“Hours go by watching the assassin and we’re supposed to believe the locals working with the SS had no communications between each other?”

I can believe it. If I recall correctly, one the causes of 9/11 was the inability of the FBI, CIA, NSA, and Military to communicate.

“We now know that one of those snipers went home early, with no explanation of why, or if the SS was notified of his leaving. The second officer left the building, but forgot his security card to get back into the building (complete incompetence), and the third officer had to leave his post on the second floor to open the door for the dumbass who left without his card to get back into the building.”

All news to me. Source?

Just proof the cops will NOT protect the people. They can’t even protect an important person they are supposed to be focused on protecting.

So this is occurred in the past yet we’re supposed to believe no one has figured it out yet?

Not buying it, no sale!

Good read, but I don’t buy it. Crookes had to assume that the roof was covered by SWAT stationed on the second floor of the adjacent building. How could not have known that all three of them had abandoned their position.

Don't be like the snipers in the building, and assume anything, especially when it comes to what Crooks knew or didn't know.

If he knew the roof he crawled up on was covered by SWAT in the building overlooking him, why did he climb up on that roof? Makes no sense to me.

Here we go again.

As prior:

They were also communicating, hence my prior comment below (as in, WHO was on scene making decisions, such as NOT routing local LEO traffic to the protective detail on stage??? One person was in charge; that person was NOT testifying before Congress):

https://freerepublic.com/focus/bloggers/4254905/posts?page=18#18

Nobody, and I mean NOBODY (even that I saw out of Hill hearings to-date) has gleaned information from what came out of the command center which was supposed to be routing communications between local LEO and USSS, including command decisions.

That’s a real problem, and ‘text messages’ just don’t cut it.

(who the hell directs counter snipers to ‘text’ anyway????!!!!)

That is exactly what I am waiting for as well.

That is the Rosetta Stone....

I think the garbage can filled with 7 empty boxes for a dozen donuts reveals what was going on. Rowe said today that the SS had a "separate" room, not inside the command center. So yes, there has not been any real information gleaned here and Rowe did not offer any information up.

There is a little voice in my head that is whispering something like this:

—Communications were disrupted by moles in the SS.
—An idiot was made SS agent in charge just for that one day and one location in order to facilitate the plot.
—The moles had a separate command post outside the regular command post.

The senior folks at SS did not know about the moles in advance but now realize they were there. SS is busy trying to cover up their stupidity.

The moles are on the run....

All speculation at this point—of course.

Now one of the leading Rumble/yt bobbleheads is demonstrating a conspiracy involving 5 different shooters.

Either DJT was truly anointed on high, a gaggle of amateurs just happened to execute a plot which failed exceedingly well or a government conspiracy has been exposed using at least 2 patsies (both of whom he asserts were killed) in conjunction with indirect assistance from USSS which facilitated their execution.

In light of the fact that USSS is under DHS, he indirectly asserts that government agents facilitated a form of coup. i.e., the federal government sought to assassinate the leading democratic candidate to succeed biden and command both the Executive & the military.

And the enemedia yawns.

I’ll repeat what I’ve stated here prior: All should make their own ‘lists’ and take action when the hammer drops, because as sure as I’m warmer than room temperature at present, desperate acts are sure to follow this fiasco.
