Secret Service agents failed to take charge of decision-making for security at the Butler, Pennsylvania, rally where former President Donald Trump was shot in July, a bipartisan Senate committee revealed in a new report Wednesday, leading to key lapses in preparation and communication that day. The report, citing interviews with top Secret Service officials and local law enforcement who oversaw the security for the rally, said the failures were “foreseeable, preventable” and found that many of the problems identified by the committee “remain unaddressed” by the Secret Service. Some of the problems highlighted include the Secret Service failing to set...

@amuse @amuse QUESTION: Why was MSNBC filming Trump on his golf course moments before he was shot? How did they know to be there? Who told them? https://x.com/amuse/status/1835783747742159284

NewsNation anchor Chris Cuomo on Monday called out media outlets and “political players” who have downplayed the assassination attempts against former President Donald Trump. Cuomo’s reality check came during his impassioned opening monologue on his eponymously-named show, Cuomo. He said he is bothered by the “reaction and lack of reaction to the second attempt on Trump in the last couple of months” and called out those who say the suspected would-be assassin, Ryan Wesley Routh, “didn’t even shoot.” “What if it was your father?” Cuomo asked. “Or what if it was Kamala Harris or President Biden, God forbid? [Do] you...

It is just beyond revolting, if not completely predictable, that in the wake of the second assassination attempt on former president Donald Trump that the loudest, shrillest voices within the Democrat Party and the media – which as we all know is in point of fact a redundancy – have the unmitigated, radioactive temerity to actually blame him for the attempts on his life. After almost every second of every day for nine straight years of comparing him to Adolph Hitler and sliming anyone who supports him as not only a racist bigot but of willing to throw those unlike...

Another Trump assassination plot? The media’s double standard strikes againHow do you think the Democrats and their media allies would respond if a 19-time Republican donor tried to kill the Democratic Party’s candidate for president? The question answers itself.Donald J. Trump nearly lost his life on Sunday. Again. An armed gunman waited for him in the bushes. He brought a GoPro camera to record it. A Secret Service agent spotted the barrel of a gun through a fence and fired at the gunman. The gunman fled. He was caught. And now we slowly learn about him and his motive. President...

The Trump campaign is not playing around as the corporate media desperately attempts to absolve Democrats and their enablers (including themselves) of blame for the latest assassination attempt on the 45th President. As The Gateway Pundit reported, a second attempt was made on President Trump’s life, just two months after he came within a centimeter of being killed in Butler, Pennsylvania by a Democrat donor named Thomas Crooks. Shots were fired at the 45th president’s golf club in West Palm Beach on Sunday afternoon at roughly 1:30 pm as he was playing golf with real estate investor Steve Witkoff. The...

“Donald Trump is looking increasingly likely to be the winner of the presidential race. I have long held that the globalists will wrap up an economic collapse or a world war and throw it in Trump’s lap.” — Brandon Smith. This time, the shooter lives to do some ‘splainin’. Do you wonder if he might get around to ‘splainin’ his role with the shady non-governmental orgs (NGOs) supported by the CIA who enabled his travels to Ukraine and his efforts there recruiting global mutts to fight for the Nazi-ish Azov Battalion? Perhaps he might rat-out actual government officials who assisted...

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said Monday on MSNBC’s “The Rachel Maddow Show” that former President Donald Trump’s politics of “hate and division” put the United States’ security in danger. Clinton said, “I’m very hopeful, and even optimistic that Americans who do not want to see a continuation of this politics of hate and division will reject Trump.” She continued, “The object in this case is Donald Trump, his demagoguery, his danger to our country and the world. You know, they were merciless about what they saw as President Biden’s problems in the debate and calling for him to...

Former President Donald Trump said Monday that the man who allegedly tried to assassinate him as he golfed Sunday was motivated by the “rhetoric” of President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris. “He believed the rhetoric of Biden and Harris, and he acted on it,” the Republican presidential nominee, 78, told Fox News. “Their rhetoric is causing me to be shot at, when I am the one who is going to save the country, and they are the ones that are destroying the country — both from the inside and out.” Trump cited suspect Ryan Wesley Routh, 58, using near-identical...

A second assassination attempt on the former President, and the feebs knew about him again. In fact, there are dozens of questions being raised, some conspiracy-driven, but many legit that should be answered under oath: "known wolf" on federal radar for previous threats; interviews with Newsweek and the NY Times as some sort of "recruiter" for Americans and other foreign fighters to travel to Ukraine; ties to the Azov Brigade in the Ukraine, a hotbed of nazi-ideology; flew from Hawaii to Florida a few days ago and managed to obtain a rifle in that time - even as a convicted...

I've put on my best Tin Foil Hat over the attempted assassination of President Trump. The article I posted from the NY Times details how a NY Times Reporter in Ukraine came into contact with Ryan Routh for an interview. This reporter details how thru his connections to someone in Afghanistan who had connections in Iran put him onto Ryan Routh. Here's another recent article about the Secret Service upping security around Trump because of an Iranian Plot https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/ap-report-secret-service-boosted-trump-protection-after-iranian-threat Yesterday on the Megyn Kelly Daily Podcast, she talked about allegations that Iran has infiltrated the Secret Service and has a...

This article is about three types of assassination. The first, which President Trump has endured nonstop since he first entered the political arena, is character assassination. The second is legal assassination, sometimes called “lawfare.” The term is appropriate, because it is derived from warfare. This is the attempt to lawlessly, but under the guise of law, bankrupt, ruin, defame and even imprison a dangerous political opponent. In extreme cases, this opponent might even face life imprisonment, which is a legal equivalent of the death penalty. (Murderers are often given the death penalty or life in prison, which some people say...

WASHINGTON, D.C. — With news continuing to filter in about the second assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump, the nation's prominent Democrats expressed relief that Hitler was OK. Following a busy weekend of making public statements and social media posts clearly identifying Trump as "literally Hitler" and telling the country that he posed a grave threat to the existence of the United States, Democratic leaders quickly made it known how glad they were to find out he was unharmed. "We're just glad the greatest threat to democracy is safe," said House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries. "I know just an...

The Trump Rapid Response team emailed out numerous times the Democrats and media used “incendiary rhetoric” against former President Donald Trump.“Thankfully, the would-be assassin was stopped by the heroic action of law enforcement — but make no mistake, this psycho was egged on by the rhetoric and lies that have flowed from Kamala Harris, Democrats, and their Fake News allies for years,” wrote the team.The email has over 50 examples.I’m going to screenshot the email, but link a few more below the pictures.

Martin County Sheriff's Office via AP ========================================================= Fox News has reported that the alleged suspect in the second Trump assassination attempt is Ryan Wesley Routh, as we reported earlier. He allegedly aimed a rifle through the fence on the golf course where Trump was. He was about 300-500 yards away. Law enforcement claimed he had an AK-47 with a scope and a Go-Pro camera at the fence. He also had a bag with ceramic plates. The Secret Service fired at him and he fled in a black SUV. A citizen saw him and took a picture of his license which...

Ryan Wesley Routh, the man named as the suspect in a possible assassination attempt at Donald Trump's Florida golf club, urged Iran to kill the former president in a book he self-published last year. In 'Ukraine's Unwinnable War,' he said he had made a terrible mistake in once voting for Trump, whom he described as a 'buffoon' 'I must take part of the blame for the retarded child we elected for our next president that ended up being brainless, but I am man enough to say that I misjudged and made a terrible mistake and Iran I apologize,' he said,...

Former Secret Service agent, author, and Conservative podcaster Dan Bongino predicted another security “incident” just weeks before the second assassination attempt on former president Donald Trump at his West Palm Beach golf club in Florida on Sunday. In August, Rep. Eli Crane, R-Ariz., asked Bongino, “Is the Secret Service in a better spot today with Director Rowe in charge?” “No, it’s worse,” Bongino replied. He then predicted that “something else” would happen, adding, “I pray to my Lord and savior Jesus Christ that I’m wrong.” “[If] you think this is the last incident, you’re out of your mind,” he said....
