Veteran Whose Team Holds World Record for Long-Range Sniper Shots Claims Thomas Matthew Crooks May Have Had Inside Help

Dallas Alexander, a veteran sniper whose team holds the world record for the longest confirmed sniper kill, has suggested that Thomas Matthew Crooks, the 20-year-old who attempted to assassinate former President Donald Trump at a rally on Saturday night, may have had inside help.

Alexander expressed his belief that the shooter must have had assistance from within an agency, organization, or even the government. He argued that it would be impossible for someone to get onto a rooftop with a gun during broad daylight while a president was speaking without assistance.

“I’m very familiar with the layout of these types of things and what the jobs should be. And yesterday, what happened, I have no doubt in my mind that the shooter had help from somewhere within an agency, an organization, or the government,” said Alexander

Nothing to do with what happened, though I respect their abilities.

What happened was a failure at every level and a lack of seriousness that used to be ingrained, known or instinctual.

Any local cop should have walked the grounds knowing an ex-president was going to speak there and thought, wtf is that ladder to that roof doing there?

SS should have had either their people, or if lack of, local cops standing in that roof as a visual deterrence.

Crooks was a regular at a 200yd firing range in PA.

The plotline of the 2012 Jack Reacher movie comes to mind.

Was he befriended and groomed to be a patsy/usefull idiot by someone unknown to his family and friends?

Well, give an intellectually sound better analysis of WHOM it is that assisted this punk? Genius and all.

Wray meets all the criteria and resources- and is managing the current coverup sequestering facts and videos and...phones!

So, do tell.

In effect, a Deep State assassination attempt. Had it succeeded, we would be seriously talking about a civil war breaking out right now.

You have a photo of a scoped and bipod rifle that was the killers? Or, are you speaking of the two in plain view M-2010 counterfire snipers likely .308?

All that has been heard is it was an iron site ar-”style” meaningless b.s. no caliber. Thx.

Her head of security should have known better.

Which may well have been the intent should they have succeeded.

Monday meeting: CIA, FBI, HS, & SS

“Jesus Christ, we did everything right and that little prick missed a 130-yard shot, with 8 damn shots, for god’s sake! What the hell are we going to have to do to get this job done, shot him ourselves??”

I’m with you on this, CIA op. There is no way some 20 year old nursing home employee “registered republican” gets into an elevated near perfect firing position in broad daylight and gets of 8 shots at Trump without help. Help in planning where to go, where the ladder is, where he has concealment for the counter sniper team, help in making sure the building has no security on it and the ladder is also unsecured, help make sure Trump is still on stage alone well past time he should of been surrounded by security and whisked away due to an “Observed Threat” rather than “Shots Fired”. Too many things for DEI incompetence.

A Civil War was one of the goals of the former Soviet Union. We have their declassified plans from that era.

i.e. the suspect list to cause that outcome would be quite large.....

As predicted, the FBI didn’t find any information on the shooter’s phone.

Next will be his laptop, which of course will have a blank, failed hard drive . . .
