A defiant Trump after the assassin’s bullet grazed and bloodied his right ear. Raising his fist in the air, he cried out, “Fight, fight, fight!”.
What evidence we have point to a massive failure and complacency of law enforcement and the Secret Service in protecting President Donald Trump at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania on July 13, 2024, and preventing the death of a former fire chief and the injury of two other rally attendants. That’s a charitable characterization. A less charitable explanation is that the assassinaton attempt had been engineered by the Deep State.
Below are the multiple failures and sheer incompetence of supposed professionals:
1. U.S. officials, i.e., the Biden Administration, were warned of a potential Iranian assassination plot against Trump weeks before deadly shooting. (NY Post)
2. 30 minutes before the first shot was fired, cops at the scene noticed the shooter, Thomas Matthew Crooks, clambering into place in plain sight just 130 yards away from the rally stage and even took two photos of him because he was acting suspiciously, sources told WPXI. Meanwhile, almost comically, a counter-sniper team was inside the building on which roof was the assassin. The sniper team was using the building as a “watch post” during the event when Crooks pulled the trigger. (Source: Daily Mail)
3. Attendants at the rally alerted law enforcement to the gunman on the roof of the building at least two minutes before the first shot was fired at Trump, video analyzed by CBS News shows. One witness exclaimed as a law enforcement officer walked around the building, “Look, they’re all pointing. Someone’s on top of the roof. There he is, right there. Right there, see him? He’s laying down.” Another witness gestured to the officer, referring to the gunman: “He’s on the roof … right here, right on the roof.”
4. Passing the buck: A Secret Service source told Scripps News that the agency did not sweep the rooftop from which Crooks shot at former President Donald Trump Saturday, saying it was up to local law enforcement to secure that building as it was outside of the perimeter that the agency would secure. However, a spokesperson for the Pennsylvania State Police said the department had provided “all resources” requested by the Secret Service, including 30 to 40 troopers who helped secure the inside perimeter, but that it “was not responsible for securing” the building or the property on which it resides.
Patrick Yoes, president of the Fraternal Order of Police, America’s largest police group, blasted the Secret Service for trying to shift blame to local police: “Whatever happened in Butler, this was not a failure of the local, state, or federal officers on the ground who responded to the shots fired at former President Trump, they acted heroically and put their lives on the line to protect everyone else at the event. We must recognize that. This is a failure at the management or command level who failed to secure an obvious weakness in the security of this event.” Yoes warned that Secret Service efforts to push blame down to local police for failing to secure a building rooftop used by the shooter would be counterproductive, especially with so many campaign events ahead in the election that will require local, state and federal officials to cooperate.
Lastly, here’s another oddity:
BlackRock Inc. — the world’s largest money manager and ultra-woke investment firm that is benefiting from Biden’s US taxpayers’ multibillion-dollar funding of Ukraine with big government deals to “rebuild” Ukraine — has pulled an ad that briefly featured Thomas Crooks, the 20-year-old assassin. Black Rock said Crooks was a student at Bethel Park High School and appeared in the 2022 ad with other unpaid teens. “In 2022, we ran an ad featuring a teacher from Bethel Park High School, in which several unpaid students briefly appeared in the background, including Thomas Matthew Crooks,” the company said in a statement to Reuters. The 30-second BlackRock TV ad features an AP and honors economics class that Crooks attended at the time. (Source: NY Post)
What a coinkidink!
Not.

From my view, this was a government sponsored “hit” on an opposing candidate. Too many mistakes is not coincidence. It is enemy action.
You are absolutely correct. How could anyone with half a brain come to any other conclusion?
LIHOP
Let it happen on purpose…
What’s up with the misshapen head? Just like David Hogg. Are they breeding these orcs for war?
Now we’re hearing the possibility of two shooters and it’s growing with forensic analysis. Let’s go back to the Reagan attempt. John Judge, who I put on national radio more than once, told us there were two shooters with Reagan and it proved out. Hinckley shot Brady, the police officer and a Secret Service man. But from above came the shot that nearly killed Reagan. Watch this short video of John Judge telling the facts…from 1988:

As the dust settles, I hope the truth becomes more plain to see.
It is absolutely beyond disturbing that news agencies and our own FBI, DOJ, etc. are attempting to pass this horrific act off as just malfeasance or happenstance. I saw one man who attended this rally make the statement that four years ago when he attended the Trump rally in Penn. that every roof top had two, three, four or five agents armed with long guns — where was this response to be seen in this instance. This does not just happen. “They” (Deep State and current administration) have tried every conceivable way to “neutralize” Donald J Trump: prosecute him in front of a Congressional body, drag him thru various courts on made up charges, etc, etc, etc Taking into consideration a natural progression of things–assassinating him was the very next step in their play book. I doubt that their efforts have come to an end, and in fact I watched one YouTube vlogger state that probably the next attempt would be to “poison his food.” and that every vigilant means needed to be employed to stop that from happening. I pray everyday that the Heavens will intercede to preserve DJT and to watch over America. As it is, we really are in Deep Do-Do, trying to handle this menace on our own!
They could have shot and disabled Crooks, but they wanted him dead, because dead people don’t talk. How nice, they even left him a ladder so he could easily climb to the roof that should have been guarded by Secret Service.
If you watch the video and look to the right of Trump is the second in command of the SS she knows its about to happen. Watch her she has her camera on her phone ready right before the shooting, she gets ready and slides down some before any shots rang out. She is the lady sitting behind the woman with the sign that says fire biden in her hand just look behind her and watch the woman with the phone up what she does before any shots are fired…….She is the 2nd in command of the SS.
Then the fact that they knew there was a threat 45 mins before Trump came out of the holding area. They never take a POTUS out of holding if the know there is a threat and they did.
So do your own home work and look at every shot you can see on the videos then make your own assumptions but this was a state organized hit if not they knew it and just allowed it to happen.
One of the saddest day in our modern history of this Great Nation. This is being cut and snipped in the SS office so they can CYA but no way they are getting out of this. This time to much evidence to get them.
Wow. I didn’t know that woman is the 2nd in command at the Secret Service. Noteworthy indeed.
Don’t know what they (the SS and their totally unqualified head–can’t spell her name “Cheatle”)…will come up with–besides a slanted roof & that “locals were in charge of the President’s safety.” I just want to let them twist in the wind & try to blame everyone else until they are disproved on all of their twistings & she is fired or forced to resign. The Secret Service has ONE JOB—-to protect the high level figures of our elected & potential government: the POTUS, & past POTUS & any family members of those who qualify, & presidential candidates (of which Biden’s admin refused Robert Kennedy Jr. until the assassination attempt on Trump…a former POTUS who was automatically supposed to be protected..& then doubly…a POTUS candidate for his opposing party…which they most demonstrably did NOT–on camera–in front of a whole nation of viewers. ).
At the very least, the Advanced Team of the SS were not just “remiss” but complete failures and should be FIRED, along with their dismal, unqualified, failure of a chief. Is Trump going to have to hire his own private security? Had I his money & knowing the record & intent of the DC Swamp….I would if I was going to keep on running for POTUS…& then, even thereafter if elected & I wanted a chance to stay alive. OH yes, we’ve come to this in the USA now in the DC Swamp. I think even the rest of the world sees it/understands it now.
