You have to scroll down to the 9:40 update to see the article. I pasted text below
https://www.cbsnews.com/live-updates/trump-shooting-statement-joe-biden-updates/

quote:

Three snipers were stationed inside building used in Trump assassination attempt There were three snipers stationed inside the building the shooter used during Saturday's shooting of former President Donald Trump, a local law enforcement officer with direct knowledge of the incident tells CBS News. The operations plan had them stationed inside the building looking out windows toward the Trump rally. The information about the three snipers being inside the building was first reported by BeaverCountian.com. One of the snipers inside saw Thomas Matthew Crooks outside and looking up at the roof, observing the building and disappearing, a local law enforcement officer tells CBS News. Crooks came back, sat down and looked at his phone. At that point, one of the snipers took a picture of him. Crooks took out a rangefinder and the sniper radioed to the command post. Crooks disappeared again and then came back a third time with a backpack. The snipers called in with information that he had a backpack and said he was walking towards the back of the building. Officers believe that Crooks might have used an air conditioning unit to get on top of the roof. By the time other officers came for backup, he had climbed on top of the building and was positioned above and behind the snipers inside the building, the officer said. Two other officers who heard the sniper's call tried to get onto the roof. State police started rushing to the scene, but by that time, a Secret Service sniper had already killed Crooks, the officer said.

What next? I’m either living in an alternate universe or taking mushrooms and I’m scared and need a blanky. I’m going to bed before this gets even weirder.

They're not sending their best, apparently.

This was the headline when I clicked that link just now:

These people are deranged. We all know the motive.

It says to man the windows. (Which they obviously failed at considering they saw a guy scoping out the roof with a backpack and a rangefinder RIGHT outside those windows, yet did nothing. Didn’t even keep the president off the the stage.)

Let's say I believe what is posted here vs the most likely scenario of "The USSS fricked security harder than Riley Reid"

quote:

Crooks came back, sat down and looked at his phone.

quote:

Crooks took out a rangefinder


So somebody is talking to this ****. Great, I hope when the FBI unlocks his phone, they don't suddenly have a massive hard drive corruption.

How do you fricking miss the rifle?

All of that going on and not one person thinks to keep Trump off stage until it’s handle. He should have never been anywhere near that stage.

But during all of this time, civilians on the ground were watching him belly crawl, yelling, and reportedly telling police. The police report of what happened doesn’t make sense.

The snipers chilling in the building were supposed to be on the roof, apparently in the same area he shot from.

Those snipers need some intense questioning. They left their post, he used their vantage point. Very bizarre.

Help me understand why there are 3 snipers inside of a single story building and not in an elevated position, perhaps like where the shooter was on the roof of said building

Based on what's been going on for the past year, I won't even raise an eyebrow if this were true.

It was too hot on the roof so they decided to ride it out inside.

It’s either an inside job or they’re inept

Take your pick
