sure that it truly fits your needs. On average, Chapter can help save people about $1,000 a year. I get it. This stuff isn't fun to deal with. But CHAPTER can make it easy and they can help you review your Medicare options. Sometimes in under 20 minutes. Your plan is still the best for you in 2026, great. If not, Chapter will help you switch. Ladies and gentlemen, speak to a trusted chapter advisor today by dialing £250 and say the word savings to take control of your healthcare. That's £250 and the keyword savings. To speak to someone at chapter today of establishing dominance in a secured area, whether on a battlefield or in a security protocol that you need a place to watch what is happening, to see what all available threats. Not only was there nobody up on the water tower here in order to like what you could have easily seen Thomas Crook, you could have yeeted Thomas Crooks minutes before he even had eyesight of Donald Trump. Not only was nobody available. This is our drone footage by the way. Not only was nobody up there, but there was no drone coverage at all. The Secret Service had no interest in watching the skies, in watching potential threats to Donald Trump. Thomas Crooks was lumbering into security forces that day. Thomas Crooks tried to enter the rally with a rangefinder. Thomas Crooks flew his own drone over the rally right as the anti drone protocol system went down. Do you know this? That Thomas Crooks were doing his own drone reconnaissance to try and kill Donald Trump. And the way he was able to do it, not even the most incompetent of morons in the federal government know that you have to have anti drone technology right when the President's about to speak or the, the, the, the assumed president. Remember at this time, like at this time like Donald Trump was still. Was doing great. I mean it's, it's not like Donald Trump was a laggard at all. People assumed that President Trump was going to win at this time, but nonetheless he is the, he is the candidate for one of two major parties and what they ended up doing was shutting the system off as to as Thomas Crooks flew his drone. Then Thomas Crooks gangly, lumbering, goofbally als. Can you find that funny photo of him just like wobbling around outside of the Trump rally. I mean, it's just a good example of Thomas Crooks. There's a famous photo of like somebody was just, just captured him. And he's just like. He's just like lunking around, slamming into security forces. So got turned away for a rangefinder. He got into like an altercation with a local cop. He got. Put a mark on him by the police. They were trailing him and his strange black backpack. Then he climbs up on top of the radiator. We actually went and saw it. You could see his footprints. I looked at the man's footprints on the air conditioning unit. Thomas Crooks lumbers up onto the rooftop. There we go. Perfect. Thank you. Here he is. There's Thomas Crooks. There you go. Like really trying, like Thomas Cross really trying to like really, really secretive. There might as well be in a ghillie suit, like a real, real. A real. To fly under the radar. This is of course, Thomas Crook getting turned away from security after they spotted him with a range finder, a drone trying to get into the rally. He'd been marked by local law enforcement. And still. And still was able to climb up. Here's a photo of it right before was able to climb up onto the rooftop. And then amazingly, when he was on the rooftop, there was a sniper position that would have easily been able to take out Thomas Crooks. Both those snipers got recalled. Why the hell did that happen? The official story is that they got locked out of the building. Well, who controlled the keycards to the building? How the hell did the local sniper team not have overwatch? Even if they weren't up in the water tower, why didn't they have. Why didn't they see Tom? They, they. They were sitting there, right in a window. I know we have the footage event buried somewhere. We were. They were sitting there right in this, the Eli Crane footage. They were sitting there, right in a window there where they could have seen. They could have seen Thomas Crooks taking him out. You know, people were on the ground. People were on the ground looking up at Thomas Crooks, filming him, saying, there's a sniper on the roof. That's how obvious this all was. This is what an obvious op. It all was. So many concurrent miracles had to occur for Thomas Crooks to be able to get those shots off. A hundred miracles had to occur in sequence for Thomas Crooks to be able to actually fire his weapon and not get killed on his way or arrested, which is presumably what, what should have happened. This is such, such a damning video. This is the Video of where the sniper's nest was on the rooftop that would have clearly shown. There it is right there. There we go. This is the video where the local police had a sniper position that could have yeeted Thomas Crooks. Get me the video from the ground. I want the video from the ground. This is my Zapruder film, guys. I want the video from the ground from the people filming Thomas Crooks. You can see him because I've been up on this roof. You can see him walking over this kind of this. This hallway section here, this sort of middle div. Right before the roof line, that easement. You could see him, like, falling and like, and, and, and again, like, he's not a particularly athletic person. It's kind of like, like lumbering through it. People were filming it from the ground. Do you have that climb when you have it, throw it up? You could see it, like, right here. There was a sniper. This is the sniper position. Both these local cops would have been able to absolutely end Thomas Crooks. Plenty of time to eliminate the threat. Listen to this. Listen, listen. Someone's on top of the roof. Look this. Trump's talking. They'll never show you this. Yeah, someone's on top of the roof. Look, here he is right there.
Tim Burchett
Right there.
Benny Johnson
You see him? He's laying down. You see him?
Tim Burchett
Yeah, he's laying down.
Benny Johnson
And Scott, I'm here with you fighting Mikel to get a senate.
What's happening?
Hundreds of people were there filming Thomas Crooks. Look at him. Look at that. Look at that right there. Look at him. Look at this. What I'm saying is that, like, What I'm saying is that unlike, man, I hate to do this. I hate to do this because it's still so fresh, dude. Unlike Charlie, where we actually. And there's so many questions about this, but we actually don't have any video of the. Of the shooter, like, at all. We have a. We have a. A cr. We have shockingly and chillingly little footage of the shooter and their activities that day. And I pray that all of it comes out in. In trial. And it is beyond a shadow of a doubt, and it is demonstrable. I pray for that. But, like, we. We don't have footage like this at all with President Trump. There's just. There's no question what happened when it comes to how Thomas Crooks got where he got. He was allowed to do this. I'll say it. Thomas Crooks was a Runway was created by 100 concurrent miracles for Thomas Crooks to fall ass backwards onto that rooftop to get these shots off. And here he is, ladies and gentlemen. Look at the number of people. Look at the number of people, dozens, hundreds maybe that just saw the shooter, that we're filming the shoot. Look at this lady, this lady in the Harley Davidson shirt. Look at that. Look at how obvious it is. There's another, there's. There's other footage. Alx.
Tucker Carlson
Thank you.
Benny Johnson
Thank you, man. Dude, sometimes it's just the Alx AI. The Klein AI. Klein Eye night. Look at this. This lady is filming from her Nokia flip phone, 1080p. This is like the MO. This is not high quality, high def. She doesn't have a telephoto lens. This is amateur footage from some, you know, from someone with their, I don't know, old, old iPhone, no camera update. And you're. They're able to see Thomas Crooks. I'm sorry that I'm belaboring the point. I'm gonna get to the Tucker stuff. I'm sorry. I apologize. I just want to build up the case. And the case that Tucker presents is so critical. You have to understand what a catastrophic failure of security this all was. And when you learn what we just learned about Thomas Crooks in this Tucker documentary, you will. You will want to claw your eyes out. You'll be in red, your blood will boil because you'll say this was all an inside job. And that's just the only conclusion that there is left. There's no other conclusion left. I want to just bring up one final important thing, just one final thing that not only is this an unguarded rooftop, but it wasn't. Can you show the sniper footage one more time? Not only is this an unguarded rooftop, and thank you. That was also great. This also totally worthwhile video. But like, can you show the sniper footage, the sniper nest? It was a guarded rooftop. And the people that were there guarding the local snipers that were there guarding it had no communication with the Secret service, had no comms on the ground, and had been locked out of their sniper nest. They'd been locked out. This is where they had a full sniper kit set up. In fact, this sniper took this photo of Thomas Crooks looking at his phone. And we've asked everyone we could possibly ask on planet Earth, what was he doing? Who was he speaking with? What was Thomas Crooks doing in this moment? Who was giving him orders? Who was telling Thomas Crooks where all of the security vulnerabilities were that day? Who was designing Thomas Crooks movements? Who was controlling him? Something happened that Day where Thomas Crooks, in spite of himself being a lumbering dumbass, slamming into security, slamming into the Secret Service, making himself as obvious of a target as possible. Something happened that day where Thomas Crooks was able to penetrate and perfectly get to this location without being blown to smithereens by the snipers that protect President Trump or the local snipers and teams that were there to guard this rooftop. One final, one final thing before we move on, if you will, please go to the fence line. Go to maybe some of the, some of the, maybe that footage of me there from the fence line because I, because I went there. Right, okay. So, so here, so here I am talking about the rooftop and I want to show you guys something where I was. This is the fence line here. You'll notice the red barn kind of. It's iconic because it's in all the, Is it all the footage, obviously, of this day. There was no security here, this fence line. And let's, let's go ahead and show you where Trump was. Okay? So obviously, you see, you, you recognize this, right? Everyone recognizes those two red barns burned in the back of our brains. Look at that, look at that, look at this. That's how close you could get to Trump with no security. I know, I know. Stop screaming. But it still makes my blood boil. This is how close there was zero security screening up to this fence line. Let me prove it to you. Here is some of the footage from the people and either the, the Fox footage or the, the, the, you know, amateur footage. Here's some of the footage of people there with their coolers and their lawn chairs. They're there, see Trump and they just rolled in YETI full of Coors Light. Freaking Sounds like an awesome afternoon. And I don't blame them for it. It's a great afternoon. And you don't have to stand in any security line. They don't have to be touched by Secret Service. They could just park their car in the ditch and they could just roll up to that fence line with no security, with nobody checking what they were bringing. They could have been bringing IEDs, they could have been bringing a rocket propelled grenade. They could have been bringing a sniper rifle. They could have been wheeling C4. They could have brought a bag of grenades. They could have brought deadly weapons that I'm sure I don't even know about that are available right now that are classified, that are the most dangerous weapons on earth. They could have brought it right up to that fence. Like, let's go ahead and right there, this is the perfect Freeze frame right there. There's the famous American flag. There's President Trump. Obviously, President Trump is right under that American flag. Look at all the people standing along the fence line. None of them were vetted. None of those people were vetted. Not a single one of them touched a security perimeter or protocol. All of those people were sitting there with an eyeline of President Trump that day without any screening from the Secret Service. And you wonder, how did Thomas Crooks do it? Well, look, look, look. It could have been any of them. What if that day, any power on earth, any nation on earth, had decided to just put five well trained snipers right along that fence line and create a kill box for Donald Trump that he definitely wouldn't have escaped? What if they were like true, true military trained snipers? Look at that. Perfect. This is obscene. They had Trump in a kill box. That's why we named our documentary Killbox. Enough ranting. I'm just, I'm so angry about it. One final very peculiar thing that we learned was that Thomas Crooks trained at a gun range. That was a gun range that was regularly used by Department of Homeland Security and the FBI. It's called the Clarion Sportsman Club. And this is a club that has Homeland Security special investigation units that train at it. And those were the units that were protecting Trump that day. Trump had his Secret Service underfunded and understaffed and DHS was backfilling the agents that day. And they happen to come from the HSI Homeland Security team that also just so happens to train at the Clarion Sports Club at the exact same time that Thomas Crooks was learning how to shoot. There. That's interesting. It's very strange. You can actually see Thomas Crooks on the same line as dhs. Would you look at that? Thomas Crooks on the phone. One of the most chilling photos, I think, ever taken from a sniper that was eventually locked out of his sniper position so Thomas Crooks could get to the kill box who was speaking to Thomas Crooks? We finally have some evidence of who Thomas Crooks was online. Tucker Carlson, ladies and gentlemen, in his bombshell report today, details and proves beyond a shadow of doubt that he has Tucker, that he has the messages, the comments, the YouTube comments and user comments of Thomas Crooks. The Thomas Crooks had a extensive digital footprint and that while he started off as a very dangerous and seemingly manic Trump supporter, he flipped on Trump in the year 2020 after Covid, something terrible happened to Thomas Crooks. His brain broke, and then he began espousing violence against the right and the federal government. He did espouse violence against the left. He didn't make racist comments online. But something happened in the year 2020, a full four years before the shooting, where Thomas Crooks became a rabid radical and very violent leftists. Something extremely dark happened. Here we go. Tone switch.
Tucker Carlson
On various occasions, Crooks openly said things like, Mueller should be hanged along with the rest of the Democrats involved in that witch hunt. And I always believed being patriotic was lining up a bunch of socialist Jews like the ones who booed Trump and blasting their useless brains out with an AR. And yet, in early 2020, crooks seemed to change radically. On January 23rd of that year, he referred to, quote, Trump's stupidity. He began to mock the concept of the deep state. He suggested it was a code word used by Trump supporters for, quote, anyone who disagrees with the right wing. Suddenly, he sounded like an MSNBC commentator. In February of 2020, he called out Trump's supporters as, quote, too brainwashed to realize how dumb you are. I mean, literally, you guys sound like a cult at times. That same day, he called Trump and his supporters, quote, racist. It was an amazing transformation. That April, during the peak phase of the coronavirus lockdowns, Crooks wrote, it seems that you people don't understand that sometimes public safety comes before your personal rights. Are you not willing to quarantine one member of your family to save the rest? If so, you are not a patriot and you aren't protecting anything. Around this time, the new left wing version of Thomas Crooks became very critical of conservative media. He said at one point, quote, going to a Chinese New Year's party in America isn't putting you at risk for coronavirus because believe it or not, viruses don't spread through race like Tucker Carlson probably told you that May. As state officials across the country overhauled election systems to promote mail in voting, Crooks attacked Republican concerns about voter fraud as, quote, ignorant. Four months later, in August 2020, his tone had shifted even further to the left. He said, quote, I believe the outcome will be irrelevant. In response to the same video, Thomas Crooks issued what sounds a lot like a digital manifesto. In my opinion, the only way to fight the government is with terrorism style attacks. Sneak a bomb into an essential building and set it off before anyone sees you. Track down any important people or politicians, military leaders, etc. And try to assassinate them. Any sort of head to head fight is suicide. And even ambush or surprise attacks likely aren't going to end well.
Benny Johnson
Okay. Thomas Crooks broke hard left During COVID their main people who had their brains broken by Covid. What Tucker Carlson's reporting here proves is that Thomas Crooks was a violent person who had very dark thoughts about attacking members of the government, whether they are members of Congress, the president or federal law enforcement. That is the theme. Whether he was supporting Trump or whether he was turning on Trump, whether he was attacking Trump and he eventually led to him trying to murder Trump, hitting President Trump in the head with a bullet. That is a consistent and present theme. In just one of his social media accounts. Tucker uncovered over a dozen social media accounts. All of them have been scrubbed. But then there's something very concerning. They all go dark when a very mysterious account that seems to be of a foreign user tied to some very radical groups, very strange groups, violent groups, terrorist groups, contacts Crooks. What happens in these scenarios is they there are forces in this world, and I'm not gonna suggest who, who was behind this, but when you see someone like Thomas Crooks online, you groom him. You see the rage and the anger inside of this young American. You see them outwardly projecting this, a call and a cry for help. And if you are a dark enough and sinister enough force, then you take them under your wing and you begin to manipulate them, you begin to control them. You can channel that rage and that anger into a real world result. And that is what I believe Tucker is getting at here. And that is also what I believe the current FBI and the Biden FBI is covering up. Here we go.
Tucker Carlson
At that point, a new character emerged into the conversation. A user named Willie Tepes, who started pressuring Crooks to commit violence. For example, quote, if a gun and a badge is all that is needed, then authority obviously comes from the barrel of a gun. We have more guns than they do. There is no way we can avoid a war at this point. So you better just get used to the idea we have nothing to lose and everything to win. And the alternative? A global police state is unacceptable. Nothing in life is simple. But that is no argument against doing it. So who is this Willie Tepes? Unfortunately, we don't know. The FBI hasn't made any mention of him in public, although they certainly know he exists. Just days after the shooting, somebody screenshotted Tepes YouTube account page despite the fact he had very few followers. To the extent that he can be traced online. Now you can find his username being used on a foreign antifa website. Those sites link him to the Nordic Resistance Movement, which has been designated a terrorist group by the U.S. state Department. That's all we know. We do know however that Crooks online footprint abruptly ends after his encounter with this mysterious figure, Willie Tepes. Regardless, whoever Willie Tepes is or was and what his motives may have been, who he may have been working for, there is no doubt that Crooks was ripe for recruitment by someone.
Benny Johnson
Tucker goes on to say that the behavior of the FBI after the murder of Corey Comprentor and the shooting of President Trump is strange in the extreme. That they scrubbed all available evidence, never allowed for an independent toxicology report, cremated the body, instantly power washed the roof. They accessed Thomas Crooks's phone almost immediately, were able to get inside of it and were able to uncover a treasure trove of messages, documents, searches and potential co conspirators. All of this evidence is available at Quantico, including hopefully preserved biological evidence, spinal fluid, blood samples, brain tissue samples. All of these things you would assume would be preserved by the FBI. Have they been let's watch the shooting.
Tucker Carlson
The FBI sent Crooks phone to the Bureau's laboratory at Quantico, Virginia. Agents there were able to open it in less than 40 minutes using technology from an Israeli tech firm called Celebrate. According to the Post, FBI officials who served under President Joe Biden accessed Crooks phone computer.

You've heard me talk about blackout coffee for a long time now and there's a reason for that. It's not just the coffee. It's about what this company stands for. Hard work, grit, the American dream. A little over six years ago, blackout coffee started in a home garage roasting small batches with one mission. Make damn good coffee without compromising on values. Fast forward to today and they're roasting in house, packing every single bag themselves and shipping straight out of their 64,000 square foot facility run by a team of over 30 hard working Americans. This is why I drink blackout coffee. It just tastes like real coffee. I drink my coffee black and I love having the caffeine to fight the communists. And you know what this is? Premium small batch roasted coffee made right here in America. It's the best coffee out there and it's a company that supports what you are building. It stands for something. It stands for hard work, American values. And it actually tastes good. Ladies and gentlemen. Go to blackoutcoffee.com Benny use the code Benny for 20% off your first order. Support the American dream. Drink blackout. That's blackoutcoffee.com Benny stop settling.
Tucker Carlson
Start drinking real coffee and his encrypted messaging apps in Belgium, New Zealand and Germany. Yet none of the online activity the FBI has discovered was referred to in any way in the final congressional report that was released in December of 2024.
Benny Johnson
By the way, why do we still know nothing about that guy in Butler?
Tucker Carlson
What's going on? That was a good question. A question that most people thought would be answered by the new administration. Within weeks of retaking office, Donald Trump told the New York Post's Miranda Devine that he had, quote, ordered the Secret Service on Friday to provide him every bit of information about his two would be assassins.
Benny Johnson
You've had two assassination attempts. One obviously where you got hit by that bullet in Butler. There's a lot of frustration that we still don't know about that shooter in Butler and we don't know about his communications. We get stonewalled all the time asking questions about it. Is there frustration on your part? Will we get transparency? Will we know the bottom line story? It's very interesting because we have great people. I think Pam is incredible. I think Cash is incredible. And they're doing a great job. They're being recognized as doing a great job. But you're the president. Can you define it?
Tim Burchett
Can you.
Benny Johnson
No, no, I know, I know, I know. I'm relying on my people to tell me what it is.
Tucker Carlson
But his people insist there's nothing there and they don't seem interested in finding out more.
Benny Johnson
But there is something there. There has to be. Because even in this very short expose, it's about 30 minutes long. And the major new information brought to bear were some new videos of Thomas Crooks, pretty benign videos of Thomas Crooks, some videos of him dry firing his firearm, and some just other weird stuff. But really, it's the YouTube comments, the comments of Thomas Crooks that paint the picture of a very radicalized and violent and dangerous young man who made constant and consistent threats against the federal government, sometimes in favor of Donald Trump, against Trump's enemies, but then shifting rapidly against President Trump and his supporters. And then the FBI lies. That's what's so remarkable about all of this and why Cash and Dan must act on revealing who Thomas Crooks truly was. Because the FBI went before Congress and the former assistant director of the FBI said that Thomas Matthew Crooks was a right wing radical. Christopher Wray went before Congress and questioned whether Donald Trump was even shot at all. Maybe it might have been a piece of glass, says Christopher Wray. The FBI literally hosed down the building the day after the shooting. This is not normal for the FBI. The FBI doesn't do like, doesn't do crime scene cleanup. What the Hell is going on here? Why have we never seen any blood samples? Why have we never seen any tissue samples? Why have we never seen any toxicology reports? Why don't we know anything about Matthew Thomas Crooks? What drugs he was on? Who was controlling him? What was inside of those devices? Who was he talking to before he shot Trump? How did he know every single security vulnerability on the building? So obtuse was his movements that day that hundreds of Trump supporters filmed him from their cell phones in their lawn chairs, Tucker saying, listen, this is clearly an inside job by the federal government. Here we go.
Tucker Carlson
The reality is that the FBI as of today is not only stonewalling, but is actively preventing an honest look at what happened in Butler. Within days of the shooting, FBI agents collected all the relevant surveillance footage. That includes footage from local businesses, the state police, and critically, the gun range where Thomas Cooks trained. Did he train alone? We don't know. Because to this day, the FBI refuses to release the footage. They confirmed it exists. They confirmed the existence of one gaming account and then publicly said a few days later the account wasn't real. Was that incompetence or are they lying? Within a day of the shooting, the social media companies that hosted Crooks comments took his accounts off. In some cases, the records of those comments in the Internet Archive were also erased. Did the FBI order that too? What we do know is that on the day of the attacks, Thomas Crooks got extremely lucky. Miraculously lucky. After he arrived at the Butler County Fairgrounds on the morning of the shooting, Thomas Crooks conducted surveillance by flying his drone over the rally site. He flew that drone from 11 minutes. It just so happened the Secret Service's anti drone system were down at exactly the same moment. What are the odds?
Benny Johnson
That's something I can't square. You really want to know who's protected by our federal government? Who are the people that are really running things? You need to ask the question, who and what can't I criticize? In order to find that out, you need to go into the Wayback Archive. That's something that we use. It's very niche, it's boutique. It's something that we use all the time on this program. The reason why is that the Internet is forever. And there is an archive. There are multiple archive sites. But the Wayback Archive is a very popular site that logs all available user data. Like, let's say you delete a tweet. Well, you can still go find it if you have the right metadata. It doesn't matter. It's the history The Internet is forever, right? According to the Wayback Archive, this is what we use right here. You can see it on your screen. It's available for everyone to use. It's just a way of holding people accountable. We use it all the time. Except for in this case because we went and checked. Tucker's at 100% correct. Someone has been manipulating the Wayback Archive. Someone ordered all of Thomas Crooks available metadata, comments and activity online wiped. Well, who's in charge of all of this? Was very shady group of NGOs and nonprofits. But of course it all stems from directly through USAID and federal funding. These are leverage points. Who has the power to erase the Internet? And that's what happened here with Thomas Crooks. Why? Who ordered that? These are a series of questions that have to be answered. And for the good of the country, they must be answered. Not now. For the life of me, I don't know why the FBI DOJ would be sitting on all available evidence. Thomas Crooks is dead. There is no trial. He's not sitting there with the presumption of innocence awaiting what a jury will find. He's dead. His body was rushed and cremated faster than a household goldfish that was found floating belly up in the tank. Apparently Thomas Crooks, his home, where his therapist parents lived who didn't know about their son dry firing and ordering explosive materials, firearms training at a gun range, making all these violent comments. They didn't see anything. They're both professional therapists. They knew nothing. That's what we are to believe. He was getting explosives, explosive materials delivered to his home. That's what they found when they searched his room. These boxes of explosives. His parents didn't like. Get concerned about that. His parents immediately hired a high priced lawyer. Like a very high priced defense attorney. And then when his father was asked a question about it, his dad said I need to go piss. This is, this is all true. Everything I'm telling you. Thomas Crook house had no silverware in it. It was like a medical laboratory. It had been scrubbed clean. This is according to federal investigators. What's going on? What's happening here? Stop lying to us. And these are the final questions. We have the great congressman Tim Burchett on deck. And he's the perfect booking to talk about all of this. But I want to leave you with Tucker's rapid fire questions that he has. And I'm like a huge credit to Tucker for actually going forward with this report and for send, for showing us for the first time some new information on Thomas Crooks. And who he was and how he must have been on a federal registry. He must have been based on all of his searches, his search history, his comment history, his violent history. Something dark happened here. And then him going silent for four years. Something very bad happened here and it's being covered up. Here's Tucker's final series of questions on what occurred.
Tucker Carlson
The leadership of the FBI and the DOJ had any desire whatsoever to prove to the public that there is in fact nothing there. They could do that. But first they would have to answer these questions. Was Thomas Crooks known to federal law enforcement before the shooting? Was he known to local law enforcement before the shooting? And if not, why not? Who is Willie Tepes and was he known to federal law enforcement enforcement? Is Willie Tepes linked to any violent organizations? Is he linked to any governments? And if so, then around the time of the shooting did the FBI have assets inside those organizations? If Crooks wasn't known to anyone in authority before the shooting, how was he able to post hundreds of violent extremist comments under his real name between 2019 and 2020 without being detected by law enforcement or intel agencies at a time we know they were monitoring social media. Were those comments, including specific assassination threats against specific public officials, ever reported to YouTube? Other users complained about them. Did YouTube know? Why is the FBI telling us that they'll release this information, quote, after the trial, when there is no trial? Why did an FBI agent from the Technical Hazards Response Unit hose down the crime scene in the day after the attack? That seems very strange. What happened on the roof of the American Glass Research building for the 10 seconds after crooks last shot until he was killed by the Secret Service? Does the FBI have surveillance footage of Thomas Crooks shooting that day? Was the FBI present at the medical examiner's autopsy? Are there still blood samples? Can they be examined by outside authorities? When contact When Congress demanded the autopsy, did the FBI restrict what the examiner could tell the Congress? When the FBI cleared the corner to release Crooks body for cremation, did they keep tissue samples, brain tissue samples, spinal cord samples or spinal fluid samples? Law enforcement sources told us that in a typical investigation in a crime of this nature, it would be normal to preserve all of that, those samples. If the FBI didn't, why not? And who made that decision to destroy what could be critical evidence in an attempted murder case? FBI agents went to the same gun range that Thomas Crooks was using. Who were those agents and did any of them at any time have any contact with Thomas Crooks? Who did he Train with Exactly. And why can't we know? Was Thomas Crooks taking drugs? That might have turned up on the toxicology report but the that weren't listed somehow. On what date specifically did FBI agents stop investigating Thomas Crooks online presence? Why did the former Deputy Director of the FBI Paul Abate suggest to Congress that Crooks was a right winger when he clearly wasn't? Was the FBI aware of Crooks public comments before the shooting, many of which are openly violent that included specific assassination attempts involving public officials. Who, who was Thomas Crooks in communication with in the days before the attack? What does his burner phone show? And in fact why did he have a burner phone and encrypted foreign email accounts? Who are the government officials trying to link Iran to the shooting? Why did the FBI suggest that he had no digital footprint in the first place when the FBI had a great deal of evidence, Hundreds and hundreds of comments from his digital activity. And what's on the other dozen accounts that the FBI clearly had access to? How long had Thomas Crooks been planning to commit an assassination? If there's nothing there, if they tell you this is just a lone nut who gave no indication he might do this, then what is stopping the FBI from at least giving the facts to Congress?
Benny Johnson
Again ladies and gentlemen, Tucker Carlson's full investigation is 30 minutes long. We've gone into our own version of explaining what we saw when we were in Butler and sort of tying in our investigations with Tucker's and we have the exact same questions. Ladies and gentlemen, it's been a wild morning. Blackout coffee has been there for us and we'll be there through our next guest which is Tim Burchett, the great congressman from Tennessee. Ladies and gentlemen, it's been again we got in last night, I got to bed at about 2am Wake up this morning, this report hits me directly in the face and we are rip roaring thanks to our blackout coffee keeping us caffeinated and strong. Blackout coffee is for hard working Americans with American values that like coffee that tastes like coffee. Go to drink blackout coffee.com benny this blackout coffee.com benny Use code BENNY for 20% off your first order. Support the American dream and drink blackout on telling you guys, hard work, grit and the American dream is built on caffeine and some would say nicotine but I'm not into that so I'll take the caffeine myself. Ladies and gentlemen. Now some caffeine for our show. A man who's always spitting and I'm sure has plenty to say on all of this the great Congressman Tim Burchett from Tennessee. Congressman, thank you for your patience this morning as we sort of worked through and digested all that Tucker Carlson laid out before us. It seems like the federal government is lying to those who have oversight as to who Thomas Crooks actually was, who was his potential handler and what his motivations might be. The floor is yours. What's your takeaway here?
Tim Burchett
Well, you had an inept person at the helm of that agency at the time under Biden. If I remember correctly, she came from some soft drink company. If I. If I'm remembering correctly, I think I was quoted as saying that she was a DEI horror story. And a lot of people made fun of me when I said that, but that's. That government turns out to be the truth. But here's what I think real quick.
Benny Johnson
Kimberly Cheadle, right? Yes.
Tim Burchett
Yeah. Emily Cheadle. That's who her name was. That's right. You got a great memory. But I think that it happened. And why it happened was. Was pretty easy to figure out. The CIA's had a program in place that. That they said they didn't have, and then they were sued and came out and said, oh, in fact, we did have that program, but we no longer use it, which to me is bogus. But you didn't believe them before. Why the hell would I believe them now? And what that did was program people brainwashed type thing, you know. You seen the move.
Benny Johnson
Guys? Producers. Producers. Grab. Grab Burchett. Tell him for some reason the audio's off. We gotta get that. Sorry. He was cooking there. Stop it. I'm just gonna wait. We're just gonna be. We're just gonna wait for the great Tim Burchett producers. Grab them. Test that audio. Every single time that somebody is talking about something having to do with CIA or some type of sinister plot for the government, the entire. The feed goes down like that. So I don't know why we lost him. Burch's audio. But boys, get them locked in and we'll jump right back into the. What I believe was going to be an MK Ultra conversation. Ladies and gentlemen, as we await Tim Burchett to jump back into the program. Obviously we are talking about the taking of life on this dark. On this dark subject matter. I want to talk about the giving of life. Preborn gives life to young babies, American babies who may well have been aborted. But thanks to preborn, there is an incredible operation that is growing and growing quickly in this country to save babies from the trauma and the child sacrifice practice that is actually abortion this time. Just call it what it is. Preborn heals. When a woman walks into one of preborn's network clinics, she's met with open arms. She can see her baby through an ultrasound. This increases exponentially a woman's desire to keep her child if she chooses life. Preborn continues walking with her all the way up to two years. The child's life providing maternity clothes, diapers, counseling and so much more. Preborn cares for the whole woman and the child. It's a great investment. Ladies and gentlemen. Dial pound250 and say the keyword baby. That's pound250. Say the keyword baby and visit preborn.combenny. that's preborn.combenny. all gifts are tax deductible with preborn and it is a five star rated charity, ladies and gentlemen. Perfect gift in time for the holidays. Okay, my producers are telling me that we need a second in order to get Burchett back up and running. I it seem it looks like his connection dropped again. This always happens. This always happens when we're doing. We're doing shows like this. But we are. They are. They're working on the problem right now. Remarkable. Truly, really remarkable. What did we. What do we have in our show if we don't have consistency, authenticity and never, ever, ever lying to you, we may not know all the answers. We don't know many answers at all. But we'll never lie to you. And we will always be in search of the truth. In a interview with Kristi Noemi from a matter of months ago, I believe this was in February. We asked about Thomas Crooks. We didn't give up on this dog with bone. And we're just as concerned about it today. You deserve the answers. Given all the new information. Let's go ahead and re listen to Kristi Noem's answer on Thomas Crooks as again we await Tim Burchett and our producers getting him set up. Let's go. Your service has. Has bad advertisements, right? Like the assassination attempt in Butler.
Yes.
And many people, especially in our audience, are frustrated at the lack of understanding of what the motivation was. Who was Matthew Thomas Crooks talking to on the phone? What was happening behind the scenes? Some investigators are out saying he might not have acted alone again. What people want, I think is just information because it seems so strange. This guy almost started a civil war, Changed the course of human history with eight shots on the president.
Americans deserve the truth. They really do. Yeah. And that is all information that the president will be fully briefed on and will know and that the American public will know. What I will say also is that what we have seen continuously and what I see as a fundamental flaw is a breakdown in communication. And it's part of my job at DHS is to help streamline that. If you look at that situation in Butler, the communication between Secret Service, the local law enforcement, the state law enforcement, all the agencies that were there, it was a breakdown in how they communicate and how they do it in a situation like that. But we see the same thing happening in a crisis that could be in response to a natural disaster. You know, how the federal responders communicate with the state responders, with the local emergency management operators. A lot of times when we see failures in FEMA or in failures in other departments of the agencies, it's because they weren't communicating. And for me, my job, what I believe needs to happen so many times, is a pre education and a structure for how we communicate and how we do things before they happen. Shawn knows that part of that training that needs to happen is educating folks on how we're going to work with local law enforcement before that event ever comes and spending time to create those communication structures. Because if you can go back through the investigations that the House and the Senate have done into Butler, a lot of it was they weren't talking to each other, they weren't cooperating together. Therefore their assets weren't fully utilized. And how did that happen? How did.
This episode is brought to you by Netflix from the creator of Homeland. Claire Danes and Matthew Rhys star in the new Netflix series the Beast and me as ruthless rivals whose shared darkness will set them on a collision course with fatal consequences. The Beast in Me is a riveting psychological cat and mouse story about guilt, justice and doubt. You will not want to miss this. The Beast in Me is now playing only on Netflix.
Shots get off. And is he acting alone? We still don't have the answers because we weren't talking to each other.
So you don't know if he was acting alone.
Well, it's not my purview to say to you today what all of that, but I will say that it all. All this information that the American public will have at the appropriate.
So there is an investigation going on. We will learn a lot more.
And members of Congress are still working on that as well too. So it's not just an investigation, you know, with law enforcement entities in the country, but also Congress is still very much on top of.
So he wasn't acting alone. I mean, I'm not going to apologize for just being bloody consistent on all of this. Because ever since this all happened, we have stood in awe of the hundreds, if not thousands of aligned miracles that needed to happen for Thomas Crooks to be able to shoot President Trump in the head that day, whether through malevolence or incompetence. And I'm leaning towards malevolence. The federal agencies that are given billions of dollars to protect the president decided to open up a lane and allow for Thomas Crooks to shoot Trump in the head. They allowed it. They let it happen. They invited it to happen. By the design of the event, by the collapse of the security protocols, and more importantly, now that what we've learned, the total and complete ignoring of Thomas Crooks writing in his own name threats against President Trump. Ladies and gentlemen, we have been covering for a while and my team is telling me that Tim Burchett believes is. Is set. Now, since we have.
Tim Burchett
Let's.
Benny Johnson
Let's have those cops. Let's have those cops up and loaded, please. You have that? All right, we'll kit this clip and we'll go right back to Burchett. Okay, here's. You know, we've just played Christy Gnome saying we had a communications collapse. Did we have a communication collapse or did. Did you have a sabotaged communication where the local police officers who are here on your screen received nothing from the Secret Service and the Secret Service didn't brief them on anything. And the Secret Service skipped all their briefings.
Tim Burchett
Here we go.
Benny Johnson
We were supposed to get a face to face briefing with the Secret Service snipers whenever they arrived, and that never happened. So I think that that was probably a pivotal point where I started thinking things were wrong because that never happened. And we had no communication with the Secret Service.
Tucker Carlson
You had no communication with the Secret.
Benny Johnson
Service at all on that Saturday? Not until after the shooting.
Tucker Carlson
And by then it was too late.
Benny Johnson
How is this not the biggest story? I mean, this needs to be the biggest story on earth right now, and maybe we'll make it the biggest story on earth with Tim Burchett back in the saddle. Let's rock and roll. Hey, Congressman. How are you?
Tim Burchett
Good. I moved to. I moved out of my lead line room. So maybe we're getting. Maybe that was the problem. No. I don't know. It seems like every time you and I start talking about something hot, this happens.
Benny Johnson
Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.
Tim Burchett
And you're the only one it happens with. I mean, you got their number, but.
Benny Johnson
I guess that's something.
Tim Burchett
Yeah. Anyway, I don't believe in coincidence. MK Ultra.
Benny Johnson
That's right. Yep.
Tim Burchett
They got sued. They said it didn't exist, and then they got sued. And they said, oh, it exists, but we don't use it anymore. So I don't believe them. As far as I can throw the dome off the dadgum capital, Benny. Look, this is what I saw during COVID If I could just go back a little. I met with a constituent. They said, oh, you're going to cut my child's health care off? I said, what are you talking about? And I said, you're not going to allow them to get a sex change surgery. And I said, well, I don't want the taxpayers paying for it. I said, and you're probably wondering, where is this going? And I said, well, let me ask you, how was your child diagnosed as whatever it is, transgender? And they said, oh, they self diagnosed. And I said, really? How'd they do that? I said, over the Internet. They were contacted by a group. And I thought, oh, well. And that. That goes right back to what you were saying. You got a kid who's got access to guns or has some simple knowledge of a firearm. He was programmed. You're exactly right. They program this kid, and Kristi Noem and Cash and Bongino and the rest are reporting the facts as they know them. The facts have been buried or burned, or whoever knew is either sitting on a beach somewhere and enjoying a fruity drink or they're dead. I would suggest they're probably dead. And this is what happens. You claim it doesn't. They label me and you conspiracy theorists, but this is exactly what we see happen. And it happens in Washington. It's. It's happening now. It's too deep. It is. And that's why I said, I wish they could go in and just fire everybody and then just start back. But they all. But you can't do that because of security. You're going to fire some good people that are clearly have their thumb in the dike on terrorists or what have you. And that's where we're at. That's why Cash, Patel and Bongino are having such a hard time. I don't. Christy, no matter either way. I don't. I don't give a rip either way, but I think at their level, that's what's happened. And that's. That's. I don't care. You can call me a lunatic, but when the CIA says this thing, we don't have this thing, and then they're brought in, their asses are brought in a court of Law. And they say, well, we have it, but we don't use it anymore. Apparently, somebody's using it. They know to contact these people. If you look at the Muslim radicals and how they. They recruited them, you remember they had a. The American Taliban or whatever, that kid they caught. And nobody talks about that anymore. Nobody even remembers it. I think he was. His parents were Americans. They went to the Greek church or something. That kid was programmed. And, you know, and you're right. They watched the crime scene. I live in Knoxville, Tennessee, brother. If there's a murder out here, our sheriff's department's got that thing blocked off. They got a tarp over it, and. And. And they've got it, you know, cleared. Nobody can get up on it. Nobody can contaminate the crime scene. This is Knoxville Knox County Sheriff's Department in the city of Knoxville. Police, and I guarantee you, my Blount County Sheriff's Department. Sheriff.
Benny Johnson
Wrong.
Tim Burchett
All those people always close off the crime scene. This is casebook. And. And also one other thing. I sponsored some legislation dealing with cremation. So I know a little bit about the. You know, when they. They bring a body in, there are probably laws in that state that they violated because they cremated that kid, I think, pretty quick. If I'm not correct, if you might.
Benny Johnson
Oh, 11 days. Yes.
Tim Burchett
Okay. And if there was an investigation going on, there's probably something in the law that says you cannot dispose of the body. And I. I think. I think you're right. I think all of it, it was washed, it was planned, and we just got lucky. Very close and related to a Marine sniper. And I called him after that. I said, what do you think? He said, tim, I could have made that shot with iron sights without a scope with all that stuff. We just got damn lucky. God shined his favor upon us that day. I clearly. If you don't believe that. I mean, the Bible talks about God knows if a sparrow falls from the sky or how many hairs are on your head. That gum. I believe it. And we just. If Trump had not turned his head a quarter of an inch, it had been all over.
Benny Johnson
Yeah. What man intends for evil, God intends for good. And I believe that. And that's how we started the show. But it still doesn't really explain the activity of the federal government that day, which seems to. Shouldn't have to. Yeah, that's exactly. We shouldn't have to depend on the miracles of our Lord and Savior moving a bullet in time and space in. Or, you know, 1cm more. And Trump's Dead. And he's dead. On a live stream for the world to see in a message that I personally believe, Congressman, they wanted to send that message.
Tim Burchett
That was the message. That was the message and they were sending it clearly. And they always use a patsy. And that's what they had in this kid. And he was, they knew he had been, he'd be shot apparently. Right. You know, I mean, of course he's going to be shot. And you're right. Bringing coolers in, what the hell? They could have had a, I mean just, just a half ass nail bomb. You know, the mob uses those. You know, you could have taken out 20 people right in that circumference. You could have been on the front row with a, with a cooler or a satchel charger walked in a suicide bomber with something and they had a group of, it looked like a group of pygmies guarding the President. I mean, give me a freaking break. It was the perfect storm and they blew it. And then they almost blew it again. You know that, you know, on that golf course. It just doesn't make sense. You've got these people and they trigger them. It's just like when they run these campaigns with this dark money. They run 20 across the country for Congress and then they hit two or three good ones and that's, and that's their Manchurian candidates and they've got them and that's what they're doing with these kids. They're programming sure as the world.
Benny Johnson
Now that's going to make a ton of news, Congressman, so let's dive in. So you are alleging that Thomas Crooks was groomed by some type of dark intel program, MK Ultra or otherwise, in order to commit on that day the act of an assassination?
Tim Burchett
I, I think so. I've said that all along. I've, I've said that and I'm glad somebody with Tucker's credibility, you know, his, his ability to, and miss my dog snores over there, sorry for that. That with his credibility has brought it out because I, you know, I, I yell this stuff all the time and people just, oh, it's just burching. But look at the history. Look at where we're at in this country. Look at the deep state, the sewer as it is and it's disgusting. And this is what happens, dude, when 12% of the population goes to polls. They know we're so vulnerable and we have very, very few people in the lineup that could do the damage to them. Like Trump. Trump's right. They're not after they're not after him, they're after us. He's just standing in the way.
Benny Johnson
So these are really powerful allegations from a member of Congress. Clearly there would have to be some major answers to this that are available.
Tim Burchett
Never will be. There never will be. There never will be. Because the people in charge are great patriots, no question. I mean, I know Cash, sort of, but Bongino I consider a friend. But they, they, you can just see the frustration in their faces just because of the lack, I feel like the lack of support they get because, you know, once they get there, I mean, the files have been destroyed. You'll never find this stuff out. It's like Kennedy. I mean, we're just now finding out stuff about Kennedy through the right hearing. And guess what? Nobody gives a rip. Nobody gives a rip. That should have the hearing we had on Kennedy that represent Luna helped orchestrate. You know, she does her dadgum research, man. And we asked, and I asked some tough questions. I asked a physician and he said yes, definitely two bullet, two, two different, two different entry wounds and exit wounds didn't even make the news. And this is what will happen with this. This is on the. This is already over. You will never get the ANSWERS. And again, 12% of the population, this country sits on our lazy asses. And we're going to lose it. We are going to lose it. You know, Reagan talked about losing it in a generation. We could lose it in a few days. I remember my dad in A World War II Marine, when the elections were going bad. One night he said, buddy, let me say the prayer. And he. And I looked over at him, I said, wow, freaking United States Marine. Fought in the Pacific during the Second World War. The worst pale Lou Okinawa, worst combat of anybody saw horrible things. His heart was breaking. And he said this simple prayer. He said, lord, please don't let us lose our country. Amen. And I thought, you know, I, I registered that in my brain and it still brings tears to my eyes because that is where we're at. Because this country is lazy. We're sitting on our asses and we're going to let them take our country. And I'm not talking about armed insurrection by a bunch of conservative folks that they always say. I'm talking about getting to the dad gum polls, getting to church, standing up for what's right in this dadgum country. Quit allowing these gutless preachers to quit preaching the gospel. Hold them. Hold them accountable. Hold your friends accountable. When they run this country down and you're walking by. I don't have Time to deal with that. Get time to deal with it. You know, that's why I go on CNN and the people don't like it in our party. I go on all these other stations that a lot of people won't do it and I'll take the fight to them. Somebody screams at me on a street corner, dad, gum. I'm getting in their face. We've got to take our country back, Benny. Sorry I rant, sir. I get excited. You're the man.
Benny Johnson
I like your street videos. I love your street videos. I like the, the knocks on the guy's mom's basement, you know, and his Hot Pockets and his, his Hot Pockets and his.
Tim Burchett
I made him a national figure and he hates rules.
Benny Johnson
Yeah, okay, so you know people are going to say, buret, you're nuts. And how dare Benny like platform such a crazy person without understanding that the current HHS secretary believes that Sirhan Sirhan, who killed his father, was part of this program. He straight up says it, he believes that, that, that, that, that this was a, a massive conspiracy and that clearly this was somebody that was under mind control. RFK Jr. Will just straight up tell you that he's, he's HHS secretary. They forget that we, what we've learned about the Gretchen Whitmer fednapping where I believe it was something like 8 out of 12 of the kidnappers were federal agents or informants that were there to psychologically operate on the four other, you know, doofuses who are there not realizing that all their little meetings were designed by the federal, by the federal government to create, to like, plant the seed for a violent kidnapping. Those are the FBI. This is what the FBI was, was actively doing. And that there is a list as long as my arm, Congressman, of the FBI, encouraging and, or allowing political violence and instigating it in this country. And that just seems like the foremost evil. It seems like you don't clearly don't love your country if you're doing that. But more importantly, you're trying to manipulate the electorate in order to think that the governor of Michigan is going to be kidnapped or that there's an insurrection on January 6, or that here's a lone wolf that just decided to get angry at Donald Trump. Oh, and he's a right winger and he just got a couple pot shots off.
Tim Burchett
Can I, can I say one more thing? Can I say one more?
Benny Johnson
Of course.
Tim Burchett
I just jogged a memory. I had breakfast with a. I'll just say a former leader of, of our, one of our Alphabet agencies. This was years ago, I guess. And I remember him saying, look, and he was just talking about the Chinese. He said, look, they're at the PTA level. They're at, they're, they're infiltrating elections or kids at the level of student government. They put so many out there that they have, that, you know, one of them eventually hits and that's the access. And the access is there because of the greed of congressmen not having the guts of China because they, they control the Internet. They control a lot of this. I don't, I'm not saying they were part of this deal. I think it was deep within our own country, but I don't think we'll ever know. And for the record, I love Jesus, I love my family and I'm not suicidal and I don't. And I don't walk around cliffs and I don't stand near open, open cockpits of airplanes. So just for the record, I do ride skateboard occasionally and I ride motorcycles, but I do that unbounced.
Benny Johnson
Yeah, well, that probably will just end up in a. With a raspberry or scraped knee and not actually Tim Burchett getting suicided. So thank you for that disclaimer and we'll make sure.
Tim Burchett
Hey, Benny and I, I just want you to know how proud I am of you, man. You've taken up the mantle hardcore. I've seen you in a lot of God has put you in that place. I know you probably think it's because it was your good looks and superior intellect, but there's, as I like to say, there's 300,000 people out in the second congressional district that could do this job. But just for some reason, God let me do it. And so you have an incredible gift, but you also have an incredible responsibility.
Benny Johnson
I always appreciate these proud surrogate father pep talks from you, Congressman. It is actually the highlight of my day. Hopefully we can just book you every single Friday so I can get one because it always lifts my spirits. I also am well aware that I have the most punchable face on the Internet and a room temperature iq. But even I, functioning with those modest gifts given to me by our Lord and Savior can understand that what's happening here in what happened here in Butler doesn't square. And I just have to ask. I mean there's a. Your mentality is that we'll never see anything. But we got to see something and our people are in charge. What do you know? The FBI has his phone. The FBI has his phone. The FBI hasn't answered the question as to Whether they have spinal fluid, brain tissue, blood samples. Your colleague Clay Higgins, who's a very respected former law enforcement professional, he's said that he's been stonewalled and they, they lit the body on fire before he could ever get to it. You know, Congress could really make a scene here and could. True, could. Could ask and demand that all of this information be released. What do you think should happen next? Okay, ladies and gentlemen, once again, once again, we have a frozen. We have a. We have a frozen Tim Burchett. I don't know why this is happening today. It always happens in these conversations. Isn't it remarkable? At some point, you know, like, it's, it's like watching a man in a. Like it's like watching a man in a fedora and a trench coat, you know, smoking a cigarette. The end of a dark alley. And you see that guy on your way out of work, and you see him again at the end of your block when you come home, and then you see him again outside of your kids daycare, and then you see him again outside of your favorite coffee shop. And you like, you start seeing the same pattern. You start seeing this and you start getting, you start getting like a little. You start getting a little, like your skin starts to crawl and you're like, who is this? What is this? Somebody following me? Is something going on? I'm not saying they're trying to make me go insane, but every flipping time. Don't curse, Benny. Don't curse. Every flipping time that we start talking about MKUltra or a CIA program on this show, the stream, the guest crashes. Our stream doesn't crash. The guest crashes. Every time that we talk about China's involvement and these kind of like large scale ops, gas crashes. We should, we should make a super cut of these coincidences that happen when we start to talk about this stuff. Goodness. All right. I don't know, boys. I don't know. I don't know if we like, if we effort. If we effort. I mean, he's, he, you know, he'd be. This is the second crash out. So it's not a. It's not the end of the world. I mean, I think we got. I wanted to get what he wants next, what he wants next to happen. I mean, I guess the, the, you know, final thing that I would want. I mean, the major thing that I would want answered is why was Trump put in a kill box that day? Because again, for Thomas Crooks to be able to even get those shots off, so many failures needed to happen. All at once. And we're obsessed over this. I mean, I'll straight up tell you, I'm unhealthily obsessed over what happened in Butler, Pennsylvania. And you should be too. Never has there been a more mask off, bald faced shriek of evil. And they were sloppy about it. Here's just one very short clip from our documentary that really goes into detail about how much they wanted to kill Trump that day. You know, you, I'm telling you, your local bank, if you bank at a community bank, was more secure than President Trump's rally that day. My event last night, which is a couple hundred kids at the University of Florida, was more secure than Trump's rally that day, was it not, Klein? We were like, we were inside of, we were inside of an enclosed room. There were, there was checkpoints everywhere. There were police officers, cops, private security. Everything was checked, everything was vetted, everything was thorough. We had a great time, we rocked, we rolled, we had a ball with the kids. But like, dude, my event last night, our humble little event at the University of Florida, was far more secure than the President of the United States standing in an open field. I can prove it right here. A security dead zone is an area at an event where the general public can enter and exit without ever being screened by security. Did you know that There was a 3 acre security dead zone 80 yards away from President Trump with cloud clear line of sight to the stage that conveniently happened to be right in front of the AGR manufacturing building? The chaos that this security dead zone created allowed for Thomas Crooks to scope out the building with a rangefinder and eventually climb up to his sniper's nest and shoot President Trump. So anyone carrying any bag or anything could have walked right up to the Spence line.
Tim Burchett
Yeah, they were all.
Benny Johnson
Yeah, they were all.
Tim Burchett
And if you look at where that orange flag is on the ground, I mean, that's essentially the stage area.
Benny Johnson
Any person, let's just assume that person is a paramilitary trained individual with terrorist connections who walked across our southern border. Just for worst case scenario, any group or anyone could have walked right up to this fence line and been how far away from the President?
Tim Burchett
Roughly from here. What do you got? 1, 100 yards. You've got a backpack with a concealed collapsible that you set down, unzip and pull. From here, you're 100 yards.
Benny Johnson
And what's to stop 15 men from doing that?
Tim Burchett
Nothing.
Benny Johnson
And at the same time that they could have parked on the side of the road, walked that back path by.
Tim Burchett
The water tower and come straight to this point and you're 100 yards without even have ever. Every touch to security element.
Benny Johnson
There are plenty of people who are willing to die to take a shot at the President no matter who the President is. President Trump's particularly high target, high value target. There's no doubt that there would be 15 men with terrorist associations in the country right now. Well, I think that if you look.
Tim Burchett
At the 400 plus who's crossed our open borders on the known terrorist watch list, I think that it's very self.
Benny Johnson
Evident that we all know that they're here.
Tim Burchett
It's just a matter of if and when.
Benny Johnson
What are we even doing here?
Tim Burchett
Man.
Benny Johnson
That makes me fear for Trump's life every single day. Honestly, what they were able to pull off here, it makes me fear for his life every day. I don't know exactly who you know it'd be Sean Kieran. I hear that he's good. He's in charge of the Secret Service now. But man, I like just pray for President Trump. Pray for President Trump. Through all this it has been, it has been just wild to watch. I just, I can't help myself. It's just one. Can't help myself. Just one more.
Tim Burchett
Hello, friends.
Benny Johnson
Guess who? That's right. It is I, the replacer. Once again I've been called. Hold on. So you can play the new Call of Duty Black Ops 7 with three expansive modes, 18 multiplayer maps, and the tastiest zombie gameplay you've ever freaking seen. Call of Duty Black Ops 7 available now. Rated M for mature, ladies and gentlemen. It's just something that you get that, that is inc. That is utterly inconceivable to me that we found when we were there in Butler. The Overwatch collapse. Here it is. It is. It is despicable. Having the high ground is the most important element of any fortress. It's why castles were built, it's why turrets were built. It's how Obi Wan won against Anakin. Here we go. The assassin would have been easily identified and tracked with modern Overwatch capabilities. Yet drone technology was not used by the Secret Service and was turned down when locals offered. This is why Crooks was hard to follow on the ground and on the rooftop. But even without drones, the shooter could have easily, easily been neutralized by correctly positioned sniper teams. The water tower in Butler is a point of great controversy, not because there was a shooter there, but because there wasn't. Why was there no sniper team positioned as overwatch on the highest point in the entire county during the Trump rally?
Tim Burchett
Anybody even get up in that water tower to check lines of sight angle. Again, look around you guys. It is, is the highest point on this entire observation point on this entire property.
Benny Johnson
Did anybody even get up and, you.
Tim Burchett
Know, do a site survey on that water tower?
Benny Johnson
Our drone footage of the water tower shows what a perfect location this would be for overwatch. This simple graphic shows how easy it would have been for a sniper positioned on the water tower to have tracked, engaged and neutralized crooks before he ever got a shot off on President Trump. I don't have a security background. I've never been in the armed forces. I've never been in law enforcement. This is like the, like the simplest. My three year old could understand this. They do, by the way. You ever watch kids play? They're constantly seeking out the high ground in order to attack their siblings. Stupid are we, man? So I don't know, man. It's looking to me like Thomas Crooks was groomed. I've asked. It's not like I haven't asked. I've asked. I've got nothing. I've got nothing. I have been told that the FBI has a ton, a enormous amount of evidence that hasn't been released and that it's being held up for what exactly? Unlike in Charlie's situation, there is no trial. There is no one in handcuffs in a prison cell. There is no one in one of those, like, little, you know, jackets they put you in, like, awaiting trial with his lawyers arguing this and that. Nothing. This is what happened. It is on camera from 50 different angles. We do see the shooting from 50 different angles. You can see everything that's happening that day. And now they're either hiding or destroying evidence. And why would they do that? If it was just a lone wolf douchebag. If it was just some douche. Last thing I'll say on it. Slashing. I'll say on it.
Tucker Carlson
I know, I know, I know.
Benny Johnson
We spent the whole show on this. I do obsess over this. If this was some loner douche, even if he had turned against Trump, right, suddenly becomes anti Trump. He was pro Trump, then becomes anti Trump. If this was some loner scumbag and he really did just luck out that day, why conceal all the evidence? Why destroy all the evidence? Just out with it. Oh, yeah, here he is talking in his stupid discord and here's his dumb jokes and here's his comments and here's everything, you know, he did. And then, yeah, he, you know, it's a huge security failure. I'm gonna resign. She's gonna resign. That's too bad. We fall on our, you know, we fall on our swords, we get hoisted on our petards, you know, and edit. It's a failure of, of all of us because this, this absolute, you know, douche nozzle was able to come through and get a couple shots off of the President and we failed. Here's all the evidence. Here's who he was, here's what's going on. Here's toxicology report. You know, the only thing he did was hit a vape every once in a while. Why not do that? Why not do that? Why delete the way back archives? Why go into the archives of the Wayback Machine and shut them all down? You know how powerful you have to be to be able to do that? Do you know how connected you have to be to be able to like, wipe someone from the Internet to not even have the way back? Like, if I tweet something stupid photo of my foot or something, like, my kids sometimes grab my phone, they put something up, you know, they pound, pound the numbers and that go. That's, that's all logged. Everything I ever put up is logged. Everything. Delete. It doesn't matter. It's logged. Except for Thomas Crooks. He gets protected. Who has the power to do that? Exactly. The final thing I'll say on this is then why? Why what? What are you hiding? The dude got yeeted. He got his head blown off. And so what are you hiding exactly? That guy is like, you know, school teacher, school counselor, parents, you know, lived in like, little, little home, you know, in Butler, Pennsylvania. Like, what exactly are you hiding here? What they're hiding, what's obvious is they're hiding a network that groomed and, or directed this activity from this broken young man. That's what's being hidden. And if I'm wrong, which I have been before. Prove it. Release everything. Show me that he just somehow radicalized himself and flipped on President Trump all by himself and bought a bunch of bombs all by himself and bought a bunch of rifles all by himself and trained with the FBI all by himself and trained with the Department of Homeland Security all by himself and came up with these ideas himself and that he just like straight up lucked out that day. Last thing I'll show you. And you should burn this into the back of your skull like I have. Burn this in the back of your skull. The image of him on his phone, the image of Thomas Matthew Crooks in the minutes leading up to him killing Trump, him killing Corey Conferent or and nearly killing Trump, hitting Trump in the head with a bullet in the minutes before that happened. A sniper who was then inexplicably locked out of his sniper nest so that he couldn't kill, so he couldn't neutralize crooks. Crooks was on his phone with someone. What was he doing? Who was he on the phone with? Who is he talking with? Who's he getting orders from here? Who's he getting directions from? What the hell was going on on his phone in that second? We deserve to know. It is our right as Americans to know. This greasy scum changed the course of history. He nearly changed the course. No, he changed the course of history. Okay? Hit President Trump in the head with a bullet. That changed history. We deserve to know who was giving him orders that day. Who was allowing him to fly his drone? Who was telling him where the security weaknesses were? Who was telling him that the snipers would be locked out of their sniper nest or there was no overwatch, whether he was free to fly the drone or that they'd take his tr. His tail off him. There's footage. I haven't seen it in a long time, and I'm not asking Alex to find it. This is a tough one. There's footage of a police officer who was set with the mission to actually take crooks. Who was a person of interest that day. Obviously he'd been flagged that day by the Secret Service. Don't let this guy in. He's behaving very strange. There's a police officer that was trailing him. And there's footage from the police car, from the police cruiser of crooks again, lumbering and lunking around with his black backpack. And he's skulking all around the AGR Building, American Glass Research Building, where he fired the shots from. Why didn't that cop follow him? Why did that cop just let him go? Why didn't that cop do more things? Who called that cop off? Who told that cop go away? Who canceled the investigation into the J6 pipe bomber? Same person, I'm sure. All right. Why do we. Why do we go off on this kind of stuff? Go off on this kind of stuff? Because it's how we lose the country, dude. I'll just say it. I'll just roll it up like. I'll roll it up like this. I'm no doomer. I'm. I like. I like a white pill, you know? I don't like dooming on the audience. Black pilling the audience. I'm saying this kind of stuff. Because it actually is endemic to the collapse of a country. The ways a country collapses goes like this. The institutions built by good and decent and honorable men that are created in order for the public trust to do one thing, which is to serve the people of the nation. That's the sole and only purpose of your government. Those institutions slowly get eroded. People stop believing in them. Those institutions which are properly formed, the architecture of which point up obviously in our country to a God and a higher power. The people who overtake those institutions start believing their God. They start acting like gods. They believe that they are in charge of truth, that they answer to no one. They don't answer to a higher power. They don't answer to us, the American people. They believe they can do whatever they want. John Kennedy, he becomes inconvenient. Murder him, Trump. He's running. He's a threat to our power. Murder him. January 6th. Stage a riot, plant fake bombs, lock everyone up. Deny the National Guard. We need a terrorist event. Well, the right's not violent, but we need a terrorist event. Okay, we'll make one up with Gretchen Whitmer. We'll create the conditions for terrorist events throughout the country. For my entire life, which they've done, by the way, and they've never apologized for it. We'll lie to the American people about weapons of mass destruction in Iraq and will constantly and further erode the faith of these institutions by raiding President Trump's house at Mar a Lago and allowing, even after Thomas Crooks takes pashas of the president, another deranged lunatic that was clearly under the control of the CIA and foreign governments, based on his neurotic obsession with Ukraine and his travel to Ukraine, his usage of Ukraine war fighting methods. We'll let this guy also try and kill Trump. We'll let it all happen. Those kind of evil people that think like that, they take over the government institutions. Those institutions get corrupted so much that no one can believe anything that's coming out of them. And we lose all trust in our society. We lose trust in the things that bind us together. If we lose trust in our government, what else is left to bind us together? Well, a common heritage, a common religion. Well, we don't have that anymore in this country. They've whittled that down to nothing as well. It is the practice of atomization. Diversity is our strength. Bullshit. No, strength is our strength. Diversity is not your strength. Diversity is not your strength. In your marriage, it's not your strengths. Take an Uber somewhere and the guy doesn't speak English. It's not your strength with Mohammed. That's your doordash driver. No, it's not. They atomize everything. They're like grinding it all into the ground and then you have nothing left in common with your fellow man in your country. You don't trust your government, you don't believe the elections are real, you don't believe any of the numbers are real, you don't believe any of the data is real. And, and you isolate and then you atomize. You can create the environment for a civil war, which is of course what they were trying to do by killing Trump. You create the environment for secretarian violence, for full and complete and total state control. You come in and then you seize, you undergird all of those things. You create the circumstances for mass government, for mass totalitarian control. It's happened before in history, it's happening here right now. And of course the final leg that they kick out is open immigration. Flood the country with third world masses that come in and change the culture forever, that no one trusts, that behave criminally, that agitate and that then oppress, eventually rise up and oppress the natives and heritage members of that nation who had gotten fat, happy, lazy, slovenly and had lost all trust in the institutions anyway. That's how you topple a good and well founded nation. It's happened in Rome, it's happened in Greece, it's happened in micronations all throughout and micro empires all throughout human history and it's happening here right now. And so I spend all day on this and obsess over this in Butler because it is a marquee moment for the federal government to say, you can trust us, we believe that you can handle it. You're big boys. Same thing with the Epstein. Honestly, same thing with Epstein. It's the same thing. We believe that you can handle it. So we're going to give you all of the information. You may not like it, you may hurt your feelings, but yes, yes, Thomas Crooks was being groomed and mind controlled by these dark and mysterious entities from either abroad or domestically. And yes, it was being funded by USAID the whole time or whatever. Yes, we did know Matthew Thomas Crooks ahead of time. We did nothing to stop it. The agents involved are now under federal investigation. This goes way deeper than you know. Here's all the available evidence. That's how you actually restore trust. You can't restore trust any other way. Absolute and total openness. That's how you restore trust in a relationship with your wife, your girlfriend. You have absolute and total Candor. You don't lie to them and most importantly, you don't continue lies. Right. As you gain trust with people, you want to establish a perfect and clean slate where you're being totally forthright and they can trust you and you can trust them. That's what we're calling for here. And that's why we obsess, obsess over these kind of stories, ladies and gentlemen. Anyway, let's check. Let's change topics. Oh, you want to talk about Christmas? I do.

What does, what do the odds say here? Ah, okay. Where will they meet? Sorry about that. Where will Trump and Putin meet? Okay. I really kind of want this to happen. I'm kind of sick, frankly, of so much of our time and energy being spent on international issues, a lot of issues here at home. So let's go to the next one. Honestly, I just, I don't even. I don't like it. Honestly, I like it. Will there be new nuclear detonations in 2025? Trump says he's going to start testing nuclear weapons again. That's down to a 3% chance. I think that's a good thing. I want more nuclear power, not more nuclear weapons. But nonetheless, I understand President Trump as a negotiating tactic, talking about nuclear, so I get it. But once again, I want our focus to be on the domestic issues of this nation and the critical problems therein. So, ladies and gentlemen, we get to our Ask Benny anything question. Question of the day from the brigade and from the chat. Let's go. I love, I love that, that sticker. All right, here we go. I have a question in regards to the Turning Point event at Clemson university. I live 30 minutes away and I really want to go. Go. My question is, where do I buy a couple of tickets to show my support? The event link is in the description right there. We don't have to. You don't have to buy anything. Megan and I look forward to meeting you. But the event link is in the description and you can get to it at eventspusa.com events2pusa.com from Joost Griffin. Benny, what do you Predict the first thing is going wrong in New York will be. Well, it's already gone wrong, Joost. What's gone wrong in New York is that the entire tax base is fleeing and New York has lost trillions of dollars in their tax base and they've lost hundreds of thousands, if not millions of people. Residents. These are the high income residents. And when you run out of those people to tax, well, what are you going to do? They've all fled and it's going to accelerate, obviously. Photos of Mandami meeting with Elizabeth Warren. You're gonna have like an entire city run by Elizabeth Warren. Get ready. Anthony Romano says I don't have a question. Indeed, I just need to tell you thank you. Been subscribed to you on YouTube for a long time. Your impact in life has and has been a grace from God, your verse of the day and your messaging oath to the truth. Respectfully, I love all that you do for us. Well, thank you, Anthony. We are humbled by God's grace. I love what the congressman said. I don't know why I get to be the congressman, but that's just what God's called me to do. I don't know why we're here. Like, it's just like when you're a believer, I firmly and truthfully believe as a simple Christian in our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. When you are a believer, what you do is you just walk, walk, walk, walk. And God opens doors or closes them, sometimes gently, sometimes really harshly. And when things are opened unto you, God demands action. He demands that you continue to move that direction. And that's what we've been doing. We don't know what happens next. We're excited for the future. There are a lot of really exciting things happening. I can't wait to share them all with you. But it's all because of you joining together in this chat, in this movement and all of us fighting together to save the country for our kids. That's what this is all about. The Trump assassination stories, the glorious election night evenings and the battles that lay ahead. That's what this is all about. So now it's time to put the pedal to the metal, hit the bricks and go do the work. And we're going to be there for you and we're going to, you know, we're going to, we're going to fight with you, Anthony. It's a great honor to do so. Our verse of the day. Let's go. Speaking of Anthony, Anthony Romano's shout out to our verse of the day from Psalm 118 of good. Psalm. It is the day that Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be glad in it. The old Bible school Sunday school song. It is the day the Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be glad in it. Ladies and gentlemen, we are glad. We're trying our level headed best to just practice gratitude and something that I think is probably the virtue in shortest supply in modern America where neuroticism and envy reigns supreme. We are trying our hardest in our level headed best to simply practice gratitude. And so let me say this. I rejoice. I rejoice in this day. I rejoice in what God is doing. I rejoice in our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. I rejoice in this audience. I rejoice in the team at this company that makes all of this possible. That of course puts the show together, redlining virtually every single morning to make sure that we can deliver for you. We are 100% independent. We have no corporate donors or hedge funds or people who own the company. We secretly own this company. No, it's us. You're looking at them. And behind me is a stacked group of incredible creators and artists and news junkies and autists who make this show happen every single day for you and makes the channels happen every single day for you. And as God is my witness, it is our honor to serve you every day in this space. And so go forth and have a wonderful weekend in this, the greatest country on earth. Still certainly gifted by God. It's your boy, Benny. Let's go win. See ya. A new story has broke. We need to cover. Divert power to the thumb drive and load the meme cannons. Jerry, those memes better be good. They're as good as they're going to get, boss. Danny, full power on the reactor core. I am giving it all she got. Captain. The thumb drive is ready, sir.

Episode: 🚨Trump Assassin BOMBSHELL: Thomas Crooks FBI Coverup EXPOSED, Groomed To Kill Trump?! Feds Knew...
Host: Benny Johnson
Guest: Rep. Tim Burchett
Date: November 14, 2025
This episode breaks down Tucker Carlson’s major exposé on the attempted Trump assassination by Thomas Crooks, uncovering explosive allegations of a federal cover-up and potential grooming or manipulation of Crooks by dark actors. Benny Johnson, live and energized, brings Rep. Tim Burchett to discuss the implications of these findings, federal accountability, and the deep mistrust woven into the system. The episode is a passionate, detail-heavy look at the supposed failures or malevolence of federal agencies entrusted with the president’s safety.
“There is so much more to learn, ladies and gentlemen... a whistleblower came to Tucker Carlson and gave him some remarkable evidence about who Thomas Crooks was and what may have happened on that dark day.” (Benny Johnson, 02:36)
"A hundred miracles had to occur in sequence for Thomas Crooks to actually fire his weapon and not get killed or arrested… This was an obvious op." (Benny Johnson, 24:20)
“Right there.” (Tim Burchett, 24:14)
“You see him? He’s laying down.” (Benny & Burchett, 24:16)
[36:19] Carlson traces Crooks’ radicalization:
"In my opinion, the only way to fight the government is with terrorism style attacks. Sneak a bomb into an essential building and set it off before anyone sees you... Try to assassinate them…”
Crooks' social media wiped post-incident, with evidence suggesting FBI complicity in erasing Wayback Archives and online history.
“There is no doubt that Crooks was ripe for recruitment by someone.” (Tucker Carlson, 42:31)
"This is what I saw during COVID. ... That goes right back to what you were saying. You got a kid...he was programmed." (Tim Burchett, 71:55)
"Never will be. ... The files have been destroyed, you'll never find this stuff out." (Burchett, 79:37)
"The practice of atomization. Diversity is our strength. Bullshit. No, strength is our strength... That’s how you topple a good and well founded nation.” (Benny Johnson, 100:09)
On the Openness of the Assassination Attempt:
On the FBI's Actions:
Carlson’s Key Questions to the FBI [55:34–59:21]:
Rep. Burchett on Mind Control and Programmed Killers:
Evoking Faith and Personal Stakes:
On Future Action:
For listeners: If you haven’t followed the assassination attempt story closely, this episode provides a passionate, conspiratorial, and deeply skeptical perspective on both the event and the wider state of federal law enforcement and political transparency. The show is thick with detail, impassioned testimony, and unresolved, angry questions demanding an honest national reckoning.
