According to Breaking Points, text messages from local law enforcement show they were aware and tracking the shooter and knew he was carrying a rangefinder, up to 1.5hrs before he shot Trump.
Local police photographed the suspect and suggested notifying SS Snipers to "look out" and sending in someone to "check it out".
The Secret Service and those up in the chain of command appear to have ignored the warnings and their requests.

As the info keeps coming out, I keep going back and forth between 'weird conspiracy' and 'holy shit, what if they are actually just that fucking retarded?'
Like, retardation must play some part, right?
If I was in a high level position of power and wanted someone dead, I could come up with a better plan...on my own.
Like, I do think there was malice but...holy shit, they were also just really, really bad. That's the most shocking part; they really were actually incompetent.
So, there were three people in that building, one guy just fucked off randomly, then the other guy locked himself out, and the third guy goes down to let him in...right as Crooks is climbing up into what would have been their vision?
Meanwhile, the SS was denying Trump more protection, some people didn't even show up, his main team was swapped out because they were 'overworked,' and then the people that did show up didn't even go to the fucking meeting, so it sounds like comms weren't even fully set up?
It's like a conspiracy fiction...that's a comedy. If life were movie, Leslie Nielson would be the star, or something.
My understanding is this is the guy who took the picture and he went looking for Crooks. Which is why it hard to believe it to be basic retardation. They saw the kid. They made his bicycle. They knew he must be on the roof. Officers started pouring into AGR. They tried to get a view up on the roof and an officer injured himself in the process. All before he took a shot.
The kid did drone surveillance the day before. He shot at a range that the government uses. You give someone a little bit of tactical training and they can do some pretty impressive things. You can do this in a week or two. The rest of military training is all about unit endurance and special skills.
Trump dead was not the endpoint. It was most likely meant to be an initiating event. The way in which it was done was likely just as important.
I mean.. you have to have Jack Ruby ready to go before you give Oswald the order, right?
And now I'm wondering if they have any plans to defend against someone copying what drones do over trenches in Ukraine. Or are they waiting for it to happen first so that Congress has an excuse to restrict private drone ownership?
It was a DJI drone. The same type they already wanted to ban. The FBI helpfully told us they were able to "exploit" the drone to get flight information out of it after the fact.
It's worse than you think already.
Great point... a signal jammer would be the only obvious current solution. It's a problem in a war because it's like lighting a Christmas tree signals-wise, but for a political rally you're not worried about HARM missiles.
Shotguns are also an option. Or maybe an anti-drone drone.
