An FBI official tells CNN that the Bureau is looking to interview convicted felon former President Trump in a standard operating procedure part to hear from the victim in its investigation of the failed assassination attempt by a Republican incel in Pennsylvania earlier this month.
Guarantee right now that – if he even does sit with agents – he’s going to have at least one lawyer present. The fat fuck is going to think this is some kind of “entrapment” operation against him.
In very much related news, even while there’s plenty of controversy over whether Trump’s ear was struck by a bullet or a piece of glass from a teleprompter during the shooting, the New York Times put together a detailed analysis and concluded the evidence “strongly suggests Mr Trump was grazed by the first of eight bullets fired by the gunman, Thomas Crooks.” National Zero’s editorial position is “who actually gives a fuck” whether it was a bullet or a shard of glass, though we can appreciate why some other anti-MAGA media outlets and personalities are eager to undermine Trump’s messianic “took a bullet for democracy” bullshit song-and-dance. It’s just that to us it’s a distinction without any meaningful difference when we’ve got a lot of other news to cover.
