    Looks like the Dems wet dream of that shooter being a Republican IS FALSE.
    It looks like he was a Biden supporter... shocking, I know. The FBI has some explaining to do.



    The story is this: the account for which data was requested was, UNEQUIVOCALLY, pro-Biden and in particular pro-Biden's immigration policy. To the best of Gab's knowledge, as of 2021, Crooks was a pro-lockdown, pro-immigration, left-wing Joe Biden supporter.

    That's obviously a fake post to make Joe Biden look bad. At this point everyone knows this assassination attempt was a false flag

    Went from a "conspiracy false flag" to a "Dem did it" within a week. Republicans are weird

    The actual truth is that Republicans and Dems accidentally hired the same dork to do the shooting. It's a Deep State thing. You wouldn't understand.

    As I stated in a couple of other posts rather than an absurd conspiracy the attempted assassination of former President Trump was the result of the converge of mulitiple bad decisions and screwups. Some examples (note: some are different descriptions of essentially the same errors):
    A 'unique' command set up contributed to security failure at Trump shooting: Secret Service

    Well, if this is true, it’s another black eye for the USSS DEI program. I wonder if the agent involved is a liberal….. no wait, she would only have a cat but no children.

    “The Secret Service is investigating a report that says an agent left her post at a Trump event to breastfeed.

    In a statement shared with Newsweek on Thursday, Secret Service's chief of communications, Anthony Guglielmi, said, "All employees of the U.S. Secret Service are held to the highest standards. While there was no impact to the North Carolina event, the specifics of this incident are being examined. Given this is a personnel matter, we are not in a position to comment further."

    The remarks come after RealClearPolitics correspondent Susan Crabtree said that a female Secret Service agent abandoned her post at former President Donald Trump's Wednesday campaign rally in Asheville, North Carolina, "to breastfeed with no permission/warning to the event site agent."

    "The site agent went to do one final sweep of the walking route and found the agent breast-feeding her child in a room that is supposed to be set aside for important Secret Service official work, i.e. a potential emergency related to the president," Crabtree wrote in a post on X,”

    While she should clearly be disciplined and possibly terminated her failure in North Carolina has nothing to do with the attempted assassination of former President Trump in Pennsylvania although I suppose that one could argue that it's an indicator that the Secret Service still hasn't addressed its shortcomings.

    If the culture is such that a secret service employee feels empowered to bring a family member and breast feed an infant, without permission, whether or not it is explicitly allowed or not, that is a serious breakdown in culture and communication from the top.

    First, we had the FBI playing the part of Winston Wolf a few days after the shooting.


    Now we are hearing it was a local who ultimately got the first shot on Crooks :

    • The 9th shot fired on J13 was from a Butler SWAT operator from the ground about 100 yards away from the AGR building. Shot 9 hit Crooks’ rifle stock and fragged his face/neck/right shoulder area from the stock breaking up. The SWAT operator who took this shot was a total badass; when he had sighted the shooter Crooks as a mostly obscured by foliage moving target on the AGR rooftop, he immediately left his assigned post and ran towards the threat, running to a clear shot position directly into the line of fire while Crooks was firing 8 rounds. On his own, this ESU SWAT operator took a very hard shot, one shot. He stopped Crooks and importantly, I believe the shot damaged the buffer tube on Crooks’AR. I won’t be certain of this until I can examine Crooks’ rifle, but I’m 99% sure, based upon reliable eye-witness ESU tactical officers who observed Crooks’ rifle before the FBI harvested it as evidence. This means that if his AR buffer tube was damaged, Crooks’ rifle wouldn’t fire after his 8th shot.
    https://clayhiggins.house.gov/wp-co.../Preliminary-Investigative-Report-8.12.24.pdf

    Then, the body of Crooks gets cremated without the coroner's permission :

    • My effort to examine Crooks’ body on Monday, August 5, caused quite a stir and revealed a disturbing fact… the FBI released the body for cremation 10 days after J13. On J23, Crooks was gone. Nobody knew this until Monday, August 5, including the County Coroner, law enforcement, Sheriff, etc. Yes, Butler County Coroner technically had legal authority over the body, but I spoke with the Coroner, and he would have never released Crooks’ body to the family for cremation or burial without specific permission from the FBI. • The coroner’s report and autopsy report are both “late.” As of Monday, August 5, they were a week late. The problem with me not being able to examine the actual body is that I won’t know 100% if the coroner’s report and the autopsy report are accurate. We will actually never know. Yes, we’ll get the reports and pictures, etc, but I will not ever be able to say with certainty that those reports and pictures are accurate according to my own examination of the body. Again, similar to releasing the crime scene and scrubbing crime scene biological evidence... this action by the FBI can only be described by any reasonable man as an obstruction to any following investigative effort. Please note, Mr. Chairman, that on J23, the day that Crooks was cremated, both the Homeland Security Committee and the Oversight Committee had begun House Committee jurisdictional investigation into J13, and Speaker Johnson had already stated that he was forming an Official Congressional investigative body. Why, then, by what measure, would the FBI release his body to the family for cremation? This pattern of investigative scorched earth by the FBI is quite troubling.

    Oh, and they still have issues with protecting Trump. Susan Crabtree is all over it. Breastfeeding on watch.

    Thanks for posting. There will never be a full, accurate report on how the Biden administration allowed, facilitated this assassination attempt on their political opponent. This is third-world government MO by the leftie cabal “running” the Biden ad.

    you seriously think they employed some teenage outcast to take a shot? really? wow, I hope you find your way out of that hole you are in, it isn't healthy to be that disconnected from reality, scary actually, as it leads to personal justifications for bad acts
