At today’s House Homeland Security Committee hearing, Rep. Eli Crane (R-AZ) questioned the Commissioner of the Pennsylvania State Police, Christopher Paris, about a video he took of the Butler Township location of the assassination attempt against former President Trump.

Toward the end of his questioning, Representative Crane says he has received information that Thomas Crook’s house was scrubbed, cleaned and even silverware removed, prior to the investigative units arriving. Seems odd. WATCH:

A short background detail.  Almost no one knows this, but Chuck Grassley has the best research and legislative staff in all of Washington, DC.  Grassley’s guys are quick into the silos and understand how to stealth navigate through the system of compartmentalization that exists. [Every republican in the intel sphere will admit this] This video footage being retrieved and released specifically by Grassley’s team does not surprise me.  Great job Team Grassley.

In this footage, release by Senator Grassley via his X-Account, you will see conversation with snipers, state police, local LEO and Secret Service.  Senator Grassley communicates the following message to accompany the release:

“SENSITIVE CONTENT: July 13 Bodycam footage provides more info than Secret Service will share w America We NEED detailed answers ASAP on security failures TRANSPARENCY BRINGS ACCOUNTABILITY. Vid obtained from Beaver Co Emergency Services Unit in compliance w congressional requests.”

Shortly after Grassley’s team released the video, it was removed from Twitter – but not before it was captured for sharing by other users.

Took pictures and “called it out” sometime before he took a shot at President Trump

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.

Representative Mike Waltz (R-FL) questions Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle in a House Oversight hearing Monday on the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump at a July 13 campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.

Representative Waltz points out “the dog that didn’t bark.”  WATCH: (just hit play)

♦ Where are the official 10:00am press briefing updates every day on the investigation?

♦ Where are the official press conferences from the Secret Service, FBI and law enforcement answering questions and providing information from the prior days investigative results?

♦ Where are the organized and official updates to let the American people know what has been found out about the assassination attempt on President Donald Trump?

Not surprisingly, a few people viewed my research presentation of JD Vance through a prism of negativity. [SEE HERE] We have many new readers who are not as in-tune with the details of how the bad parts of the DC surveillance state work.  So, let me take you behind the scenes a little and expand for context.

Nothing written about the data set, the facts within the JD Vance storyline, is incorrect.  Everything is cited, accurate and factually true. However, when you get into the intent and consequence part, that’s when people start to become emotional.  Some clarity is needed.

Commenter Freedom Ring provides a good example.  FR says, “JD has an association with Theil [sp?] & Musk; this could be worded to be a positive or negative, but the article paints it as a negative.”

This is correct. The research article positions the relationship between JD Vance and Peter Thiel as a serious challenge, here’s why.

Since his original endorsement of Donald Trump in 2016, a good thing, billionaire tech executive Peter Thiel has expanded his company, Palantir Technology, to be the leading edge of a data-processing system.  The Palantir tech is designed to use artificial intelligence (AI) to crawl through massive sets of surveillance data, phone data, facial recognition data, metadata (writ large) etc.

In essence Palantir Tech is receiving government contracts (Defense and Intel) to use the Palantir AI tools to analyze/filter a massive amount of electronic data, and take action based on results from the data, or what might be called SIGNIT (Signals Intelligence).  There are billions at stake in this relationship.

In short, Thiel has a vested financial interest in providing AI surveillance filtration tools to the U.S. government.

Ok fine. That’s just a simple acceptance of what Thiel’s company does now. And Thiel recruited JD Vance back in 2012/2013 while at Yale law school, and personally financed JD’s entry into the world of politics in 2020/2021.  I won’t repeat all the citations but suffice to say, without Thiel there is no Senator/VP Vance.  Thiel leveraged his relationship with Donald Trump to get JD Vance the Ohio primary endorsement in 2022, and the rest is history.  Fair enough. Nothing disputed.

Here’s where things get sticky….

Thiel’s company Palantir Tech provides the AI metadata analytic tools used by the U.S. government in their national security efforts.  The government access to that metadata comes, in part, as an outcome of the legislative FISA authorization.  As a consequence, eliminating, say… FISA(702) surveillance processes, is against the financial interests of Peter Thiel.  If the U.S. government cannot access the dataset, the U.S. govt doesn’t need Palantir’s AI filtration tech.  That’s just the nature of the relationship.

The biggest question inside the investigation of the Trump assassination attempt, is the thing no one has mentioned.  Why have there been no daily press briefings?

♦ Where are the official 10:00am press briefing updates every day on the investigation?

♦ Where are the official press conferences from the Secret Service, FBI and law enforcement answering questions and providing information from the prior days investigative results?

♦ Where are the organized and official updates to let the American people know what has been found out about the assassination attempt on President Donald Trump?

The absence of official press briefings has been the dog that didn’t bark.

Instead, the Secret Service, FBI and Law Enforcement have been selectively leaking details, testing what would be and would not be accepted, and we have only seen controlled snippets of information.

Much of the information within those leaks has been lies, sometimes absurd in their construct, pushed through a generally incurious media.

Smart people have noted the absence of the official public information process indicates something very sketchy in the background. [ie. the dog that didn’t bark]

The attempted assassination of President Trump is a big deal; perhaps one of the biggest events in recent history. There is massive public interest.

If ordinary procedures and protocols were being followed, we would have official daily updates at scheduled press conferences, and the media would be able to present questions based on presented information.  The absence of these press briefings told us something that is not good.  But perhaps today, we find out why.

The Washington Post is now running a story saying Secret Service security requests were repeatedly denied by top government officials.

(more…)

The FBI are in charge of the investigation of Thomas Matthew Crooks; that does not inspire any confidence.  However, it does explain the seemingly controlled leaking of information to the various media sources in order to keep the eyes of the public exactly where the investigators want them.

In every article and investigative detail that is leaked to media, remember the origination source of that information is coming from the FBI.  Top men.

The latest information to leak out includes revelations the FBI is going through 2 cell phones, a laptop and some USB drives belonging to Thomas Crooks.  From the same sourcing they are saying that Crooks conducted online surveillance of several public officials for several months [NY Post Article].

In addition, the Wall Street Journal is sharing that Crooks flew a drone over the venue of the Trump rally earlier in the day in order to scope out the best place for attack.

SUMMARY – In addition to bringing explosives, a detonator, a ladder, a range finder, a backpack and an AR15 rifle to the rally, while finding a way to sit atop the counter-sniper position, the 20-year-old without a social media footprint apparently had air superiority.

(Via Wall St Journal) […] The gunman who tried to kill Donald Trump was able to fly a drone and get aerial footage of the western Pennsylvania fairgrounds shortly before the former president was set to speak there, law-enforcement officials briefed on the matter said, further underscoring the stunning security lapses ahead of Trump’s near assassination.

Seemingly lost amid all of the discussion of Senators John Barrasso and Marsha Blackburn confronting U.S. Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle at the RNC convention last night, is the obvious question, why was Cheatle even there?

Did she meet with President Trump and offer an apology for what the USSS is positioning as a gross collapse of simple security procedures; or was Director Cheatle simply trying to save her position.  We don’t find out answers to the baseline question because the politics of the event are the paramount prism for the Barrasso and the Blackburn promotion of their confrontation.  I loathe all of them.

Here is the video of the incident which ends with the insufferable Barrasso and Blackburn politicking.  In a video posted on social media Wednesday, Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) and Sen. John Barrasso (R-WY) confronted Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle over the assassination attempt on former President Trump. WATCH:

Why these insufferable dolts just cannot start with the first and obvious question, is very annoying.

Peter Navarro left federal prison in Miami earlier this morning and flew to Milwaukee, Wisconsin to deliver a speech on the “injustice” within Biden’s America.

New details about the assassination attempt on President Trump are coming fast.

Earlier this morning former Secret Service Agent Dan Bongino gave his opinion about the Secret Service almost unfathomable drop in security protocol that allowed a gunman with a rifle to climb atop a building a mere 130 yards away from President Trump.  Having some very specific insight into protection detail protocol, Bongino gives a unique perspective on what might have gone wrong.  {Direct Rumble Link}

Making matters worse, the FBI are in charge of the investigation.  The FBI has suffered irreversible credibility collapse, and many believe there is no worse agency to investigate the events than a highly politicized and weaponized Federal Bureau of Investigation, with a long and non-debatable history of corruption.

Obviously, accepting the lack of public trust in both the FBI and Secret Service, there is mounting speculation as to whether the assassination effort was the result of a series of grossly incompetent mistakes, or was perhaps a willfully blind -and intentional- failure of security.

Adding fuel to the fire of intentional security failures, the AP is now reporting that a police officer saw the gunman before the shots were fired, and the police officer retreated allowing time for the shooter to fire 5 shots toward his target – wounding President Trump and two other attendees, killing another.

(VIA AP) – […] Not long before shots rang out, rallygoers noticed a man climbing to the roof of a nearby building and warned local police, according to two law enforcement officials.

One local police officer climbed to the roof and encountered Crooks, who pointed his rifle at the officer. The officer retreated down the ladder, and Crooks quickly took a shot toward Trump, and that’s when Secret Service snipers shot him, said the officials, who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity to discuss an ongoing investigation.
