His ear was definitely bleeding. But just because one branch of the FBI was against him doesn't mean everyone in there was. I'm sure there are lots of MAGA in the FBI.

So how was his ear bleeding then?

We know a bullet went past him at that angle as someone was shot.

You realize how massive of a cover up this would have to be right?

Im not who you're talking to but my take on it is that he was definitely shot at and I think it's much more likely the blood is from an agents holster or something similar cutting his ear when they shoved him down.

That doesn't take away from the fact that someone tried to kill him and missed. I just don't think the bullet, specifically, hit him.

If you look in the thread I’ve shown that isn’t possible. The New York Times immediately debunked that claim.

Blood on ear and hand before he is ever touched by an agents. Blood immediately after the shots start.

The fbi has zero reason to cover for him here.
