Report on Trump sniper incident

I haven't made an entry in weeks due to health issues (my own and my older son), but just now feeling enough energy for a few.

Here is a preliminary report by the House Bipartisan Task Force on the Attempted Assassination of former President Donald Trump. It seems very thorough. I like:

"The 9th shot fired on J13 was from a Butler SWAT operator from the ground about 100 yards away from the AGR building. Shot 9 hit Crooks' rifle stock and fragged his face/neck/right shoulder area from the stock breaking up. The SWAT operator who took this shot was a total badass; when he had sighted the shooter Crooks as a mostly obscured by foliage moving target on the AGR rooftop, he immediately left his assigned post and ran towards the threat, running to a clear shot position directly into the line of fire while Crooks was firing 8 rounds. On his own, this ESU SWAT operator took a very hard shot, one shot. He stopped Crooks and importantly, I believe the shot damaged the buffer tube on Crooks' AR."

Yes, and how often do you see "was a total badass" in a Congressional report?
