The right-wing of the DC UniPParty played their role very well.  With mission accomplished, U.S. Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle has resigned her position, following the attempted assassination of President Donald Trump.

(Via NBC) –  In her resignation letter, obtained from a senior official who received it, Cheatle wrote that the “scrutiny over the last week has been intense and will continue to remain as our operational tempo increases.” She added she takes “full responsibility for the security lapse.”

“In light of recent events, it is with a heavy heart that I have made the difficult decision to step down as your Director,” wrote Cheatle, who had led the agency since September 2022.  It’s unclear when her last day will be. (more)

Dept of Homeland Security, Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, appoints Ronald Rowe as his replacement.  Rowe was one of Obama’s foot soldiers who helped create the domestic surveillance and targeting mechanisms for the weaponized Intelligence Community.  Go figure.

“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.”

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.

For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

Well, there’s the answers.  The DNC has announced they will proceed with the roll call vote for nomination next Wednesday [link].  That puts Kamala on track to announce her VP selection around this weekend.  And the cherry on the cake is Eric Holder doing the vetting for the Harris campaign.

Right on track, the process seamless.  Almost as if this was the plan all along. 🙄 lol

July 22 (Reuters) – Former Attorney General Eric Holder and his law firm, Covington & Burling LLP, will conduct vetting of potential running mates for Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign for the U.S. presidency, according to two sources familiar with the matter.

Harris is running for the Democratic presidential nomination after President Joe Biden announced on Sunday he was stepping aside.

A campaign spokesperson for Harris declined to comment. (more)

The top list of the VP possibilities are:

• Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro, • Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, • Arizona Senator Mark Kelly, • Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear, • North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper, • California Gov. Gavin Newsom, • Illinois Governer JB Pritzker, • Maryland Gov. Wes Moore, and • Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg.

Which one do you think Obama will select?

My bet is on Mark Kelly.

During a lengthy interview being widely discussed, Tucker Carlson and Jack Posobiec discuss the Trump assassination effort and the Joe Biden removal operation.

I would caution that multiple political and strategic planning components of the Trump assassination aspect are incorrect. Neither Posobiec or Carlson begin from the factual starting point that removing both Donald Trump and Joe Biden was the original 2024 intent. Once you accept that cornerstone, the house of thought you build changes.
