jamiburns45 — X Posts
@jamiburns45 is the X account whose April 23, 2026 post circulated the Newsmax segment featuring Rob O'Neill (the Navy SEAL who killed bin Laden) and Brig. Gen. Blaine Holt — the source clip for the "something exploded on him" testimony now documented across the site's microphone and medical pages. Items below are attributed claims from the circulated segment, not court findings.
Claims from X posts
- Posted the ~6-minute Newsmax video in which Rob O'Neill reportedly said: "I've never seen a shirt move like that. That looks like an explosion to me" (primary post, Rob O'Neill Navy SEAL Testimony).
- In the same segment, Gen. Blaine Holt reportedly said "I'm with Rob, something exploded on him" and rejected the 30-06 spine-impact explanation (Blaine Holt profile).
- O'Neill reportedly raised: scene cleanup prioritized over medical aid, SIM cards removed from cameras, the scene paved over days later, and a screwdriver left on the roof undercutting the rifle-reassembly narrative (Rob O'Neill profile).
- Both veterans reportedly cited the Lee Harvey Oswald parallel and Zachariah Qureshi's retracted "we got our guy" post as a 90-minute window for a real killer to flee.
- Counterpoint carried in the clip: both men framed their remarks as opinion and demands for transparency — "not in a court of law having to prove it" — not forensic findings.
Investigative value
This account is the distribution point for one of the most-cited expert-opinion clips in the mic-explosion debate. The site relies on the post as the source artifact for the O'Neill/Holt testimony pages; the underlying claims remain attributed opinion from the two speakers.
