“How can you people call others sheep, but you are [too] brainwashed to realize how dumb you are,” he wrote on Feb. 26, 2020.
“I mean literally you guys sound like a cult at times.”
In August 2020, Crooks posted that “the only way to fight the gov is with terrorism style attacks,” urging followers to bomb essential buildings and assassinate political leaders.
Rod Swanson, a former senior FBI agent and former chief of investigations for Nevada during the 2017 Las Vegas shooting, said there is no scenario in which the FBI would have missed Crooks’ online behavior.
“No matter how ridiculous the allegation, no matter if it’s COVID or not, somebody is going to knock on somebody’s door,” Swanson said.
“If they investigated that kid there’s a record of it and there’s an assessment that some leader made that this was not a threat or it rose to a level and they did something else.”
Devine also noted Crooks’ identification with “they/them” pronouns on the art platform DeviantArt, a major hub for the furry community.
She wrote that he showed a deep interest in anthropomorphized animal characters, often associated with sexual themes.
Lance Twiggs, Robinson’s roommate, was also reportedly involved in the furry subculture.
Turning Point USA’s Jack Posobiec said Robinson’s trial should be televised.
“There’s questions coming out about the strange relationship between Lance Twiggs and Tyler Robinson,” Posobiec said.
“Drug use, obsessions with ChatGPT, the furry lifestyle, black market HRT (hormone treatment).”
Both the Crooks and Robinson cases appear to involve similar underlying mental health struggles.
22 PEOPLE Hurt by Collapsed Balcony
22 PEOPLE Hurt by Collapsed Balcony
A balcony collapse in Geelong last night saw 22 party-goers injured and and a disaster plan activated.
Police said no charges would be laid over the near tragedy, with the building's age and overcrowding blamed for the collapse of a timber floor which sent 30 people tumbling four metres to the ground.
Twenty-two people were treated at Geelong Hospital with six admitted and five operated on today for injuries sustained in the incident.
Police said the toll could have been higher, with children reported to have been playing under the balcony shortly before its collapse.
A hospital spokesman said all those injured were in a stable condition.
The 30 people were dancing on the balcony during a 21st birthday celebration at the Corio Bay Rowing Club, which overlooks the Barwon River, when the floor gave way about 9pm.
Fifty emergency services personnel attended the scene as Geelong's disaster plan was activated.
"(There were) people everywhere, injured people being treated by emergency services people and members of the public," Country Fire Authority (CFA) regional duty officer Barry Foss said.
"There was debris because the balcony collapsed, fortunately there was no one under it."
Police, WorkCover and City of Greater Geelong engineers examined the site last night.
"There's no further (police) investigations, it's an accident that's occurred," Senior Sergeant Ken Scott said.
"It's a civil matter now ... (and) obviously there will be some big claims over it.
"Insurance companies will all be notified on Monday."
The building is on Crown land and is managed by the Victorian Government's Corangamite Catchment Management Authority which leased it out to the rowing club.
Snr Sgt Scott said there was no suggestion of shoddy workmanship, rather the age of the building, which dates back to the 1930s, and the number of people on the balcony at the time.
"It was the sheer volume of people plus they were dancing and the added stress of that caused it (the balcony) to give way," he said.
Most of the injured were treated for leg fractures, cuts and abrasions.
Berkeley balcony collapse: Families of students killed in tragedy fly to US as Ireland mourns
Investigations have started into how the balcony fell off an apartment building as they celebrated a 21st birthday during a summer trip to California
Eimear Walsh, 21, Eoghan Culligan, 21, Olivia Burke, 21, Niccolai Schuster, 21, Ashley Donohoe, 22, and Lorcan Miller, 21, all died (Facebook)
Flags are flying at half-mast across Ireland today as the families of five students killed when the balcony they were standing on collapsed travel to California.
Olivia Burke, Eimear Walsh, Eoghan Culligan, Niccolai Schuster and Lorcan Miller, all aged 21, were at a birthday party in the university town of Berkeley when the tragedy happened yesterday.
A sixth victim, 22-year-old Ashley Donohoe, lived in California but had dual Irish-American citizenship and was Ms Burke’s cousin, Irish media reported.
They were among at least a dozen people standing on the fourth-floor balcony when it collapsed shortly after midnight local time, plunging them 40ft to the ground.
A 21-year-old woman whose birthday was being celebrated is believed to be in a critical condition in hospital, where six other people are being treated for their injuries.
Investigations have started into why the balcony fell from the Library Gardens apartment complex, which is popular with students at the University of California and visiting Irish people in the summer.
Photos after the collapse appeared to show rotten wood where it had broken off the outside of the building.
Investigations will examine if the cantilevered structure had been affected by dry rot or water damage and use of other balconies in the complex has been banned.
Investigators said the building code for 2007, when the property was completed, would have included a 60lbs-per-square-foot rule for the balcony, and with 13 people on the structure it may have been overloaded.
Photos from the scene showed it tipped onto the balcony below, with the pavement beneath covered in debris, clothing, shoes and red cups.
Police said they received a noise complaint about an hour before the balcony collapsed but had not responded by the time of the tragedy at around 12.41am local time (8.41am BST) because of shooting elsewhere in the city.
The Irish students had only been in California for a few weeks, on J-1 visas for a cultural exchange programme that would have seen them working for three months and travelling for another.
It is considered a rite of passage for thousands of Irish students every year and around 700 are currently believed to be in the San Francisco Bay Area for the summer.
Tributes have been pouring in for those killed and injured in the accident, which has shocked Berkeley as well as Ireland.
Foreign Affairs Minister Charlie Flanagan called it an “appalling loss of life for young people whose hopes and dreams of the future have suddenly and without notice been shattered".
Three of the victims - Mr Miller, Mr Schuster and Ms Walsh - studied at University College Dublin and Mr Culligan also lived in the city.
The renowned Ballyboden St Endas Gaelic football club, which he played for since childhood, paid tribute.
"Eoghan was very popular with his team mates and this tragic news is keenly felt by all members of our Club, but especially by those players and mentors who knew him well," a statement said.
Marcus O'Halloran, University College Dublin student union president, said: ”I can't imagine the grief of the families and friends of those students involved. I can only extend my deepest sympathies and say that my heart goes out to them and all those affected by this catastrophe.
“This is a tragic loss, it affects the entire student community and all families in this country. I can only express my deepest condolences once again to all those affected.”
A number of the students at the party were from Dublin and were also past pupils of St Mary's College in Rathmines, finishing their studies there.
The first relatives arrived on the US west coast overnight and others were leaving Ireland this morning.
Philip Grant, consul general with the Irish Department of Foreign Affairs in San Francisco, said the country was “frozen in shock”.
“We are a very close, tight-knit group,” he added. “Ireland is a small country and when you have the numbers that we had here today very few of us have been left untouched by this tragedy.”

Peter Doocy Provides Big Update On Would-Be Trump Assassin
Fox News’ Peter Doocy provided chilling details after a report this week indicated a possible connection between President Donald Trump’s would-be assassin, Thomas Crooks, and Tyler Robinson, the man charged with killing Turning Point USA’s Charlie Kirk
“Insisting there is nothing helpful in Thomas Crooks’ digital footprint, there are newly discovered posts believed to be linked to Crooks showing him with guns and showing him with an affinity for assassins. There is a new push to visit bipartisan congressional investigation as investigators claim they were never briefed about any Crooks posts,” Doocy said on Fox & Friends while outside the White House.
“I want to know everything there is to know about this country. I think our country deserves it. I think our family deserves it. I think the world deserves it. By the way, forked credibility of the Secret Service, and I love men and women of the Secret Service, dear friends, better get the real story up. Lack of information could be
made public so far,” Doocy added.
“People at the FBI said the president assured them he is satisfied with the investigation of what he has been told. What are you to believe? People who brief the president or Miranda, Levine of the New York Post, or both, or maybe the president changed his mind,” co-host Brian Kilmeade said.
New reporting indicates a connection between Crooks and Robinson.
TPUSA spokesman Andrew Kolvet said the development is “a five-alarm fire,” responding Monday on social media to a report by New York Post columnist Miranda Devine.
Devine highlighted Crooks’ online interest in transgenderism and the “furry” subculture. Robinson’s roommate was described as his transgender partner, who also reportedly had a furry fetish.
Devine reported that investigators have provided little clarity about Crooks’ motive for attempting to assassinate then-candidate Trump in July 2024.
“Crooks was shot dead by a Secret Service sniper, but not before he killed rallygoer Corey Comperatore, 50, and seriously wounded David Dutch, 58, and James Copenhaver, 75, who were sitting in the bleachers behind Trump,” Devine wrote.

“There is something very wrong with the official story and that invites conspiracy theories,” she said.
Devine added that a source revealed new details from Crooks’ digital footprint, including posts showing he shifted from enthusiastically pro-Trump to openly hostile toward the former president and his supporters beginning in 2020.
