Well— it happened again. Thank heavens, they failed again.
Some curious patterns are emerging from the three shooters. All three episodes share a common shape: a lone, heavily armed man, apparently motivated at least in part by politics, probing the edges of Trump’s protective bubble and exploiting a specific vulnerability in the environment. When does a ‘lone wolf’ become a pack?
In Butler, Pennsylvania, shooter Thomas Matthew Crooks climbed onto an unsecured rooftop just outside the rally perimeter; in Florida, Ryan Wesley Routh built a sniper’s hide along the fence line of Trump’s golf course; and at the Correspondents’ Dinner, Cole Thomas Allen tried to blast through the Secret Service checkpoint just outside the ballroom.
Each time, the attack emerged from just beyond what security planners assumed was “good enough” standoff distance— high ground outside the venue fence, a concealment point just beyond the fairway boundary, or a magnetometer line that turned out to be just spread-out enough for a rapid charge from around the corner.
t’s almost like each successive shooter knows how the Secret Service’s protocols have changed.
Politically, that narrative pattern feeds two competing stories: one, of a president repeatedly targeted and miraculously spared, which can be framed in almost providential terms; the other, of a security system that keeps being surprised by shooters who seem to know exactly where the gaps are, keeping Trump’s public appearances in a permanent state of high‑alert brinkmanship.
You needn’t believe in a grand conspiracy to notice that the “random loner” keeps showing up exactly where the professionals left the door cracked open.
I don’t want to beat a dead horse here. But this is important. If this were just three different shooters exploiting three different weak spots, that would be bad enough. But when you look more closely at the details, the pattern gets even harder to wave away as “bad luck.”
The failure isn’t just that there was a blind spot; it’s that the part of the system designed specifically to catch that particular blind spot was never switched on.
In the case of Trump assassination attempts, we’ve now reached three— three gunmen, three “lone wolves,” three times the system somehow accidentally left the exact wrong piece of ground uncovered.

When it's three times, it's not accidental.
Two of the shooters traveled completely across the country to be at the right spot at the right time.

Wonder who financed and backed them?
Whoever that was is the one that needs to be dealt with: BIG TIME.
The Deepstate wants Trump dead. Simple.
The one who hid at the golf course where President Trump was playing supposedly lived in Hawaii on a part-time roofer or other construction worker job? Who lives in Hawaii on that?
I have a friend who’s a pharmacist and he and his family were barely scraping by on a pharmacist income there; huge decrease in lifestyle. They finally said bye bye to that expensive lifestyle and moved back to the continental USA.
Someone was subsidizing that creep nutball and we haven’t heard details yet?!!!
Coincidentally they turned out to be incompetent. They obviously aren't trained or "professionals". There has to be a recruitment effort of some sort it seems.
Isn’t there a photo of this guy with Jimmy Kimmell at the No Kings rally in SoCal recently?
It is not coincidence. That is what happens when you groom and recruit crazy people to do assassinations. They are plausibly deniable as "Lone Wolf"(tm) shooters, but their reliability is very poor. On the other hand, there is a large supply of potential recruits and only one of them needs to get lucky.
Even a failed assassination attempt is effective at dissuading political opponents or impeding their activities.
That is what we are dealing with in the current news events. Four times in a year (yes, there have been at least four attempts by now) is a distinctive pattern.
It is time to go after the sponsors with hammer and tongs. It is also time to go after the supporters. We actually have laws for such activities.
That guy had owned a business for years and worked in Hawaii and owned properties in the states, his entire work life was largely dealing with a lot of cash and easy to hide income as self employed, he had also dealt drugs and may have raised cash from his nutty internet site.
In the months before the assassination attempt he had sold a house in the states, there is no evidence of him being a big spender or living well, either.
I believe so.
America needs to go full Pinochet before it’s too late.
Simple explanation, we dont read about the ones that didnt get through. Either caught or turned away.
Logical non-sequitur.
Old WH Hall had perfectly adequate security.
The other day Kimmel made a comment during his show which makes one wonder, “Our First Lady, Melania, is here. Look at Melania, so beautiful. Mrs. Trump, you have a glow like an expectant widow.” This was during his fake WHCD roast.
I heard. Absolutely disgusting.
Oh come now, it’s all just coincidence. /s/
I thought it is 4 now...

Jeff is my new Rush. I can’t miss a day. I just discovered him a couple of months ago, and I’m forever grateful to have such a sharp mind to read.
I don’t need to agree or disagree with him about things. He gives me food for thought always.
I wish all journalists did that, but of course, they don’t think that’s their job description.
