FBI doing a presser.

Saying NOTHING.

Did say Secret Service wasn’t available for presser.

“I just can’t place much faith in the Biden DoJ’s ability to conduct an investigation on the matter, or more precisely to conduct it and then communicate the results honestly.”

Why would they?

Not like they are under pressure to do so.

[Antoninus]

Guy looks like a classic 90 IQ patsy.

[RummyChick]

A posted a pic of this exact guy taken from above. Someone knew pretty fast it was him and was leaking the info

[lightman]

Pennsylvania Ping!

Please ping me with articles of interest.

FReepmail me to be added to the list.

[Governor Dinwiddie]

Oh, they are saying something. They are congratulating each other on a job well done. Seriously. They are holding a presser and lauding each other.

Manifesto?

If too sensitive, copyrighted, thus not subject to release -- if the right judge is in charge.

Obviously still living in mama’s basement.

[RummyChick]

Also the pic I posted taken from above had the same color shirt.

[BEJ]

That’s very funny.

[jonatron]

Why Crooks fired on the presumptive Republican presidential nominee is unclear.

The last decade of leftist incitement in the media, comprising half the alleged shooter's life must have played some role.

[Morgana]

Well I was wondering if the shooter was trans.

Looks like I was close. He’s a girly man

[TTFlyer]

Leftist Incel.

[Texas Fossil]

Congress will be calling for a full examination, Not by the FIB.

Your lack of confidence in the FBI and DOJ is well founded.

[Morgana]

“Was that she/he/it “transitionng”?”

I asked that question tonight when this all went down.

[inchworm]

Is there an Antifa connection? Looks the part.

[SteveH]

a “lone nut”?
