What a great article, I’ve never heard of this organization.

On another, less idyllic note, when is the FP going to do some investigating on the Trump shooter?? What an absolutely bizarre scenario—he has basically no online presence and a month later no one is talking about who this is and why he did it? Like we’re all supposed to forget about it? When there’s a school shooting there are countless articles about the shooter and his life story, friends, family, etc, etc.

It definitely feels like the assassination attempt is being memory-holed. At least FP acknowledges it, which is more than many other outlets.

The story is done. FBI already looked at his online footprint (small), had no friends, cellphone didn’t provide any info either. Parents already investigated too. What exactly do you expect a journalist to find?

I think there’s more to the story. The lack of information on the shooter combined with the way the secret service ignored him until he actually fired a shot seems very fishy.
