A bombshell congressional report has revealed that would-be Trump assassin Thomas Matthew Crooks was not killed by a Secret Service sniper, as the official FBI narrative claims.
The FBI claims that the Secret Service neutralized Crooks just seconds after he opened fire from the roof of the American Glass building at the rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.
According to the bombshell congressional report, Crooks was not stopped by the Secret Service, instead being incapacitated by a previously unheralded local SWAT operator.
Two months after Crooks shot the former president's ear at the rally, a preliminary report from Rep. Clay Higgins offered a differing narrative to the official one pushed by the FBI. MailOnline report: While it was initially claimed that Crooks was shot in the head within seconds by a Secret Service sniper, Higgins' report claimed it was actually a local SWAT operator who stopped the gunman's hail of bullets.
He drew parallels between the agencies' official narrative of the shooting - that Crooks was quickly killed by a Secret Service sniper - and Higgins' claim that a local SWAT operator actually hit the gunman first.
Higgins said the SWAT operator - who he described as a 'total badass' in his report - fired at Crooks from the ground around 100 yards from the AGR building where he had been perched.
Seconds later, a Secret Service sniper killed Crooks on the rooftop perch, which 'entered somewhere around the left mouth area and exited the right ear area.
