Who shot Ashli Babbitt?
American Thinker ^ | 22 Jan, 2021 | Michael Devon

Posted on 01/22/2021 4:59:24 AM PST by MtnClimber

America knew, within a couple of hours, the names of Lee Harvey Oswald, John Hinckley, Marc Chapman, Shirhan Shirhan, James Earl Ray, and James Hodgkinson. (Or did you already forget that James Hodgkinson shot House Minority Whip Steve Scalise and three others on a softball field, in an attempted mass assassination of members of the House GOP caucus?)

But after searching the Internet for a few hours, there only remain questions, and no answers about Ashli’s shooting. My only assumption can be that the hard facts concerning the shooting are so egregious, and so threatening to the incoming Democratic Congress and new Biden Administration that the American people are once again being treated as mushrooms; we are kept in dark and fed piles of stinking manure.

Here are few questions a lot of Americans would like answered.

What is the name of the federal employee that pulled the trigger and shot an unarmed American civilian?

What federal agency did the trigger-puller work for? Many allegations from both the left and right say the trigger-puller was US Secret Service, not Congressional Police. We just don’t know.

Has there been a preliminary investigation by the United States Attorney for the District of Columbia (who serves as DA for the District), th Capitol Police, or the FBI? What are the results?

Is the trigger-puller back on full time duty? Did he or she make a taped statement the day of the shooting? Who was in the room during the statement? Who has custody of the statement?

Was there an autopsy performed on Ashli Babbitt? Who performed the autopsy? When will the finding be released? Was the crime scene sealed and the physical evidence catalogued?

What agency processed the crime scene? FBI, Capitol Police, or DC police?

On some radio program I heard a guy (how’s that for proof?) saying that Pelosi and others had been there like only minutes before, inside that very door, before being escorted to some safe area.

The guards inside that door might have been told by “high authority” that no matter what, nobody should be allowed past that door.

Sometimes an adamant order from a high authority can override a soldier’s or a policeman’s training.

I know that conventional wisdom is that she was a Trump supporter but in the video it appears she is completely surrounded by what looks like to me antifa agitators. I can’t help but be suspicious about that. A freeper sent me a link the other day to confirm her Trump support but I’m just not 100% convinced. I am in no way justifying her death, just something in the narrative doesn’t sound right.

Note well that the news media has been silent on the issue! The person who did the shooting has not been held responsible for murdering an unarmed female that could have easily been detained upon passing through that window. The shooter has not been brought to justice. The media has not gone after the shooter. The media is obviously being restrained from doing so but by whom and why?

Yes, I'm aware of that quote.

Interesting how the Left loves to keep assusing Trump of being in bed with the Russians, when in fact it is the LEFT who have always been and are still to this day.

The Links Between Black Lives Matter and Nicolas Maduro Revealed

PanAm Post ^ | June 23, 2020 | PanAm Post Staff

[excerpt]
"...while Black Lives Matter claim to oppose police abuse and racism around the world, the organization is simultaneously a great supporter of some of the world’s most brutal and repressive dictators. In particular, the founders of BLM have been staunch supporters and allies of the sanguinary Venezuela dictator Nicolas Maduro and of the Castro regime in Cuba.

In December 2015 Black Lives Matter sent a delegation, headed by the organization’s co-founder, Opal Tometi, to act as observers during the Venezuelan Parliamentary elections of that year. The Maduro regime did not allow accreditation for observers from the Organization of American States, the UN, or the EU. The only accredited observers where from regimes and organizations friendly to the “revolutionary cause.”

Later that same month Tometi penned an article where she espouses, word for word, the regime’s standard text for international propaganda.

“In these last 17 years, we have witnessed the Bolivarian Revolution champion participatory democracy and construct a fair, transparent election system recognized as among the best in the world ,” wrote Tometi about one of the world’s most corrupt voting systems in history.

Earlier in 2015 Maduro was given an award at the Afro-descenndants Summit” held in Harlem. Maduro was invited at the behest of the Black Lives Matter leadership. ..."

Moscow defense minister inks deals with Cuba, Venezuela, Nicaragua for joint exercises

by Bill Gertz, February 20, 2015

Russia agreed to provide military training for three leftist regimes in Latin America and increase military visits and exercises following a visit last week to the region by Moscow's Defense Minister Sergei Shoygu, Pentagon officials said.

Shoygu met with defense and military leaders in Cuba, Venezuela, and Nicaragua and signed several agreements on warship visits and military training during the visit, which ran from Feb 11 to 14.

It is not clear whether any new arms deals were completed during the visit.

Defense officials said the Russian leader is seeking bases in the region for strategic bomber flights that Shoygu recently promised would include flights over the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean. ..."

Notice that there were police in front of the doors and then all of a sudden they were gone, allowing "Three Hats Guy" and the one with the pole to break the windows.

Also, police were right behind them, allowing them to do it.

Clinton Cranks Out Executive Orders 12/11/2000 w/ Freeper comments
1/19/2021, 11:00:45 AM · 8 of 12
SemualRoberts to OneVike

This world was not built on coincidence; therefore, why do we see such things?

A simple G-search will give you squat when you look for the commonality of family origins. However, I am not an average researcher, and so here are the uncanny “coincidences.”

Hold on, there are several trails amongst the rabbits below:

#133 cites one Bruce Babbitt:

-—””-—
Clinton Set to Unleash Executive Order Onslaught
“Congress should tell him, if he has the gall to move ahead with executive orders that essentially remove natural resources from the market in the U.S., they will veto him with legislative action that President George W. Bush will sign,” Jeffrey said.

..When Republican lawmakers met with Dick Cheney on Capitol Hill, some urged a Bush Administration to work aggressively to reverse Clinton’s orders. But Bush’s staff is making no promises.

“Obviously, we’re going to take a look at all executive orders as part of duties of any administration, and we will do so,” said Bush spokesman Ari Fleisher.

The president-elect has limited authority to reverse his predecessor’s orders. It is really up to Congress to pass legislation to undo what President Clinton has done.

“Bush should not try to use the executive power to achieve conservative outcomes. He should also try to shift the power to take these decisions back to the legislature which is where the Constitution puts them, because the legislature is the branch closest to the voters,” said Jeffrey.

Most presidents have used executive fiat to get things done in their final days. President Jimmy Carter holds the record for signing the most midnight regulations. Now President Bill Clinton stands ready to topple that record as the clock runs out on his presidency.

Critics call Clinton’s executive orders to set aside or expand 10 national monuments an “intrusive federal land grab.” But outgoing Interior Secretary Bruce Babbitt is warning President-elect Bush not to reverse any of those designations, saying, “people like their monuments.”

Bruce Babbitt, Cheap Crook

BLOOD TRAIL: Arizona’s BRUCE BABBITT knew in 1980

133 Posted on 12/20/2000 01:59:03 PST by Uncle Bill
-—””-—

Bruce Babbitt was known within the ARIZONA scene. Here is a bio-interview from 2012 in which he lays out some knowledge into the politics of the West and gives some familial background, that he did have family in CA.

Another famous Babbitt was Bob Babbitt from San Diego, who in the professional biking scene, is legendary. I couldn’t find if he is in fact related to the aforementioned Bruce, but as the Arizonian Babbitt was a Clintonian, Bob was a great admirer of one Robin Williams, stout representative of the California Democratic Party (and most won’t do the research, so here it is: Robin Williams, b. 1951, into a lineage of Mississippi Senator and Governor McLaurin

—””—
He became district attorney at age 21 and was described as “one of the foremost lawyers in the State”. He participated in the convention for the writing of the Mississippi Constitution in 1890 and was described as a free-coinage man. A Democrat, as were most whites in the South through the mid-twentieth century, McLaurin was elected by the state legislature to the U.S. Senate, serving from 1894 to 1895.

He was the first Governor of Mississippi to be elected under the Mississippi Constitution of 1890, which disenfranchised most blacks by raising barriers to voter registration. These changes essentially ended the competitiveness of the Republican Party in the state, as well as severely weakening the Populist Party. The last Confederate veteran elected as governor, McLaurin won the 1895 election, defeating Populist Frank Burkitt. He served from 1896 to 1900.

At Hazlehurst in 1898 the Governor explained in a speech that one of the causes of the depleted state treasury was inadequate taxation of the railroad corporations.

In October 1898 McLaurin traveled by train to Forest, Mississippi, after white rioting in nearby Harperville. Blacks had resisted the arrest of one of their community, killing one white man. A mob of whites quickly gathered, killing nine blacks by the next day. The county sheriff and a posse arrested some blacks, while the white mob continued to kill blacks on sight. The New Orleans Picayune said that 11 black men were killed and one white. The sheriff took several black men under armed guard to Meridian, Mississippi, to protect them from the white mobs in Forest.

McLaurin returned to the US Senate in 1901 after being elected by the state legislature to that seat in 1900; he was re-elected January 19, 1904.] - Wikipedia
—””—

McLaurin died Dec 22 1909 while a U.S. Senator - he was quickly replaced in the interim by James Gordon, who has another coincidental past relative to today...

—””—
The day after his appointment by Governor Noel to the United States Senate, Gordon was identified by the Memphis Press-Scimitar as a former fugitive who had been sought as a suspect in the conspiracy to assassinate President Abraham Lincoln. Gordon was listed in 1865 by the United States government as a fugitive, and a reward of $10,000 had been offered for his capture, dead or alive. Later that year, he was ruled out of the suspects. Gordon had admitted that he had met with John Wilkes Booth in Montreal in March 1865, and had discussed plans to kidnap Lincoln, but denied any discussion of an assassination
—””—

This was all done during a post Teddy Roosevelt presidency and a William Howard Taft term (this is another astonishing “coincidence”; let me know if you get the similarities...:

—””—
- President of the United States (1909–1913) and Chief Justice of the United States (1921–1930), the only person to have held both offices.

- chosen successor of Theodore Roosevelt, but was defeated for re-election by Woodrow Wilson (D) in 1912 after Roosevelt split the Republican vote by running as a third-party candidate (Bull Moose party).

- In 1921, President Warren G. Harding appointed Taft to be chief justice

- Taft was born in 1857. His father, Alphonso Taft, was a U.S. Attorney General and Secretary of War.

- Taft attended Yale and joined the Skull and Bones, of which his father was a founding member. {The beginning of Skull&Bones member preceding the popular incumbent, reminiscent of the 2004 election between S&B members GWBush and JKerry}

After becoming a lawyer, Taft was appointed a judge while still in his twenties. He continued a rapid rise, being named Solicitor General and as a judge of the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals. In 1901, President William McKinley appointed Taft civilian governor of the Philippines. In 1904, Roosevelt made him Secretary of War, and he became Roosevelt’s hand-picked successor. Despite his personal ambition to become chief justice, Taft declined repeated offers of appointment to the Supreme Court of the United States, believing his political work to be more important.

With Roosevelt’s help, Taft had little opposition for the Republican nomination for president in 1908 and easily defeated William Jennings Bryan for the presidency in that November’s election. In the White House, he focused on East Asia more than European affairs and repeatedly intervened to prop up or remove Latin American governments. Taft sought reductions to trade tariffs, then a major source of governmental income, but the resulting bill was heavily influenced by special interests. His administration was filled with conflict between the conservative wing of the Republican Party, with which Taft often sympathized, and the progressive wing, toward which Roosevelt moved more and more. Controversies over conservation and antitrust cases filed by the Taft administration served to further separate the two men. Roosevelt challenged Taft for renomination in 1912. Taft used his control of the party machinery to gain a bare majority of delegates and Roosevelt bolted the party. The split left Taft with little chance of re-election and he took only Utah and Vermont in Wilson’s victory.

After leaving office, Taft returned to Yale as a professor, continuing his political activity and working against war through the League to Enforce Peace. In 1921, President Harding appointed Taft as chief justice, an office he had long sought. Chief Justice Taft was a conservative on business issues and under him there were advances in individual rights. In poor health, he resigned in February 1930, and died the following month. He was buried at Arlington National Cemetery, the first president and first Supreme Court justice to be interred there.
—””—
We all have forgotten, but the path precedence has been made in history to have a President appointed to the Supreme Court...

...back to the topic at hand; we left off with Robin Williams...
Laura McLaurin Janin aka Laurie McLaurin Williams (Mississippi model, nicknamed Punky) and dad Robert Williams (executive at Ford) gave Robin the McLaurin name his mother was given and kept during her marriages; here is a brief view into his parents.

https://www.theepochtimes.com/robin-williams-mother-and-father-who-were-laura-mclaurin-robert-fitzgerald-williams_868810.html

Robin would go to the same Yale as Taft’s father and Taft, GW’s father, and GW and JKerry, and cannot know if Babbitt went to Yale, because of the lack of resources available...

But to those researching Ashli Babbitt (second known marriage, after a long first) might she have been married into a long-standing chain of political divisiveness...

Your thoughts?

I believe that folks like the Clintons always had private security/investigators at their disposal doing things that they wanted to keep “private”.

BTW did they ever find out who hired Craig Livingstone?

I only just noticed that the pane that Ashli climbed through wasn’t broken, it fell out in once piece. It’s very clear in the film. It was not a broken window with shards all around, it fell out in one piece and left a full entry gap.

I think she was picked out by the antifa group. I think that she was probably picked because she was enthusiastic and naive about antifa being there. We will never know what story they told her. It is looking more and more like she was led into a trap.
