All right, we'll get you caught up on what is trending this morning with the dirty on the 30. What's happening? Well, I actually have some breaking news right now in the wake of Saturday's assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump. We're learning that the shooter, 20-year-old Thomas Crooks of Pennsylvania, purchased 50 rounds of ammunition just hours before that shooting. We're also learning the Secret Service did not sweep the roof where he opened fire at the former President's. Take a look at what happened. So they're admitting that they did not. Yeah, these new developments are being reported by CNN and they come as the Secret Service faces mounting questions over how this young man managed to get just 130 yards from where the former president was speaking in Butler, Pennsylvania. And we've been claiming he clips all morning from multiple witnesses who were there who were Trump supporters that said they warned law enforcement that they saw a gunman crawling on the roof of this building. But unfortunately, nobody responded before he started shooting in a post on his truth social, the former president expressing support for the other victims, writing, "We pray for the recovery of those who were wounded and hold in our hearts the memory of the citizen who was so horribly killed." Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro said he spoke with the widow of Corey Combratory, the man who lost his life at that rally, and he said he died a hero. Corey was a girl dead. Corey was a firefighter. Corey went to church every Sunday. Corey loved his community. And most especially Corey loved his family. Corey was an avid supporter of the former president and was so excited to be there last night with him in the community. I asked Corey's wife if it would be okay for me to share that we spoke. She said yes. She also asked that I share with all of you the Corey died a hero. The Corey dove on his family to protect them last night at this rally. Corey was the very best of us. May his memory be a blessing. Have you guys seen? And I know there's been so much stuff on TV and the radio and the internet about this. Have you seen the photo of the act like you can see Trump in the photo speaking, his head turned and the bullet whizzing towards his ear? Yeah. Have you seen this? It was taken by New York Times photographer Doug Mills. Listen to that. I was part of that small pool that sits right up in the buffer zone which is just feet from and sometimes just inches from the podium and then he gestured to his right, looked over and all of a sudden the shots rang out and it was pop, pop, pop and I was like oh my gosh and so as I looked up I kept taking pictures at the same time and then when I saw him fall behind the podium I thought oh dear God he's been shot. By the time in those split seconds he was already covered and surrounded by members of the Secret Service who were blanketing him. I couldn't see him and I'm thinking is he okay? What's happened to him? And then they were lifting the former president up to his feet and I thought oh God he's alive. Thank God. And then as he came closer and closer to us I could see the blood on his ear and I was like oh my gosh he's been shot in the ear. And then as he was you know there was that moment where he was very defiant and then literally the next second the look on his face was this complete shock and you know just looking out at what all the crowd is out there and he's seeing everybody scattering everywhere. So it was you know it was just a horrific moment. I was sending my pictures from my Sony camera back to the New York Times and then it dawned on me it was like oh my gosh I think I was taking pictures while he was you know while this whole thing happened. So I called one of my editors and she said you actually have an image of the bullet passing behind his head and I was I got chills I was completely stunned. At the the picture that they keep showing of President Trump walking off and had the flag in the background that photographer they said why were you not ducking when you were hearing the gunshots go off and he said because still photographers have the moment that they need to catch and I guess this guy had been in Afghanistan at when the war was fully going on and he said that his instincts went back to that moment of being there and a pool of photography pool with military at the time. Crazy.
