19-year-old Trump assassination attempt gunman, Thomas Matthew Crooks, used encrypted messaging accounts on multiple foreign platforms.
Rep. Mike Waltz, a member of a House bipartisan task force investigating an assassination attempt on former President Trump, revealed that the gunman, Thomas Matthew Crooks, had used encrypted messaging accounts on multiple platforms based in Belgium, New Zealand, and Germany. Waltz questioned the need for a 19-year-old healthcare aide to have encrypted platforms abroad, where it is more difficult for US law enforcement to access, and criticized the FBI and Secret Service for not releasing information as they uncover it. Waltz also highlighted the ongoing threats against Trump and urged for accountability among officials who constructed security plans for Trump's rallies.
