Then I think his apparent clockface angle to target could have been “11oclock” reducing to 10oclock if he’d stepped north, and back to 12oclock if he’d stepped south
Are you claiming that Crooks fired shots 4,5,6,7,8, but not 1,2,3?
or have I misunderstood that line?
He says the word “gas” 5 times:
gas emit
gas coming
gas emit
gas station
gas station
Would we expect for him to have seen empty brass shells ejecting from the Panther AR15’s ‘starboard’ side, and could the lawyer have asked if Zaliponi saw those brass shells ejecting?
And here’s a graph showing the times between shots. I’ll guess 2.810 seconds between the times of Shots3 and Shot4.
Right. I haven’t thought Crooks did the first three shots since I saw Chris Martenson do his first podcast where he made the case that shots 1-3 were from someone else.
I now think it’s more likely that Crooks took shots 4-8 after reading Zaliponi’s testimony than I did a few days ago, but I’m not rock solid convinced.
One big problem I have with Crooks taking shots 4-8 is the question of where shots 4, 5, 7 and 8 wound up. If you look downward from Crooks’ position aiming as close to Mr. Trump as possible (keeping in mind he’s down on the ground at that point), if you miss the people in the left hand bleachers, you are going to hit the stage, the lectern or someone in the right hand bleachers. It would be hard to imagine all the other shots flying so high that they miss everything, and it’s not like there were lots of holes in the right hand bleachers.
I’m sure I saw Chris’s 1st video, but will have to find it and re-watch. I made a screenshot with the times of supersonic crack to sonic thump Chris found for the 10 shots he heard, but can’t find the screenshot yet.
I always thought the 5 shots were aimed at the nearest crowd, and not at the podium, and that he easily could have hit bodies in the bodypile, if he’d wanted more casualties.
Sean Davis, on Tucker Carlson in February, claimed “those 5 were all way up high”…maybe Sean talked to witnesses.
I also thought that 5 shots in 0.78 seconds must be ‘professional’ speed, but I’ve never fired an AR15.
Your theory of another shooter for Shots 1,2,3 is fine with me, because my immovable object is the line from Trump’s ear to Copenhaver’s upper left arm.
And no one is allowed to say it!
Cullen said it, 20 July: “that shot that hit the President’s ear…hit the man in the black pants and the white shirt”. Cullen said (that man) ‘took one in the hip’, but fingers flipping up and hitting shirt fabric gave that impression.
And Copenhaver’s recording suggests a line throught Trump’s ear, to the building, that may not end, North, with the ‘dead body’ roof spot.
One question I DO have about Sgt. Zaliponi’s testimony is that he was waiting to get a shot on the lower part of Crook’s head.
p. 33
[This is after Zaliponi has taken his shot]
“So he’s starting to recover. Now I’m up about the forehead, about the eyes, nose. I’m like, “All right, come on, come on, come on, come on.” I’m just – I’m standing. I’m not on anything. I’m in the middle of the field waiting, waiting, waiting. That’s about roughly ten seconds after I engaged.
That’s whenever I hear the crack of the Secret Service sniper rifle go off next to me, because they were up – they were just up – right up – so where I was standing, I had a team on Building 16, which is our building. I had two guys up on top of the Building 16 and then two buildings down behind the stage was the second team.
I originally thought it was the team to my right, so if I’m – I’m on him, Crooks drops, and then I wait a couple seconds. He did not recover, so I made a handoff signal. I yelled up to the Secret Service guy.”
Why in the world is he waiting to see the lower half of Crooks’ face? What’s wrong with a good shot right in the middle of the forehead? Especially when any tenth of a second delay means the punk can take another shot?
I wonder why he would think Hercules 2 can see Crooks. He walked out to his location from the same the barn. You would think he noticed the tree in between the barn and the eastern half of AGR 6, since he probably had a partly obscured view of AGR 6 himself until he got a little ways west.
Why would a seemingly competent sniper like Zaliponi think he got a “mortal” shot on Crooks? He didn’t see where he hit him, just that he got a hit somewhere that either injured or rattled him.
Beyond that, why not just bounce shots off of the roof into the body?
(if he could see the body on roof panels, from the “11oclock”)
or bounce shots off the roof’s ridge cap, in front of his face, if not able to see the body…
We might have had a living defendent, for questioning.
(maybe he thought he’d be in trouble for roof damage)
I am totally disgusted with President Trump for the first time after getting on the “Trump Train” last year. All this work spent trying to figure out what happened, and he’s going to tell us - “They were abnormal people”.
It looks like there will be no more inquiries into conspiracies in either attempt.
I do appreciate a lot of what he is doing (especially DOGE), but I REALLY hate the mushroom treatment - my life was seriously impacted by being on the receiving end of the mushroom treatment (i.e. “kept in the dark and covered with shit”).
I bet Mr. Comperatore’s family and the two injured men will get LARGE sums of money in exchange for not suing, and thus having no discovery process. Fuck 'em, Fuck 'em all. (Not the victims, of course.)
I hope President Trump gets some hideous rash that itches and oozes, for the next four years. And yes, that is a reference to Job of the Bible.
I hope he gets other chronic medical conditions - including one that keeps him from golfing. And that Mar-A-Lago gets destroyed by a hurricane or fire.
But yes, I know he’s a lot better than the alternative. By orders of magnitude.
For the shots at 127, 132, and 138 seconds after ear shot, my impression is that those 3 were hundreds of meters north of the parking lot, and of the Water Tower.
No, because the free subtitle maker allows only 1 minute, so I cut it from original footage by VLC. It wasn’t easy, the recorder uses 4 or 5 second long chunks.
ffmpeg doesn’t work on my notebook.
Oh, it was failed to post due to some error:
Calendar age, biological, intellectual and emotional development are different things.
The DNA is the same in all your cells. I asked biologists: what makes then the body parts to differ - like liver and lungs. They say: there are active and inactive sequences. But that information is not inside of DNA - then what?
(When you cannot explain something, give a name to it - and you have already explained it. This is how it works.)
There is the “invisible hand” again. There are thousands of proteins, most of them are inhibitors. Imagine a big Markov-machine. Proteins control the creation of other proteins, and the living body cell specialization is just emergent.
I think the drone might be that toy. Reverse engineering can upload flight paths to it.
I recorded it with simple screen recorder(no audio) but stopped the recording during the FBI interview, and restarted recording about the 34:20 mark, for less than 2 minutes, then chopped it again with ffmpeg to give 20 seconds, that produced 614 frames, and I think that the ‘red thing’ is only in one frame, 405:
In my language we called it tube mouth brake. I’m not familiar with fluid flow science and no clue how the recoil can be reduced by that. (Fluid means both liquid and gas - somathing that can flow.)
I also don’t understand how the flash can be reduced by it. (I would use some gyroscopic stabilizer.)
The official narrative: the shooter died and thus his accountability no longer exists. I’m not sure if compensation lawsuit is possible against a deceased person. Perhaps his car (or other properties) might be confiscated.
We have no hard evidence of other shooters. However, a lot of law enforcement officers carried guns around. Some of them gone away - to the hospital. Each weapons should have been tested. Maybe there are test to show a gun was used few hours before.
This is about the wind call. First they said it was a windy day. We also saw the big flag twisted. But at the moment of shooting there was almost no wind, and it was toward rather south. So it is weird how Trump’s right ear was snicked.
We don’t know either what happened to the lady if this photo.
Mmm, we see Collins retrieving his rifle from the backseat of his cruiser but that’s directly at the end of the shots fired. Perhaps this is an overlap of multiple shadows or like a shadow puppet, where a shadow can be made to look like something else. Hmm… Did the trooper on the picnic table have a pistol or a rifle?
I remember you posting pictures of the lady laying down with a red cap. i thought i had identified her and where she was sat in the bleachers behind trump podium. Sorry, i got that one wrong. I think the lady is in the crowd maybe in front of the media.
The other lady i beleive was shot. In the same video, she was carried all the way to the white tent, where Corey was taken. Then disposed off, and never seen again. According to John Cullan twitter feed, he claims this woman was in the crowd about halfway between the media and Trump podium.
