The faster the shutter speed on a camera the more light it needs from the lens to give you a picture; and or the ASA/ISO (film speed numbers) needs to be cranked up, it then adds "grain" to the picture.
With today's ~$6000 cameras and a F1.8 135mm $1500 on a sunny day why would you need to run at such a high speed when you could get a more clear and better picture going slower.

Assuming a shutter speed of 1/8,000 to 1/10,000 second would be needed to capture the "bullet" in the image, it's almost a certainty this photo was edited to include the projectile. Why would the photographer be maxing out the shutter speed and continuously blasting away at 30 fps or whatever the max frame rate of the camera is, on a stationary subject giving a speech?

How do you explain that connection? Maybe it was just an agent with the FBI Pre-Crimes Unit visiting Crooks....

This article is either poorly written or poorly written on purpose.


Investigators used Crooks’ home and work addresses to find cell phones that were common to both addresses, then triangulated each phone’s paths of travel. They used commercially available phone-identification numbers that are normally used to tailor advertising to the phone’s user.

According to Oversight investigators, a phone associated with Crooks’ work address at a nursing home in Bethel Park, Pennsylvania, traveled to the Gallery Place complex in downtown Washington, D.C., on June 26, 2023. The phone “pinged” seven or eight times from that location the same day.

Words matter. "Common to both addresses", Next paragraph "a nursing home" does not mean common to both addresses.

What is the timeframe and repetition for these visits?

There is a big difference between the two. People visit nursing homes and go elsewhere. If the person did indeed visit both locations, its really simple. They have all the geo location available already to more or less identify who it is. Why have they just given a random DC address that could be a bar or could be Fed offices instead of actually useful information.

There is no law preventing them from taking the drivers license photos *that they already have* and entering them into a facial recognition database.

This exists already and is publicly known that its used in this way. You can thank "real ID" for making that happen.

So discount it because of the Telephone Game? Because a go-between writer didn't quite explain it clearly enough? Not sure if that's what you're implying.

I'm not saying it's the smoking gun and I'd like more details too, but by their own admission they are reserving details, so maybe it was purposely written (or explained) that way.

One of the phones went dark the day before the rally, could be another coincidence or maybe it was a burner phone. Was it the one that can be tracked to his home, Gallery Place and Plymouth?....won't know without a map or list showing each individual device, location and timestamp. If his home location isn't part of the mix then yes it loses significance, but I think that should be obvious.

Either way it seems like it might be worthy of a further look.

It is from the Heritage Foundation, maybe it's that Project 2025 boogeyman...

Senator Chuck Grassley Releases Body Cam Video Footage from LEO and Secret Service on Roof Where Trump Assassin Was Killed​

A short background detail. Almost no one knows this, but Chuck Grassley has the best research and legislative staff in all of Washington, DC. Grassley’s guys are quick into the silos and understand how to stealth navigate through the system of compartmentalization that exists. [Every republican in the intel sphere will admit this] This video footage being retrieved and released specifically by Grassley’s team does not surprise me. Great job Team Grassley.
In this footage, release by Senator Grassley via his X-Account, you will see conversation with snipers, state police, local LEO and Secret Service. Senator Grassley communicates the following message to accompany the release:
“SENSITIVE CONTENT: July 13 Bodycam footage provides more info than Secret Service will share w America We NEED detailed answers ASAP on security failures TRANSPARENCY BRINGS ACCOUNTABILITY. Vid obtained from Beaver Co Emergency Services Unit in compliance w congressional requests.”

Ok, my earlier point was it seems they identified him by name using an illegal gun registry. Unless they knew him before he got on the roof, and are throwing an illegal database out there to distract.

With all the commercial DNA databases it take no time at all to make a match if mom or dad are in one. But I think we can all agree it probably was not his dental records

Not buying it. the slope roof didn't work and they're trying another angle.Now they are admitting incompetence as a cover.

the story now is that they did recognize the area as a threat, there was a person posted there, but it was to hot? Come on man, there were 10,000 people there in the sun, there other agents in suits in the sun , the fucking president was in the sun, but some highly trained elite secret service agent abandoned thier post because of the heat? I dont care if you had sunstroke and were collapsing, you wait until you are relieved. Who are they trying to bullshit? YOU DONT ABANDON YOUR POST EVER!! EVER!! that would be grounds for immediate dismissal and probable charges . in the military if you abandoned your post and people died because of it you could possibly face a death sentence by court Marshall. Do you think these agents weren't taught about abandoning thier posts and how serious something like that is? I cant believe that a person can even get to that level of protecting the president and think its OK to leave thier post. These agents are trained to give thier life to protect thier assest at all costs, but it was to hot? Something like that would, at the bare minimum ,cost you your job that day. Seriously, you think these people arnt trained for a bathroom break? to wait until relief arrives or shit thier pants ?

And then the head of the secret service testifys under oath, that she didnt have anyone there because the roof was sloped. she never mentions that someone had abandoned thier post which is an easy way for her to get away from that. it would have been the perfect pasty to take the fall


Just another bullshit cover story ,


Oh and once again its senator Hawley , the ""angry American"" throwing cover for the SS. Of all the people in DC I would have never thought a guy like Hawley would cover for this shit. The same guy that said communications were screwed up after the officer on the ground said they had a blanket tactical channel where everyone could here.If my name isnt Holdover they had several channels to use . the secret service does this shit for a living there are prearranged channels procedures, They come into a town meet with LE and TELL them what they doing , and howto do it, after which it is checked to be sure everyone is ready , this isnt thier first rodeo, they ve done something like 90 events this year . They have liaisons for every agency they are working with .

Agent in video states that shooter arrived on bike and sniper had pics and observed him getting off bike


NY Post:

BUTLER, Pa. — A lone bike cloaked by a tree's shade near a Pennsylvania manufacturing facility is a haunting reminder of a gunman's hail of gunfire that nearly assassinated a former president.

The shooter, Thomas Matthew Crooks, rode the bicycle to Donald Trump


's rally in Butler and ditched it before he opened fire from a roof about 150 yards from where the former president spoke to the crowd of thousands on Saturday, The New York Post reported.


Crooks left the bike behind in plain sight before he climbed to his perch and unfurled a flurry of gunshots that killed a local hero, who shielded his family, nicked Trump's ear and wounded two others.

A witness first noticed the bicycle around 5:30 p.m. on July 13 – about 42 minutes before the shooting – according to The Post. The security misstep has at least one expert believing "someone was asleep at the switch."

Representative Eli Crane Notes a Report that Assassin Thomas Crook’s House was Scrubbed Prior to Investigation​

At today’s House Homeland Security Committee hearing, Rep. Eli Crane (R-AZ) questioned the Commissioner of the Pennsylvania State Police, Christopher Paris, about a video he took of the Butler Township location of the assassination attempt against former President Trump.

Toward the end of his questioning, Representative Crane says he has received information that Thomas Crook’s house was scrubbed, cleaned and even silverware removed, prior to the investigative units arriving. Seems odd. WATCH:

Gunshot Re-Enact Shows Bloodspray and Head Pieces Absent from Butler Rally Roof Sniper Aftermath, Blood, Brains, Should be Sprayed All Over Roof (GRAPHIC)​

Photos show a very limited amount of bloodspray, brain matter, skull fragments, on the roof, if any.

Even after the body was taken away, very little pooled blood remained even though the head wound should have created a massive opening where the body's 1.2-1.5 gallons (12-15 pints) of blood should have immediately come out of, coming onto the roof of the AGR Building.

View attachment 240412
In the 16:42 video, at 12:30, the shot on the ballistic head nearly completely disintegrates the head of the target.

They really aren't that great at crime scene investigation, are they.

You can clearly see the trail of blood running down the roof.
I know the pitch of that roof shouldn't be enough to keep snipers off of it, but blood won't pool on a pitched roof.
And once the heart stops the blood usually stops coming out. Doubt you'd get all 1.5 gallons of blood out of a head-shot body unless you hung it upside down.

Going for that Pulitzer. Someone figured the anticipated action photos would be their golden ticket. Of course, they had advance notice to set up their gear and all…
