Live updates: Trump assassination attempt congressional hearing

CNN  

Former President Donald Trump is rushed offstage by U.S. Secret Service agents after being grazed by a bullet during a rally on July 13 in Butler, Pennsylvania. Anna Moneymaker/Getty Images More than two weeks after Donald Trump survived an assassination attempt, federal investigators are still trying to uncover the motive of the former president’s would-be assassin. The agent said that during the first half of this year, Crooks made “six chemical precursor-related purchases online of materials used to create the explosive devices recovered in the subject’s vehicle and home.” Crooks used foreign-based encrypted email accounts to purchase firearm components, chemicals and other explosive components, investigators told reporters on Monday. In text messages obtained by Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley from the Beaver County Emergency Unit, 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. According to the messages, which were first reported by The New York Times, local law enforcement later took a picture of the same man, who turned out to be the shooter, and sent it to other officers in a group chat nearly 30 minutes before Crooks would shoot at Trump at the Butler, Pennsylvania, rally.
