“According to multiple sources, a law enforcement officer had also previously seen Crooks on the ground and called him in as a suspicious person with a picture prior to 5:45 p.m. Our sources tell us an officer checked the grounds for Crooks at that point, but did not see him where the first picture was taken. 26 minutes after the second picture of Crooks was taken by law enforcement and the information called in, shots were fired from the roof of the American Glass Research building. Seconds later, a Secret Service sniper returned fire” https://www.wpxi.com/news/local/alleged-trump-shooter-spotted-by-law-enforcement-nearly-30-minutes-before-shots-fired-sources-say/Q6GIK5RP6RBY5PHIMYBNXRTEBI/ Attached File |

He's not an idiot, he's very successfully following the agenda and sneering at those who point out what they think are failures, because he knows what they don't. He's there to open the border, not secure it, and he knows that he can completely ignore Congress and nothing will happen. Judged by that metric he's doing an amazing job. Put another way, when you're doing the bidding of those who really pull the strings you don't have to respect those that don't. IMHO |

In an honorable society, at least those that had colossal fuckups would do the deed themselves, at least saving their family from the shame of being a fuckup. Even if our country comes to a complete standstill, if/when Trump is elected, his only course of action is to immediately remove every SES on down to supervisory GS/GG14's. The GS/GG-14's can re-apply under proper scrutiny, but all the leadership from every agency needs to be removed on Day 1. You don't have to be corrupt or evil to be dangerous; incompetence with no accountability is just as dangerous. ROCK6 |

The operations plan had them stationed inside the building looking out windows toward the Trump rally. The information about the three snipers being inside the building was first reported by BeaverCountian.com. One of the snipers inside saw Thomas Matthew Crooks outside and looking up at the roof, observing the building and disappearing, a local law enforcement officer tells CBS News. Crooks came back, sat down and looked at his phone. At that point, one of the snipers took a picture of him. Crooks took out a rangefinder and the sniper radioed to the command post. Crooks disappeared again and then came back a third time with a backpack. The snipers called in with information that he had a backpack and said he was walking towards the back of the building. Officers believe that Crooks might have used an air conditioning unit to get on top of the roof. By the time other officers came for backup, he had climbed on top of the building and was positioned above and behind the snipers inside the building, the officer said. Two other officers who heard the sniper's call tried to get onto the roof. State police started rushing to the scene, but by that time, a Secret Service sniper had already killed Crooks, the officer said.

I've watched enough episodes of seconds from disaster to believe that this could honestly be a simple as the holes lining up. Plenty of tragedies come down to 10 cent bolts and paperwork errors but watching it play out in real time is a heck of a thing. I also would be totally unsurprised if it comes out someone widened the holes just enough to help. |

The white House is lying, they were deficient of resources. 2. The protection plan was deficient 3. the deficient protection plan was then additionally poorly executed. He's saying it was a clusterfuck without explicitly telling us exactly what happened. The counter argument to "it wasn't a inside job" is that it wasn't a inside job by those that were on the ground there that day. The inside job part happened all the way at part 1. To go back to swiss cheese analogy that's used in incident analysis - what made this a inside job is the white house has been making sure that trump has been given the slices with the most holes in the hope they would line up like they damn near did Saturday. View Quote Probably beaten, but without playing catchup then backtracking again... I agree with those three points with one exception: #1 is the inside job began the moment that democrats called for political violence against Trump. They've been setting this table for almost a decade now. Republicans would be wise to continue smearing them with this every time unity or violence are brought up. Plaster the images of those traitorous fucks and ther quotes inciting political violence everywhere. Make sure every American voter sees and hears it daily between now and the election. |

Been trying to keep up with the thread. Does anyone have a legit list of what gear/ weapons and accessories the shooter was using?

View Quote Ehh, having worked in facilities like that, "nutrition specialist" isn't a ringing endorsement. The job is follow orders from a nutritionist/cook and make sure the residents get food. Most of the people working in that position in every home ive ever seen are 16-17 year old high school kids. The smarter and motivated ones go get a CNA certificate, mame more money and do difficult work (and can get some college paid for too if they stay in that career field...) That said, he may have done great with old folks because they weren't judgmental towards him and actually appreciated him. |
