USA – The firearm recovered at the scene of the Trump assassination attempt was legally purchased by the suspect’s father, an urgent trace conducted by ATF found, according to multiple law enforcement sources.

Wisconsin Republican Party Chair Brian Schimming said there are no changes, as of now, to the Republican National Convention, which begins Monday in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.  “I don’t see a situation where there are massive changes. We haven’t heard anything yet. We haven’t been told anything that’s going to change,” Schimming said on “Upfront,” a show aired on WISN-TV, an ABC affiliate station.  “Everything I’ve heard so far is we’re still on track: vice presidential nomination on Wednesday night, of course, the presidential on Thursday,” he said.

Former classmates of the suspected shooter, 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks, of Bethel Park, Pennsylvania, described him to ABC News as a student who was “quiet” and did not have many friends. “He was somebody who came across as lonely a lot,” said Jameson Myers, who said he attended both elementary and high school with Crooks.

Myers described him as “more socially reserved” and someone who “didn’t have a ton of friends.”But he said he never heard Crooks discuss politics or, specifically, Donald Trump. “I was friends with him. He never acted, like, by any means, a political revolutionary,” Myers said. “Was a very nice, even sweet guy, from what I knew.”

Another classmate, Zoe Materkowski, said he was “just a quiet kid.” Added Jason Kohler, a classmate: “He was a loner. He would sit alone at lunch.” Classmate Robert Abraham described him as “smart” and “kind.”  (ABC news)…[+]
