Today I learned how to make two videos play side-by-side, but did not learn how to remove the blank space that results from putting two videos side-by-side. Baby steps!

This report: https://clayhiggins.house.gov/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/Preliminary-Investigative-Report-8.12.24.pdf

Higgins says: "Crooks did not have a ladder at AGR on J13. He accessed the roof by climbing onto an air conditioning unit. I reenacted his climb with no problem."

Yeah the ladder was brought later by police. I'm not sure if that's better or worse.

Here's a puzzle: A bullet traveling at approximately 3100 ft/sec is photographed with an exposure time of 1/8000 seconds. How far does the bullet travel during the exposure? Answer: Far less than the 3/4 ft shown in the "assassination attempt" photograph. Here's another puzzle: How is it possible that a man bleeds profusely after getting shot with AR-15 high powered rifle yet he does not have a visible wound 2 weeks later, nor does anyone ask to see it. Answer: The public - especially the right - is in some sort of hypnotic trance in which all events are interpreted through the lens of the candidate's supposed martyrdom.

I was shot the exact same way. If I hadn't seen the look of another shot and then moved my head it would have been a head shot. I felt something like the wind past my ear I touched my ear and then looked at my hand I was bleeding everywhere I used my shirt to stop the bleeding. It nicked the edge of my ear leaving a "C" or crescent cut out about half way up the ear. It didn't take long for it to heal but it was bleeding like a broken nose. This was back in 2020 it hardly noticeable unless you know what and where to look. I'm told I was lucky but I read the shooters face I knew what was going to happen so I moved.

Too bad the audio is missing for the crucial segment (you know, the part where the guy would have told SS over coms that there's a gunman on the roof and get Trump the hell off the stage). Kinda reminds me of this one time when all the cameras stopped working and the guards fell asleep right before an important witness/suspect committed "suicide", before he could testify and maybe get some really important people in trouble... Gah, what was that guy's name? So many things to help straight...

TEXAS FYI

Off topic but wanted to share with anyone who doesn't live in Texas as to why TX is such a great state. In TX there is no State Income tax. What's truly great about this is that the current Governor Abbot got it set so that any future attempts to create a State Income tax, something teh Dems will absolutely do if they get power in TX, would require a constituonal amendment which would itself require 2/3rrds vote. Now that's dedication to good economic policy.

TX does have some high property taxes mainly due to the state being the popular relocation destination for those escaping Blue Hells like CA & NY, but even there the Governor has placed caps on the year over year increase as well as increased the homestead act amount and believe me it's needed as one county in TX last year saw a %140 increase in property taxes solely because the county was one of teh more popular relocation destinations.

SC - Excellent work. "We DO know that there is NO EXCUSE for Trump still being on that stage"

As we commented early on, now you know why this was a catastrophic failure in SS protocol viz sterilization and "hit the deck" protocols were never followed. So many questions Mr Mulder

Sorry, I thought this was a cat-cam article. Not interested in this nonsense. Body cams can be altered like everything else that relies on digital technology.

SS should have used cats with cams. They would have done a better job.

By mid-October, Christopher Wray will have a press conference broadcast by all major television networks. At that time he will reveal that Trump shot himself and that only the quick thinking of morbidly obese blood-sucking midget Secret Service agents kept Trump from bleeding out. Everyone involved will get medals and promotions.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again. The bullets are the hard evidence that shows where the bullets came from. Do the bullets found at the scene of shooting, including the bullet that killed Corey Comperadore match the gun of the shooter on the sloped roof?

Videos and conjecture are just that. Show me a video of the shooter actually shooting the rifle from the sloped roof.

Where is the hard physical evidence in the shootings?

Nobody....and I mean nobody...is looking into this. Where are we spent bullets? Do they match the alleged shooters weapon? That should have been the first thing.

Supposedly there were 8 casings on the roof, but I haven't actually seen pictures of them or anything.

https://humanevents.com/2024/07/23/breaking-ron-johnson-reveals-8-shell-casings-were-found-near-trump-would-be-assassins-body

Senator Ron Johnson revealed on Human Events Daily Tuesday eight shell casings were found near the body of Thomas Matthew Crooks, the 20-year-old who attempted to assassinate Donald Trump at a Pennsylvania rally on July 13.

"We have spoken to two eyewitnesses and someone else who also has knowledge from the FBI that there were eight shell casings found near the dead body," Johnson told Jack Posobiec, noting that now former United Secret Service head Kimberley Cheatle would not answer that question in a hearing on Monday.

"Eyewitnesses have confirmed, two of them, that say there were eight shell casings, and another individual said that’s what the FBI reported as well."

In a press release following his appearance on the show, Johnson wrote, "On July 22, 2024, during testimony before the House Oversight and Accountability Committee, then-Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle, refused to answer questions about the number of shell casings found near the body of would-be assassin Thomas Matthew Crooks."

I don't know what country you might have to be in to get that kind of response. Surely, not the US, starting with the need to bomb Japan to end the war. I've read more than enough historic documents that "prove" that carnage was not necessary. Don't even go to JFK assassination.

So a high school kid was allowed / (encouraged?) to climb on a roof with a M16 type rifle within 130 yards of an ex/future president while on stage, and no Fs given by the SS. Of course com issues are an obvious excuse to give them all cover. I would also question the number of shots fired and shells found near the kid, suspect more than one shooter from the audio details I have heard.

No worries, nothing to see here, move on to the coronation of the next pre-selected queen. Media falls in place literally on a dime.

I've dipped into that 'multiple shooter' rabbit hole but remain unconvinced. I still have the same thoughts I did when I saw it live -- he was aiming carefully when he had a bead on Trump. Once Trump hit the deck and Crooks could no longer see him, Crooks just started squeezing off rounds in rapid succession not really caring where they went.

Expand full comment

I'm not convinced one way or the other but that's not the same as just accepting the null hypothesis of one shooter. It's not the firing pattern but the details of the audio signal. Different spectra and echo delays on the two volleys corroborated in multiple recordings at different locations. Still possible Crooks maybe shifted position which might explain some difference in the spectra, but probably not the echo timing - that would most likely require a more significant change in position.

It's starting to look a lot like "if you create the option, someone will go for it"-speculation is the most plausible one.

Incompetence usaully follows a pattern that wouold have resulted in multiple failures in the security-cordon, not just one position - especially not an ideal one such as this; this is because incompetence works both ways. If you are incompetent (not not competent/experienced enough, that's a different thing) then that affects everything you do, and from what I can understand this was the one spot available. If that makes sense?

And an actual detailed plot would also show up as a clear pattern, not just a series on circumstantial factors.

But "create the opportunity" does have such a pattern to it that this attampted assassination shows.

Which means that not only did and does someone(s) in Trump's opposition want him dead, they are also willing and able to affect matters in such a way it can become reality - and are intelligent enough, and have self-restraint enough, to not go for the more probably succesful methods in favour of playing the odds.

After all, Trump needs to be lucky every time: the one(s) seeking his deqath only needs to get lucky once. And every failed attempt increases the odds of a succesful subsequent one.

what a fuck up. and so far the news media etc say zip. nice work

Why is there so little information about the shooter? Why was he willing to essentially commit suicide to kill Trump? He was a young man who seemed unremarkable in every way, yet he was in a BlackRock PR video a few years before.
