The claims were made anonymously on 4chan without evidence. The gunman's rifle had no scope. Secret Service snipers do not wait for permission to shoot at a threat. Secret Service director Kim Cheatle was not on-site and could not have denied permission to shoot. https://www.techarp.com/crime/secret-service-sniper-trump/ https://apnews.com/article/fact-check-trump-shooting-secret-service-334166850448 https://www.secretservice.gov/newsroom/releases/2024/07/statement-us-secret-service-director-kimberly-cheatle

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1812994722488807657
Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
