For what little they’re worth, I have three unseemly comments about tonight’s shooting in Butler. The first is: I wonder how long it will be before the nothing-is-as-it-seems junkies decide it’s too much of a coincidence that the shooter went for the one rooftop the Secret Service failed to cover. So the Biden administration must have been in on it. If it’s not on the dark web already, it can’t be too far off.
The second is the disconnect between the Dems Laocooning for the last six months that Trump’s election will be the country’s last, and that Project 2025 is a re-issue of Mein Kampf. Many if not most people believe that had the world known what Hitler had in store for it, a preemptive assassination would have been morally mandatory. And yet every talking head on CNN and MSNBC is falling all over himself bleating his heartfelt relief that Trump survived so unscathed. If I really thought what these people claim to think, wouldn’t it be grief rather than relief that that first shot hadn’t been a centimetre more to the right?
And, finally – and this one is equally predictable – someone who knowingly sacrifices his life, as this man did, for what he took to be a just cause, as this man must have, may be a lot of despicable things. But the one thing he’s not is a coward. That’s the kind of Doublespeak George Orwell’s 1984 was about. I counted seven uses of ‘cowardly’ within the first hour after 9/11. I’m up to three now, and the night is young.

This sort of attack has been called “suicide by police”. Unless the person had an online message history we may never know his motives. But there will be endless speculation, especially if he had any connection to another country like Russia or China or one in the Middle East.

I agree he’s not a coward. However, I am skeptical that he did this out of pure political conviction. He had a bleak choice between living out 60 more years in Butler, Pennsylvania where he was a loser freak or living eternally in history. Brave of him for literally and figuratively pulling the trigger on creating his own life’s meaning. Good thing he likely died before realizing his failure. I suppose everyone gets the remembrance they deserve.

Actually, Crooks wasn’t from Butler. His home was about an hour’s drive south of there. He only came up to Butler because that’s where the rally was. As to whether he failed in his mission, I suppose we’d have to know what that mission was. If it was just suicide by cop then I suppose it wasn’t a failure. Hey, I’m just sayin’.

Thefe is a few people who have been looking into crooks phone calls over the months prior to his attempt and they have found some things that stand out in patterns from calls received but never called and they have a location near a FBI substation , like an office in a DC building. They’re looking into the caller(s) to see if they can get the pings from the mat phones locations over that time to see if there’s more in common.
What I’m going to assume is those that have been investigating will be removed by those who were plotting to remove trump and they’re not to be tiyed with it investigated without backlash I heard if this about 6 months ago and never heard about it again I’ll bet once they disclosed this they were stopped from gathering any more info.
anyone who thinks this was not Biden is simply in denial and can’t accept that our government officials could be ruthless in your face obvious killers!
this was so blatantly mishandled that there’s no other explanation of how this could ever happen with FBI and cua involvec during Bidtns complete authorization of the government. Who can’t believe that Biden would do this, the same guy who stopped any talk of his son or COVID (which he obviously had ready from his buddy who was secretly making it in China) to make sure his agenda kept going , the same group of people who started the fake Russia gate BS.
Look at where the left is right now foolishly trying to remake the entire viter field to represent other countries interests rather than our own real citizens. How’s that going in UK?
why does out government allow this to continue. They’re I viously trying to radically change out country into a failed socialist experiment that’s guaranteed to be unacceptable ond fail if they succeeded. Are people really this dumb?
stop the TDS and think fir 1 second before you lose our country to idiots.
