[GatewayPundit] Who visited Thomas Crooks’

…in our archives as Thomas Matthew Crooks, age 20 and proud community college graduate with an associate degree in engineering, gamer, who is probably schizophrenic or seriously bipolar

home before he attempted to assassinate President Trump?

Mobile ad data analysis reveals someone who regularly visited Crooks’ Pennsylvania home also visited a building in DC near an FBI office.

The Oversight Project identified nine devices linked to AD-IDs that were located at Crooks’ home and work within the last year.

Per the Heritage Foundation’s Oversight Project: “We found the assassin’s connections through our in-depth analysis of mobile ad data to track movements of Crooks and his associates”

“To do this, we tracked devices that regularly visited both Crooks’s home and place of work and followed them,” the Oversight Project said.

Someone who regularly visited Crooks home and work also visited a building in Washington, DC located in Gallery Place.

“This is in the same vicinity of an FBI office on June 26, 2023,” the Oversight Project said.

For those that are tracking this type of data, we identified devices that were located at Crook’s home and his work within the past year.

There were at least 9 devices linked to these AD-IDs

We are willing to cooperate with legitimate investigations and share further…

… information.

For the protection of whistleblowers and our investigation, we will not be sharing further information with the congressional task force due to the connective tissue between that entity and FBI, USSS, and other entities.

If you have any further information, leads, or tips, please e-mail us directly at tips.oversightproject@heritage.org

The "Official" word.

He acted alone.
So, don't be looking at the Men behind the curtain.

#2 Just a couple of points:

This story might lead one to suspect Crooks was involved with personal meets (PM's). Security camera footage should be exploited.

Yesterday's testimony by the Secret Service Director was evasive and deceptive. Much more investigatory work must be done with this person.

#6 The 'foreign accounts' misinformation...

John Solomon, Rep. Ralph Norman dish on breaking news Trump gunman had Michigan school shooter's photo, foreign encrypted apps

..."used three encrypted communications apps ostensibly tied to Germany, Brussels and New Zealand"

Possibly simply gaming servers supporting team voice and text channels.

#7 I watched the grilling of the Sevret Service director. It was painfully obvious she was not going to answer any questions. She was absolutely covering up. By the way, Fakebook said this picture is fake.

#8 three encrypted communications apps

No mention of the names of said apps? A bit suspicious. I'm going with gaming servers like Skid said.

However, it must be noted that in-game chat can be a nice way to have a private conversation.

#9 ^^^^
From the DNI's own site:

"Terrorists have used online gaming spaces to recruit, train, network,communicate, and spread terrorist messaging. Terrorist online gaming usage has included:
• Designing and producing video games that promote violent extremist narratives.
• Modifying (or “modding”) existing video games to twist the narrative into a violent extremist message or fantasy.
• Using in-game chat functions to communicate with ideologically like-minded individuals and potential recruits.
• Using gaming-adjacent platforms to convene like-minded individuals, socialize them to violent ideologies, and incite or mobilize them to violence.
• Using gaming references in messaging to normalize terrorist violence, terrorist symbols, or other violent extremist narratives, particularly among young audiences.
• Engaging in “gamification”—the use of gaming motivational techniques to encourage violence in nongaming contexts.

The online global gaming environment combines interactive gameplay with real-time conversations, creating individual and community relationships
among users that might not otherwise exist outside these platforms, often in anonymous settings. This environment may provide opportunities to access
terrorist or terrorist-related content through online gaming platforms and gaming-adjacent platforms like chat, resharing, or livestreaming features, particularly for juveniles who may be susceptible to extremist messaging."

#10 Massively multiplayer online role-playing game

Social interaction in MMORPGs

"MMORPGs function as communication platforms not unlike social media. As such, the CIA expressed worries about the use of MMORPGs as a secret communications channel for terrorists. On February 15, 2008, the office of the Director of National Intelligence provided Congress with the Data Mining Report. In this report the existence of the so-called Reynard Project was disclosed."

#11 From #4

“Does the Secret Service have recorded communications from the July 13th event?” Fry asked.

“We do not have radio communications from that day,” Cheatle said.

Interesting wording.
Was it not recorded? or
All recording are (officially) deleted?

You know. The more this level of incompetence, if you will, happens the more I think the picture of dude wearing a lady's neck decoration is real.

*depending upon the MMORP, there is a lot a person could do in addition to just chat.
