This is very convoluted, but - A guy contacts him out of the blue saying that he was an FAA trainee ATC controller who, for some reason, was at McCord that night. - This guy, who said he was doing ATC on 305 from Seattle to Toledo, says he heard the “mark it on your shrimp boats” line and that with a grease pen he then circled where the plane was and it was near Chehalis. - Eric talks to Cliff Ammerman who said that 305 what was turned over to him at Toledo (ostensibly making this new guy the ATC handler before it was turned over to Ammerman) - Ammerman’s first actual communication with 305 was at 8:13 (this is in the ATC transcript) - Since Cooper jumped before Ammerman picked up 305 (at 8:13), then Eric takes this as verifying this new guy’s story about Chealis since Chehalis isn’t far from Toledo. - Eric goes on about how this disproves the timestamps on the FBI map. - I pointed out to Eric that we don’t have to rely on the timestamps from the FBI map, we can look at the numerous notes that were taken by several people who are monitoring 305’s location and writing down the times when these locations were reached. For example, I pointed out that at 8:18, we have three different people writing down that 305 was 23 miles south of PDX. I explained to Eric that if Cooper jumped at Chehalis at 8:12ish, then 305 would still be north of Longview at 8:18. - He then says he thought about it overnight and realized that just because Ammerman was handed 305 when they were approaching Toledo that this doesn’t mean that Toledo was when or where he first talked to them at 8:13 (duh). it’s really twisted and convoluted to follow, but that’s the gist. I don’t know who this new guy is, but I don’t trust it because of him saying that he heard the “mark it on your shrimp boats” line. I don’t see how or why anyone working ATC on 305 that night would’ve heard that line (if Rat even said it to begin with) because from 7:59 to 8:13, 305 was on the wrong ATC frequency. They were basically broadcasting to no one at ATC during that time (which is why they didn’t hook up with Ammerman until 8:13). It’s just all nonsense

He was assigned 305 at Toledo. When 305 was handed off to him, 305 accidentally switched to the wrong frequency. So he spent 14 minutes trying to make contact with 305. All this business about the frequency is way out of my wheelhouse, so I could be wrong on that

If only, Nov 2026 is a lifetime away. Every day will drag on, be filled with pain and suffering. Think bad, bad marriage. The dismantling of American greatness will hurt.

What is his argument for this? He seems to have cooled on VP and now the drop zone at Tena Bar? I guess he needs to keep pushing new theories/fantasies to draw attention to himself.

Because you haven't told us yet. So get on with the rumours and inuendo. We're all waiting.

I don't watch any late night shows, so everything I've heard is secondhand. Inasmuch as I don't agree with anybody across the board, I'm not big on one stance trying to drown out or otherwise silence conflicting standpoints. If someone advocates criminality, that is, in and of itself, proscribed. Beyond that, I have a problem with censorship. Where do you draw the line? People spouting definitive, verifiable nonsense, such as Flat Earthers? Mormons? Scientologists? Virtually any religion, for that matter? Apparently, Jimmy had the shooter as a MAGA type, rather than MAGA spawn. Other than that, it seems his key transgression was criticizing the living. I actually am more comfortable with someone who does not speak well of someone they didn't like simply because they're dead. I make a huge difference between people I miss and those whose passing is a relief. You can't criticize someone's lack of class if you have none.
