    After I saw Oliver Stone’s movie JFK in 1991, I began reading books on the JFK assassination. As the years went on, I gradually became persuaded that the assassination was actually a highly sophisticated regime-change operation on the part of the U.S. national-security establishment, i.e., the Pentagon and the CIA. But I never felt that the evidence was sufficient to persuade me beyond a reasonable doubt, which is the standard of proof in a criminal case. Then I read Douglas Horne’s five-volume book Inside the Assassination Records Review Board. By the time I finished reading that book, I knew beyond...

    A tape apparently recorded by murdered Russian spy Alexander Litvinenko a year before he was poisoned has revealed he was digging up links between Vladimir Putin and one of the world’s most dangerous terrorists. A Telegraph investigation uncovered the audio recording, in which the dissident claims from beyond the grave that Russia’s president had a “good relationship” with Semion Mogilevich - a Ukrainian crime boss who was on the FBI's most wanted list and whom Mr Litvinenko believed was selling weapons to al-Qaeda. The apparent recording of Mr Litvinenko is published for the first time ahead of a public inquiry...

    CBS News Capitol Hill correspondent Scott MacFarlane told podcaster Chuck Todd on Wednesday about how traumatized he was by Trump rallygoers blaming the media for the assassination attempt against President Donald Trump in 2024. MacFarlane said he had personal trauma from the crowd’s immediate rage in response. "For those of us there, it was such a horror because you saw an emerging America," MacFarlane told Todd on his podcast. "And it wasn't the shooting, Chuck. This was – I got diagnosed with PTSD within 48 hours. I got put on trauma leave, not because, I think, of the shooting, but...

    Former Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle responded to the GAO report on the Butler assassination attempt released by Senator Grassley. On Saturday, just one day shy of the one-year anniversary of the assassination attempt against President Trump, Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-IA) released a report highlighting some of the Secret Service failures. As TGP reported earlier, a new Government Accountability Office (GAO) report revealed that the Secret Service during Biden’s presidency did not alert the team responsible for securing Trump’s July 13, 2024, rally. The report revealed the Secret Service, under then-Director Kimberly Cheatle’s leadership, knew of a threat...

One year later, the facts remain as chilling as ever: a former President of the United States and major party candidate was shot in the head at a publicrally by an individual who was reported as suspicious and carrying a rangefinder to...

    Had that information been shared, federal and local law enforcement in Butler, Pa., could have provided heightened security for the president.. A new report on the Butler, Pa., assassination attempt on President Trump reveals that the Secret Service received classified intelligence regarding a threat to Trump's life 10 days before the rally, but failed to share the information with other key agencies. The damning report comes from the federal Government Accountability Office (GAO) one year after a gunman's bullet grazed Trump's right ear during a campaign rally speech. The shooter, Thomas Crooks, killed attendee Cory Comperatore as he was protecting...

    WASHINGTON, D. C. - U.S. Rep. Michael Rulli wants to mark the yearly anniversary of the day an assassin tried to shoot President Trump as a national “Faith and Defiance Day.” The Salem, Ohio, Republican announced Friday that he’s introduced a resolution to designate the yearly anniversary of the 2024 attempt on Trump’s life on July 13 as “Faith and Defiance Day” to honor Trump, and those who were killed and injured at the political rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. Rulli says he was inspired when Trump stood up after a bullet grazed his ear, with his fist raised, “telling us...

Trump told his Secret Service detail about his concerns about the unidentified junior agent at a Christmas party for the agents last year. “As you guys can see, that person is no longer welcome here,” Trump said to the agents at the Christmas party at Mar-a-Lago, according to RCP.

    Shooter's motives still unclear despite extensive investigation into the attack that nearly changed American history.. As the one-year mark nears since the attempted assassination of President Donald Trump, questions remain unanswered; notably, why did Thomas Matthew Crooks carry out the attack, and how did he get so close? Despite the year's passage, the mystery endures surrounding the 20-year-old Pennsylvania native’s motivation. Fox News Digital spoke with two former federal officials about the lingering questions. Former FBI agent John Nantz said Crooks did not fit the profile of a politically motivated extremist. "Crooks looked not so much like an ideologue, not...

    Six members of the Secret Service have been suspended for failures related to last year’s assassination attempt against President Trump at a rally in Butler, Pa. The suspensions for the six agents ranged from 10 to 42 days, and they won’t be paid while on leave, Secret Service Deputy Director Matt Quinn told CBS News on Wednesday. The agents will not be fired, but upon return to work, they will be placed in roles with diminished operational responsibility. “We aren’t going to fire our way out of this,” Quinn told the outlet. “We’re going to focus on the root cause...

    Six agents were suspended by the U.S. Secret Service for failures connected to last year's attempted assassination of then-presidential candidate Donald Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania, an official told ABC News. The personnel moves were confirmed four days shy of the anniversary of the July 13, 2024, shooting incident that left Trump's ear bloodied. Corey Comperatore, a firefighter attending Trump's campaign rally that day, died in the attack. Countersnipers in Trump's Secret Service who were on-site killed the shooter, identified by the FBI as 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks. In the aftermath of the shooting, an independent review by the Department of...

    The Department of Justice has accused two people of selling a rifle to Ryan Routh, who was charged with trying to kill President Trump at his Florida golf club last year. Two defendants — Tina Brown Cooper and Ronnie Jay Oxendine — have pleaded guilty to gun-related charges in federal court, after being indicted in March and arrested in April. Cooper pleaded guilty to firearm trafficking on Monday, and Oxendine pleaded guilty last month to possessing an unregistered firearm after police found a short-barreled shotgun in his storage building. In court papers filed in both cases as part of the...

    Andrei Badalov, the vice-president of Russia's national oil pipeline, Transneft, has been found dead after allegedly falling out of a window of his home in suburban Moscow, law enforcement told Russian state media on Friday. The former businessman's body was discovered beneath a window of a house in Rublyovka, an upscale residential neighbourhood on the outskirts of the Russian capital, TASS, Russia's national news agency, says. The state-run oil conglomerate also confirmed Badalov's death, without elaborating on the circumstances, but said his work came during a “difficult and stressful period” due to wartime sanctions, according to the independent Russian newspaper,...

[Note his first name has been variously spelled in official documents as, Abdur Rahman, Abdurahman, Abdulrahman and Aldurahman. We have settled on the convention of using Abdurahman, the phonetic spelling used on Alamoudi's checks during this period of time - see below.] Alamoudi is a convicted al-Qaeda linked terrorist, who...

    Syria decided on Tuesday to postpone releasing the findings of its investigation into the Feb. 12 assassination of Hezbollah operations chief Imad Mughniyah just as Iranian media outlet, Fars News Agency, reported through its Persian language service that Syrian authorities had detained a Saudi Arabian intelligence official for allegedly participating in the assassination. According to the Fars report, the Saudi official’s Syrian girlfriend bought the two vehicles used in the bombing that killed Mughniyah. We are also told that Prince Bandar bin Sultan, a top Saudi national security official, masterminded the operation. While Damascus is refraining from officially implicating Riyadh...
