The gunman who attempted to assassinate former President Donald Trump Saturday was identified as 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks, sources told The Post.
Crooks, of Bethel Park, Pa., squeezed off shots — one of which grazed Trump in the ear — at an outdoor rally in Butler, just outside Pittsburgh.
Sources said Crooks was was planted on a roof of a manufacturing plant more than 130 yards away from the stage at Butler Farm Show grounds.

He was murdered to hide his employer. This is a coup. Plain and simple.
The only connection I care about is his connection with the FBI.
The FBI knows in advance many killings and mass murders. The Orlando gay nightclub shooting is a prime example of how the FBI sat on this until it happened.
And based on the video proofs we have seen tonight from the scene - with more to come I’m sure - it seems clear that officials watched this happen when they could have stopped it.
Nice underbite
Bingo! The kid was hired and all the parts and pieces were in place. The kid was no more than an imbecile hired to pull a two pound trigger. Good thing he was a lousy shot. 130 yards is nothing.
I'm not quite sure if I'm ready to go there yet. I did see the video of the SS sniper seeming to take his time. In truth, he could've just been trying to get a bead on the guy --who was already aimed and ready to fire on President Trump.
Sometimes what looks like a conspiracy is simply incompetence.
This much I do believe however: There's plenty of people in this country (and not all of them Democrats) who were profoundly disappointed that Crook missed.
When I first heard the news that there was an assassination attempt on Trump, I was both equally shocked, and not shocked at all.
Who is Mark Violets. (Look at the picture).
And why the the Penn State Police say they had him in custody?

Mark Violets was falsely identified early on (there's a thread here about it). Alleged to be an Antifa member. The photo that accompanied him was of some Italian sportscaster.
Totally fake news.
I ask myself - is it possible for someone to hit a target at 130 yards away when they had no previous idea there was a target to be shot? All in half a second?
I answer myself - Hell NO.
Those cops knew well in advance the shooter was there. The SS agent did not take his time. Not at all. He had already taken aim and returned fire before Trump even hit the deck. Yet in that split second that first agent did take his eye off the scope - look at the roof - then back to the scope and then fired. Pretty quick assessment I must say.
Look at the picture in my link. It’s not the Italian guy. I saw that earlier thread. this is different, looks like the same guy in the other photos. Check it out.
And again, who did they have in Custody?
I do hope very specific questions get asked about this. Why did they wait until the shooter fire until they shot him? Why was the roof not secured? And, why did they ignore multiple reports about the shooter?
Nope, back to Maxwell Yearick

It’s not crooks. Crooks just released a video saying it wasn’t him.
Buried on a hill in Terra Lingua ...
World ain’t what it seems is it Gunny.
That was Buffalo, NY
BUMP
20 year old guy. The odds are that there was a liberal girlfriend and his little head was thinking for his big head.
Here is a YouTube video of Thomas Matthew Crooks stating that he hates Republicans and he hates Trump. I can’t make out the last part, but it sounds like he says that they got the wrong guy.

Just did a search and found that the shooter’s father, also named Matthew Crooks lives at the same location. The Republican party registration they are claiming must be the father’s.
The father has the same name, same address and is 53 years old.
Good find. That is most likely the kill shot. It’s interesting watching the podium action at the same time.
