Trump shooter's ominous request to his boss before assassination attempt revealed.. Three Hours before shooting - Crooks Triggered Metal Detector - and they let him in anyway!
Daily Mail ^ | 7/17/24 | Dominic Yeatman

It emerged on Tuesday that the killer penetrated the security area of the rally a full three hours before carrying out his attack, after driving the 50 miles north from his home in Bethel Park on the southern outskirts of Pittsburgh.

At 3pm he triggered a metal detector as he tried to gain access to the site, and was found to be carrying a rangefinder – a gun sight typically used by hunters and marksmen preparing to shoot at distance.

But security officers allowed him in while keeping an eye on him until he left the secure area a short time later, the official said.

He then fell off the radar until shortly before 5.45pm when an officer with the Beaver County Police Department saw him acting suspiciously near the outer perimeter and took a photograph.

Reports are stating that earlier that day, he bought a 5-foot ladder and 50 rounds of ammunition, insinuating that is the ladder he brought to the venue.

This is part of the FBI's "limited hangout" strategy. They will continue sprinkle truths and falsehoods to the public in order to mislead and distract us. The story of Crooks purchasing a five-foot ladder from Home Depot on the morning of the shooting has been one of the more far-fetched concoctions from the FBI so far.

Crooks didn't carry a 12-foot ladder through a metal detector, nor did he strap that ladder on the roof of his Hyundai Sonata. The ladder was ready for the shooter when he arrived at the building and it was the last thing he needed to prepare or think about.

Good one.

Heard Dahmer offering to sublet his old apartment. Even had a roommate as part of the deal. Some assembly required.

great Jesse mentioned Jill Biden’s “hastily” arranged trip to Pittsburgh at exact same time as Trump’s rally, but wish he added that it was her third visit to Pittsburgh this summer.

someone needs to track down people at the Italian dinner and ask them when they first heard she was coming. the WH only announced she was going on 10 July.

also, to clear up the ladder story, which is wasting so much time, why not track down Gary Smith, who gave the most detailed description of the “shooter” going up the building to the blind BBC report, Gary O’Donoghue?

even better, if the place wasn’t still a crime scene, surely someone could go their with Smith and get him to repeat his description, this time with the camera focused on the spots he speaks about, for example when he says he was near a tree and the police/SS were around him. and the “barn” where he said the SS were, and how they could see him, etc etc.

if it were not Trump, but someone favored by the FakeMSM, all this would alreadt be done, even if it’s still designated a crime scene.

I’m glad I’m not the only one that is fixated on the ladder issue. The “powers that be” are muddying the waters with multiple leaks and stories about the ladder. Whether he used one, the size of the ladder, whether it was already there or brought in, etc. Solve the mystery of the ladder and you answer a lot of questions.

The Biden Regime and the SS tried to kill President Trump. I hope he spends some of his own money or campaign money on security that is beholding only to him.

100% needs to be tracked down. The rag heads did the same thing with Israeli stock market before 10/7.

Dallas Alexander said he heard the ladder had been attached to the wall.

So many people need to be rolled for this.

Thanks a ton for posting this. Jesse did a great job and this is very interesting. That Crooks’ parents are both behavioral therapists is also interesting.

simple question.

the sniper team in the shooter building claim they took photos of the shooter and forwarded them to their bosses.

how come we can’t see those pics, so people who were at the rally can see exactly how he looked on that day, instead of some odd pic from years ago.

also re the BBC interview by blind reporter, Gary O’Donoghue. why didn’t the camera pan around to where the interviewee, Gary Smith, was pointing to show the building the shooter was bear-crawling up, the tree he mentions, and the barn with SS on the roof? the camerca never moved. the one time i’ve heard any of that interview on BBC was on BBC World Service, a short excerpt, and they didn’t even credit O’Donoghue!

it reminds me of how cameras never pan the crowds at Trump’s massive rallies - and ditto for Hillary’s and Biden’s where there are virtually no people.

will it continue like this, with Biden ridiculously claiming he’s just done 22 massive rallies, overwhelming numbers of people, etc? surely Republicans can expose the truth of the numbers every time they appear in public, or is that asking too mnuch?

He started his 2016 administration to include his own existing private security.

No range finder or ladder on that list.

The ladder thing is what is the most intriguing to me—
I have heard it was a 3 to 5 foot step ladder purchased at home depot the Morning of the shooting, but have seen pictures of what appears to be a 10 foot ladder on the side of the building.
what exactly is the story with the ladder? I think this is a big clue—how could this possibly go unnoticed? NO WAY this was not a slip up IF it was a large cumbersome ladder-—too big to hide and sneak in-———
*****************************************************************************

Perhaps the 10 foot ladder is what the police used to get to the roof AFTER the shooting? Standing on top of a 5 foot step ladder would easily allow a fit young man to place his backpack and rifle on the roof and then pull himself up onto the roof.

Did he bring the rifle in before metal detection stations were put up?

I don’t think they needed 25-30 in the know on site. I think the pivot point is the communications guy between the locals and the SS. All he has to do is NOT relay info, or to give phony orders. Tell the locals he will alert SS, then not do it. Tell the locals keep an eye on him but don’t do anything.

I hope the locals had their cameras on. Maybe we can learn what they were told. Congress should start any investigation with them, not Cheatle. We know she’ll lie.
