Email from American Values Plus, Biden's Legacy.   Fighting For Faith, Family & Freedom Tuesday, November 18, 2025 To: Friends & Supporters From: Gary Bauer Day 303  It’s Day 303 of President Trump’s second term. No one has lost their Social Security, Medicare, or veterans’ benefits in spite of constant media and leftist lies. We Demand The Truth The story we told you about yesterday regarding the newly discovered social media history of failed Trump assassin Thomas Crooks has gained a lot of traction, but only on Fox News and conservative media sites. Big media remains totally uninterested in how one young man was able to elude all Secret Service safeguards and nearly kill Donald Trump in the middle of the most important election in modern U.S. history. One prominent voice demanding answers is Helen Comperatore, the widow of Corey Comperatore, who died shielding his family from the hail of bullets. There have always been multiple unanswered questions regarding the events in Butler, Pennsylvania. For example: Why was the building that Crooks accessed unprotected? The roof of that building obviously provided a clear line of sight and had been identified as a security risk BEFORE the rally. Was it just a coincidence that Secret Service drones didn’t work but the assassin’s drone did work? Crooks, who was going nowhere in life, had a more effective surveillance effort in the sky than the agency charged with protecting a former president of the United States! Early in the first Trump administration, Crooks appeared to be pro-Trump and disliked Democrats. But suddenly, as the Biden administration began, he morphed into a Trump-hater. How does that translate into “no clear ideological motivation”? That’s not just the confusion of a young man; it’s a journey into radicalization. That radicalization led Crooks to post comments like this: “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/politicians/military leaders, etc., and try to assassinate them.” How did the FBI miss this? And isn’t the FBI interested in how this radicalization happened? (See next item.) Miranda Devine, who is a credible columnist at the New York Post, said the Post had sources who provided new information about Crooks’s social media history. Now reporters protect their sources, but the source itself could be revealing. Is this source in the FBI but unable to get this information to the current leadership? Or, was this source formerly in the FBI under Biden and is now trying to expose a cover-up? The source told the New York Post that Crooks had accounts on 17 different online platforms. What?! Again, how did the FBI miss this? A Disturbing Theory Rep. Tim Burchett (R-TN) has a theory about Thomas Crooks. The congressman told popular conservative influencer Benny Johnson that may have been part of a Deep State plot to kill Donald Trump. Referring to MK ULTRA, a secret CIA program that experimented with mind control, Burchett said: “He was programmed. . . They programmed this kid. . . The facts have been buried or burned or whoever knew is either sittin’ on a beach somewhere . . . or I would suggest they’re probably dead. . . “You can call me a lunatic, but when the CIA says . . . ‘We don’t have this thing,’ and then their a**es are brought into a court of law and they say, ‘Well, we have it, but we don’t use it anymore.’ Apparently, somebody’s using it.” Rep. Burchett’s allegations are deeply disturbing. But given everything the Deep State did to Donald Trump and everything we have seen in recent years about our intelligence agencies turning their vast powers meant to protect us against us, it would be foolish to simply dismiss such concerns. Another Biden Cover-up? During the Biden administration, whenever transgender individuals committed serious acts of violence, including murder, federal agencies always scrambled to suppress that information. Biden’s FBI quashed the release of the manifesto left by the transgender shooter who murdered six people in a Nashville Christian school. It took years, a lawsuit, and new leadership at the FBI for that manifesto to be released. At the same time, Biden’s FBI and Justice Department were pushing the false narrative that right-wing violence was skyrocketing. Thomas Crooks could be another example of the Biden administration’s push to downplay any violence by the Left while exaggerating anything on the Right. The Plaskett Files Democrats and their fake news media allies have been using the Epstein files all year to harass Donald Trump and distract the American people. Today, they got what they have been demanding. The House of Representatives voted 427 to 1 to compel the Justice Department to release the files. There’s one Democrat who probably doesn’t want to talk about Jeffrey Epstein—Delegate Stacey Plaskett of the Virgin Islands. Plaskett’s name came up in a recent release of Epstein files. During a congressional hearing in 2019, Plaskett questioned Michael Cohen, Donald Trump’s turncoat attorney. She was getting guidance in real time from Jeffrey Epstein. Here’s one of their text exchanges: EPSTEIN: “Cohen brought up RONA - keeper of the secrets.” PLASKETT: “RONA?? Quick I’m up next is that an acronym?” EPSTEIN: “That’s his assistant.” Normally, members of Congress get such information from their staff. In this case, Jeffrey Epstein was acting as Plaskett’s staff during a hearing in which Trump’s former attorney was trying to bring the president down. What is the relationship between Plaskett and Epstein that she was texting him in the middle of a congressional hearing? It’s actually rather extensive. She had to be publicly shamed into giving up the campaign donations Epstein made to her. Plaskett should be put under oath and forced to answer questions about her dealings with Jeffrey Epstein. As other political observers have noted, Jeffrey Epstein hated Donald Trump so much, he was literally coaching Democrats on how to impeach him. If he had any evidence against Trump, he certainly would have used it then. Meanwhile, the Epstein files claimed another scalp—Democrat Lawrence Summers, Bill Clinton’s Treasury Secretary and Barack Obama’s top economic policy adviser. Other prominent Democrats may be next. About Those Files. . . We have repeatedly pointed out that if there was any “dirt” on Donald Trump in the Epstein files, it would have been released by the Biden administration. But they didn’t release anything. But now, Democrats are demanding that the files be released. Isn’t that curious? They have had four years to alter the Epstein files and plant bombs throughout the files. They have top Deep State operatives at the FBI and the CIA who lie for a living, know how to create false documents, and push false narratives like the Russia collusion hoax to manipulate public opinion. And now, all of a sudden, Democrats are demanding those files be released. Here are some additional points to keep in mind: The Trump administration has already released at least 65,000 pages of documents related to Epstein. Democrats have been caught deliberately distorting information in those documents. Federal judges, not Donald Trump, are blocking the release of additional Epstein files. Biden’s Legacy Akhror Bozorov, an illegal alien, showed up at the southern border in 2023. The Biden administration welcomed him into the country and gave him a work permit. Eventually, he lands in Pennsylvania, where he obtains a commercial driver’s license to operate 18-wheelers. Bozorov was arrested recently by federal immigration police. It turns out that he is wanted in his native Uzbekistan on terrorism charges. So, the Biden administration allowed an illegal alien wanted for terrorism to enter the United States and drive really big trucks all over America. But here’s just how unhinged today’s Left has become: If the Trump administration tries to go into Chicago, Los Angeles, or Charlotte to arrest him, hundreds of people would rush into the streets to protect Bozorov. The people doing this think they’re doing something noble. They know absolutely nothing about the people they are protecting. All they know is that Trump is trying to get them out of the country, and that’s enough for them to spit on, insult, obstruct, and even violently attack our immigration police who are simply enforcing our laws. By the way, there are a lot of videos online allegedly showing federal immigration police aggressively arresting people and tearing families apart. Many of them are fake.
