Shot fired at Trump?

[Rightguide]

Who confirmed that this was an actual email?..who corroborated that this was an actual email.

Indy journalists don't deserve their trust

If you were paying attention you would have seen it questioned and testified to in the Senate hearings yesterday.

That is true for a standard, 12 gauge, 2&3/4" chambering. The more poweful, 12 gauge 3" and 12 gauge 3&1/2" chamberings can be loaded with far more or heavier projectiles.

Yep, in the 12 ga 00 buck 3 inch magnum round there are 12 pellets, not 18. Just sayin'

The email she posted was one of the subjects of the Senate hearing yesterday. The acting Director of the SS was questioned about it and testified that he personally wanted to address the complaints in the email with the agent who wrote it. If you're going to argue about it you need to familiarize yourself with the facts before jacking your jaws about something you don't understand.

So in other words, the email was leaked before the director even had a chance to respond to the allegations.

And Crabtree posted it to the public.

You posted the leak.

12 gauge, 3&1/2" shells can be loaded with 18, #00 buckshot. The recoil is a bit unpleasant, even for me.

3 1/2 inch do have 15-18 pellets

Senator Kennedy: ...shot in the ear ...

In most of these discussions there is chatter about a 2cm wound on the ear. For those who aren't masters of metric measurements a US one cent coin is 1.9cm


Now look at the timeline of collected earshots sorted by day. There is NO wound. Lies and fakery

It was probably more like a 2 cm rug burn.

A bullet that barely grazes the skin can leave a veeeeery superficial 2 cm "wound" from the friction alone.

I suspect that part of the 2 cm "wound" was a friction crease from the bullet, and a tiny portion of the 2 cm "wound" was a nick from the bullet that caused bleeding. That’s actually how it appeared to me in the original bloody-ear photo.

Regardless, Trump certainly didn’t “take a bullet” in any real sense, and he certainly didn’t get shot “through” the ear.

More flapping of ignorant gums.
Just so that idiots can understand, this a link to a page on the anatomy of the external ear:

https://elementsofmorphology.nih.gov/anatomy-ear.shtml

Judging by the videos and geometry, I would speculate that President Trump suffered a grazing wound to the Posterior surface of the Superior Crus of Antihelix. That is the meaty part of the ear that extends upwards, external of the skull. Depending on the person, there is only a few millimeters to maybe thirty millimeters separating this portion of the ear from a person's head. Keep in mind that a bullet from an AR-15 of standard chambering is only 5.56 millimeter or a bit over two-tenths of an inch in diameter. A bullet can easily graze along the skin for a few centimeters, leaving a superficial wound. The wound will bleed a lot. The wound will not be visible to any casual observer looking at photos and videos because it is on the inner surface of the ear that faces the skull.

It is indisputable that President Trump suffered only a minor wound. He would survive just fine
even without medical treatment. However; the fact remains that the bullet missed impacting his skull by at most a few centimeters. Even a grazing impact to bone from a twenty-two caliber bullet from an AR-15 rodent rifle will result in catastrophic if not lethal injury.

If you would like to dispute the severity of the injury, perhaps you can recruit one of your buddies on this forum to duplicate the wound by shooting your ear in a similar manner with a twenty-two caliber rifle from a range of some one-hundred-and-fifty yards?

I didn't perpetuate or promote the leak.

How can this group be shots fired at Trump they had one job I kid screwed it up.

Nobody said she testified to its authenticity. United States Senators had the email in hand when questioning the acting Director of the SS. He knew it was real. Calling it a leak is kind of dumb. The author sent that email to every uniformed member of the SS and it carried no security classification. It had 4.2 million views on X at the time I posted it. So, a vast promotion and republication of the email was already in progress.

Who posted it to Twitter? The author? The committee?

Got it.

The email was sent and the recipient hadn't even had a chance to respond to it before being questioned about it. It doesn't mean the author won't get an adequate response. It means it was meant as political fodder for the right.

The email was addressed to all of the uniformed officers in SS. That would be like 3200 people.

Yes, she leaked the email.

Weird.

Most organizations prohibit rank-and-file employees from accessing mass-distribution email lists.

They lock down who is able to send emails to these lists to executives, HR, and Public relations.

This is a big security breach, someone could leave the Secret Service with a hard copy of the email distribution list and sell it.

"Hey want to buy the names and email addresses of all active uniformed officers in the Secret Service?"
