    Counter sniper did not need permission to take out Crooks.

    Crooks position was identified the day before the shooting as a "well known high priority vulnerability".

    More and more, this looks like a major FUBAR by the SS and therefore Cheatle and Mayorkis should be shown the door by the Biden admin. However, that won't happen with Jill Biden playing puppet master.

    Yes, agreed. The Director is toast in due time. Onsite senior supervisors will need to answer a lot of questions too.

    Or people look for a conspiracy where none exists to bolster their BS narrative.

    The Floyd riots also had nothing to do with Dems. It was a social, not a political issue, but certain folks just love to point false fingers.

    His postings have always been concerning. You didn't see many of them because they were scrubbed by mods. He was so bad that one poster who became highly concerned ended up getting banned and no longer posts on GC. Was a great poster named mulegator. This was years ago.

    Very well stated... in every aspect and in the function of our country we are better off with a meritocracy.

    The synchronized video split screen shots prove that the cops/snipers had him in there sight for some time before they took him out... waited for the shooter to take several shots at Trump first.

    Also, what do you call a wannabe killer that's a registered republican that gives money to the Dems? A patsy.

    Perhaps he was a white supremacist that hated the pro-Israel wing of the GOP? Or maybe a right to lifer that hated Trumps waffling. White supremacist seem most likely since they do all the murders anyway.

    The head of SS should already be fired. Everyone else I’d wait for an investigation before discipline action but I’d assign those with shaky decision making to guard Commander or something.

    He didn’t make that $15 contribution. That was done by a 60 year old man with the same name who lived nearby. Had to be 21 to make that donation and the shooter was 16 i think.

    I think this is inaccurate. It was him and he was 17.

    No doubt she is gone but Sec of HS or Biden may wait thinking that more cooperation will be had from a current government employee than a former one. I dunno really.

    Looks like the counter sniper team flinched when Crooks fired, causing a delay in their response. See at 1:38 in this video. How on earth, with their guns sighted on Crooks did they allow him to fire first? Why was Crooks allowed to take his position and fire?

    It is not looking good for Cheatle and the SS ..... or Homeland Security's Mayorkas.
