    Surprised no one started a thread on this.

    Shots fired, Trump was near, it was on his golf course.

      Oh no, SOMEONE doesn't want him to be President- it's an INSIDE JOB, TRUST ME.

        The conspiracy theories are already on adrenaline... this is like adding a line of ____:

        Here we go: Yet another Trump shooting suspect who appeared in a globalist commercial.

        Ryan Routh was in a Pro-Ukraine propaganda video.

        Thomas Crooks was in a Blackrock commercial.

          For me, the bigger question is whether the Secret Service is just incompetent or if this IS an inside job. It's hard to set aside the conspiracies when you miss an obvious roof in clear sight of Trump and no one's minding the holes before and after the one Trump's at. Just makes no sense to me.

            Of course, it is an INSIDE job.   There are those in power who odiously hate Trump.   They have such a vitriolic hatred of Trump that is bordered on the demoniacally fanatical.   I have never seen such a President hated, even Nixon wasn't this hated.

              The hatred is for what he represents and always has been.

              He is the people's FU to the corrupt cabal that has been draining our country of wealth, resources (heck the Clintons sold Russia uranium) and stripping its people of decency and integrity.

                In this situation, you may get something, as Florida/DeSantis is going to pursue an investigation in earnest... which will make the job of the FBI to make things disappear difficult.

      At this rate, I wouldn't even go outside unless I had to if I was former President Trump.  Sheesh.  I'm not a Trump supporter, but I do think it would be a mistake if he got assassinated.  If he gets shot, they'll only make him a martyr, and we all saw what happened when people thought the establishment screwed Trump out of the last election on January 6 a few years ago.   I foresee a similar event happening if any Trump assassination is successful this year.  Seriously, Joe Biden even said it best.  The best way to beat Trump is throught he polls.  Not with violence.

        The goal of "The Left" has been exposed by, of all things, a comedy that is now out in theatres.  It has been blacklisted by the MSM they will not review it or talk about it, but it is currently #3 in America today.

        Am I Racist?
        https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=13loW7C5CcI

        The review above tells about it, there is a clip in that review where a woman states what we now know the goal of the Biden/Harris Administration (and those faithful supporting it) has always been:

        "The entire system has to burn. I'm not going to say we need to save this country, this country is not worth saving."

        That is what those who support the current Administration, the DEI efforts, the endless mass immigration must believe.

        They are engineering the destruction of America... plain and simple.

        That is what is at the heart of it all.... the war with Russia, the flight from Afghanistan leaving 100 Billion worth of Military equipment, financing Iran's war of terror against the West... all of it is connected to a cabal of people in control of America that are determined to destroy it.

                I am constantly liking or loving, and sharing, his content on social  media.
                He has a very dry sense of humor which works in getting his point across. He's the real deal.

I just hope more American's will wake up and vote for the change Trump is offering.  I am very biased when it comes to disliking what most left are pushing. We need to boot this bunch out of Washington. My God a second attempt. Can't believe this is happened twice.

      Cheering for violence against anyone, regardless of political views, undermines the principles of a respectful and democratic society. Our democracy has taken a beating in the last few years. Hopefully, it will survive.

      Encouraging harm or celebrating violence has only deepened the divisions and contributed to a toxic sick environment.  I mean I guess all one can say is consider the source, and really, it sickens me, but in no way does it surprise me.  Good is bad -- Bad is good...

    Would-be Trump assassin ID’d as Ryan Routh

    Routh is the owner of Camp Box Honolulu, a shed building company with few positive reviews. While Routh hadn’t posted on his X account in a year, he frequently criticized politicians including Trump, current President Joe Biden, and celebrities like Bruno Mars.
    Many of his replies are nonsensical, including one directed towards X’s owner Elon Musk, in which he seemed to entertain purchasing a rocket from the billionaire. “I would like to buy a rocket from you. I wish to load it with a warhead for Putin’s Black Sea mansion bunker to end him. Can you give me a price please. It can be old and used as not returning,” Routh wrote.

    Routh was a supporter of Vivek Ramaswamy and Nikki Haley, according to one of his posts in which he encouraged the Republican presidential candidates to continue their races. “You cannot quit. Why. You must stay on the ballot to the end. You must fight. You must continue giving speeches and push all the way to election day no matter the election results. Do not give in. Join Nikki and keep working. Never give up,” he wrote

    He is very dangerous to those who want war, mayhem, killing, destruction, power and money. Of course, they are willing to kill him to get him out of the picture.
    Man, I would be careful if I were him.
    He is not afraid of death, however.
    He is the type to say, "Give me liberty, or give me death."
    The world will mourn at his death.
    Although, I have heard that many don't understand or appreciate him in Europe, either.

      I saw on the news that Florida Governor Ron Desantis is going to investigate the second assassination attempt on President Donald Trump.

      The logic makes sense.  How can federal agencies that are trying to prosecute President Donald Trump perform a fair investigation or prosecution?

      I think Ron Desantis has some serious stones.

      Lots of things don't make sense.

      When the assassin was captured, the police said he was extremely calm.  He had just tried to kill one of the most well-known individuals on the planet.  A police officer said the assassin acted like he didn't have a worry.

      The other question raised is how does this man get his money?  Who is funding him?  There is no work history listed.

      These are some serious questions that need to be answered.

Maybe there was no help? Same old same old.  These things are a fact of life. This is America. But we have to get over it, we have to move forward

          I think we need to seriously investigate this man.  Too many questions with him.  No idea how he made his money or where he got his funds.  Why was he in Ukraine recruiting people for their army?  The Ukrainians had people doing this thing, I want to know if he as associated with the Ukrainian government.  They didn't want just anybody on their front lines.  There was a process in place.

          The police were amazed at how calm he was during the arrest.  That is odd behavior.

          Either he is very clever or the secret service is very bad at their job to have let this happen.

          An in-depth investigation needs to be done.

            The man has an extensive criminal history dating back to the 1990s.

            In 2002, he was convicted in Greensboro, North Carolina, for possession of fully automatic machine gun.

            A December 2002 story in the Greensboro News & Record recounts an incident in which Routh was pulled over during a traffic stop on a Sunday night. He "put his hand on a firearm" and drove to his roofing business, where he barricaded himself inside for three hours with  a "fully automatic machine gun,"

            In March 2010, he was convicted in North Carolina of multiple counts of possession of stolen goods.

            In 2019, the FBI also received a tip that Routh was a felon in possession of a firearm.

            He visited Ukraine after Russia's full invasion and tried to recruit volunteers to fight for Kyiv. The International Legion of foreign fighters said he was never a member, and one volunteer stated he was a hindrance during his visit.

            A representative from Ukraine's foreign legion said  that Routh had reached out to it several times online but "was never part of the legion and didn't cooperate with us in any way."

            "The best way to describe his messages is — delusional ideas," said Oleksandr Shaguri, an officer of the Foreigners Coordination Department of the Land Forces Command.

            He appeared to have little patience for anyone who got in his way. When an American foreign fighter seemed to talk down to him in a Facebook message he shared with The New York Times, Mr. Routh said, “he needs to be shot.”

            His X / Twitter account was riddled  with delusional posts. Mostly centering on his own delusions of grandeur.   He tweeted repeatedly at  Kim Jong Un. In one tweet, Routh wrote that “I would like to invite you to Hawaii for vacation. We would love to have you here and entertain you… I (am) a leader here and can arrange the whole trip. Please come.”

            The man was no stranger to social media and other media for decades.  He's left a path of crazy.   Just another unbalanced American with a gun.

      The behavior of the biden administration only fuels the fires of suspicion.  Now...democrats want to know what is going on.

      "Top Senate Democrat 'angry' over Biden-Harris admin 'stonewalling' after Trump assassination attempts
      Dem Sen Richard Blumenthal says DHS has almost been 'derelict in its duty'

      A top Senate Democrat blasted the Biden-Harris administration for "stonewalling" in response to requests for information on the assassination attempts on former President Trump and the potential failures of the U.S. Secret Service.

      Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., chairman of the Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations (PSI) within the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee (HSGAC), said the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) was "almost derelict in its duty by resisting our requests for documents, evidence and information that are necessary to investigate."

      The Democrat reiterated his disappointment in the department, and added that he has become "angry" that DHS has not been more "forthcoming."

      The Democrat foreshadowed potential subpoenas being used in the future, telling reporters on Monday, "We may need to require more cooperation from them. And we have the power to do so through the compulsory process. In other words, the subpoena power."

      Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., PSI ranking member, echoed Blumenthal's characterization of the DHS and its lack of transparency, claiming, "They're holding all their cards close to the vest."

      In fact, he said their withholding of information is "driving suspicion and driving conspiracy theories."

      As for his Democratic counterpart on the PSI and HSGAC, Chairman Gary Peters, D-Mich., Johnson said, "I hope they're getting frustrated."

      The Secret Service did not immediately provide comment to Fox News Digital.

      On Sunday, the Secret Service opened fire at Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida, after seeing a suspect raising a weapon. The suspect fled the scene in a black Nissan SUV but was apprehended by authorities. "

        It’s understandable why there would be big concerns and frustrations about the level of transparency and cooperation from the Biden/Harris, especially given the serious nature of the situation involving assassination attempts and on top of that, potential failures within the Secret Service, once again. The need for clarity and accountability is paramount at this point,  and the frustration expressed by Sen. Blumenthal and others highlights the importance of speedy investigations and open communication.   If the DHS and Secret Service are perceived as withholding critical information, it can certainly fuel suspicion and drive all kinds of conspiracy theories, which makes it even more crucial for them to address these concerns transparently.
