You dont call the police on your 20 year old kid, who isnt home for a few hours, unless you know something

[ll__]

Everything about this is extremely suspicious

I don’t care what side of the aisle you are on…. Every day this story gets weirder and weirder. If this was a movie, I would be complaining how unrealistic it is. 🤯

Who calls the Police on their nice 20 year old son because he hasn’t been home for two or three hours? Something is not right.

[randominsights]

20 yr old with no social media footprint…but 2 cellphones?

[jaysonj]

Wouldn't there be an audio record of that call? You know as there is for every call in America that's made to police? Why hasn't that audio recording already been released? So that we can hear it. Oh, right, never mind.

Why? What did he know? How much cleanup did the parents do before the police showed up?

[DavidManvell]

Okay the headline is about the shooter's father calling the police and then there's nothing in the reporting about it

I send out my prayers for the family members who Lost their loved ones

Father calling the police is odd...because his son called off from work.. and wasn't missing.

Those 20 mins costed the life of the firefighter

[Jacklee-qhcv]

That call would be recorded and available to the public if it actually happened...

Senator Hawley has said this morning that the SS knew for 62 minutes before the shooting. 🤦🏻‍♀️

[lfinn]

There’s a letter. Where’s the perps letter?

[victorwest]

The Secret Service saw him on the roof 20min. before shooting and did nothing about it ??? How is that possible? He wasn't seen as a threat ??

[John-sd]

Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) said on X that according to new whistleblowers, "MOST of Trump's security detail working the event last Saturday were not even Secret Service, " and were instead "drawn from the department's Homeland Security Investigations (HSI).

There was absolutely nothing in this video that's says the father called police before the assassination attempt. Quit the bogus lies just to get views... Scammers.

[marijorichards]

All I have to add is Wow. What an alarming sequence of events. Prayers to everyone involved.

[muddogtracker]

Another story change.

Not sure if it's version 6 or
In six days ..

[Ed-tykr]

I'm seriously beginning to wonder what people within the government know about Trump, that we don't.
