NY Times Tipped Off Shooter to GOP Practice Field Around Time He Moved to Area

Jim Hoft Jun 14th, 2017 7:41 pm 464 Comments

Republican Representative Steve Scalise, the House Majority Whip, and two Capitol Police were shot during baseball practice on Wednesday morning.

Scalise was shot in the hip and tried to drag himself off the field after he was shot.

The shooter, James T. Hodgkinson was a Bernie supporter who was obsessed with Trump-Russia conspiracy theories. He is now dead.

The New York Times tipped off the GOP shooter on the GOP baseball practice field in an April article.

I’m not sure what this has to do with the scenario if the ball field shooter had been a Trump supporter shooting at Democrats.

Instead of repeating this, I’ll just copy and paste what I posted on another article regarding your comment.

It’s my understanding this guy was down and out and near broke, so it would seem a natural place for him to stay would be a midnight mission or YMCA. Even the mayor of Alexandria said he regularly saw him at the YMCA. As we know, the YMCA directly across the street from the ball field.

My point is, Hodgekinson could have easily heard about these congressional ball games which were held directly across the street from the YMCA. Did those who work at and live at the YMCA inform him in passing conversation? Did he discover they played there himself?

Was it happenstance he ended up at the YMCA? Or did Hodgekinson gleen the NYT article months earlier while in Illinois? I have no idea.

Did they find this NYT article in his room at the YMCA or on his laptop? I dunno.

Lets put it this way, if they obtain his laptop, and or phone, they will likely be able to determine if he ever linked to that NYT article from his devices.
