Just to underscore how crazy this all is, I was once prevented flying MY OWN drone off of the beach at Mar-a-Lago by USSS because my father was inside the house…

Why do I think that the next story is going to be “Trump shooter Took out full page ad in the local newspaper, announcing his intentions to assassinate Trump”

I don’t think Crooks knew the local Cop saw his feet.

It’s a self serving explanation from that idiot.

The SS knew he was on that Roof for 20 minutes before the eight shots were allowed to rip.

some sort of communication between Crooks and the actual sniper,

No comms necessary. That window looked to be open. Only about 40 - 50 feet between Crooks and the window.

Cheatle had better get out the word that she is not committing suicide over this.

Especially after meeting with Trump at the convention.

No, I don't know that she did but why else would she have been there?
It wasn't to get yelled at and chased around by virtue-signalling RINOs.

Other drones?

Well, if the govt was flying some, then this alleged drone might not have been noticed as out of place.

If no one else was flying, someone should have “Alerted” at the sight on this one.

Gee, Jill shows up in the strangest places. She was in Kyiv, Ukraine in November or December 2014, the same time Hunter was on the Burisma board…
