[Order David Horowitz’s new book, America Betrayed, HERE.]
On Saturday, July 14, a 20-year-old local boy with virtually no online footprint or history of political radicalism brought a ladder and rifle to the Pennsylvania grounds where presidential candidate Donald Trump was about to speak to supporters. The would-be assassin stationed himself on a low, unsecured, slightly sloped rooftop with a direct line of sight to Trump, a mere 130 yards away, and got off a shot that came within a hair’s breadth of killing the likely next President. A Secret Service sniper then eliminated the threat (but only after he got off a total of eight shots, murdering one Trump supporter and critically wounding two others).
A profile of Thomas Matthew Crooks was quickly constructed: a bullied loner with a small circle of friends. a classmate told Fox News, who “were definitely the type, and they did, make threats to shoot up our school.” In the subsequent investigation, the FBI announced that it couldn’t seem to get into Crooks’ phone, and yet the Bureau also asserted confidently and swiftly that he acted alone.
Those are the bare bones of the story you’re expected to accept. And the mainstream media, who have done the heavy Democrat lifting over the last eight years of smearing Trump as Hitler 2.o and a fascist Threat to Democracy™, are now doing their best to keep the narrative focused on Trump and his supporters as being primarily responsible for the country’s heated political rhetoric and violence, including Trump’s own shooting.
In spite of the media’s efforts, a counter-narrative is building momentum, centered on what many are describing as a “sh*t show” of a security failure on the part of the Secret Service. How did the Service drop the ball? Let us count the ways.
Joe Biden’s security apparatus reportedly starved Trump’s security team of the resources it needed, not only for the Pennsylvania rally, but repeatedly over the course of weeks and months. With Trump’s security detail understaffed, Biden’s security team diverted even more resources to a hastily planned Jill Biden event that just happened to be in the area.
NBC News has the timeline of what happened at the Pennsylvania rally. To summarize: Crooks — who also had a range finder and a backpack with him — was reported as a suspicious person a full hour before he began shooting, and yet the Secret Service managed to lose sight of him. Roughly 30 minutes after that initial report, State Police notified the Secret Service of a suspicious person at 5:51 p.m. The Secret Service notified its snipers two minutes later. At 6:02 p.m., Trump took the stage, and seven minutes later, bystanders in the crowd began pointing out Crooks on the rooftop and shouting for law enforcement to stop him. Two minutes later, he opened fire on Trump.
A local police counter-sniper team reportedly was stationed inside the building Crooks crawled on top of; the building was a “watch post” for local police snipers to scan for threats, law enforcement sources told the New York Post. Sources told the Post that the team was inside the building, but not on the roof.
Even as Secret Service snipers on the roof near Trump saw the gunman, security took no action either to neutralize the threat or to surround Trump and remove him from the stage to safety.
All these factors considered, it’s becoming increasingly difficult to see this as a just a series of bumbling errors. On the contrary, they begin to resemble a deliberate plan to render Trump vulnerable while appearing to be mistakes.
Add to all this the humiliating spectacle of female agents of the DEI-weakened Secret Service on the scene of the vehicle into which Trump was hustled, fumbling ineptly with their weapons and sunglasses, and generally exuding uncertainty and panic rather than calm and efficiency.
Secret Service director Kimberly Cheatle, who had elevated “diversity” to one of the top priorities of the organization, offered this jaw-dropping explanation for the decision to leave the roof unguarded: “That building in particular has a sloped roof at its highest point. And so, you know, there’s a safety factor that would be considered there that we wouldn’t want to put somebody up on a sloped roof,” she said.
One look at the roof belies this ridiculous excuse. The angle of the slope can’t be more than, say, 5-10 degrees. Law enforcement officers who were photographed standing over the shooter’s dead body afterward clearly have no difficulty balancing. And agents were stationed on nearby rooftops that had slopes of greater angles than the one on which the shooter lay. Cheatle’s justification for leaving the roof unguarded is so unconvincing that one can only assume she is either shockingly dense or lying.
In a television interview with ABC on Monday, Cheatle appeared to accept full responsibility for the security debacle, declaring that “the buck stops with me”; and yet in the face of a veritable tsunami of calls for her resignation, she vowed “to stay on” and failed to even make a report to the public. Instead of firing her, Homeland Security chief Alejandro Mayorkas, her boss, stated that his “confidence in Kim is 100 percent.” To stonewall the public on the worst security lapse in 40 years raises even more questions rather than resolving them.
Hanlon’s Razor is a concept that warns us never to attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity, although Hanlon misgauged just how evenly distributed malice and stupidity are when it comes to politics. In this instance, the mountain of Secret Service incompetence is so enormous that it strains credulity to accept it as mere stupidity. Considering the reach of the Deep State, the virulent hatred for Donald Trump that suffuses the Left, the Democrats’ history of obsessive attempts to subvert his first presidency and to derail a second term, and the Left’s unrestrained lust for power, it’s far from unreasonable to suspect foul play.
If the assassination attempt on Trump is the result more of malice than stupidity, then where does that buck stop? Who is the most likely candidate to have green-lit the security failures leading to Trump being shot, and possibly even given the go-ahead to the shooter himself? Some in the media are still pretending that the shooter’s motive is unclear; would it be too on-the-nose to suggest that perhaps eliminating the presidential candidate who is crushing the incumbent Biden was the motive? An unstoppable juggernaut of a candidate whom even Democrats were beginning to concede could not lose in November? Hey, we’re just asking questions. But the only person with the answers by her own admission – the head of the Secret Service – is not answering.
Now ask yourself, cui bono? Who benefits most from Trump being removed from the picture? The entire Democrat Party, sure, but who would have the power to authorize such a nefarious scheme? A Deep State operative in one of the alphabet agencies? One of the puppet masters pulling decrepit Joe Biden’s strings? What about the Biden crime family itself? Who would benefit more than Trump’s corrupt, floundering opponent Joe? Or perhaps wife Jill, who is determined to keep her husband in the Oval Office no matter what? Perhaps even their convicted-felon son Hunter, whose fortunes (and a presidential pardon) are directly tied to Dad’s?
Hey, we’re just asking questions.

David Elstrom says
The odds of all these serial screws ups coming together at random is astronomical. Given the rapacity and despotic nature of the Democrat Party; along with its aversion to all truth, it’s very possible that political assassination is in the Democrat playbook.
David Ray says
I suspect a set-up for the opportunity.
Consider that some leftist prick or clique called the police saying shots were fired at MTG’s house at 1:pm.
The hope was the confusion would result in Greene shooting or being shot by the cops responding.
That one failed. The set-up on Jan 6th didn’t (Jan 6th was undeniably a set up. The fake bomb clinches it.)
So it’s not even a small stretch (especially with de rigueur attacks on Trump supporters) to imagine the sniper was known beforehand & given the leeway to proceed.
Wesley Horton says
Funny thing. . this whole matter makes me totally reconsider the killing of JFK back in November of ’63. I had previously read the Warren report and was pretty well convinced there was no plot.
TODAY: I WOULD NOT PUT A GOVERNMENT PLOT PAST THEM!!
This level of convenient “mistakes” and “omissions” along with the actions of a totally incompetent Secret Service, and it’s director are just too convenient.
Floyd Looney says
The Warren Commission didn’t even have all the facts either. Not sure why not. The feds were actively looking for Oswald before JFK ever arrived. They knew the guy was dangerous.
Lightringer says
The sniper might even have been trained and equipped by his deep-state handlers. We’ll never know.
Aristotle Cam says
David you’re on to the answer! Crooks is DEAD! The FBI can’t(Yeah, Right!)figure out his TWO PHONES!
Early TV shots of the Secret Service snipers show them zeroed in on Crooks. They don’t shoot until Crooks
fired his gun first. Lots of questions-no answers. Don’t worry-Comer and Jordan are on this-on Monday!!!
ON MONDAY!!!
Lightringer says
Did they specify Monday of which week?
Condor335 says
Here is a question that keeps gnawing at me: If the Secret Service countersniper team on the roof near the stage where Trump was speaking could clearly identify the gunman on the roof 400 ft away as a hostile, i.e., not local police overwatch/countersniper (which would have been unquestionably doable with their scopes and confirmed on their comms links), and since they had reportedly spotted him well before he began firing, why did they not respond until after he had fired 5 to 8 shots? Is their protocol to let a sniper take out the future president (or at least give it his best shot) and THEN respond? Something is seriously amiss here.
If I were Trump (or a member of his inner circle), I would be quickly forming a private security detail composed of former Delta operators and other SOF combat veterans plus specialists for surveillance tech, drones, secure comms, etc. This is war, and the left (and its party and govt operatives) will stop at nothing to retain (or gain) power and remove their opponents. Putin, for example, uses a Chechen hit team ensconced in a hotel across from the Kremlin to eliminate his rivals. Can the Secret Service be trusted at this point, given who they report to? They are a modern version of Rome’s Praetorian Guard. Consider how many assassinations of Rome’s leaders that they carried out.
Nikolaos Halkides says
There is a report, which I can’t confirm, that the counter-sniper could not get approval to take the shot. Presumably once Crooks started firing, the counter-sniper realized he couldn’t wait (or the Rules of Engagement allowed him to fire on an active shooter) and he then took out Crooks.
Assuming this is true – and it probably is as it explains the mystery – the question becomes “Whose approval did the counter-sniper need?”
BLSinSC says
THIS is exactly the question I posed when it was first revealed that the SS Sniper said – SAID – he was NOT given the OK to SHOOT! WHO gave that STAND DOWN order?? SOMEONE was in charge so WHO was it?? They certainly need to be the FIRST to TESTIFY UNDER OATH and then followed up by the SNIPER to either VERIFY or CONTRADICT the LIE!!
The LEFT’s attitude on this is like The hilLIARry’s “at this point what difference does it make”!! He didn’t die so just shut up and move on!
It’s like arguing with your WIFE – when you PROVE YOUR POINT – then she goes “I don’t want to talk about it anymore”! But this WILL need to be “talked about some more”!
I would take this as a LEGITIMATE TREASON ATTEMPT and have a MILITARY TRIBUNAL in charge and EVERYONE under suspicion taken to GITMO for the process! Put them in those luxury cells and LEAVE them until one cracks. There won’t be room in the DC Dungeon since it should be REFILLED with the CORRUPT LEFT!
Tionico says
Several reports I’ve seen have the roftop snipers (who were NOT SS but local LE vounteers) whio had the perp in their LARE riflescope sights were TOLD to hold fire. So they did… but after the perp fired, they defied that order and fired on the perp, killing him swiftly.
WHO gave the order to stand down? FIRE that person and perhaps cnsider crimonal charges.
SS Job One is to PROEC their charge, DJT. Instead of protecting him they seem to have enabled the perp to do his dirty work. Thank God for is unnterincomeptence. I know dozens of folks who could have made his shot accurately with a /22 rimfire Ruger rifle at that distance. Given an AR? I have persnally witnessed one man fire ten rounds into a ONE INCH circle with his AR pattern rifle in thirty seconds… at a range of FOUR HUNDRED YARDS. This clownwas SO incompetent, for which I am VERY thankful.And I kniw I am not alone.
RAM says
The Jack Ruby effect might be part of this, too. Can’t have the shooter availble to talk, can we?

Wesley ?Horton says
There are no words for this level of incompetence.
Lightringer says
Will there ever be reports on the spent cartridge casings here and there (including on and around the rooftop) and any fired rounds, provided the latter have some integrity left to them? Don’t hold your breath.
Steve Chavez says
DEMOCRATS ALWAYS USE THIS EXCUSE WHEN THEIR SIDE IS GUILTY:
“We need to find out what happened, so it never happens again.” (In this case, they’re pissed that he missed and don’t want that to happen again. Surely, they were so sad as blood drooled off their smiling fanged teeth!) Then they spend all their time COVERING UP WHAT HAPPENED! Notice this when Cheatle is giving testimony. R’s with detailed questions… D’s with “don’t blame her DEI agenda.”
“SLOPED ROOF!” OMG… memes by the thousands joking about this one.
“OUTSIDE THE SECURE PERIMETER?” OMG!
SS SNIPER NEEDED PERMISSION??? Isn’t being there THE permission. (The FBI gave their agents PERMISSION to use deadly force at Mar-a-Lago! Isn’t it understood anyway!) In any police action, the second they see the gun, the person is down because in one split second, a policeman or an innocent could be hit. EIGHT SHOTS and the SS waited? ALSO, BYSTANDERS were screaming at the cops… no permission again.
NOW TRUMP WILL NOT BE ABLE TO WALK SPONTANOUSLY… ANYWHERE!
TRex says
Perhaps that was the secondary objective. If they didn’t kill him, at least he would live in fear of being killed for the rest of his life. We’ve heard the leftist nut-jobs saying Trump set the whole thing up, better luck next time, learn to aim better and so on. There could be scores of these disappointed flakes incentivized to “finish the job”, This threat will loom over Trump for the rest of his public life and the murderous left are just fine with that.
Dave Hunter says
The protocol is to let the shooter take out the disfavored presidential candidate before the CS team can respond. The fact that the SS team knew of a threat well before Trump took the stage shows the truth that they wanted Trump shot.
ca says
w/the mission shoot first, ask questions, “check their phones” later….
Allan Goldstein says
If Cheatle has the goods in re who smuggled the cocaine not the White House, she has enough to blackmail Hunter and Jill…..an by extension, Joe…..into NOT firing her.
Allan Goldstein says
I typed “into” and the automatic editor changed it to “not”. WTF?
Nikolaos Halkides says
Cheatle reportedly has a personal relationship with Jill Biden, so she probably wouldn’t need to resort to blackmail. That relationship could also be significant if Cheatle was, in fact, acting at the behest of others when making these bad decisions that left Trump vulnerable. Mayorkas is another possibility who needs to be looked at.
TRex says
Cheatle, Mayorkas, Wray and Garland are traitorous tools who should be tried, convicted and hung for treason. They are the “strong arms” of this admin and are fully on board with the agenda to intimidate, imprison or even kill any “threat to our democracy”.

Here’s my reporting on why the Secret Service did not shoot until AFTER the shooter engaged and some context about the House Republicans’ investigation already underway (months before Trump’s assassination attempt) into whether the agency’s DEI policies are affecting its readiness.

LC says
Who is paying attention to this?
Short list
Russia – Putin
Chicoms – Xi Jinping
Iranian mulla’s
Condor335 says
Also paying attention:
– any Democrat party nut jobs
– illegal aliens who have crossed the border to set up sleeper cells (from every source listed below)
– PLA/CCP
– Central and S. American criminal gangs such as MS-13
– Hezbollah
– Al Qaeda
– Taliban
– drug cartels
– N. Korea
Note to Trump and team: Assemble a private security detail STAT using former Delta operators and other SOF combat veterans plus operators to support surveillance tech, secure comms, transport, emergency medical. As long as the Secret Service reports to this current Biden regime and its DHS hacks (like Mayorkas), they cannot be trusted to protect Trump and his family or Vance and his family. As another respondent commented above, this is not just a high threat environment for the next 4 months, it will continue through the entirety of his term of office if he wins in November. The Progressive Democrat party is a Marxist-Leninist criminal network with international support that is masquerading as a political party. Act accordingly.
Lightringer says
There was a short-lived flurry of pieces on Iranian attempts to assassinate Trump before this occurred. Any relationship? Probably not, but worth looking into — assuming a real investigative agency exists in America today.
Joe Esposito says
They are all guilty.
Every filthy democrat politician and voter.
Cat says
I am starting to give credence to the water tower theory. Blurry video of someone on water tower and 10 witnesses heard shot coming from water tower. Idea is a sniper, let’s just say CIA, took shot from water tower but they can blame this obvious 20 who they swiftly kill. That is a theory. IDK but why did witnesses report shots from water tower?
Floyd Looney says
There is nothing on the water tower that I can see but a shadow or something
Gordon says
Here is a list of deep state/blob/NWO activities:
1. Operation Crossfire-open and obvious lie and concoction of the Deep State
2. Charlottesville operation
2. Impeachments 1 & 2-obvious bullshit and lies
3, Make and release a virus that kills millions, then deliberately kill millions more with the response(lie about origin and nature of threat, deadly hospital protocols, withhold therapeutics, ineffective and unsafe vax, ineffective and extremely harmful lockdowns) all while enriching themselves beyond imagination. All openly and obviously lying to us straight from the start.
4. George Floyd/BLM operation burn loot murder all while enriching themselves
5. Openly and obviously rig and steal an election to the point where they did not even need to campaign.
6. J6 operation-obvious lies of J6 committee.
6. Cover up of Biden dementia-even though anyone can obviously see it.
The list could go on forever. They openly and obviously lie to our face about everything, even though we can see, hear, and experience the truth ourselves. Even inflation! They don’t care if we know they are lying, they don’t care how obvious it is they are involved in the assassination attempt. It was to be a fait accompli and cover up, then harsh and violent lawfare crackdowns on anyone who objected. Trump surviving may have thrown a wrench in their schemes, but it will probably just be on to the next-internet failure last night-something bigger? New virus, new war, a nuke attack? Be ready for anything there is no depths to which they will not sink.
David Ray says
They’ve become so acquainted with their own bullshit, that they’ve sunk into farce on several occasions.
To wit; the 2nd sham impeachment was conducted to remove someone from office who was ALREADY OUT OF OFFICE..
(Hence, it was nothing more than a childish fit to express their seething hatred – nothing more.)
Wesley Horton says
Sad to note, , , IT WILL GO ON FOREVER. . . at least until I cash in my chips and likely for years later.
Lightringer says
As long as the Party of Slavery, Succession, Segregation, and so on and so forth exists, it will go on. Since John Wilkes Booth successfully assassinated the very first Republican president, this seething hatred has existed to repeat his performance. It’s a pity that the voters do not make an ignominious end to the Democrats by refusing to vote for them anymore.
TRex says
Curious how they waited until after Butler incident to announce the Iranian plot to kill Trump. Maybe Cheatle’s next excuse will be Crooks was recruited by the Iranians and the old “we had him on our radar” BS line.
In reply to your list of “operations”. I get in “discussions” with leftist on another platform. Just reading their responses to the how, what and why is akin to having a conversation with a certified lunatic. I know I’m biased but that doesn’t have any effect on the truth. Their counterpoints are proof positive they would rather live with a lie than admit any Democrat politician, department head or MSM talking head is less than upstanding and truthful. I have seen them attempt to describe every one of the events you listed as extreme right-wing lies or idiotic conspiracy theories.. I don’t know how we can share a country with people so blind to the truth they will go to any lengths to justify, “any means necessary”, preserving a precious “democracy” that doesn’t even exist. That, in itself, should give you some measure of how dumb they are.
Larrd says
Yes. They delude themselves, often purposely.
Steve Chavez says
DEMOCRATS ARE OPENLY SAD… that Crooks missed. You can guarantee they were happy when Trump went down and then pissed as Trump raised his fist. (I was on the road and didn’t see it all when I got home so it went from shot to raised fist. I was shaking for two days while texting.)
FACEBOOK, X, and Instagram are full of people with TDS bummed that the shooter missed. There are posts with Trump: “YOU MISSED.” They are putting “YOU (CROOKS) MISSED… BUMMER!”
As a musician with 4000+ friends on FB, many of them are PROFESSORS who have been psychotically writing about Trump for years, even hoping he and his family would have died from Covid, and even one hoping MAGA’S get Covid and to die… INCLUDING THEIR OWN STUDENTS! (I filed many comments to the University of NM administration and even filed a police report on these DEATH THREATS. I wrote: “What if a professor hoped Covid would infect Gays, Blacks, Muslims, and Mexicans and hoping they would die? IMMEDIATELY FIRED! What’s the difference since students are in fear of that professor!) PROFESSORS ARE OPENLY BUMMED THAT TRUMP IS STILL ALIVE! NO PENALTY? We saw the Jack Black tour cancelled when one of the band member’s birthday wish was about Trump. A PENALTY! PROFESSORS AND ADMINISTRATORS? LOL… THEY OPENLY SUPPORT HAMAS!
David Ray says
Very well said 🇺🇸👍
(Yet the chickenshit media insists it’s our & Trump’s “rhetoric” that led to the shooting.)
Horace Yo says
Those leftist/communist “professors” have been being recruited to brainwash and pervert American students since the early 1900s. Likewise the same subversion by “professors” in Europe. The communist plot to demolish free countries is long standing and current. They are funded and placed in influential positions in government and academia to the point of now having a solid wall of leftist communist “education” loaded onto our youth.
A US college degree likely means you are a brainwashed leftist dupe and wouldn’t know the truth if it bit you on the butt.
sumsrent says
The evidence is mounting… that the assassination attempt was planned ahead of time…
Now you can believe… the islamic loving Luciferian Globalist government of America was behind…

Judith2 says
Crooks had a remote control unit… a white van with explosives was parked nearby with explosives. IT WAS NOT CROOKS VAN. ..DID crooks have an accomplice who would move that van to the crowded area.. if the shooting failed? the van had Arizona plates and was towed away by the FBI.
Blackdog says
One thing never mention about the sniper team being in the building is that they CERTAINLY could hear anyone moving on the roof!!!! The aluminum is thin and transmits a squirrel moving so a person would easy. I know from personal experience.
Also if the team was inside, was there a window to look out? What were they doing in there?
Kevin T Kilty says
Not aluminum, but rather steel which is stronger and cheaper. The building is in a cold region of the U.S. and undoubtedly has insulation below the roof. I know these buildings. I’ve built a few of them.
Now the explanations provided by SS are utterly idiotic and probably purposely false. Yet there is no reason for people to add nonsense. It’s unhelpful and will be used by the helpful Biden allies in the press.
Horace Yo says
FBI- where evidence goes to die. Maybe they were doing Diversity, Equity and Inclusion sort of things with the shades pulled down and couldn’t see the assassin out there with the rifle you know.
Steve Kardas says
Just in ! Now we are hearing that Crooks allegedly had three encrypted accounts overseas. Amazing ! Not only was this 20 year old dork some sort of professional assassin, he was an international man of danger dork. Fascinating…. The plot thickens as the astute FBI directs our attention away from domestic intrigue about the motives of this guy. Of course it could not be our own government that tried to whack Donald ! It was the Iranians ! Stay tuned folks…….
Old Fogey says
A “bullied” cipher, whose father owned 20 firearms and used medications to treat mentally misaligned youth, uses one of his father’s rifles and a mail order range finder, accesses an unprotected roof within easy range (130 years) of the stage, and avoids interception by the Secret Service despite cries from rally attendees directing attention to his presence on the roof. How did the young man know that the roof was unguarded and accessible? Our psychopathic overlords expect Americans to accept a string of preposterous falsehoods, and will most assuredly try again to end the campaign of the single individual whose work to restore order to America will not be matched in this generation.
TRex says
So many questions for which the SS is concocting bogus answers. I saw an overhead photo showing the “threat rings” around the stage. One ring I heard called the “PacMan” ring had an indentation showing the building, which was clearly inside the ring, carved out. The explanation was that building was under the purview of local authorities. WHY? It is clearly inside the second outermost ring and afforded an unobstructed view of the stage inside 150 yards. Whose brilliant idea was it to cede this “prime” spot to inexperienced locals? I’ve been trying to avoid buying into any “theories” until if and when there is evidence to solidly support them. I keep getting that sinking feeling the truth will not come out in my lifetime, if ever.
Dr2xFour says
The odds of Joe winning in 2020… astronomical!
The odds the assassination attempt by a loner passing thru multiple levels of security to get 8 shots off and then is immediately neutralized… astronomical!
The odds “we were told to wait, not take the shot to neutralize the suspect”… he starts to shoot and in that split second they are then authorized to take the shot… astronomical!
The odds we’ll never get the true story… astronomical!
The odds the Deep State and Media is in on it… 100%
Tionico says
he starts to shoot and in that split second they are then authorized to take the shot
report I’ve read states that the snipers (NOT SS but local coppers) returned fire against orders once the perp fired first.
internalexile says
Wonder if “diversity” in this case also means diversity in levels of competence. SS agents, at least the ones assigned to guard the Prez, should be big dudes who spend hours in the gym each week, not short, overweight women who move awkwardly.
LTC John says
This attempted hit on Trump has the CIAs fingerprints all over this.
Onzeur Trante says
Get ready for the coup if DJT wins the election.
Semaphore says
Yes, so many things are wrong here. This was not random, this was orchestrated. I can’t be certain who’s behind it, but my hunch is that it’s spelt CIA.
Boot-Gal says
As far as I am concerned this was a deliberate attempt by the Democrats to murder Donald Trump!!
Even to the untrained in security this is so blatant that it is inexcusable. Since their other forms of law fare and propaganda have failed, they are desperate to eliminate Trump as neither Biden nor Harris is polling well for them.
Chances are they will try again.
Trump should rid himself of the secret service and hire former special forces military men who are both well schooled and experienced in providing high-profile protection. They are fully capable of doing everything needed for his protection and this gives our government minimal information about his security.
The Democrats are infiltrated with psychopaths for whom winning is the only goal and it is to be achieved by any means necessary.
Defeating an enemy, which the Democrats have more than shown themselves to be, requires a willingness to see reality and respond in truth and wisdom and the force needed to stop them.
Underzog says
It was an inside job. Biden said he had Tru,p in a bullseye and he was right. Only the intervention of God saved Trump. If youy want to see a similiar assassination (except that assassination was successful), search for the Acquino assassination on youtube. It happened in 1983.
Onzeur Trante says
One thing that is certain: the people will likely never know the truth of what happened that day.
George says
The deep state (and the shadow government that controls it), Obama, Clinton, Biden, William Burns, Christopher Wray, Mayorkas, Javier Becerra, Harris, Susan Rice, Merrick Garland, Lloyd Austin, Soros, Klaus Schwab, Eric Holder, they all designed this assassination attempt years ago. What we are reading in the media about Crooks was written months ago.
Steve Chavez says
And behind the scenes, Oprah, who wants Michelle and either Eric Holder or more like Susan Rice, two Black Women, another First that Democrats love regardless of qualifications. Hopefully America knows that this isn’t a high school popularity contest.
They all conspired in a Coup attempt against a sitting President and now a former President.

So this klown is insinuating that Jill Biden or another family member was behind the shooting? No wonder many have a view of conservatives as conspiracy mongers
Whiskey Jack says
And of course, as conspiracy theorist, let us not forget about Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton sending Ambassador Chris Stevens into what even state department insiders knew was a Benghazi Libyan terrorist death trap, and then Obama, Clinton, Susan Rice, Samantha Powers and the rest lied serially and systematically to c0ver their total incompetency and dereliction of duty in failing to provide competent security coverage for Ambassador Stevens. And in a complete act of cowardly betrayal, deserting Ambassador Stevens and four valiant others in the Benghazi Embassy siege whom they left to be murdered and butchered at the hands of Ansar al-Sharia, Al-Qaeda and Islamic jihad terrorist. They then blamed the entire Benghazi Embassy siege as a protest action over an anti-Muslim video after team Obama told the Egyptian Prime Minister in a phone call, “We know that the attack had nothing to do with the film. It was a planned attack–not a protest.” I’d really like to tell you progressives and lefties what you really are, but this probably wouldn’t get posted.

The buck stops with me means don’t look any further into this. If I get to keep my job I’m willing to accept the public humiliation of pretending to be completely foolish, incompetent and even a liar about the slope of a roof allowing the president to be in a direct line of fire.

I don’t know what her salary is but I’m sure it’s enough to justify lying through her teeth. Preserving her reputation is already out the window. It’s now a matter of being protected by the hive mind known as the Democrat party.

Fifty-four years ago, July-August, 1970, as a U.S. Senate staffer with the help of an intern whose father co-wrote “The Ugly American,” I worked with Sy Hersh through Dave Obst to break a story that made the front pages in major newspapers across America (Sunday, mid-August, 1970) that contrary to a U.S. Blue Ribbon Science Task Force’s conclusion, the defoliation of rubber plantations in Cambodia was not caused by accidental drift across the border from Vietnam but had the magnitude of a punitive raid against the Cambodian government for harboring Viet Cong and North Vietnamese troops.
Sy Hersh’s story greatly contributed to the cessation of the Herbicide Program in Vietnam shortly thereafter.

The guy was hanging around for hours and even flew a drone over the site and wasn’t stopped.

In that this was a Swamp attempted hit we can be thankful in that the govt can’t do anything right. Not the hit, not the cover-up, no nada.

Gavrilo Princip was able to assassinate Archduke Franz Ferdinand only because the driver of the Archduke’s car screwed up which route he was supposed to follow on an impromptu visit to the Sarajevo hospital, passed Princip by sheer coincidence in front of a delicatessan (Princip and his co-conspirators had already failed their first attempt that day), and then when he tried to reverse away from Princip as he approached with a gun, managed to stall the car’s engine and lock up the gears. If that had happened today I have no doubt the papers would be full of cries that such incompetence and bad luck was impossible to believe and that there *must* be a conspiracy — but there wasn’t.
