IIRC, the gunman in the Pizzagate incident had ties to the Deep State.
The prevailing theory at the time (and which I agree with) was that he was ordered by the DS to do the shooting in an effort to discredit the Pizzagate investigation. They tried to claim that the shooter was a right wing nut who was incited to do the shooting because of all the “fake” Pizzagate conspiracy talk on the internet.
Interesting additional fact is that the police controlled camera that ALWAYS points at the Comet Ping Pong entrance was pointed away just long enough for the shooter to enter without being recorded. So that tells me that either the DS can control the camera or the cops are dirty or both. (Which is why we can’t have DS trials in DC. Everyone in the city is either DS or stupid enough to believe what the DS tells them.)
The tactic reminds me of the one they used with the birth certificate, when our dear Mr. Trump was DEMANDING to see the bc (and by the way I think Mr. Trump knew the truth even by then due to his investigation); and they pulled out that bad fake waved it around and then refused to talk about it any more.
Also puts me in the mind of the OBL assassination where they never showed the body.
