How did he stuff it into a backpack, or was it already on the roof.

Why did he buy a ladder that morning, why as a ladder found if as they claim today he jumped on an ac unit and then to the roof..

This whole thing is getting curiouser and curiouser.

” inaccurate Carcano”

It depends upon what bullet is used.

.264 or .268 diameter. (the larger diameter fixes most inaccuracies)

The only company I am aware of that still makes them is PRVI Partisan in Serbia.

Read the reviews on this bullet.

I reload, my Nephew has a Carcano that my father brought back from WWII. I bought him off the shelf ammo with .264 diameter bullets, could not find brass anywhere.

It is ironic that the 6.5mm creedmoor is one of the most accurate long range bullets in use today.

There’s no doubt that he didn’t act alone. He had a phone encrypted device for a reason. My question is did the government help him or was it someone else? I’m leaning towards the government as one of his partners. The people on the other end of his encrypted calls were his FIB handlers. It wouldn’t surprise me at all if that is the case.

Push two pins and an AR comes apart into two sections called the upper and lower receivers. It literally takes more time to read this than to put the upper and lower back together again.

Yeah, not that bad considering the distractions of the crowd watching. The first video shows him getting up while laying on the roof and moving to avoid the crowd watching him apparently. The second link shows how a 2nd ss snipper team took out Crook, not the picture of the team you always see.

Did Trump’s Shooter Have Help?

Nah.

Why any bright twenty-year old public high school graduate could have planned it out.

This kid was a self-starter, he had already at his young age secured a job as a dietary aid at a nursing home.

Don’t just think he worked in the kitchen washing pots and pans, he most likely had his own desk, his own phone, and made important dietary decisions.

With this young man’s resume how could anyone think he needed help?

Don’t know, but it wasn’t Trumps normal security team with him on that day either according to Larry Johnson. They brought in a new team to replace them. You could make a new Omen movie out this mess.

[The young wannabe assassin (and bystander murderer) could have hidden himself in the compact stand of four Italian Cypress looking trees, 20’ high, right along with the 10’ ladder until he felt the coast was clear and it was time to get on the roof. The trees are about 20’ - 30’ from where the ladder was found leaning against the covered walkway between the buildings. The foliage would have easily hidden him.]


The kid was canny, with an understanding of police rules of engagement, taking care to wait until the last minute or so before shouldering the long arm. Up until then, if apprehended, he would likely, at worst, have been brought up on trespassing charges.

Many accounts don’t mention a ladder. I suspect it was leaned against the building after the kid was shot. Defies logic for cops to rely on being boosted to get to the roof if the ladder had been available earlier.

[Ben Maser, who was watching the event from just outside the security perimeter, told The Post that he reported to a police officer twice in the span of two minutes that he had seen a suspicious-looking man on the building roof. Maser, who confirmed that he is visible in the newly surfaced video clip, said he first warned the officer an estimated 30 seconds before the time period captured in the video.

The police officer “didn’t say anything” to Maser in response to either alert, he said. On the first occasion, when Maser saw the man on the roof moving forward in a crouched position, the officer looked in the direction of the building, according to Maser. On the second, when the man was lying down, Maser said that he advised the officer to move to a spot where he would be able to see the man.

“When I turned to go back to that spot is when I heard the gunshots, and then it was just chaos,” said Maser, a 41-year-old welder who lives near the event site.

Maser said he never saw a gun with the man on the roof, and no gun can be seen in the newly surfaced video.]

Another unremarked upon aspect is the rarity of long arm assassination attempts. IIRC, at the time, JFK was the first and only such attack on a president or presidential candidate. In the 80+ years since, RFK, Wallace, Ford and Reagan were all close-in, as before. So there was reason to think of JFK as a freak occurrence, a lightning strike.

Why did an investment firm in Austin TX affiliated with the Bush family short the Trump stock big time the day prior to the assassination attempt?

“Ya don’t suppose that guy with a rifle on the roof is gonna take a shot at Trump, do ya?”

“Can’t be sure, let’s wait and see what he does.”

Come on.

I mean, really, come on.

That’s an excellent analysis.

I add only that he pre-planned the whole thing, including bringing a 5 foot ladder, which is just tall enough to get from the A/C unit up to that particular roof. With every security professional saying it was beyond negligent to leave that roof unguarded, Crooks’s whole plan rested on a 1 in 1,000 chance of extreme negligence with respect to that particular roof.

Put that together with reports that someone (probably local law enforcement) was supposed to be on the roof or guarding the roof but wasn’t for some reason.

My guess: the guy who was not protecting the roof told Crooks in advance, or someone else planned to detain, stall or reroute that guy, and let Crooks know about that plan.

Possible who ever set this up gave him reason to believe he would survive and escape to enjoy a great life in a third world nation, China? Brazil? Iran? I smell a Honey Pot scam—a woman may have been his reward. His real phone is gone for sure. The kid was always going to die—he was the patsy. He may not have taken the shot and the sniper on the water tower did the deed—and shot the patsy to keep the real plot hidden.

How do you carry a rifle into the area?
Where could he have stashed it prior?
There was a ladder already propped up by the building.
Why was that roof not covered.
Why were there no patrols roaming around the buildings.
Why did the police who tried to get on the roof not try multiple times at different points?
The roof was visible to people on the ground so why did the police not shoot at the guy?
Why did the snipers hesitate? They had clear view of him for minutes.

Why is the head of DHS secretary and the director of the secret service Kimberly Cheatle not in jail for interfering in this investigation?

“According to House Speaker Mike Johnson, DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas is attempting to block Cheatle from testifying. Johnson called on Cheatle to resign during an interview with Fox News Wednesday morning.”
