Two reference points for the dog that didn’t bark.
(1) Not a single, not one – ever, joint press conference by investigative authorities of the Secret Service, DHS, FBI, Local SWAT and State Police. Not a single press conference, to update and reassure the American public. WHY NOT?
(2) Not a single interview with the family of Thomas Matthew Crooks (20). No media satellite trucks camped outside the residence. No man-on-street efforts, nothing. WHY NOT?
The United States Government led by Joe Biden, in combination with the IC, DHS, FBI and their media cohorts, want this failed effort, dismissed, diminished and forgotten.
Take from those two empirical and factual datapoints what you will. Trust your instincts.
Today, the House of Representatives, led by Speaker Mike Johnson and Hakeem Jeffries, announced they are assembling a “Task Force,” top men, to investigate the attempted assassination of President Donald J Trump. [Politico]
WASHINGTON – Speaker Mike Johnson and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries rolled out members of a bipartisan task force Monday to investigate the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump.
“We have the utmost confidence in this bipartisan group of steady, highly qualified, and capable Members of Congress to move quickly to find the facts, ensure accountability, and help make certain such failures never happen again,” Johnson and Jeffries said in a joint statement.
The task force will be led by Rep. Mike Kelly (R-Pa.), who represents Butler, Pennsylvania, the site of the shooting at a campaign rally.
[…] The new group will have control and jurisdiction over any other House investigations. Beyond congressional investigations, the administration is conducting several probes, including through the FBI, an independent panel ordered by President Joe Biden and the Department of Homeland Security inspector general.
In addition to Kelly, the Republicans on the task force will be: Reps. Mark Green (Tenn.), David Joyce (Ohio), Laurel Lee (Fla.), Michael Waltz (Fla.), Clay Higgins (La.) and Pat Fallon (Texas).
Rep. Jason Crow (D-Colo.) will be the top Democrat on the task force. Democratic Reps. Lou Correa (Calif.), Madeleine Dean (Pa.), Chrissy Houlahan (Pa.), Glenn Ivey (Md.) and Jared Moskowitz (Fla.) will also be on the panel. (link)
Speaker Mike Johnson, needs to think very carefully about things…
We have watched violent international politics with a semi-detached view; at least, I will admit that I have.
Watching, looking at the arrest of political opponents; watching assassinations like Shinzo Abe, all from the safety of our devices and the comfort of reference points that always seemed distant, over there, certainly not here.
Perhaps, just perhaps, the manifestation of political wickedness has hit that metastatic phase where every cell and every organ in our global world is now being attacked by a virus no longer contained at origin; I don’t know. What I do know is that our landscape has changed; where we stand as a nation is entirely different, yet We The People seemingly never moved an inch.
It’s almost like we are standing on a stage and the backdrop changed behind us. If we take a national selfie, everything looks completely different. When I look at the resulting picture, I do not like this image of myself contrast against this place, this perspective, and yet… I am exactly the same.
Life has taught me the best thing to do when I feel a sense of rage is to get quiet. Prudence and wisdom teach you to lower the blood flow, evaluate the external and proceed with caution, because the action that flows from the rage mindset generates collateral damage. Serious collateral damage. So, I shut down, walk away, turn my eyes to the truest of all true things, and pray.
There was a time when mules were of great value in the creation of what sustains all human community life. Mules that pulled ploughshares were evaluated with a level of discernment that would rival modern NFL drafts.
Entire communities, often spread miles apart, knew the strength of each other person’s mules. Auctions would bring people from great distances, and there were quiet men of great knowledge who understood the invisible traits that qualified the best mules.
The best, the absolute best, were held with a regard even more valuable than the land they walked. The remarkable thing about these mules was their diversity in physical appearance. Ultimately, what made the great mules of such value was the part that could not be seen, the part the quiet men looked for.
Those mules were like the men who recognized them, and the crowd would whisper to each other in muted tones as they watched the subtle yet deliberate movement of the quiet men with great intensity. Words would be spoken of a silent language that would take place between the quiet men and the mules afore them. There was something invisible being measured and evaluated. Eventually, decisions were made.
The hands behind the plows were ultimately the beneficiaries of the advice from the quiet men, and those calloused hands would become quiet men themselves in later years.
When the collar reached the shoulder, the best mules did not need instruction, they knew what came next. The silent language that transferred from the auction to the destination continued. Over time, the hands atop the plow and the mule became of one purpose. This is when the legends of some mules began.
The best mules had something within them that resolved to the task at hand. The scale and scope of the topsoil was the canvas, but the raw and often harsh task at hand was the real challenge. For some lesser mules the effort required in new ground was too much, but for the best it was just another day; although perhaps a day of week, or month when the bone structure formed the shape of the collar.
The hands upon the plow tested the ability of the mule. It had to be done dispassionately if the family was to achieve success, and ultimately if the community were to thrive.
When the blade was moved a degree deeper, the collar pulled just that much tighter – deeper. The best mules knew what those sensations implied. There were times for looking forward, but when the resistance was the strongest, these were not those times. At these times the mules looked down at only the two feet in front of them, and they focused on those two feet, and then the next, and then the next…. until they felt the pressure subside. Then it was time to turn.
There were lands where no mules could succeed – miles of square acres containing buried rock and dirt compacted over centuries, long before humans started apportioning it. However, there were some mules who had the capability to move that soil, plow through those rocks, and with nothing more than brute force create the opportunity for harvest. This is what the quiet men were looking for. These were the silent questions exchanged.
I think about those quiet mules returning to their stables as the sun dropped, and the feeling of the straps being scraped across the back as they are removed. I think about that silent message as the farmers hand touches the side of the neck with great appreciation. I wonder if the approval connects to the determination that will follow at sunrise. Is this the trait the quiet men were looking for? Is determination the invisible language within that interview, an auction now long in the past? I think it was.
Speaker Mike Johnson needs to think very carefully about things.
The events of the past several weeks have shown us there are harsh landscapes ahead. We are traveling to places that have never been contemplated. We are witnessing things accepted that were always out of bounds. There are no boundaries in this new place. This land is hard, and it will take quiet men with callouses to guide us through it.
It is time for the old mules to revisit the legend of their kin.
It is time for the counsel of quiet men, hard men.
It is a time to remember the purpose of that old collar hanging on the wall.
It is a time for that unspoken language to be understood.
It is time for the old mules to take lead and plow the terrain.
For the nervous insta-selfie readership who are not quite sure what comes next, find an old mule and ask them,…
….”What comes after Amen?”



They know we all know it was a set up and they just don’t care.
It sure is start to look that way.
They are wondering what it will take for us to say anything.
It appears the Communists tried, and failed, to take out one outsized pipeline for our voices. What other pipelines are available to us?
Sometimes actions speak louder than words. Quiet can be interpreted in many ways.
I moved past anger a few years ago. Now it’s calm resolve and executing the mission. So far, so good 👍

They truly underestimate We The People. Our actions are way stronger than our silence. We need to show them that at the polls. Vote MAGA, America First. Eff the elite marxists.
The polls do NOTHING; thought you woulda learned that at least by 2020.
It will take MUCH more than just ‘vote moar harder’ to right this ship.
Love your name 🙂
Thank you.
Take it to the streets, gather and pray, stay for a while quietly, then leave. Then do it again in the days which follow. These are not people who will listen to news analysis or Twitter. Take it to the atreet, each streey in each city and town.
They don’t care that we know everything. They don’t care.
Because they know we can’t do a damn thing about it. They are going to “deep six” this, erase from history, and then laugh in our faces about it.
Mike Kelly is just the guy to make that happen.
Mike Kelly is a RINO. Typical car salesman- talk a great story, but do nothing!
It will go the way of Mandalay Bay.
Mike Kelly is conservative window dressing they drag out to soothe the base.
Mike’s opinion letter, published in the WSJ, supporting the Trans Pacific Partnership has been forgotten by most, but not me. He was my congressman.
He would have voted for it had we not elected President Trump.
Agree! They also know they control all the evidence. Only evidence supporting a lone shooter will be given to the newly formed House Warren Commission! They’re planning on getting kudos from Congress and shutting this down quickly! JMO
A very dangerous time in our nation. When the ruling class no longer cares that we know and are at the “yeah so what are you gonna do about it” stage we are truly in trouble.
They need a few doses of their own medicine.
I honestly do not think they realize what and who was, the one straw too many.
41T too many, going to need 1.5T to finish the year in borrowing. You can not recover from looting the people’s treasury.
Those in charge cannot recover their reputations or the reputations of the government agency or offices they think they control or own.

Trust God. Fear not.
The mind of man plans his way; But the LORD directs his steps. Proverbs 16:9.
Their “non-caring attitude” is the most worrisome part of the whole incident
“Brazen” seems like an inadequate way to describe it
Because they have a plan, and it must be completed no matter what. If they get sloppy? So what they think, it must succeed.
Makes you wonder what they’re planning. I think it’s the plot of the Kingsmen.

Clay Higgins is a great pick
Don’t trust him
Yeah? WHY?
Former Navy Seal Ariz Congressman Eli Crane said on Warroom that Clay Higgins would be a good pick to investigate assassination https://amp.tmz.com/2024/07/22/eli-crane-donald-trump-shooter-roof-water-tower-second-floor-window-secret-service/
That’s good enough for me.
Him maybe, but Walz, no way.
Higgins is the ONLY one on that committee that there is even a modicum of trust. He has been a straight shooter and was a LEO and a SWAT team member.

Why is FoxNews putting on Crazy Kamala Harris Rallies?
Why do they allow
the perverts at the failed and disgraced
Lincoln Project
to advertise on FoxNews?
Even Mr. Kellyanne Conway,
a man so badly hurt and humiliated
by his wife
(she must have done some really NASTY things to him, because he is CRAZY!),
is advertising on FoxNews.
We have to WIN WITHOUT FOX!
President Trump, Sir, BlackRock News hates you and everyone of us.
He already knows he can’t count on Fox News. Did he think suddenly they would play nice?
But wanted a Debate with them?
It’s not news to PDJT & he’s not telling us, we already know.
He’s telling the uninformed.
Remember Fox calling Arizona in 2020 before the results were in?
I stopped watching FOX after the stolen election 4 years ago.
The Fox ship sailed ages ago. Paid opposition. When Tucker flew a little too close to the sun, the Fox pretending was exposed. Turn off Uniparty Television and you’ll find yourself better informed with greater awareness.
Semper Fidelis!
Glad to see he is saying it publicly, but I would have preferred it said about six years ago.
This is the part where I remind everyone Rupert Murdoch personally intervened and demanded FNC call Arizona early.
That action gave the Biden campaign the ability to declare victory, which then allowed the Nsurexion narrative, which has led to everything else. And because I want is said bluntly, I consider the blood in Afghanistan, Ukraine, Israel, the jails of Washington DC, and on Trump’s ear on that man’s hands.
MSNBC is a disgrace, but it wears that disgrace on its sleeve. Only one of those things can be said about FNC.
Maybe you shouldn’t be asking them to do the next debate? 🤔
He has to go where the audience is.
He/we need more converts.
A bigger pool of potential converts exists in the form of podcast audiences, such as Joe Rogan’s.
Did you see the Poll that Fox put out Sunday saying that Camel Ho is beating Trump in like 4 battleground States. They are setting the table for the BIG STEAL. See, even Fox knew Camel Ho would beat Trump.
FNC is corrupted. They are operated by Rupert’s lefty sons, and have Paul Ryan on their Board. Enough said. When I go to bed and feel a need for TV to lull me to sleep, I watch METV or TVLAND. Quick and effective.
BTW, it is 7:52 p m EDT in my time zone. I will hop into bed and put on The Andy Griffith Show. And lull myself to sleep with good thoughts about Americana values.
Try INSP channel if you have DirecTV, lotsa old western series!
I don’t have INSP. I do like Andy Griffith, Gunsmoke, and The Rifleman. Although, I realize The Rifleman is just a Western version of Leave It To Beaver. lol.
Fun Fact: Lachlan Murdock bought the Beverly Hillbillies Mansion (Chartwell, 1937) in cash for I think $150,000,000 about 4 years ago. Sits on 10 acres. There realtor videos on it.
Fox using Mike Johnson, Kevin McCarthy, Lindsey Graham, and Ted Cruz interchangeably for expert analysis speaks volumes of their “credibility”.
PDT’s campaign people need to get some banner planes flying around all the country. I spend a lot of time at the beach, During the 2016 and 2020 election I would see Trump banners fly a few times a day up the coastline and back down the coastline. This year I have seen not one banner plane. A banner plane flying a message to all the seasonal beach workers NO Tax on Tips would have a bigger impact then say an internet ad. People working a seasonal beach job are not on the internet. They are social people who are out and partying and socializing with other seasonal beach workers. Now that summer beach season is winding down his campaign should utilize the digital advertisement road signs. I don’t know who is running his campaign but whoever it is needs to get on the ball. It’s time to start thinking outside the box.
Own the beach friends, own the narrative.
This “shave tail” mule is ready to drag up tents and head south to the Pantanal in Northern Argentina if these devils get four more years. That is if we aren’t nuked in the mean time.
Does Argentina have humidity?
The Pantanal is one of the largest wetlands in the World. This Florida Man will be right at home.
Be careful. The last time I proposed in the Treehouse finding a second, foreign landing pad I got lit up as a non patriot.
Well, we need more fighters not more retreaters.
President Trump isn’t quitting. We shouldn’t quit.
Ma’am I am being priced out of living in the Middle of redneck nowhere, FL. If middle class folks can’t afford to live out here we are in really big trouble. Where is there for me to go? Tejas? Nope. Georgia? Not a chance with the clowns in Atlanta!
Every State is captured by Uniparty defectives in one way or the other. I also have zero “healthcare” and do not qualify for a subsidized plan because I do not check the boxes.
Nobody cares about the soft tissue damage in my spine.
The only way a mid forties white male will get help here is if he is in a wheelchair in Tent City in the woods behind Home Depot(we hide our homeless camps in the woods down here).
Florida is once again teetering on the brink of another massive housing and commercial property crisis. Too bad I am not in the physical condition to start another foreclosure clean out business so everyone’s favorite hedge funds can revamp the properties and rent them to Californians.
Our system as it sits right now is fuct.
There is going to be a gigantic correction and I would just as soon be out in the boonies and warm when it does.
“Come get some”-Ash Williams-Evil Dead 2
Argentina? The Pantanal is mostly in Brasil with a bit in NE Paraguay and Eastern Bolivia. Could you be thinking of the Iberá wetlands of Corrientes Province in NE Argentina?
Must be.
Isn’t the Pantanal in western Brazil spanning the borders with Paraguay and Bolivia?
It’s huge, maybe the liberal retards on National Geographic Channel had no idea what they were talking about.
FYI – in North Argentina it’s called the Parana wetlands. There are also the Iberas wetlands in Argentina.
Ignorance cured.
IDK who watches NatGeo channel cuz I sure don’t. I researched online and checked 5 different websites. The photos were awesome. Lots of wetlands.
That’s what I am after.

There maybe a couple good Republican’s but should have just been, Republicans. What is Johnson trying to do?
Johnson is giving Democrats a platform for gun control and an AR-15 ban! It’s blatantly obvious with the Dems selected.
California Joe: Roger that. Freedom Control is the perfect issue for the Pubs to “unify” with the Dems. “For our safety.”
How do you think he got the job? He out McCarthy’d McCarthy, and without a single defecting R.
These committees are always bipartisan.
But Johnson could have pulled a Pelosi and told Jeffries that there will only be 2 Democrats that Johnson gets to select.
He would never do that. In fact I’m surprised that he didn’t allow democrats to have the majority and appoint a democrat as the chairman.
When agitated or doubtful we pause and ask for God’s guidance for the right thought or action.
They also think we, personally, will roll over, bless their hearts
So far we have. Why shouldn’t they continue think we will roll over?
I recall when Blitzkrieg rolled over huge swaths of Europe, affecting tens of millions who appeared to ‘roll over’ as the juggernaut swallowed them and rolled on by, leaving often barbaric military rule in its wake.
What did they do? We can examine history for the facts.
We’ve been invaded and the Communists have seized power and wielded it to instill fear in the populace to roll over to their domination.
What will we do? What are we doing? How will history reflect upon current events?
Green Dragon 👍
Not to sound unchristian, but I wouldn’t spit on Mike Johnson. He is a black crow in glasses, with nothing but subterfuge in his otherwise vacant soul.
Why TF would he bother including “top” democrats on this panel? He’s such a transparent fool.
Every fraudulent promise he’s made testifies against him. I wish PDT all the best, having to lean so heavily on such a crooked stick.
Don’t feel bad, I curse and spit on the ones that gave us Johnson. At first I supported it big time, but then I realized they didn’t have a plan in place, whether that was by design or stupidity I don’t know. I find Johnson worse than Kevin Luntz.
He’s compromised, just as most—if not all—are. Look at his eyes, they are filled with fear.
Then he should step down, but he can’t give up the promised perks. Politicians have a really hard time finding jobs outside of the Swamp, lobby firms, and media.
Yeah, he should step down. Like Kevin McCarthy stepped down, and we got Mike Johnson. Like John Boehner stepped own, and we got Paul Ryan.
Like Newt Gingrich was replaced by pedo groomer Dennis Hastert.
Sure, Mike Johnson can step down. I’m sure the next Speaker will be one who looks out for our best interests. /
I watched a video today of antigovernment forces in Venezuela shooting at police. The police ran away.

Boulders aplenty in our soil here. Dig the perimeter, push small river rocks (fist-sized) under the boulder, pry it up a little more, insert more small rocks, repeat… Two days later, a 130# person has lifted a 500# boulder to the surface.
“Take from those two empirical and factual datapoints what you will. Trust your instincts.”
I think you put your finger on it with your “[They] want this failed effort, dismissed, diminished and forgotten” as they don’t want people to see Trump as some kind of heroic figure. I think it’s as simple as that.
They are fools if they think they can accomplish that.
Are they not watching the size of his rallies and support grow exponentially.
If Cheney and Kinzinger were still in Congress, Johnson would pick them.
……..perhaps he picked the people they would pick.

Cory Mills and Eli Crane should be on the committee.
Honestly I am not stunned that the GOP doesn’t seem to give a damn.
Scrubbing of Trump assassination attempt on Google says everything.
And how will the mafia deal w/Trump returning to Butler? That will be big news hard to ignore at least for a few minutes.
Google doesn’t have a monopoly on digital memory space. They only show their own asses by that dumb move.
Plenty of other places on the ‘net – and other search engines – to obtain up-to-date assassination investigation info.
Two individuals with impeccable qualifications to investigate the Trump assassination attempt, Arizona Rep. Eli Crane and Florida Rep. Cory Mills, are missing altogether. Crane is an ex-Navy SEAL sniper while Mills is a respected former Army Combat Vet.
Maybe Johnson doesn’t want to find the truth.
He wants to make sure such failures never happen again. I’m just not sure if he’s talking about the failure to protect or the failure to assassinate.

“And one day, too late, your principles, if you were ever sensible of them, all rush in upon you. The burden of self-deception has grown too heavy, and some minor incident, in my case my little boy, hardly more than a baby, saying “Jewish swine,” collapses it all at once, and you see that everything has changed and changed completely under your nose. The world you live in—your nation, your people—is not the world you were born in at all. The forms are all there, all untouched, all reassuring, the houses, the shops, the jobs, the mealtimes, the visits, the concerts, the cinema, the holidays. But the spirit, which you never noticed because you made the lifelong mistake of identifying it with the forms, is changed. Now you live in a world of hate and fear, and the people who hate and fear do not even know it themselves; when everyone is transformed, no one is transformed. Now you live in a system which rules without responsibility even to God. The system itself could not have intended this in the beginning, but in order to sustain itself it was compelled to go all the way.”
Milton Mayer, “They Thought They Were Free”
Ahead of tomorrow’s joint Senate hearing, @ChuckGrassley releases the most detailed information so far about the security failures involved in the assassination attempt against former Pres. Trump — the info dump includes all the materials Grassley and his staff have gathered
Johnson’s move will NOT create trust.
Quite the opposite.
Johnson messed up terribly in not appointing former Navy SEAL, Arizona Representative Eli Crane.
One would think that being an actual qualified sniper would be of no small value in an “investigation”….
Florida Representative Cory Mills was also a sniper in the US Army.
Both of these men are experienced.
And they were left off of this investigation?!?
Look them both up.
Then……wonder why, exactly, they were left out. Yes, they both smell a lot of rats, from what I saw shortly after the assassination attempt on President Trump.
I suspect it’s because there are a lot of rats to be smelled.
This lack of press conferences along with leaving out two actual, you know, SNIPERS (!) from the investigation screams COVER-UP!
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/07/speaker-mike-johnson-sparks-uproar-after-revealing-seven/
“Moreover, two individuals with impeccable qualifications to investigate the Trump assassination attempt, Arizona Rep. Eli Crane and Florida Rep. Cory Mills, are missing altogether. Crane is an ex-Navy SEAL sniper while Mills is a respected former Army Combat Vet.
Was Johnson worried they would explore whether the incident was a set up to have Trump killed as Mills suggested was a possibility earlier this month?”
If you need expertise on shooting, the task force can bring in the very best. The people you want on your task force are people motivated to learn the truth, who also know how to ask smart questions–and know when to ask them.
This isn’t a quest for facts as much as it’s a hunting expedition. And deep state targets fire back!
Lack of transparency, for one of two reasons. Either, it was a fed plan that was unsuccessful. Or if not, they simply don’t want to know.
“No Johnson” Johnson establishes an investigation. Why am I not inspired?
Johnson’s investigation is a platform for an AR-15 ban. Check out the Dems on it!
The Dems will use this platform to blame Trump f0r what ever, the Republicans will quietly agree. I am out of it..could care less what they say…will stick with alternative media.
Today I found myself thinking about Andrew Jackson, the 1st president to have assassination attempt.
BTW many made it known they wished the assassin had succeeded. Sound familar?
He was a democrat that totally pissed off the political establishment by paying off the national debt and refusing to renew the central bank.
I expect NOTHING out of CONgress, they fear President Trump will upset their gravy train that gets them rich.
I remember when JFK was assassinated and “conservatives” in Dallas cheered.
Jackson handled the attempt himself by giving his attacker a caning, until
the President was finally restrained.
The Dickenson duel was also an attempt on Jackson’s life, prior to his presidency, but as he was becoming successful politically.
Dickenson was put up to it by his father-in-law and his pals. Dickenson was an experienced duelist and crack shot, but he went home in an alcohol-filled casket after a painful lingering death, having been shot in the lower extremities by a .70 bullet from close range.
Another example of FAFO from the early 19th century.
Dickinson likely shot in the stomach, although guelists commonly tried to shoot their opponents “through the hips”.
But Dad has spoken!///

According to Benny Homeland Security also practiced shooting at the same place Crooks went.
As I wrote on another thread last week it is quite odd that a licensed mental health professional would be into guns. Fourteen of them no less! As everyone knows the mental health professions are way left and not fond of guns.
I think his dad is a Libertarian.
Maybe John Durham will come out of retirement?
I know that is a jest!
Lol
SC John Durham uncovers dozens of federal crimes by DOJ and FBI Officials for trying to frame President Trump for a crime that never even happened yet fails to file a single criminal charge against any of them???
The New Times got the text messages….
Gunman at Trump Rally Was Often a Step Ahead of the Secret Service
Text messages, obtained exclusively by The Times, indicate that some law enforcement officers were aware of Thomas Crooks earlier than previously known. And he was aware of them.
https://archive.is/5GssJ#selection-707.0-711.178
Still going with the “AR-15-style rifle”
text messages exclusively obtained by The Times…that tells me that The Times was given these messages and instructed by the IC to get this information out; there’s a purpose behind this and it’s related to keeping us guessing and in the dark. It’s all theater.
Excellent sage advice always SD.

David Joyce (OH) would shame Benedict Arnold. In favor of the Jan6 committee fraud, and every grift vote since.. There is no occasion that he does not vote against the interests of American citizens.
That Mike Johnson would select/consent to this roach, makes his sell-out unmistakable.
Just got back from Alaska. The same admiration could be expressed for sled dogs.
Mike Johnson is receiving very poor counsel. He is NOT one of us; regardless of his bold talk – he is too willing to carry on in the “old” ways; compromise, “reach across the aisle” nonsense.
I don’t believe Mike Johnson understands that we are locked in a death struggle. Either we win and the communists who seek to destroy us die, or they win and the world is destroyed.
That presumes Johnson doesn’t know what we’re up against. He does. And has chosen which side he is on. He wouldn’t have won the Speakership if he had chosen our side. He was cast in the role of a lifetime for a political actor. Pretending to be a leading opposition figure, while being on the incumbent team, with just believably enough for the intended opposition audience to not walk out of the theater.
They all think they can carry on as usual, during the REBELLION. And be paid to watch.
I am convinced he is a Democrat
Most of them are really Democrats but they ran for office in White suburban Congressional Districts masquerading as Republicans!
so is this like home grown 9-11 but missed the towers?

It’s like a show trial.
Give me a break.
The truth always surfaces.
The Truth is never told, it is learned. And it will come out, just hope I am around to know the truth of all those involved in this plot.
Glen Beck has a couple of things to say about the investigation:

Why? They do not care. They will not elevate President Trump or his followers to a meaningful status. They have pretended we do not exist and the few that do are problematic. We were a one off.
They tried to kill President Trump which would have killed our movement and now it is all cover up.
your are very correct
Even if he wins (regardless of their cheating) they will initiate a civil war. They always project. I don’t want one, but they sure do. We’re not citizens to them, the media has made that clear. I think it got worse when they started unpersoning vaxx refusers.
.
Their crap can be put down in a heartbeat by the National Guard. Trump will not be so conciliatory next time around. He’s learned.
.
Retired Magistrate here: The movement was here before President Trump and it will be here after President Trump. Right now President Trump is the face of Make America Great Again. However, everyone who wants to Make America Great Again is the movement. Look in the mirror, you are just one of many of who want to move this nation forward to being the country our founders envisioned.
Rah, Rah, Rah, Marcia — you’ve got the winning “face of things.”
I venture to say that with every muck up of their’s thousands more people are coming along side of us.
And they are recognizing the truth of Reagan’s oft-quoted dictum: “Hi, I’m from the government and I’m here to help you.”
Look it up in Paternalism 101.
The commies have made of once stout-hearted men a bunch of pansies.
Problem with their pansies is that they have no will to fight for what’s right, true, noble, and of good report.
Will they fight for what’s retrograde, shameful, disgusting, and evil?
I think many of them will jump ship.
Weeks later a committee is formed?
Isnt a recess right around the corner?
Why cant it be like the j6 committtee with no democrats at all?
Are there going to be criminal referrals of the government criminals to the criminals’ government organizations?
Two Republicans served on the j6 committee: Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger.
Liz Cheyne is not a Republican and she is not welcome in Wyoming!!!
🙂
Democommunist wanna-bes.
“The new group will have control and jurisdiction over any other House investigations”
Dems control the Senate, and therefore scope and subpoenas
Is there is a need to shut down scope and inquiry in the House, without threat to Johnson from overcurious members?
Mike Johnson needs to ponder the words of Hebrews 5:14
“solid food is for the mature,
for those who have their powers of discernment
trained by constant practice to distinguish good from evil.”
Christian discernment comes from constant practice to distinguish good from evil.
He does appear to need to work on his lack of discernment to recognize he is being misled by fellow politicians..
God help us.
The parents are ghosts.
The dad surfaced, but has lawyered up.

From what I have seen they never marked the area off as a crime scene or did the usual crime scene type investigation.
Well, it was a lone shooter named Matthew Crooks and that wraps things up all nice and tidy. Move along.
Maybe Johnson is worried he’ll be next?
The only one he is worried about is the one who holds the chit for his soul. It is Sundance’s warning I pray he heeds.
28 And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather fear him who can destroy both soul and body in hell.
Matthew 10:28.
Joe Biden today: “(Mike Johnson) is dead on arrival.”
Such a crass comment from Pres. Biden — sort of sums up his entire career.
“The task force will be led by Rep. Mike Kelly (R-Pa.), who represents Butler, Pennsylvania, the site of the shooting at a campaign rally.”
Why would one create a conflict of interest such as this, if one’s intentions were serious?
VERY POOR CHOICE!
WOLVERINES
A well-worn conclusion from the UniParty-Media: it was Trump’s fault.
I don’t in the slightest trust Mike Kelly with this all-imporyant role. I sure wish I could.
And know they cover-up investigation they think we’re stupid
a lot of very swampy things have taken place since 2016, we have not responded, they win, if we do respond with any type of force, they will win again, they want it to happen, our best tools are the (#2) ballot box and (#1) land consolidation. yes, they will eventually rig the boxes, but if conservatives all move to the midwest, from the dakota’s to the Gulf(and then some), they could never stuff that box…..
I can’t wrap my head around why THEY chose a naive 20 year old for the assassination attempt. Did they hope it would fail, just/only to get their “message” across????
IMO, they used and abused this kid to make a point. Now the stupid kid is dead, supposedly. Who knows????
They chose him as a patsy, not for the assassination.
👍 👍
It’s not easy to find someone to go kill the President and then get killed.
You’ve got to take what you can get.
Yes sDee, even better, we’ll never even know if it was his bullet that struck the President.
Just thank God that President Trump survived this organized attempt. May President Kenedy rest in peace.
Bingo
The truth that will change the world is not whose bullet grazed our President, only that there was another gun, the true assassin’s gun trained upon him.
I do believe that there are exceptional mules who know the truth.
Exactly! You really can’t be very fussy! LOL
Check—CoLD!
But true.

Crooks didn’t fire the bullet that hit Trump. The SS officer in the window behind him did.
Why does a Democrat voting counselor (Crooks father) purchase an AR15?
73% of Democrats want assault rifles banned.
That’s what sDee meant. I didn’t notice either at first.
He bought the rifle in 2013.
There are some democrats who have AR’s.
For the same reason, maybe even from the same dealer the Sandy Hook shooter Adam Lanza’s mother did.
That Black Swan operation was even stranger than this one, none of it made sense but they expected us to believe it.
“Fool me once…….”
Why was the parent’s house “scrubbed clean”?
When first reports were it was dirty, messy and showed signs of hoarders living there. And the mother was blind.
The officers in the 2nd floor werent at that post when shots were fired. They left to investigate WTF crooks was doing and where he was.
The lone gun man. Just like Lee Harvey Oswald was carefully curated for the “public” role.
And quickly silenced
Immediately
Correct. Thank God the shooter and the patsy shooter both missed.
Yes, it was the second unnamed shooter who was to do the deed. The kid was just a distraction. Maybe someday we’ll know why the second shooter missed. Perhaps it was the hand of God causing the shooter to miss his shot? Will we ever know? Probably not, but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t try.
Some of the 20 year old’s classmates said he was an excellent shot. And that was when he was back in high school.
In the intervening years he and his dad were members of the same nearby shooting club which also had FIB on its rolls.
I think it’s entirely plausible that someone there saw him shooting and expected he could make the shot. Lets face it, if President Trump hadn’t turned his head just at that instant, someone made the shot. Praise God for his infinite mercies.
Sounds like an outline for Johnson’s committee report.
“Lone gunman with rifle experience, slips through lax security due to over-extended Secret Service. We recommended an immediate review and more funding for the Secret Service division.”
More training. Liaison officers to work with state and locals. Radios for the use of state and locals when working security. Training teams to train state and locals in SS communication protocols. A SS Diversity Committee to make sure State and Locals who work security with SS represent the racial and gender makeup of their communities. A committee to investigate the bias against short, squat females in Federal law enforcement. A joint Hollywood/DHS venture highlighting the contributions of gay and transgender SS Agents. A Netflix movie about how a lesbian SS Agent saved President Trump’s life. Cameo appearance by Michelle O.
Where is the proof of the gun club membership?
No, they said he tried out for the team and was a lousy shot. We can’t believe anything the media writes. We have to use our own eyes, and ears.

It is a problem, every single thing you read has a counter to it.
Motive and means.
Most narratives can be dismissed by knowing that our government lies, that each and every branch is wholly corrupt. Who has the greatest motive? To whom does Trump represent an existential threat that must be eliminated at all cost. Who had the power to protect him. Who has the power to kill him and cover it up?
Crooks?
Probably true but the deep state wanted to make sure they succeeded so there was definitely another shooter. Thank God they both missed.
The answer to your question resides in the question – naive.
Narrative shaping. I am not sure why they bother trying here.
I know, right?
I think his counselor parents have a lot to do with it. Not sure what kind of counselors they are or if they are really counselors at all. They may even have connections with the intelligence community or possibly work for them.
It seems very odd to me that this kid was chosen to be the patsy. Maybe his counselor parents did some MKUltra hypnotism stuff on their boy and he became a manchurian candidate of sorts.
Maybe they were hoping he’d go out in a blaze of glory like the so-called “martyrs” in the middle east after blowing themselves up with a suicide vest while taking out as many infidels as possible.
It seems that Molech has claimed another child, willing sacrificed by his parents to rid the world of the evil orange man.
Just rambling thoughts at this point. We really don’t know anything much about his family, their lives, friends, etc so everything is on the table of ideas for me. It also seems the powers that be don’t want us to know anything about them….until they’ve had time to concoct a plausible bio for this family.
There was something on TGP where a reporter of sorts confronted Crook’s parents coming out of a grocery store. His father was rather large around his middle and the mother was very thin with a mask on. Mother came across as nasty. Father said, finally, that they would make a statement when their lawyer said it was ok. So strange no one has investigated the parents.
I didn’t get the sense that was mama Crooks.
I am still not convinced A. He was chosen by THEM and B. there were 2, 3 or 5 gunmen.
Knowing Trump was at great risk of something like this was likely to happen, all they needed to do was leave the door open and let him walk right in. As it stands today, that’s all I’m convinced of.
In a failed attempt that is a “statement” there must be no survivors.
My belief is that members of the administration panicked and either tried to assassinate Trump, or discourage him. Crooks became a “loose end” the moment he agreed to assassinate Trump.
Were Trump to win and start looking at how the Obama administration weaponized the government against American citizens, a lot of Obama/Biden officials might see an extended stay at a federal facility. Same applies to the beneficiaries of gross expenditures and Federal lawsuits.
They can’t afford that.
They did not choose him for the assassination; they chose him to die for the assassination.
rita–A set up to fail of this sort is about 80+% going to take the target out. Touch the top of your ear. It’s not far to your head. A shot that close…I doubt it was meant to miss or it would have missed by more to insure a non hit warning.
Why they used the kid? I have no clue. I never could figure the devil out. So I study the Bible for life & hope.
Now is the public going to wake up to how wicked evil the demonic enemy of freedom that opposes US really is? That is common knowledge among many patriots, but is the % of those who understand how great the danger this nation & the rest of the planet faces full of enough collective faith to fight it off?
Look up the book The Return Of The Gods by Rabbi Jonathan Cann. He has a very good word to bring. Listen to him at YouTube.
Blessings!
Like the US Founders, we ain’t makin’ it through without God, Jesus & the Holy Spirit.
