Not sure if this is true, but I heard that a congressman (that was in a short briefing with the FBI) reported that the shooter had at least three encrypted overseas accounts. Not sure what kind of accounts, but if true?

Who was the congressman, Ceebs?
Rep. Mike Waltz (R-Florida) on Thursday in an interview with FOX News host Jesse Watters said the shooter behind the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump had 3 encrypted overseas accounts

Interesting, Doc. I haven't been following information dribbling out about the shooter. Is there anything specific that caught your eye?

I haven't heard anything like that, but who knows? If true, I'm sure the investigators are all over that. There are a few countries that appear quite interested in destabilizing the U.S. Taking a shot at a candidate -- successful or not -- would be a good way to do that. It wouldn't much matter which one. And, if I recall correctly, the shooter's search history included looking up events for both campaigns.

by the way, the representative should resign. Leaking information like that during the course of an investigation that involves protecting the safety of candidates is unconscionable.

What is an encrypted account? Sounds like something a non-technical bullshitter like a right-wing politician would make up.

Or an old person talking about Bitcoin.

Dude dabbling in crypto:

Alarmist attention whore: There are people with encrypted offshore accounts almost certainly receiving money from foreign governments.

JD Vance and Matt Gatz: uhhhh...

Alarmist attention whore:...let me finish. Who are also liberal and part of the cabal trying to stop the greatest President of all time from getting reelected.

JD Vance and Matt Gatz: oh! For sure! Folks trying to take down Trump must be getting money from foreign interests just like weeeeeyeyyyhhyrrr .....uh weak libtards who can't win in fair elections. Landed it!

It really is. But, I have seen Republicans pull this kind of thing before.
"I have learned with what evils tyranny infects a state. For it frustrates all the virtues, robs freedom of its lofty mood, and opens a school of fawning and terror, inasmuch as it leaves matters not to the wisdom of the laws, but to the angry whim of those who are in authority.”
