Attorney General Todd Blanche on Tuesday told reporters that “new information” about the assassination attempt against President Trump has been provided to the Senate and that the FBI didn’t do much to protect the President before the incident.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, President Trump went off on former FBI Director Chris Wray earlier, revealing that “most of the information” from the assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania, in July 2024 “was missing, altered, corrupted, or gone.”
“Everybody knows the Crooked Joe Biden FBI didn’t do what they should have with respect to the Lunatic who shot me in Butler, PA,” Trump said. “This was all a Democrat Plot, to get me out of the Election, that failed. Dirty Cop Christopher Wray should pay a price for the way he handled this assassination attempt, and certainly for the things he said.”
Asked on Tuesday, as the reporter framed it, about “new evidence” and Trump saying that “Wray should be punished for his lack of oversight during this investigation,” Blanche told reporters that “new information” had been provided to the Senate regarding “the shooter and about his background, about his history, and that’s stuff that we didn’t know before.”
“It’s not really clear what the leadership of the FBI were doing in the weeks and months ahead of the attempted assassination to protect President Trump,” he added.
“That’s the same organization that was simultaneously trying to put him in prison till he dies. So, his frustration and concern about what the former director was doing is something that is not new.”
