Multiple bystanders, police, and the Secret Service all saw Crooks as he strolled to the warehouse, even caught on film wandering around and looking up—but nope, no red flags there.

(video of his wandering and looking)

One of the law enforcement officers stationed in the warehouse saw Crooks “scoping out” the roof with a rangefinder. There’s nothing suspicious about that, right? Maybe Crooks was using the rangefinder to improve his golf swing. He left and then returned with a backpack, the officer took a picture of him and radioed the sightings to the command center, but they somehow “lost track” of him. According to the Senate briefing on the assassination attempt, 62 minutes elapsed between the time Crooks was photographed as suspicious and when he fired the shots…

When they finally “found” Crooks, he had climbed the warehouse roof. Remember, according to the Secret Service, a three-man counter-sniper team is set up in that same warehouse. Everyone knows you can hear a squirrel on a metal roof, but the team below Crooks couldn't hear him on the roof.

Evidently, a police officer saw him on the roof and confronted him, but Crooks pointed his weapon, causing the officer to duck and fall off the roof. The officer’s radio call about "an individual on the roof with a weapon" apparently didn’t warrant immediate evacuation of President Trump. Because, of course, why would it?

Of course, local law enforcement body cameras cannot confirm these facts because … are you ready for this? … According to Tom Fitton, the Butler County sheriffs were not wearing body cameras. How strange is it that a key law enforcement agency did not have its responding officers equipped with body cameras? Nothing to worry about here… we’re sure this is just a coincidence.

And the roof? Secret Service director Kimberly Cheatle later explained the lack of a sniper team on the roof by saying it was “sloped” and dangerous.

Clearly, the Secret Service isn't trained for such perilous conditions as a mildly sloped roof. Who needs them taking a bullet for the President when they could slip on a roof, right? And who needs the pesky facts that the Secret Service was already stationed on a roof with a 14.04° pitch, and the pitch of the warehouse roof was only 4.76°? And we just learned that, according to Senator Josh Hawley on X, “Whistleblowers tell me that MOST of Trump’s security detail working the event last Saturday were not even Secret Service. DHS assigned unprepared and inexperienced personnel.” Maybe that’s why she feared putting them on a sloped roof…

According to Matt Wallace, the parents of Crooks called police hours before the shooting to report that he was missing with an AR-15. And let's not forget that Crooks wasn’t even good enough to make his high school rifle team. But, hey, no biggie. It’s totally understandable, right? Because obviously, shooting in a high school competition is way more intense than sneaking onto a roof, evading the Secret Service and police, and taking a shot at the President with snipers all around. Yeah, right. Because, you know, nothing says “elite assassin” like failing to qualify for a high school team. ...

Oh, here’s a real gem. The Secret Service claims there was a counter-sniper team stationed in a second-story window of the very warehouse where Crooks was supposedly perched. Minor hiccup, though … That warehouse doesn’t even have a second-story window. But guess what? The adjacent building does, giving them a perfect view of Crooks. ...

That’s not the only report of a possible second shooter. Here’s a video that sure does look and sound like there was a second shooter in the crowd. Keep in mind that this video is on Trump's left side, whereas the warehouse is on Trump’s right side.

https://x.com/I_Am_JohnCullen/status/1813332383262998882

And here’s a video of a female attendee who heard the shots in the above video and is 100% sure that they came from the left of Trump.

Why have we not heard anything about this? It seems evident that more investigation is needed. But apparently, the FBI disagrees because, within 24 hours, FBI investigators stated that Crooks acted alone. Isn’t it amazing that they can do a thorough background check and speak to every known associate of Crooks within a day and conclude that he acted alone? The FBI sure does act fast! ...

Back to the FBI. Here is a photo of the FBI cleaning up (destroying) the crime scene where the shooter allegedly opened fire to assassinate President Trump and was quickly shot by a Secret Service sniper. Of course, the FBI may have gotten all the blood and fibers (and brass?) they needed for their investigation, so this might be nothing ….

What about that lady sitting behind Trump in the black hat? We’ve all seen the video. It went viral because when the shooting started, she stayed calm and began to film. There's nothing strange about that, right? Some are speculating that this woman is FBI Assistant Director Janeen Diguiseppi. ...

Anyone recall the Hunter Biden laptop circus? Just weeks before the 2020 election, the FBI had the laptop in their possession but decided to play hide-and-seek with it so it wouldn't damage the Biden campaign. Because, you know, transparency is overrated.

Yep, this is the same FBI that helped rig the 2020 election. The very same FBI that orchestrated the Oklahoma City bombing (and let’s not forget Merrick Garland was the judge on that one). And, of course, it's the same FBI that executed Randy Weaver’s wife and unborn child at Ruby Ridge.

Oh yeah, we almost forgot, the FBI just declined a request by Congress for FBI Director Christopher Wray to testify next week about the attempted assassination of President Trump. I guess he’s too busy…

There were multiple videos of Crooks on the roof allegedly firing, so why is there no video of the muzzle flash from Crooks’ AR-15? Where’s the brass from the roof? And what caliber is the bullet that hit Trump? The trajectory should lead straight to the bullet, shouldn’t it? Where are the ballistics reports? This is imperative information. Where is it?

All these anomalies are very odd, but perhaps the oddest is the financial “bets” placed the day before the Trump rally. On July 12th, Austin Private Wealth, LLC made a massive bet against Trump’s business empire by shorting 12,000,000 Trump Media & Technology Group Corp (DJT) shares.

Here’s the critical data from Fintel.io, revealing that on July 12th, Austin Private Wealth, LLC filed a substantial ‘put option’ position for 12 million shares of DJT. For those who might not be familiar with stock market jargon, “put options” allow you to profit if the stock's value drops. If Trump had been shot and killed the following day, this enormous put position would have resulted in a significant windfall of profits.

Not suspicious enough? Well, on the very same day, they also took out ‘put options’ on 34,000,000 shares of Rumble (RUM). The following day, there was an attempt on Trump’s life. Had Trump been killed, both DJT and Rumble would have crashed, potentially raking in hundreds of millions in profit for Austin Private Wealth. Does this mean that they had prior knowledge? Or was this just a coincidence? You tell me. Why is nobody asking questions? Where is the SEC investigation? ...

And let’s not forget that President Trump has promised multiple times to dismantle the so-called “deep state.” It certainly appears that this shadowy network could be involved in the attempt on his life. The timing and circumstances surrounding the assassination attempt are just too coincidental, raising serious questions about whether this was a desperate move by the “deep state” to protect its own interests and maintain its grip on power.

Is that all? How come you don't present real evidence?

Of course, there's that little thing about Trump becoming the anointed candidate at the RNC, meaning that he can legally talk with foreign powers now as a potential President. You think that is something the Deep State wanted?

I think Kimberly Cheatle basically surrendered to Trump which is why she seemingly audaciously went to the RNC. She threw herself at mercy to turn State's evidence. Watch to see if she is suicided.

LOL! And now, something completely different. So, the sniper team in the building under the fake patsy sniper drew straws to see who got to kill Trump through the window.

This is 100% the right thing to do. It is more than justified because it's about leftists advocating murder as a way to defeat democracy.

It’s really despicable I didn’t cheer for Obama to die, I wouldn’t cheer if Biden was killed. I’d view the assasination of any president or final candidate as an embarrassment and sad day for the US.

I'm perfectly fine with Biden stroking out today however.

This Reuters headline was already remarkable but it still managed to bury the lede:

US Secret Service says it previously denied Trump
requests for additional resources, New York Times
reports
By Reuters
July 20, 2024

I will now repost the *entire* Reuters article about this massive scandal that should, in sane world, rock the federal government to its core. You ready? Here it is, the whole thing:

July 20 (Reuters) - The U.S. it Secret Service said it had turned down requests from Donald Trump's security
detail for additional resources in the two years leading up to his attempted assassination last week, the New
York Times reported on Saturday, citing a spokesman.
This is a reversal from earlier statements by the agency denying that such requests for the former president
and Republican presidential nominee had been rebuffed, the newspaper said.

That’s it! That’s the entire article. Not a single reaction quote from anybody. Nor any details, nothing about who said what, not even a snarky comment saying reporters tried to get a comment from anyone.

This is what passes for journalism in the age of corporate media.

The headline should have been something more like, “Secret Service LIED About Denying Trump More Protection.” Instead, the crack journalists at Reuters deployed the gentle euphemism, “this is a reversal from earlier statements by the agency.” ...

The New York Times’s article was a bit better. The Times, at least, reported the previous strong denials that, in Secretary Mayorkas’s own words, were “irresponsible” and “unequivocally false:”

"There's an untrue assertion that a member of the former
president's team requested additional resources and that those
were rebuffed," Anthony a Guglielmi, a spokesman for the Secret
Service, said last Sunday, the day after the shooting.
Alejandro N. Mayorkas, the secretary of the Department of
Homeland Security, which oversees the Secret Service, said on
Monday that the accusation that he had issued the denials y
baseless and irresponsible statement and it is one that is
unequivocally false."

But yesterday, under pressure, Secret Service Spokesman Guglielmi admitted that the “baseless” claims were not, after all, quite so baseless, nor were they exactly “irresponsible.” As it happens, President Trump has requested more security the entire time he’s been out of office...

Finally, to its credit, the Times article recapped the three biggest unanswered questions hanging over the rally field:

... The agency also faced questions as to why it had allowed Mr.
Trump to take the stage at the Butler Farm Show grounds, even
after receiving information that law enforcement was looking for
someone suspicious in the crowd.

So many questions! And so few answers.

Yesterday, video emerged of President Trump asking a delicate question of his own in an interview with Fox’s Jesse Waters: why didn’t the Secret Service simply ask him to hold off starting the rally for a few minutes until they could find Thomas Crooks?

https://x.com/CollinRugg/status/1814841241982673364

“Nobody said there was a problem,” the President explained, “and I would've waited for 15 minutes, 20 minutes. I think that was a mistake.”

Whatvl does July 13th and January 6th have in common?

The only people that died at either event were Trump supporters.

Reuters is not Fox, CNN or Cucker. They had this subdued style of reporting forever. The guy who demands that they use capitalized "LIED" in a title and snarky comments in the body of their articles is either obtuse or was born yesterday. Or both.

https://x.com/amuse/status/1815048772990202348

Rumors are that this was an ATF agent.

That all very soon will be categorized as conspiracy theory like everything before. No evidence, baseless.

The Goebbels reversal version is that somehow Trump 'needed' this for his public image publicity campaign. Trump never 'needed' this, he was doing fine without it, and it runs counter to the extremes he has gone to to avoid civil war. That and the Globalist effort to profit with insider information on the assassination are signatories that it was a genuine assassination project. All the standard Deep State and Globalist finger prints are on it.

I even think a lot of the Mockingbird assets were appraised given their very strange and fearful reaction when Trump lived instead of died, plus their awkward poverty of strategy reactions immediately after the attempt.

You can sue any agency. You just have to have the money to do so since it's baked into their annual budget to defend themselves. I'd guess the SS has a $50M legal budget. Just because it's budgeted, doesn't mean they spend it. But they have more money they can spend than most civilians.

It's complicated, but I can try to explain it more in a future comment. We just did our budget this month for our board. It's no different for the Fed. You can budget more than what you'll likely spend. If you go over you can't spend the money on it. So you fluff the budget assuming something could go wrong and you'll need X more in one line item.

It's why we get federal government shutdown threats every year basically at this point. It overly complicated and I honestly don't even fully understand and I'm the treasurer for my board.

Breaking News: Secret Service never showed up for the 9am site meeting on July 13 the morning of the Rally and as I suggested, now confirmed, Secret Service and the local police were on different radio channels so the Secret Service never received the radio call of gunman on the roof.

Interesting ballistic analysis showing that a Trump 'on purpose' staged ear shot would have been impossible. Also shows that patsy's head would have been well nigh exploded in mists and bits, he wouldn't have been recognizable, which is probably why they have been scrubbing that first fake closeup of 'dead patsy' from the web.

A surgeon familiar with gunshots also stated that patsy's head would have had significant blood and tissue spray (though not in this vid).

I've come up with a few possible suspects:

https://jameshowardkunstler.substack.com/p/only-half-gone

Hillary, you see is buttering up the cloacal vent of the party so that she can wriggle up there and eat its brain, like one of those parasitical wasp larvae that get into a caterpillar. ...

The attempted rub-out at Butler, PA, (Mr. Barnes theorizes) was a NeverTrumper / blob / neo-con joint operation that was supposed to work as follows: Nikki Haley and Mike Pompeo, Deep Staters both, are on the outs with a GOP solidifying around Mr. Trump. Before the Milwaukee GOP Convention opens, they are chatting-up delegates in preparation for a kind of coup. The Butler, PA, op is timed before any nomination can occur. It’s (obviously) intended to eliminate the former president for once and for all and make sure there’s no veep candidate to step into his shoes. The blob then blames the Trump assassination on Iran, instantly conjuring up a fresh new war to distract the nation. The GOP Convention nominates war goddess Nikki for president and Pompeo for veep. The DC war party carries on in triumph. Fait accompli.

Notice, Mr. Barnes says, that CNN and other news networks that usually avoid broadcasting Trump rallies, are actually covering the Butler, PA, event live. They want all of America to see Donald Trump’s head explode like a Crenshaw melon on TV — sending the message: this is what happens to anyone who challenges the blob.

But the blob got just the opposite. Now they look DIE-infested, incompetent, and weak.

Who visited Thomas Crooks’ home before he attempted to assassinate President Trump?

Mobile ad data analysis reveals someone who regularly visited Crooks’ Pennsylvania home also visited a building in DC near an FBI office.

The Oversight Project identified nine devices linked to AD-IDs that were located at Crooks’ home and work within the last year.

Per the Heritage Foundation’s Oversight Project: “We found the assassin’s connections through our in-depth analysis of mobile ad data to track movements of Crooks and his associates”

“To do this, we tracked devices that regularly visited both Crooks’s home and place of work and followed them,” the Oversight Project said.
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/07/mobile-data-reveals-someone-who-regularly-visited-thomas/

They were able to exclude the parents and Crooks phone based on their regular travel to jobs and the Comm Coll.

Come on, does anyone really think they would be this "sloppy"? Much more likely on purpose.

Nothing but more rabbit hole.
