2024-07-18 14:24:32 UTC - MISINFORMED_OR_POTENTIALLY_MISLEADING
Post massively misrepresents the facts. The shooter bought a ladder and rifle scope prior to the event. He was initially flagged by Secret Service because he was carrying a rangefinder. A tool used for sniping & hunting at long distances. He was not chased by police. https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/us-news/trump-shooter-thomas-crooks-seen-33268975 https://www.cnn.com/2024/07/15/us/thomas-crooks-trump-rally-shooting-invs/index.html

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/1813935447531245747
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.
