… olds can’t afford gas, let alone an assassins kit and expensive tech accessories.

Finally, an adult Picture of one of the Trump Shooters.

[TheViewFromLadyLake] The way in which they portray anyone is subject to the whims - and agendas - of the editors and photo editors, especially when they need to skew a message to their ideals.

This fresh/pimpled face kid is not the man who shot DJT.

This is the guy - not a kid - who pulled the trigger.
That’s Mr. Thomas Matthew Crooks, age 20 and proud community college graduate with an associate degree in engineering, gamer, who is probably schizophrenic or seriously bipolar — the Daily Mail articles had that blurry one, but the third one at the link and shown here is new.

#6  Overseas bank accounts? From previous reports, the 3 accounts sounded like encrypted Telegram chat accounts. Not at all the same thing as banking.

Encrypted overseas bank accounts has a nice scary sound, but on-line banking uses encryption, especially when the traffic goes through gawd knows whose servers.

tl;dr: I am curious whether "bank accounts" is
1) a newly discovered detail
2) just media chaff to confuse the situation.
3) someone's misapprehension of facts

Side note: it is interesting to watch the shooter's public image to evolve from innocent goofy high school kid to something more sinister and current. Just like little Trayvon Martin!

#5  the reports I read said "foreign accounts", with the implication from context that they were media accounts - this is the first I heard about them being bank accounts and considering the source, the 3 day year rule is in effect.

When will the video, that even the SS & FBI admitted existed, be released? Or they need more time to AI generate one?


How much were in the $$ accounts and the source will tell a lot in itself.
