Representative Clay Higgins is a member of the congressional investigative task force looking into the assassination attempt by Thomas Matthew Crooks against President Trump.  Rep Higgins was also doing independent research prior to his appointment to the congressional committee, and he released his preliminary report findings today [SEE HERE pdf].

There are some remarkable revelations in the 6-page pdf.  One detail outlines how it was a Butler County SWAT officer who fired the initial shot that stopped Matthew Crooks after 8 shots fired.  The Feds did not initially stop the assassin, the locals did. Another detail highlights how the Butler County coroner was not aware the FBI quickly released the body of Crooks for immediate cremation.

♦ […] “The 9th shot fired on J13 was from a Butler SWAT operator from the ground about 100 yards away from the AGR building. Shot 9 hit Crooks’ rifle stock and fragged his face/neck/right shoulder area from the stock breaking up. The SWAT operator who took this shot was a total badass; when he had sighted the shooter Crooks as a mostly obscured by foliage moving target on the AGR rooftop, he immediately left his assigned post and ran towards the threat, running to a clear shot position directly into the line of fire while Crooks was firing 8 rounds. On his own, this ESU SWAT operator took a very hard shot, one shot. He stopped Crooks and importantly, I believe the shot damaged the buffer tube on Crooks’ AR. I won’t be certain of this until I can examine Crooks’ rifle, but I’m 99% sure based upon reliable eye-witness ESU tactical officers who observed Crooks’ rifle before the FBI harvested it as evidence. This means that if his AR buffer tube was damaged, Crooks’ rifle wouldn’t fire after his 8th shot.” [Clay Higgins Report, pdf – page 4]

UPDATE:  Authorities identified a suspect Wednesday in the break-in at a Donald Trump campaign office in suburban Virginia.  Toby Shane Kessler, 39, is suspected of breaking into the office on Sunday evening, the Loudoun County Sherriff’s Office said.  Kessler, who has a criminal record and no known address, was not in custody, the office said in a statement.

On Sunday August 11, 2024, at approximately 9:00pm authorities were alerted to a break-in at the Trump 2024 campaign headquarters in Ashburn, VA.

The sheriff’s office is now releasing images from the security camera as they attempt to identify the individual. The white male, late 40’s, wearing a baseball cap, dark grey hoodie, grey pants and a reverse mounted backpack is pictured below. Based entirely on the appearance of the individual and the manner of which he is carrying his kit, this guy looks like a fed.

Press release from the Loudon County Sheriff’s Office (LCSO) below:

Loudoun County, VA (August 12, 2024): The Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office (LCSO) is seeking a suspect in connection with a burglary at the Trump for President 2024 campaign office in Ashburn, VA, on August 11, 2024. The office, in the 20000 block of Ashbrook Place, is being leased by the Trump campaign and also serves as the headquarters of the Virginia 10th District Republican Committee.

Noticing the outlet with the story is always the first step in identifying the motive behind it.

Together with the New York Times, Politico is the most favored outlet by the FBI, DOJ and domestic IC apparatus.  [DHS stories go through The Wall Street Journal, CIA through The Washington Post, and State Dept through CNN.  These are the constants in an ever-changing narrative universe.]

According to a recent Politico article, on July 22nd they began receiving leaked documents from the account of a “senior official” within the Trump campaign.  [Datapoint – That is a total of 19 days ago]

The Trump campaign said the documents were “hacked” likely as an outcome of a foreign actor, intending to influence the 2024 election.  Actually, that’s a pretty smart move by the Trump campaign. I’ll explain why.

Politico – […]  “These documents were obtained illegally from foreign sources hostile to the United States, intended to interfere with the 2024 election and sow chaos throughout our Democratic process,” Cheung said. “On Friday, a new report from Microsoft found that Iranian hackers broke into the account of a ‘high ranking official’ on the U.S. presidential campaign in June 2024, which coincides with the close timing of President Trump’s selection of a vice-presidential nominee.”

On July 22, POLITICO began receiving emails from an anonymous account. Over the course of the past few weeks, the person — who used an AOL email account and identified themselves only as “Robert” — relayed what appeared to be internal communications from a senior Trump campaign official. A research dossier the campaign had apparently done on Trump’s running mate, Ohio Sen. JD Vance, which was dated Feb. 23, was included in the documents. The documents are authentic, according to two people familiar with them and granted anonymity to describe internal communications. One of the people described the dossier as a preliminary version of Vance’s vetting file.

The American public want to know what happened, how it happened and the context for how an assassin was so easily able to get within 150 yards of President Donald Trump and take several shots, killing one and wounding several others – including President Trump.

Today, the Senate Homeland Security Committee will hold a hearing at 10:00 am EDT with U.S. Secret Service acting director Ronald Rowe and FBI deputy director Paul Abbate, to ask questions about the attempted assassination of President Donald Trump.

In previous House testimony given by FBI Director Chris Wray, he was curiously willing to answer specific questions about the ongoing investigation and the discoveries therein. A substantive change in approach against the backdrop of his years of obfuscation. That said, Wray’s responses were not always factually accurate. Acting Director Ronald Rowe and FBI Deputy Director Paul Abbate have not yet answered questions and specific lines of congressional inquiry.

The senate hearing begins at 10:00am with livestream links below:

.

[Via PBS} – […] FBI Director Christopher Wray told Congress last week that on July 6, the day Crooks registered to attend the Trump rally, he googled: “How far away was Oswald from Kennedy?” That’s a reference to Lee Harvey Oswald, the shooter who killed President John F. Kennedy from a sniper’s perch in Dallas on Nov. 22, 1963.

New details, meanwhile, were emerging about law enforcement security lapses and missed communications that preceded the shooting.

Sen. Chuck Grassley, an Iowa Republican on the Senate Judiciary Committee, released text messages from members of the Beaver County Emergency Services Unit that showed how local officers had communicated with each other about a suspicious-behaving man who turned out to be Crooks lurking around more than an hour before the shooting.

One text just before 4:30 p.m. describes a man “sitting to the direct right on a picnic table about 50 yards from the exit.”

President Donald Trump sat down for an interview with Fox News host Laura Ingraham to discuss current political events.

Ingraham can quickly slip into the mode of telling Donald Trump what the current political events are; however, Mrs Hannity did pause her interruptions long enough to allow President Trump to articulate his side of her arguments. WATCH:

.

It’s a little funny because President Trump doesn’t like Mrs Hannity (you can see it).

There are a growing number of voices pointing very specifically at the U.S. Secret Service and saying the level of incompetency in Butler County, Pennsylvania, was not accidental.

Indeed, as the fact pattern emerges, despite -and perhaps because of- the lack of public press briefings by DHS and the Secret Service leadership, a strong argument is now gaining momentum that USSS intentionally set President Trump up to be assassinated.  In this horrifically possible scenario, ‘willful blindness’ is the best alternative.

Putting further fuel on the possibility of an intended collapse of security, the local Butler County SWAT team is now telling the public that Secret Service officials never met with them, nor provided secure communications channels between the SWAT members and the Secret Service.  The SWAT team had no way to tell the USSS of the threat they saw moving toward President Trump. This detailed revelation is very troubling.  WATCH:

.

I am not at all surprised that First Lady Melania Trump now wants to keep Barron Trump as far away from American politics as possible.

The absence of specific government press conferences remains ‘the dog that didn’t bark’.

Senator Ron Johnson is the former chair of the Homeland Security Committee.  Johnson’s staff have been sending letters to various agencies responsible for presidential security, in an effort to find out as much information as possible about the assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania.

It has only been two weeks since an assassin attempted to kill President Trump, while murdering a rally attendee and critically injuring two others.  However, most of the corporate media have dropped the subject and quickly rushed to the coronation of Kamala “brat” Harris.   In an attempt to diminish the issue, Google has even removed search qualifiers for the Trump assassination attempt.  Google doesn’t do this without active participation with DHS and the Intelligence Community.

Ron Johnson talks to Fox News about the briefings he and his staff have received from DHS and Secret Service officials. WATCH:

In popular lingo young people simply say, “that tracks.”  It’s a quick way of saying, new information makes sense with pre-existing information.

Investigative journalist Seymour Hersch writes on his substack [SEE HERE], an article outlying how his sources in Washington DC and the White House have confirmed to him that former President Barack Obama was the impetus to push Joe Biden out of the 2024 presidential race.

Seymour Hersh says President Obama was “deeply involved” with the alleged coup and called Joe Biden after his “incident” in Las Vegas, which, from all outward appearances, looks like a major slip and fall – with a significant hit to the head.

“I went over [reports] this week with a senior official in Washington who helped me fashion an account of a White House in complete disarray,” Hersh said.

“Obama called Biden after breakfast [on July 20] and said, ‘Here’s the deal. We have Kamala’s approval to invoke the 25th Amendment,'” a senior Washington official told Hersh. Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, and Hakeem Jeffries were reportedly directly involved.

Obama’s plan was to not to immediately endorse Kamala, but it was clear that she would “get the nod.” “[Obama] had an agenda and he wanted to seek it through to the end, and he wanted to have control over who would be elected.” (Hersch article encapsulated)

Not only does this outline track with every datapoint known about events leading up to the Biden announcement, it also aligns with the entire background of the Obama team operating inside the Biden administration.  Team Obama have always been in control.  Heck, the Obamas never even left Washington DC after their term in office.

“Fight, Fight, Fight!” Those were the last words from a wounded President Trump before he was rushed from the stage in Butler, Pennsylvania.

Today, President Trump announces his intention to return to that venue and finish the speech he started.  AWESOME!

Miranda Devine has an interesting op-ed today in the New York Post, sharing information gleaned from a group of law enforcement who are no longer cooperating with what they see as a highly politicized FBI.

The underlying issue is not a surprise to many of us, and the specific reasons for the distrust and lack of cooperation are, not surprisingly, exactly what we predicted long before their assembly came together.

NEW YORK POST – […] “They are not only reluctant to work with the FBI but reportedly have decided to no longer share actionable, substantive information on criminal and other intelligence-related activity with the FBI.” 

Most concerning is what the alliance of whistleblowers calls a “crisis of confidence” in FBI-led task forces where relationships with local cops have deteriorated to the point of “imploding” in some cases because of “poor management and ineffective leadership by the FBI.” 

Local cops said their precipitous loss of trust in the FBI was triggered by its excessive response to the Capitol riot of Jan. 6, 2021, followed by the raid on Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence in Florida. 

One source, a 25-year veteran sergeant in the Major Crimes Division of a large police force in a Western state, said they “cannot understand why the FBI is not going after [far-left militant group] Antifa, BLM and pro-Palestinian rioters with the same vigor the FBI brought to bear against” J6 participants. (read more)

What the group describes about the FBI relationship with Antifa is exactly what we have previously discussed on these pages.  There is no way for Antifa to operate as a domestic extremist group, without the expressed support and willful blindness of the FBI.  Quite simply if the FBI wanted to stop the violent and extremist activity of Antifa, they could do that easily.

Remember, the objective of the FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago was to resecure what they perceived as physical evidence President Trump controlled showing how the DOJ and FBI action in 2016 was targeting him using the power of their law enforcement and intelligence agencies.   In the background, the origination of all the DOJ/FBI/IC targeting goes back to the ’15/’16 FBI exploitation of the NSA database; this is not a contested discussion issue – it’s just continually forgotten.
