  • Exclusive: Feds and State AG Investigate an Alleged Human Trafficking Empire Run in Springfield, Ohio, for Years by ‘King George’

    Florida prosecutor pokes hole in potential defense for Trump assassination attempt suspect.

    State Attorney Dave Aronberg says Ryan Routh’s outspoken support for Ukraine in its fight against Russia shows he knows the difference between right and wrong – even as he allegedly attempted an ‘evil’ act against the former president.

    Ryan Wesley Routh’s affinity for the Ukrainian cause in the country’s fight against a Russian invasion shows he knows enough about right and wrong to make an insanity defense a tough sell in connection with his alleged failed assassination plot against former President Trump, according to a Florida prosecutor.

    State Attorney Dave Aronberg, who is not handling Routh’s case after federal prosecutors claimed jurisdiction, said that although the suspect was seen smiling and laughing with defense lawyers in his first court appearance Monday, his “manic” demeanor doesn’t strike him as criminally insane.

    “He fled after all, tried to get away and escape,” he said. “So that shows you that he knew the difference between right and wrong. What’s ironic about this guy is that he also understood that the Ukrainians were the good guys in their fight against the Russians – but to try to make his point, he was trying to do an evil act in attempting apparently to kill someone.”

    No one wears a hat except to block the sun.

    Thanks for the data.

    Apparently, that type of data is being hidden from the tax paying citizens.

    Not only are the good/honest tax paying citizens getting the shaft from higher taxes, the higher prices for insurance rates are hitting hard.

    Increases in Insurance claims most often result in higher rates/prices for all citizens.

    An Increase in Uninsured Drivers Is Pushing Up Costs for Everyone Else. Number of drivers without car insurance has risen since the start of the pandemic
    Wall Street Journal ^ | July 25, 2024 | Kailyn Rhone

    Posted on 7/27/2024, 11:43:17 AM by karpov

    More Americans are driving without car insurance, and it’s making coverage more expensive for everyone else.

    The problem has been growing since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic, according to the Insurance Research Council, whose latest data show the percentage of uninsured drivers rose to 14% in 2022, from about 11% in 2019. The IRC, which calculates the data based on the relative frequencies of auto-insurance claims, expects the numbers have continued to climb since then.

    Washington, D.C., New Mexico and Mississippi are among the jurisdictions with the highest share of uninsured motorists, the IRC says. Washington has recorded almost 19,000 uninsured vehicles since 2021, according to a spokesperson at the district’s department of motor vehicles. In Ohio—ranked 10th on the list—the number of noncompliance suspensions increased 16% between 2020 and 2023, according to the state’s Bureau of Motor Vehicles. Such infractions occur when a driver fails to show proof of insurance at a traffic stop or after an accident.

    J.D. Power, which bases its research on consumer surveys, sees a similar trend and says the percentage of uninsured drivers increased in the first half of this year.

    When more cash-strapped consumers drop their coverage, it reduces the premium pool, which causes many insurers to raise the prices of their policies. The average annual cost of full-coverage car insurance has jumped to $2,278, up 12% from 2023, according to Bankrate.

    Although many of the drivers dropping coverage say they are also battling rising costs for groceries, housing and healthcare, others are rolling the dice and betting they won’t need it.

  • Former Navy Seal Rep. Eli Crane Issues Stern Warning to President Trump Following 2nd Assassination Attempt: “There is a Very Real Possibility that There is a MOLE in the Secret Service” (VIDEO)

    Former Navy Seal, Rep. Eli Crane Issues Stern Warning to President Trump Following 2nd Assassination Attempt: “There is a Very Real Possibility that There is a MOLE in the Secret Service”

    The Gateway Pundit ^ |September 17, 2024 | Cullen Linebargar

    Posted on 9/17/2024, 11:07:28 AM by Macho MAGA Man

    Americans are understandably wondering how another deranged lunatic was able to get within shooting distance of the most famous man in the world just two months after the first assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania. It turns out there may be a sinister and treasonous reason why.

    According to one respected GOP congressman, the country has to consider the strong possibility that there is someone in the Secret Service deliberately putting President Trump in danger.

    Rep. Eli Crane (R-AZ), a former Navy Seal, appeared on the Benny Johnson show Tuesday to give his perspective on the security failures that led to the second attempt on Trump’s life. Crane told Johnson that the evidence he has seen suggests that there is a mole within the Secret Service and that Trump should hire his own security to fill in the gaps the agency is leaving open.

    {My advice to the President is to bolster your private security around you not only to fill holes in the gaps that the Secret Service continues to leave open but also to watch the watchers.

    There is a very real possibility that there is a mole in the Secret Service team surrounding the President or at the highest levels of the Secret Service. So he needs somebody, like a group of individuals around him that are loyal to him.}

    If what Crane is saying is true, this constitutes arguably the most treacherous act in American history. Is it any wonder the Biden-Harris regime wants to stonewall Congress and try to memory-hole the attempts on Trump’s life

    “There’s no need to be pessimistic over the Haitian migrants.”

    The Right’s fixation on this matter is waking up millions of Americans to the problem.

    It solidifies Trump’s campaign message that Biden’s open borders pose an existential threat to this country and only Trump can solve the problem. If he gets another term, Trump can put an end to mass Haitian migration. Getting it done is only a matter of will.

    “He lives in Hawaii, how did he know Trump was playing there that morning?”

    Curious to know when Trump actually decided to go golfing there. If it was 12-?? hours prior..

    That could seriously point to a mole on the inside* giving up Trump’s revised golf schedule.

    Otherwise, this jackass would have had no idea when/where Trump was going to be there.”

    There are just too many coincidences and unplanned incidents at this high level of exposure of President Trump to be Accidental or “Coincidental !”

    The democrats have lied and lied about Trump. They cheated him and our country in 2020.

    They have tried putting him in prison on made up charges only to have higher courts strike them down again and again, then they tried to murder him and are actively covering up the investigation.

    Dan Bongino, who was a Secret Service agent predicted that there would be other attempts to kill him. Unfortunately he was right.

    They have running on the democrat party side a woman named Kamala Harris who received no votes in 2020 and 2024 and was appointed by those running the democrat party who is a marxist along with a communist Chinese admirer Tim Walz.

    They will cheat even more or kill Trump.
