The CEO of the social networking website Gab has revealed posts that he claims may have been written by Donald Trump's would-be assassin Thomas Crooks.

Andrew Torba said on Wednesday that an unnamed law enforcement agency informed him that Crooks may have posted pro-Biden messages on Gab, a platform known for its alt-right users and conspiratorial content.

The @epicmicrowave account, which Torba has been unable to confirm belongs to Crooks, was last active on the site in 2021.
