Former FBI Assistant Director Says Assassination Suspect May Have Received 'Inside Information' from '3rd Party'
Western Journal ^ | September 16, 2024 | Michael Schwarz

one wonders how President Trump and those who love him have managed to cope....

there is no telling what might happen to the United States of America if deranged and homicidal anti-Trump lunatics ever get their way...

former FBI Assistant Director Chris Swecker told host Maria Bartiromo that 58-year-old Ryan Wesley Routh, who tried to assassinate president at Trump International Golf Club in Palm Beach, Florida, on Sunday, might have used “inside information” from a “3rd party” to determine Trump’s whereabouts.

I want to know how that person knew to be there, at that golf hole, at that time, that day,” Swecker said ...

Indeed, it is bad enough that the Secret Service once again allowed a potential assassin to get within several hundred yards of the former president.

At a press conference on Sunday, Palm Beach County Sheriff Ric Bradshaw told reporters that the would-be murderer had hidden himself in shrubbery on the perimeter of the golf course between three and five hundred yards away from Trump.

The USSS has already come under intense scrutiny for allowing Thomas Matthew Crooks to fire eight shots at Trump from a nearby roof outside a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, on July 13, wounding the former president and killing rallygoer Corey Comperatore.

Sunday’s attempted assassination, however, featured a different and even more ominous element.

Whereas the Butler rally was a public event, announced in advance, Trump’s golf round on Sunday was not.

“He’s either surveilling Donald Trump or he received some inside information,” Swecker said of the alleged would-be assassin Routh. “That’s pretty sinister if that’s the case because that implicates a 3rd party either wittingly or unwittingly.”

Swecker implied, of course, that someone close to Trump might have shared the former president’s whereabouts with the would-be assassin.

Even more, how did he manage to pass the background check with a felony conviction? Me thinks it was all provided.

Do the feds have big red arrow signs with Trump’s name on them sticking out of the trunk of cars asking for a friend.

12 + hour wait in a bush on a hunch?

A "good" sniper will wait DAYS for his target.

How does a self-employed roofer earn ANYTHING while traveling the country and the world half the time?

The DoJ/FBI should not be allowed to interfere with, much less investogate, this case. Routh does a convincing job of presenting himself as a classic manic depressive with delusions of grandeur. But something is funneling him money. Perhaps his purported “housing for the homeless” operation is a vehicle for laundering “grants” and “contributions”. Would be interesting to see a portfolio of his actual projects.

No offense but that is insane. This guy is a nutjob that was too crazy to volunteer for the Ukranians. When you are too crazy for the Ukranians, that indicates a big problem. There is no way this guy is a “good” sniper. His choice of equipment alone shows that.

“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 !”

*A Mole on the inside, a Golf Course employee/?

Last ? (How did this loser from Hawaii, know where & when to be there with his sniper gear??)

He is a roofer, he may have been in Florida for a while subsisting on fly by night roofing jobs for house flippers. Or, he may know other libs in Palm Beach who may know details about Trump security.
