Is that the open window from where a second possible assassin was suppose to have fired some shots?

Quote:Another factor, according to these sources within the Secret Service community, was that the agency was relying heavily on supplemental special agents (not Trump’s regular team of special agents) and local law enforcement because many special agents in Trump’s regular protective detail were overburdened and needed to take time off after working several consecutive seven-day weeks.

RCP has also learned that there may have been only one regular special agent detailee on site the day of the rally. The rest are from the Candidate Nominee Operation Section, or CNOS, “temps” in Secret Service shorthand. First instituted in 1998, the CNOS teams comprise special agents from 142 field offices and operate on 21-day rotational assignments. When they complete their rotations, they return to their field offices.

This is not unusual for a former president to experience, but the threats against Trump, the only former president in modern political history to run again and one who has faced prosecutions and comparisons to Hitler from Democrats, are obviously greater than most ex-commanders in chief whose profiles have tended to decline after leaving public office.

When Cheatle was asked if Crooks was a lone gunman, she said ‘I can’t answer that’. Apparently, most of congress is now convinced there were more than one.

But really, I never expected the political 'show' to come up with answers... only 'political performance art.'  The questioning was angry and relatively pointless... as if she was going to admit to any wrongdoing on national television.  Regardless of what her antagonists come up with, the pardon is likely already being drafted.

I think this is so, because as of a few years ago, the manning of the political appointee positions in this country were 'orchestrated' to subtly change how 'law' is applied.  Simultaneously, the media embarked on a campaign (either of their own design or someone else's) to vilify former President Trump (and all those associated as 'supporters') so thoroughly, with such relentless rapidity, as to render him/them into the very image of a poster child for all their hateful imaginings and quite often, ranting.  This might mean that even those who are entrusted to secure their persons are probably of a bent perception... and they are likely 'glorified' by any disdain for the 'orange man'.

But in the end, what was witnessed, experienced, and recorded cannot be erased from the public... so the next best thing, for them, would be to openly vilify any questions about the event, the same way they vilified talk of COVID discrepancies online... (it usually starts with the mainstream media ranting about "disinformation." - watch for it.)

More potential places to shoot from?  Suddenly, despite recording evidence the sound of gunfire is 'ambiguous?'  There are too many people out there who openly celebrated the attempt, and loudly lamented that he lived.  This is a bad sign.  The 20 year-old shooter was now a criminal mastermind?  The Secret Service, too overworked and badly managed to do one of the most important security functions ever... really?  Finger pointing at the leadership of the unit is going to "solve" the case?

Granted, we here suffer from a vacuum of certifiable facts, but even so, can it really be that the people who are "the best" at solving crime are so hopelessly confused that they are going to throw there hands up and give up?  All the establishment can do is muddy the water... and they have already begun in earnest.

Umm maybe just me but doesn't that mean they were all there at the same time? Or am I missing something here? And which of he multiple groups was this one comprised of?
