BREAKING - PunchBowl is reporting: Senate briefing on Trump rally shooting just concluded. Top lines, per 2 senators on the call:
—The shooter visited the rally site a few days in advance to scope it out —62 mins elapsed between the time the shooter was photographed as being suspicious and when he fired the shots —20 mins elapsed between the time he was spotted by snipers & when he fired the shots —FBI Director Wray said there’s no known foreign nexus but no established motive as of now. Shooter used encrypted comms and had little to no social media presence
They're unloading a barrel of red herrings.
Who is “they”?
Probably because they knew:
1. He was disturbed and potentially dangerous.
2. One of their rifles, an AR-15, was missing.
I will not be surprised to find out that their call to police regarding their missing son hours before the assassination attempt included the fact that he was armed with a rifle.
No one calls the police about their 20 year old son being missing for a few hours unless they know something horrible is about to happen. A 12 year old, maybe. A 20 year old man, no.
The Discord peeps.
That’s it? big nothing burger.
I read somewhere else that Rep Barrasso called this a total CYA briefing. My prediction: Like the Afghanistan fustercluck, nobody will get fired by the Administration.
Did the shooter get an event VIP pass from Mayorkis and Cheatle?
If the shooter used “encrypted coms”, who was he communicating with? Names!
A 20 year old kid who can't get a substantive job is more capable that James Bond.
I think the kid called them just before he got to the building...They have a picture of the phone on the roof and they have accessed it.
I use Protonmail so what, Feebs?
"You brute! You brute! You brute!"
“There is NO way that a 20 yr Told does not have any social media, facebook, twitter, instagram, tiktok..20 yr olds are GLUED to their cell phones, it is impossible that this turd did.”
I have kids and they’re in their twenties and they are getting off of social media 100%. They are having kids and they want no photos of their kids online. So, it’s not unreasonable to think that this creep didn’t have an online presence. I’m seeing more and more of it in that age group.
The lack of social media presence could indicate this kid was socially isolated, which is consistent with prior killers of famous people in his age bracket.
That said, yes, the “investigation” is a crock so Far. The government acts like they want us to think they have things to cover up, or maybe they want to attract our attention from something else.
[Grassley] was only allowed to ask pre selected questions, a total waste of time
Relax folks. We’ll be able to ask far more probing questions as they develop more creative responses.
I find this to be disturbing and unacceptable on its face. Is there more?
Does this mean that are ADMITTING that they ALLOWED this to happen????
What am I missing here?
Only one legitimate reason exists why they would not be releasing the obvious details/information, and that is if it was suspected another person/persons are involved.
Smells really bad. Like they’re hiding something.
You’re missing nothing. This is insane. They’re feeding the public a load of bull shit.
They apparently had twenty minutes to remove President Trump from the stage...
It should have taken five seconds.
