Congressman Clay Higgins (R-Louisiana) travelled to the PA farm show site. He recently (Aug. 15, 2024) released a report he wrote for the chair of the committee he's on.

Link to BBC article on MSN, that had me google the report itself.

I read the BBC report--and the Higgins report itself-- and found the following to be interesting.
The US Secret Service did not retrieve the radios that were set aside for them by Butler County tactical command. That's suspicious in many ways.
The 9th shot fired on July 13 was from a Butler SWAT operator from the ground, about 100 yards away from the AGR building. This shot hit Crooks pew pew stock (I don't want to use the g-word, as I try to follow the rules very carefully on this fine forum). The pew pew stock broke up fragments grazed Crooks' face/neck/right shoulder.
The FBI released the body for cremation 10 days after July 13, so July 23.
Along with the cremation, the GOP Congressman is upset with the FBI because:
1) The FBI cleaned up the biological evidence from the crime scene.
2) The FBI released the crime scene itself after 3 days.
The GOP Congressman alleges that the FBI was obstructing the investigation.
The FBI claps back at Higgins' suggestion that FBI was obstructing:

The secret service not picking up the radios was a huge mistake.
Had the secret service picked up the radios, as they were reminded to do, they would have heard the chatter about a guy on a roof running. They could have swept that Russian asset off the stage before shots rang out.
But then, the puppet would not have gotten his picture taken.
Communication failed, which was not the fault of the locals. Bad communication, no local radios, and spotty cell service foiled attempts to stop the shooter.
Not in the report, but body cam footage of the cop--who hoisted himself onto the roof before Crooks fired bullets from his pew pew--had the cop swearing. The cop was swearing something like I told them to put snipers back here when I met with the SS on Tuesday. I told them so. Paraphrased.
The secret service said they would put snipers there, but oops, the secret service didnt put anybody on the roof.
P.S. I hate how the GOP/fascists are calling it J13. They are doing this on purpose, to deflect from J6 insurrection. In his report, Higgins doesn't note any of the August dates as A15 or A12. But he does NOT write out J12, J23, etc.
