New York Times: Text messages from law enforcement show concerns were raised more than 90 minutes before Trump rally shooting

Text messages between law enforcement before the assassination attempt against Donald Trump earlier this month suggest that some officers raised the shooter’s presence at the rally more than 90 minutes before he climbed onto a roof and fired eight rounds at the former president.

In text messages obtained by Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley of Iowa and reported by The New York Times on Sunday, a local countersniper first raised with his colleagues that he saw someone park near their vehicles and sit on a nearby picnic table at 4:26 p.m.
