It appears possible at least one cop/agent had the suspect in their in their rifle scope crosshairs when the shots were fired at Trump.

We’ll see.

Lefties on X are claiming that he is a Republican and a gun rights activist. I'm guessing Antifa loser, but who knows how much info will be given.

Got the anime in background. Might be a troon.

Remember the shooter in think it was Brooklyn at that Supermarket talked to his FBI handler couple hours before he did the dirty deed...Bet this guy may have similar links...

They weren’t gonna let him keep shooting into the crowd.

There is someone who posted a profile of someone with shooters name that says antifascist in his profile and a different pic.

I still think it’s Maxwell Yearick. This new guy is too young and the shot guy looks to have sewed up gauges like Maxwell had. Someone’s covering their tracks.

the long blond hair matches the pic of Thomas Matthew Crooks that i posted in post 73 ...

[Sir Bangaz Cracka]

NO FBI INVESTIGATION!! Keep them away from any investigation.

[Reno89519]

Yes, same with the purported drone picture of him up on the roof. Plus the TMZ video shows enough to be a good match.

[Morgana]

That pic? I wonder if that’s his (Her?) Breck Girl pic?

Thirty years ago the Secret Service had the technology to instantly alert them when someone accessed a location from which the President could be shot.
