The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Lots of new info on Crooks

- bombs in assassins car had radio receivers turned off so could not be detonated to provide cover for crooks to escape.

-assassin used aliases and foreign encrypted accounts to make nearly three dozen online purchases for gun materials and chemical precursors from spring of 2023 thru the first half of this year.

- Crooks parents cooperating and never suspected anything

- Crooks did online searches for Trump, Biden, mass shooting events, ieds, and the attempted assassination of slovakian president earlier this year

- more that 450 interviews so far

- more than 2,100 tips investigated

Good job FBI, all that effort and information yet somehow no mention of any progress identifying how the SS F'ed up in the first place. We should just trust the FBI that they are digging into that question just as hard as they can but it is, you know, really hard to get government employees to cooperate, right? Priorities huh.

Now on to ABC America this morning with interview of the local SWAT team tasked with assisting

- we were supposed to get a face to face briefing with the SS sniper team when they arrived that morning. That briefing never happened.

- they reported that after seeing and reporting the perp to the SS prior to the incident, they never heard back from them and could only assume the command team acted on that information.
