Representative Clay Higgins is a member of the congressional investigative task force looking into the assassination attempt by Thomas Matthew Crooks against President Trump. Rep Higgins was also doing independent research prior to his appointment to the congressional committee, and he released his preliminary report findings today [SEE HERE pdf].
There are some remarkable revelations in the 6-page pdf. One detail outlines how it was a Butler County SWAT officer who fired the initial shot that stopped Matthew Crooks after 8 shots fired. The Feds did not initially stop the assassin, the locals did. Another detail highlights how the Butler County coroner was not aware the FBI quickly released the body of Crooks for immediate cremation.
♦ […] “The 9th shot fired on J13 was from a Butler SWAT operator from the ground about 100 yards away from the AGR building. Shot 9 hit Crooks’ rifle stock and fragged his face/neck/right shoulder area from the stock breaking up. The SWAT operator who took this shot was a total badass; when he had sighted the shooter Crooks as a mostly obscured by foliage moving target on the AGR rooftop, he immediately left his assigned post and ran towards the threat, running to a clear shot position directly into the line of fire while Crooks was firing 8 rounds. On his own, this ESU SWAT operator took a very hard shot, one shot. He stopped Crooks and importantly, I believe the shot damaged the buffer tube on Crooks’ AR. I won’t be certain of this until I can examine Crooks’ rifle, but I’m 99% sure based upon reliable eye-witness ESU tactical officers who observed Crooks’ rifle before the FBI harvested it as evidence. This means that if his AR buffer tube was damaged, Crooks’ rifle wouldn’t fire after his 8th shot.” [Clay Higgins Report, pdf – page 4]
Good luck examining that rifle that will have already been destroyed.
Is that Clay Higgins writing saying He went to examine the body himself?
yeah
I looked it up he’s not a coroner, but he’s military and a cop so it’s not like a civilian trying to make sense of a dead body….
So ... they just shot at him.... and then the FBI helped by burning the body before the people could see if was actually the
patsyguy the government said it was...nothing to see here.... these aren't the droids you are looking for... move along.
The FBI did not burn the body.
They did not make the decision for Crooks to be cremated
Absent is the explanation regarding the first three shots that do not have an echo signature on the audio spectrum analyzer. Sounds dont behave like that….if all of the shots were from the same weapon at the same location… then the audio signature would indicate that.
All the more reason to destroy the body, and host down the evidence.
A suppressed weapon wouldn't have that loud "crack" echo effect and we saw Crook's weapon wasn't suppressed.
I know exactly what you're talking about, but all the videos I've seen on it were audio only. I do wonder if whoever was filming turned their camera in another direction or something... I did see some other videos where the shots all sounded the same (and saw the actual video, and the camera didn't turn away)
But the FBI and USSS are definitely hiding things, there is no doubt in my mind they were involved or somehow facilitated this.
I saw some footage that DEFINITELY had suppressed shots.
The 8 shots have a very similar audio signature.
The differences can be explained by some as simple as Crooks moving. Perhaps to a less prone position.
The idea that another gun firing from a different location would sound almost like the crooks' shots doesn't withstand scrutiny
Just stop
IMO the SS was setting out to get the deed done. Crooks was just the patsy. Donald Trump fought the SS close team and got up and pumped his fist to show us all he was alright because if they loaded him onto that stretcher and hauled him away, he never would have come out alive. He would have died of his " injuries " enroute I'm sure. I'm sure they had a doc of some sort all set up to destroy or cosmetically create any evidence they wanted to his corpse. Just my opinion.
That is logical. Agree
because if they loaded him onto that stretcher
What on earth are you talking about
Trump said SS were insisting that they wheel him out on a stretcher, he refused, stood up and pumped his fist.
OK I didn't know he said this
I think he's just exaggerating though. I just watched the video again there's no stretcher.anywhere near Trump.
An nobody thought he was hot in the abdomen. He grabbed his ear everyone saw it
did you not hear how they were trying to get a stretcher to put him on to evacuate him? and he was refusing it because he realized he was not that badly injured?
I thought we knew that. Those snipers were POLICE, not SS.
The issue was confusing because certain USSS teams wear vests/armor that say "POLICE" on them. "Secret Service" or "USSS" is also usually printed on there somewhere but I think it is on the front. If it is printed on the back, the words "SECRET SERVICE" are smaller than "POLICE".

Yes, shades of Scalia.
Agree. And I'm astounded nothing ever came of the investigation of his untimely death.
That last sentence is sarcasm right? :)
Lol. He was murdered... yet the public perception he 'died in his sleep'.
I find it baffling that so many people are 'OK' with not having folks held accountable. I'm still astounded that nothing came of the organized Smollet event.
They held the barbecue, what? 2 or 3 days later? Nothing to see here….
You would be fun to have a beer and talk politics with. Agree!
Ditto!
The 10th shot was from across the rally where the other local counter sniper was positioned on top of the West grandstand roof. Also not USSS.
Any information on who was on the water tower?
I don't have the source but the water tower supposedly had been cleared by a drone. I don't think there was anyone up there.
On a side note, I'm thinking there's another reason Trump is quiet on the conspiracy front regarding his shooting.
The second he starts getting conspiratorial in his speaking, the left will have the green light to push the "Trump wasn't really shot." narrative. It's perfect cover, "Well he's pushing conspiracy theories about the shooting too so it's the same thing!" and Trump doesn't want to give them that cover.

Does Clay Higgins have an email tipline (for the assasination) like Ron Johnson did?
This has been known for a little bit.
