The common online speculation on the "three encrypted accounts overseas" is that they are likely Binance, Kraken or similar "crypto bro" platforms (all foreign-based) that wannabe stealth warriors use for the more-advanced encryption they offer due to blockchain trading on those sites. If these accounts involved platforms that the real professionals (state actors, for example) use, I'd imagine that the IC would be in five-alarm mode and this info wouldn't be dribbled out for public consumption.
The second phone is odd, however, as this guy doesn't exactly seem like a Romeo with side-chick issues, a drug dealer or someone with a job requiring physically-segregated communications. FBI indicated that it would be interviewing the 27 contacts found there, so, we shall see.
"...according to an FBI briefing," Do we really believe these people? This is setting the stage for the Iran BS. If I were Waltz I'd have laughed in their faces and walked out of the briefing, chuckling the whole way.
I think it was Climate Change. The kid was lying there on that hot, precipitously sloping roof and the added heat from human industrial activity cooked off the round.
I quoted Will Schryver in the immediate aftermath about patsies. I don't discount some form of patsy, but I want to be careful about the nature of that scenario. That is an angle that definitely needs to be explored.
Thanks. I'll listen to the analysis later. I was struck by the reaction of the counter sniper, which I hadn't seen before. To this point I've been relying on the analysis by LJ's friend Chris Whitcomb, a former FBI HRT sniper. He had a lot to say about the sound of the shots v. the sonic booms of the bullets passing near Trump's mic. I'd like to see some input from a forensic expert on such matters. With all those shots fired, it seems like a lot of inexplicably bad shooting going on--for average shooters those shots should have been fairly easy. Also, I find it difficult to believe that any shooter besides Crooks would have been using 5.56. In which case I would expect the damage to Trump's ear to have been greater--that may be a bit speculative, but for sure no sniper with experience would have been using 5.56. For now, I'd like to see more of the counter sniper reaction. Also, the counter sniper was quick to make statements about seeing Crooks, communicating with command center, etc. Nothing about the sounds of shots.
I don't buy this conspiracy stuff and the Iranian intel. Why would Iran even think of doing anything like that knowing if proven that their future would be a possible unleashed horror on them? We re to willing to listen to the CIA and FBI on this given their long sordid track record. JFK had it right when he wanted to smash the CIA into a Zillion pieces. The CIA was never supposed to engage in Covert Activities, that according to the original legislation in 1947. All they were supposed to was collect the the Intel from the 17 Intelligence agencies we had , analyze it and report it to the NSC who by the way they are accountable to. But the Dulles Brothers got things changed with a NSC directive that allowed them to go into Covert operations, the sum total to date of Bringing down at 70 governments since about 1952.
I am not going to believe any of this Conspiracy stuff because if there had been one then there would have easily been a second shooter who would not have missed and that is a fact. They would not have depended on some 20 year old punk to do the job.
I took a look over at FR. People are asking: Accounts? What kinda accounts? Email? Don't wanna jump the gun and make this into a bigger deal than warranted.
Certainly. That narrative smells like a pre-planned part of the scheme, as I've said before. That's speculation, but that and the NYPD statement--both so quick off the mark--raises questions.
Biden and Mayorkas! Their fingerprints are all over this assassination attempt.

Indeed ;-)

" If I were Waltz I'd have laughed in their faces and walked out of the briefing"
Trust me. I you were Walz you would not have done that, because if you were Walz you'd be a tool of the Deep State/Globalist caucus.
Two words : Water tower.
I think it was Climate Change. The kid was lying there on that hot, precipitously sloping roof and the added heat from human industrial activity cooked off the round.
The state response is what gives a lot away. The response to the Boston bombings was unprecedented and massive when presumably two assets went rogue.
The assassination response was positively meagre and immediately presumed to be a solo effort.
The odd thing about the whole affair is that the shooter clearly must have known this was a suicide mission?
I want to know what was the excuse he gave for carrying a ladder.

Mark, please see Chris Martenson’s brilliant analysis on X. Multiple shooters. Definitely two, possibly 3. Audio analysis of gun fire..

A figure appeared at the top of the water tower during the gun shots. Immediately afterwards disappeared.
Thanks, I can only access links as my account has been unjustly suspended.

As I've commented previously, I regard this Iran stuff as nonsensical. I was pleased that TGP took a level headed approach.

Ukraine?
Yeah by itself means nothing. Other than maybe as an excuse for the authorities to use to clamp down on VPNs and encrypted e-mail. Seems familiar.

Absolutely. They are always very cautious, contrary to the propaganda we're fed.
