In an effort to keep the Daily Open Thread a little more open topic we are going to start a new daily thread for “Presidential Politics”. Please use this thread to post anything relating to the JoeBama Administration and Presidency.
“This is no small thing, to restore a republic after it has fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may be that our task is impossible. Yet, if we do not try then how will we know it can’t be done? And if we do not try, it most certainly won’t be done. The Founders’ Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, will be lost.”
“But I tell you this: We will not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we will make with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from that day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.”
This thread will refresh daily and appear above the Open Discussion Thread.

Audio forensics suggest as many as three weapons fired at Trump rally
Excerpt:
Forensic analysis suggests that as many as three weapons were fired at the Trump rally in Butler, Pennsylvania on Saturday.
The FBI said Sunday that the shooter acted alone.
The first three shots were consistent with alleged weapon A, the next five were consistent with alleged weapon B, and the final “acoustic impulse” was emitted by a possible weapon C, per audio analysis by Catalin Grigoras, director of the National Center for Media Forensics at the University of Colorado in Denver, and Cole Whitecotton, Senior Professional Research Associate at the same institution.

the assassin, and the two counter-snipers
The patsy, the assassin, and the cleaner.
yep
My take –
Neither of the two roof counter-snipers (team A) get off a shot, at least in the video footage that’s out there. No recoil from an actual shot from either, and tripod guy’s rifle never settles on to a target after his flinch.
While shit-bag Crooks is taking his shot or shots at PDJT, one round killing a bystander,
Counter-sniper team B takes a head-shot at PDJT and almost kills him, and the other sniper at post takes out Crooks.
Audio forensic professor from Montana St. also believes there was possibly another shooter from farther away. Perhaps Crooks was just a patsy to get the SS and police to NOT look at who the real killer was.
dplmont posted this at around 9:30.
Professor Maher from Montana State Univ is an audio forensics expert who stated that based on the sounds of the shots, they came from 330 to 390 yards away. But the shooter was only 130 yards away. Further, while he said the first three shots came from the same firearm there may have been another firearm used on other shots based on audio forensics. Other than a few Montana news articles, this story is not in the press. Strange and something to check out further.
Counter sniper team B is at the same location as Crooks.
Audio forensics are very telling, very revealing.

Just spoke on the phone to Ambassador Kip Tom, who was sitting in the front row at the Trump rally. He told me he believes there were two shooters, saying shots at President Trump came from different directions. He also saw others get hit. He also said he saw “gun smoke.”

I guess DEI has it’s advantages. Millenial DEI assasins suck at that just like when they try to enter real life!!!
Potatus: “Can’t any of my people put him in the Bullseye?,… No Joke!”
Two or three of the DEI SS Gals at the SUV when PDJ Trump is being loaded in are all intently looking to their Left, opposite from Crooks position,…. as if they are hearing shot(s) from the Trump’s right at the podium. Crooks shot from his left. Hmmm, something made them all look that way,… right Dir Cheatle?
Makes you wonder about posters saying there was a woman a FOX news-reporter was interviewing who said there was a gunman on the roof and another one (she pointed) to a water tower.
The FOX woman turned around and LEFT!
We should “simply, expect” that the Deep State planned this entire thing very carefully. Most certainly, there was more than one “shooter.” We already know that “the Press” was filming everything this day – even though “the Press” customarily avoided everything. (Why was “the BBC” here? Yet, they were.)
This was supposed to be “the things that we pore over endlessly,” now that our Champion is “comfortably dead.” The entire “MAGA Movement” was supposed to have been decisively crushed last Saturday, with brutal(!) mop-up to follow.
“What went wrong?” God.
A silver lining to our government’s incompetence, too.
Yep what an odd occurrence for all the major networks to have their lead reporters /anchors in the studio on Saturday Night. Like they expected a big story?
Oh no! A loan nut gunman.SNARC. Just like JFK in Dallas. Totally not possible. And they made sure the patsy who they would blame died so he couldn’t talk. Just like in Dallas in 1963.
Several big-shot Democrats has told the news media that the picture of Biden’s candidacy would be clear by Sunday!
Imagine that
Looking at Google Earth, the best place for another sniper would be M&R Power Equipment Group (Kubota tractor dealer) that’s across the street. Snipers there would have cover of the sign frontage on the building (look at the street view) and the sun would be behind them where people at the mall wouldn’t see them because they would be looking into the sun – perfect!! They close at noon on Saturdays.

Surprised he didn’t dust off the ‘Uncle Tom’ moniker.
That’s because he’s a racist asshole.
They say the election season is somewhat like a sports tournament. Survive and advance. The last several days for President Trump has literally been just that —
“Survive and Add Vance”
😀🇺🇸
I’m trying to pretend JD Vance isn’t on the ticket.
Great!! Then in November you can just vote for PDJT!! Good for you!!!
2028 isn’t that far away. Hang in there!! In 4 years you won’t have Trump!!
Yup
🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂
ha ha Where’s Wordman on this?
Right above you! lol
I thought of this word play last night and just scoured the whole internet for this exact phrase. I thought it was a slam-dunk headline, but you were the only person to write it. Well done, FreedomNinja.
US authorities obtained intelligence from a human source in recent weeks on a plot by Iran to try to assassinate Donald Trump, a development that led to the Secret Service increasing security around the former president in recent weeks, multiple people briefed on the matter told CNN.
There’s no indication that Thomas Matthew Crooks, the would-be assassin who attempted to kill the former president on Saturday, was connected to the plot, the sources said.
The existence of the intelligence threat from a hostile foreign intelligence agency — and the enhanced security for Trump — raises new questions about the security lapses at the Saturday rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, and how a 20-year-old man managed to access a nearby rooftop to fire shots that injured the former president.

I say smoke
You say mirrors
Smoke
Mirrors
Bravo Sierra
Crooks was cover for the shooter inside the building. Prove me wrong. I want to know who was in the building, what kind of weapons they had and did ALL the bullets recovered match Crooks gun.
This was my thought as I fell asleep last night. An opening in the side of the building below the LOS from Crooks to PDJT. Acoustics may not allow for it however.
That was increased security?? Come on man!!!
Iran plot = shiney thing
But no one believes the liars anymore. That was Plan B, can’t wait to see Plan C in October.
Whatever plan C is, I hope it fails too.
Ok, so if we’ve leaned anything from Sundance over the years, CNN = SD = CIA Pravda. Therefore, it was a CIA hit-job.
Yeah, I know Treepers…”tell me something I didn’t already know” 😉.
I say this is a bunch of BS.
Biden admin flying migrants from overwhelmed California to Texas after Gov. Abbott’s crackdown deterred crossings — at $80K per flight.
https://nypost.com/2024/07/15/us-news/biden-admin-flying-migrants-from-overwhelmed-california-to-texas-after-gov-abbotts-crackdown-deterred-crossings/
I don’t know why they don’t surround the airports and refuse to let them disappear into the surrounding areas. Hold them until ICE finally shows up.
Ok Governor Abbott, your turn. Fill airplanes and drop them off in deep South America. Americans will donate.
What I want to know is
If the building the sniper was on and the same building was supposed to be full of police and 3 snipers, why the hell isn’t the roof of the building not full of holes??? Obviously I need to teach those idiots how to shoot a weapon. That roof should have looked like Swiss cheese.
Something smells big time.
A roof that sniper was on was a 3/12 pitch. A three year could run up and down it. The SS director is full of shit.
Was that were the donuts and coffee was put out for the so called security?
I truly think there is a huge bet amongst the Biden people….who can tell the most outrageous lie on TV or at a House committee hearing.
I think the SS Director Kimberly Cheatle “sloped roof” and “the border is safe” Mayorkas are in a tie.
They just laugh in our face. They know they are protected.
Surprised TPTB didn’t give Patsy Crooks a folding sports chair and an ice chest while he waited on that hot roof in 95 degree heat that made him so jumpy,… he missed. Maybe next time, eh guys?
OMG you’re gonna break the internet with that meme. Hahaha

Yes, Vance was assigned to the Public Affairs section of the 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing while in Iraq.
I’m starting to think Vance may be OK.
He’s getting quite the list of all the right haters. And in just 24 hrs!
My single operating principle – whatever the people who continuously tell me they hate me are ballyhooing about, that’s the thing I should pay attention to. Whatever bus they are on I’m off. Whatever/whomever they oppose, I need to consider.

The image of President Trump’s fist pumping “Fight, Fight, Fight” has had to scare the crap out the yellow zone leadership (EU, Australia, New Zealand etc.). The blinders are off, they know without a doubt that President Trump is not going to be one to play their games. When President Trump makes a demand of them, they will piss their panties. In regards to assassination worries, Candidate Trump has the rest of the yellow zone globalist to contend with now.

5 UNANSWERED QUESTIONS ABOUT TRUMP’S AS S*S SIN AT I*N ATTEMPT
1) WHO was the woman appearing to yell would-be as *asins name?
2) WHY does 20 year old Crooks have ZERO Social Media?
3) WHY did the Secret Service rip off Trump’s shoes?
4) WHY did the Secret Service allow Crooks to evade them 3 times before he fired?
5) WHO was the woman behind Trump and was Crooks acting alone?
Any answers? Especially about the shoes??

Have you noticed how they are toning it down….
History for idiots !!! Go read the history and you will discover that everything the NAZI’s did in that first year was actually done by previous Weimer administrations, from banning other political parties, censoring the press and running the country under a state of emergency. In fact, when the Nazis took power they were actually on the down-slope of democratic appeal. It was the Reichstag fire that allowed them to ban the communist party (something that was done by previous administrations) and run the government under a state of emergency, also previously done. In fact, the world elites were so enamored with the Nazi movement that they held both the Summer and Winter Olympics in Germany in 1936 with Hitler as Time Magazine’s “Man of the Year”.
We could just as easily use Lenin and Stalin as examples of what befalls a country every time a non-democratic technocratic elite takes power, but we would humiliate ourselves by proposing something so dumb.
I am so sick of this schtick being used as an argument against democratic populism. (sigh)
So why did he not “do it” when he was first elected? Why keep his promises? Why wait to be reelected?

Biden admin still won’t acknowledge Iran role in October 7 massacre, so why leak Iran is trying to kill DJT? To obscure fact it’s Biden voters who cause biggest threat to Trump’s life and American peace.
No this is a garbage report. They didn’t surge support for Trump’s SS detail, they thinned it out. This is designed to cover for massive SS failure, likely leaked by director’s office.

So California just made it illegal to notify parents, if a child thinks it is a different gender.
Surveys showed that a “large majority” of Californians opposed such a law, but who cares what they think? The AGENDA is everything, and voters do not know what is good for them.
And so, will Californians boot these “lawmakers” out of office in the next election? OR will they keep returning the DEMS to office?

Biden set to announce support for major Supreme Court changes
Excerpt:
President Biden is finalizing plans to endorse major changes to the Supreme Court in the coming weeks, including proposals for legislation to establish term limits for the justices and an enforceable ethics code, according to two people briefed on the plans.
He is also weighing whether to call for a constitutional amendment to eliminate broad immunity for presidents and other constitutional officeholders…
https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/07/16/biden-supreme-court-reforms
Jonathan Turley
@JonathanTurley
The Washington Post is reporting that President Biden is going to cave to the far left in demanding “reforms” of the Supreme Court, including term limits. The political calculus is clear, but the constitutional means may prove more challenging…
…Law professors have for years insisted that the Court had to be changed to push through a legal agenda. Years ago, Harvard professor Michael Klarman supported court packing and insisted that Democrats can change the system to guarantee Republicans “will never win another election.” However, Klarman warned “the Supreme Court could strike down everything I just described” so the court must be changed to allow these changes to occur.
…President Biden moving to reportedly impose term limits in a close election only reinforces the view that politics not principle are again driving his decisions. If the President had a ten-point margin, the Supreme Court would likely be safe for another four years.
5:55 PM · Jul 16, 2024
Biden can demand all he wants.
But his diaper is still full, and no one is listening anymore.
We can’t get to January 20 fast enough!
Unbelievable. First he’s doing his fake call for civility, now he wants to destroy what’s left of the court. Who’s going to enforce the ethics code? Jack Smith?
Two of these blatantly illegal cases against President Trump stopped in the last two days. Toning down the warfare hoping we’ll forget? Give an olive branch with one hand while taking up a new club with the other?
Meanwhile it appears that the over 8-year long attack on America has culminated in an assassination attempt that was, at minimum, allowed by incompetence. We’ve seen 8 years of this and it’s malice, not neglect. We can hardly imagine where this country would be today if this plot had succeeded.

Trump’s statement…
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/07/archbishop-carlo-maria-vigano-statement-assassination-attempt-president/
“As a reminder, Doug Leone of Sequoia Capital publicly voiced his support for Trump 6 weeks ago.
Silicon Valley has shifted.”….
Silicon Valley is wholly dependent on the Deep State and neo-fascist model of funding. They are shifting to Trump to coop MAGA and the populist movement.
Vance is their putrid Trojan horse.
What could go right?
The Democrat DOJ, FTC, SEC and EEOC have set their sights on Apple, Amazon, Google, Tesla and NVDA in their latest extortion attempts.
Maybe, Big Tech sees that Republicans are a better option?
Was Sequoia Capital the firm that was tied to the Chinese and also who was tied to McCarthy?

The Telegraph – UK
Boris Johnson urges Trump to stand by Ukraine in one-on-one meeting
[…]The former prime minister, who enjoys warm relations with his former counterpart, shared an image of himself posing with Trump on Tuesday.
Mr Johnson said: “Great to meet president Trump who is on top form after the shameful attempt on his life.
“We discussed Ukraine and I have no doubt that he will be strong and decisive in supporting that country and defending democracy.”
[…]America’s investment in Ukraine’s defences represents value for money, compared with the cost of countering an emboldened Moscow.

Did they discuss how Boris torpedoed peace talks ? 🤔
Boris couldn’t effectively manage the United Kingdom and he’s butting into the Ukraine and the United States?
Who’s that sloppy bum next to the President?
Buy a freaking comb.
Then suit up Boris. You’re not getting my son for your stupid war.
I hope he told Boris that America is FIRST and we don’t want a democracy since our constitutional Republic is better.

Dem Senator Bob Menendez Found Guilty Of Accepting Cash, Gold, Benz Bribes
https://www.zerohedge.com/political/dem-senator-bob-menendez-found-guilty-accepting-cash-gold-benz-bribes
The Bidens and Clintons are so much more compromised so it isn’t “Menendez got caught and they didn’t”. Menendez stepped over some line and a message is being sent, but what line did he step over???
It is important because it is reminding everyone in the Senate & Congress to stay in line …and to stay in line for what?
He offended one of the demons. Just ask Eric Adams and his staffer.
Menendez really had to piss-off Obama really bad. After his acquittal in NJ they ginned up charges in New York where he doesn’t live or work then managed to get a real Bolshevik Judge assigned to the case.
What I want to know is how do Democrat prosecutors always get the right Bolshevik judges “RANDOMLY” assigned to cases???

Whoopi Goldberg suspended from ‘The View’ after claim Holocaust was ‘not about race’
February 1, 2022
Whoopi Goldberg has been suspended from ABC’s talk show “The View” for two weeks after claiming on the show that the Holocaust was “not about race” but rather “about man’s inhumanity to man” — comments that sparked widespread outrage from viewers and members of the Jewish community.
“Effective immediately, I am suspending Whoopi Goldberg for two weeks for her wrong and hurtful comments,” Kim Godwin, president of ABC News, said in a statement Tuesday.
“While Whoopi has apologized, I’ve asked her to take time to reflect and learn about the impact of her comments.
The entire ABC News organization stands in solidarity with our Jewish colleagues, friends, family and communities.”
