He identified himself in a missive sent to family members moments before the attack as a “friendly federal assassin” and railed against Trump administration policies. He booked a hotel room at the Washington Hilton weeks in advance, then traveled by train from his home outside Los Angeles to Chicago and then to D.C.

And as he stormed the security perimeter at the White House correspondents’ dinner Saturday, exchanging gunfire with Secret Service agents, the 31-year-old suspected shooter aimed to target top officials, including possibly the president himself, law enforcement officials said.

Those details about the man involved in the shooting that forced the evacuation of President Donald Trump and several members of his cabinet from the ritzy annual event emerged Sunday as investigators on two coasts worked to gather information on the suspected gunman and what motivated his attack.

Did he mention the blue state fraud? Hospices? Day Care fraud? Mail in ballots?

What's more disturbing from what I read, he wasn't some socially detached lunatik with delusions.

He comes across as reasonable and intelligent, other than he has swallowed the propaganda 100%. In his mind, he's made a reasonable decision with expected consequences.
That's scary.

No. Only the important stuff like orange man bad. That other stuff doesn't matter.

No they won’t because ticket prices would skyrocket to pay for the security.

Repeating the steps of the Lincoln assassin, I see.... geeze, what a moron.

This kid was nothing but a fraud. I only wish they could have ended his life, as nothing valuable will come out of his trial, other than the 'brain-washing' of another impressionist youth.

History should reflect and study what these people have become. I wish we could weaponize it, for use elsewhere.

Has anyone mentioned that it's the same hotel Reagan was shot at.

I've done many events there, and took smoke breaks right next to the Reagan shooting spot.

Tried to inform 4dummies of that when she claimed no one had ever gotten that close to shooting a president there... then she started spouting off about Lincoln or something.
