“Donald Trump is a genuine threat to this nation,” Joe Biden tweeted. “He’s a threat to our freedom. He’s a threat to our democracy. He’s literally a threat to everything America stands for.” Yesterday he declared, “most importantly, and I mean this from the bottom of my heart, Trump is a threat to this nation.” This kind of rhetoric depicting Trump as the ultimate threat had become normalized. Is it any wonder that it was also acted on? There’s a pattern here. A Bernie Sanders supporter opened fire at a Congressional baseball game and brought along a list of House...

Exodus 21:6 then his master is to bring him before the judges. And he shall take him to the door or doorpost and pierce his ear with an awl (aul). Then he shall serve his master for life.

How the media coordinated the failed assassination of Donald TrumpIt takes a particular kind of soulless degenerate to get on cable news the day after Trump is shot and treat the billionaire and his supporters as the real threat, but apparently MSNBC and CNN are well stocked with such people.Two months ago, I predicted that the media were laying the groundwork for justifying the assassination of Donald Trump after the New Republic published an entire issue depicting the former president as Adolf Hitler. I wish I could claim some supernatural gift of foresight, but it was not the first time...

NBC has pulled MSNBC’s Morning Joe off the air Monday morning in favor of continuing news coverage of the aftermath of the attempted assassination of President Donald Trump on Saturday, as the Republican National Convention (RNC) begins in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. CNN reported: MSNBC will not air “Morning Joe,” its celebrated politics roundtable program, on Monday, opting to instead air continued breaking news coverage of the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump. The progressive news network confirmed the decision to preempt its influential and top-rated morning show after a CNN inquiry Sunday evening. The network said the show will resume...

The US Federal Government has made two claims that I feel are implausible. The first claim is that the shooter was 'acting' alone. That means, in less than 12 hours they have claimed to research every part of his life, his contacts, his past, where he has been, who he as been with, who he may have been speaking with on-line (including on xbox/game consoles), where he trained and were he got him ammunition. I find that implausible. The second is even...

The infamous commissioner of the New York City Fire Department (FDNY) announced her plans to resign amid mounting scandals, many related to her contentious stance against former President Donald Trump. Leading the agency since 2022, Laura Kavanagh stated in an email that it was time to “pass the torch” to a new commissioner, as reported by the New York Post on Saturday. “My dedication to the FDNY has never and will never waver,” she added. “It has been the honor of a lifetime to devote the last 10 years — five as first deputy commissioner and more than two as...

Never Forget that Donald Trump posted a video on January 6th telling people to go home peacefully. Twitter 1.0 took it down within 5 minutes. They prevented people from hearing this…

The shooter who opened fire on Donald Trump was rejected from his school’s rifle club over his poor aim, his former classmates have said. Thomas Matthew Crooks, 20, was identified by the FBI as the man who tried to assassinate the former president at a campaign rally in Pennsylvania on Saturday evening. Classmates at Bethel Park High, where the shooter graduated from in 2022, described him as an intelligent student with few friends.

Sky News host Danica De Giorgio has reacted to “demented, deranged and deluded” lefties having a meltdown on social media following a failed assassination attempt on former US president Donald Trump.

President Trump is now breaking his silence on the assassination attempt against him during a rally on Saturday in Butler, Pennsylvania. "I’m not supposed to be here, I’m supposed to be dead," Trump told the New York Post. "I’m supposed to be dead." "The doctor at the hospital said he never saw anything like this, he called it a miracle," Trump also told the newspaper onboard his private plane while heading to Milwaukee, Wisconsin, for this week’s Republican National Convention. "By luck or by God, many people are saying it’s by God I’m still here." Trump told the Post that...

Much has been of the Secret Service detail after the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump in Butler, Pa., on Saturday. Many are seeking answers as to how a shooter could position himself on a roof so close to a former president and current presumptive Republican nominee. One theory suggested that some Secret Service members were relocated from Trump’s rally in Butler to a Sunday campaign event for First Lady Jill Biden in Pittsburgh. It was a theory that the Secret Service rejected.

Transcript from video (formatted by ChatGPT): Darkness Because They Will Stop at Nothing Jesse Watters: Let's bring in Florida Congressman and former U.S. Army sniper, Corey Mills. What kind of shot was this from 130 yards, Corey? Corey Mills: Look, at the end of the day, this is a shot your basic training boot camp soldier is required to make within their nine weeks of training. This is one of the easiest shots; they train all the way up to 300 or 500 yards. The resident counter-sniper is not with the United States Army, but actually with the State Department,...

During the Sunday morning service at Family Worship Center, Pastor Donnie Swaggart addresses the Donald Trump assassination attempt.

Removing Biden is wise and needed for the country’s sake, but it will not solve the growing public anger at the left. Joe Biden’s escalating dementia and the long media-political conspiracy to hide his senility from the public are the least of the Democrats’ current problems. Biden’s track record as president may be more concerning than his cognitive decline. He has literally destroyed the U.S. border, deliberately allowing the entry of more than 10 million illegal aliens. His callous handlers’ agenda was to import abjectly poor constituencies in need of vast government services without regard for the current struggles of...

[Fosse Way] This is a theory that I have seen numerous times now, so why not delve deeper. I really try to avoid presenting theories that are my own, I am no academic and absolutely don't want to fly in the face of archaeology or scientific process in any way. What I try to do is question theories presented that seem long held and have no scientific or academic basis, in this case the website rural-roads (link below), wiki and Tacitus himself, that all suggested this was some kind of border, or ditch or wall. The Forgotten Roman Wall |...

Will his bump in the polls allow him to make his choice more outside the mainstream (eg, Donalds, Sanders, Gabbard, Vivek)? Or will it allow him to play it more mainstream (eg, Vance, Burgum, Rubio, Carson)?

A technological development from an American company of a way to legally sell ammunition has been going viral. The use of vending machines to legally validate age and sell ammunition causes some people to ignore all facts and logic and emote “guns are bad!”The vending machines in question, from American Rounds, use computer technology to validate age with picture ID. If the person attempting to purchase ammunition is over 21 years old, they may purchase the ammunition using a picture ID, which the machine validates using facial recognition software. Only credit or debit card purchases seem possible. There does not...

“No one who is born of God practices sin, because His seed abides in him; and he cannot sin, because he is born of God” (1 John 3:9). A decreasing pattern of sin in a believer’s life means his faith is genuine. A sinful life pattern is incompatible with salvation. If you could continue in the same sinful pattern after being saved from sin, that would mean salvation is ineffective. Therefore, 1 John 3 deals with the saving work of Christ and reveals just how effective it is. Verse 5 says Christ “appeared in order to take away sins.” If...

The attempted assassination of Donald Trump is not the kind of event that I would normally write about at Manhattan Contrarian. Like many other newsworthy events, it’s not that it’s not important; it’s that I don’t have any special expertise or insights to offer. But there is one aspect of this attempted assassination that cries out for comment. That is the truly incredible failure of the Secret Service that enabled the shooter to gain access to the vantage point to shoot. I don’t claim to have ever been involved in the security business, or to have any particular knowledge about...
