FBI confirms Trump was hit by would-be ass@ssinâs bull3t after bureau director casted doubt on what really hit him
The FBI has confirmed that a bullet struck Donald Trumps ear during the July 13 assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania, two days after the director of the bureau said there was some question about what hit the former president. What struck former President Trump in the ear was a bullet, whether whole or fragmented into smaller pieces, fired from the deceased subjects rifle, read a statement released by the FBI. The FBI’s acknowledgment that Trump, 78, was indeed hit by one of the rounds fired by 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks comes after Trump fumed over FBI Director Christopher Wrays testimony before the House Judiciary Committee on Wednesday. With respect to former President Trump, theres some question about whether or not its a bullet or shrapnel that hit his ear, Wray told lawmakers. Trump, in a Truth Social post, claimed that Wray was wrong, and said the FBI never even checked to see what hit his ear, arguing that the FBI directors suggestion that it couldve been something other than a bullet is why the once storied FBI has lost the confidence of America. Trump asserted hours after the assassination attempt that he felt the bullet ripping through the skin after the shots rang out at the rally. Ronny Jackson, a lawmaker representing Texas who was Trumps former White House physician and attended to the ex-president after the shooting, noted Friday that there is absolutely no evidence that what struck Trumps ear was anything other than a bullet. In response to the FBIs statement, Trump said that he fully accepted Wrays apology.I assume thats the best apology that well get from Director Wray, but it is fully accepted! he wrote on Truth Social.Wray, 57, was hired by Trump for the top FBI spot back in 2017.
