‘HE’S ON THE ROOF!’ – Tucker Carlson Releases Shocking Unseen Footage of Trump Assassination Attempt

Tucker Carlson has released shocking unseen footage of the first assassination attempt against Donald Trump.

The raw footage, captured across various cameras, shows attendees at the rally warning the Secret Service that the attempted shooter, Thomas Matthew Crooks, successfully scaled a nearby roof before coming inches away from assassinating the former president.

In separate footage, attendees are seen sheltering themselves from the gunfire, which sadly killed firefighter Corey Comperatore and seriously wounded two others.

Such footage corroborates the view that the Secret Service drastically failed in its duties to secure the area, a failure that led to the resignation of its director, Kimberley Cheatle.

US Likely ‘Had a Hand’ in Israel’s Operation to Eliminate Hezbollah’s Leader Nasrallah – Analyst

Iran has condemned the Israeli attack that killed Hezbollah’s Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah, with President Masoud Pezeshkian claiming that the US greenlit the attack and bears partial responsibility for the “war crime.”

It is very likely that the US “had a hand” in Israel’s operation in Beirut that killed Hezbollah’s Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah, Nikolas Kosmatopoulos, assistant professor of public policy and international affairs at the American University of Beirut, told Sputnik.

“Certainly, there is good reason to believe that there has been diplomatic approval… military, most probably, and intelligence cooperation,” he said.

US interest in an operation targeting Nasrallah “might have to do with the protection of the role and power that Israel projects in the region,” the pundit speculated.

“It is no secret that Israel enjoys bipartisan support in the US Senate and Congress. It is also an important US ally, and carries out its dirty job in the region. It helps the US maintain economic, diplomatic, and political hegemony […] keeps the region in turmoil… It doesn’t allow for the unification of the region, doesn’t allow for the region to cooperate with each other… become a regional power that could endanger the interests of the US and the EU,” he underscored.

Kosmatopoulos pointed out that the military-industrial complexes of the US and Israel “are almost organically entwined, are an extension of each other.”

Former Opponent of Rep. Anna Paulina Luna Charged With Threatening to Hire Assassination Squad Against Her

A former congressional candidate was charged by the Justice Department over allegations that he threatened to hire a “Russian-Ukrainian” hit squad to murder his political opponent Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.).

The DOJ announced the unsealed indictment Friday, charging 41-year-old William Braddock of St. Petersburg, Florida, with one count of interstate transmission of a true threat to injure another person.

Braddock is accused of making “several threats to injure” two victims in a phone call on June 8, 2021 — including one where he threatened to “call up my Russian-Ukrainian hit squad” to murder his political rival.

Though prosecutors did not outright name the victims in the unsealed indictment, at the time Braddock was running against fellow Republican Luna in the 2022 Florida primary and he was allegedly caught on audio calling the lawmaker a “dead squirrel” and “a f—ing speed bump in the road.”

“I really don’t want to have to end anybody’s life for the good of the people of the United States of America,” he was heard saying in the audio, which was reported by Politico.

“That will break my heart. But if it needs to be done, it needs to be done. Luna is a f—ing speed bump in the road. She’s a dead squirrel you run over every day when you leave the neighborhood.”

Luna in 2021 had claimed in court documents that Braddock “[was] stalking her and [wanted] her dead.”

Claim: Trump’s Plane A Target For ‘Kill Teams’ With Surface To Air Missiles

Extravagant claims are being made that three so called ‘kill teams’ have taken delivery of sets of three surface to air missiles which they intend to use to target Donald Trump’s jet in a plot to assassinate him.

Conservative journalist Ann Vandersteel claims that the operation to smuggle the weapons into the US was facilitated by the Sinaloa Cartel of Mexico and that the weapons are possibly of Iranian origin.

Trump supporting journalist Lara Logan also claims that a source in New Mexico has confirmed the development, stating that Trump’s plane is the next target for assassination and his team has been informed along with US intelligence.

Others have also suggested that multiple sources have corroborated the claims.

Six most shocking revelations in Senate report on Secret Service’s handling of first Trump shooting

Some alarming revelations appear in the bipartisan Senate report on the U.S. Secret Service’s handling of the first attempted assassination of former President Trump at his campaign rally in Butler, Pa. in July.

Report on Trump shooting in Butler, Pa.pdf

1 – The full report, released on Wednesday by the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, detailed how an inexperienced Secret Service drone detection operator was on the phone with customer service, trying to figure out how to properly operate the C-UAS drone detection system as suspect Thomas Crooks’ assassination plot was unfolding. 

“C-UAS system experienced technical problems and was inoperable until 4:33 pm, after Crooks flew his drone near the rally site,” the report said. “With no backup system, the USSS agent responsible for overseeing the C-UAS capabilities at the July 13 rally called a toll-free 888 tech support hotline ‘to start troubleshooting with the company,’ which took several hours. That agent had only three months of experience working with that equipment and lacked knowledge about it.”

2 – The report revealed that a USSS Counter Sniper Team Leader warned counter snipers by email, not radio communications or mobile text messaging, about Crooks lurking with a rangefinder and did not urge agents to keep Trump off the rally stage.

The leader received text messages from a local sniper at approximately 5:45 pm “regarding an individual near the AGR building with a rangefinder looking toward the stage.” The text messages he received included two photos of Crooks, whose identity was unknown at the time. He forwarded the information to USSS counter snipers in an email, which contained an error. The message said, “Kid learning around the building we are in” instead of, “Kid lurking around the building we are in.” 

One of the snipers who saw the email told the committee it was “worded vaguely” but they still tried searching the site for Crooks.

3 – A Secret Service sniper saw local law-enforcement with guns drawn, heading toward the building where Crooks was about to shoot from, but did not alert the agents protecting Trump.

“Shortly before shots were fired, a USSS counter sniper saw local law enforcement running toward the AGR building with their guns drawn, but he did not alert former President Trump’s protective detail to remove him from the stage,” the committee reported. “The USSS counter sniper told the Committee that while seeing officers with their guns drawn ‘elevated’ the threat level, the thought to notify someone to get Trump off the stage ‘did not cross [his] mind.’”

New Film Commemorates Legacy Of Lawyer Who Exposed Conspiracy To Murder MLK

 Conventional wisdom holds that James Earl Ray was a deranged white supremacist who killed Martin Luther King, Jr., on April 4, 1968.

Research carried out by King family attorney William F. Pepper determined, however, that King was really killed in a conspiracy coordinated by FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover.

Pepper died in April. He is the focus of a new film by John Barbour, with Len Osanic, A Tribute to William Pepper, that was screened on July 30 at American University at the 12th Annual Whistleblower Summit in Washington, D.C.

Barbour is a Canadian-born comedian, actor and TV host who directed two documentary films on Jim Garrison, the New Orleans District Attorney who uncovered a conspiracy to kill John F. Kennedy that involved elements of the CIA.

In introducing his film, Barbour said that Pepper and Garrison should be regarded, along with Abraham Lincoln, as among the greatest lawyers in U.S. history.

A Tribute to William Pepper begins by detailing the friendship that developed between Pepper and King after Pepper wrote an article in the countercultural magazine Ramparts in 1967 about the use of napalm in Vietnam called “The Children of Vietnam.”

Debunking the Worst Gun Control ‘Hot Takes’ After Second Trump Assassination Attempt

Donald Trump by all accounts survived another assassination attempt earlier this month when Secret Service agents engaged a rifle-wielding man lying in wait in bushes adjoining a hole at his private golf club in West Palm Beach, Florida, where the former president was playing.

As is so often the case after high-profile incidents involving the criminal misuse of firearms, a lot of gun control activists immediately took to the internet with their “hot takes,” declining to wait for correct information to come to light or to analyze whether their initial gut feelings had any relationship to reality.

And, as usual, many of these immediate hot takes really missed the mark. Here are three of the most common assertions erroneously made in the days following the second known attempt to assassinate Trump.

Oops! Deep State Gets Caught?… DOJ Says Letter Written by Would-Be Assassin Ryan Routh Apologizing for Not Killing Trump and Offering Reward was WRITTEN MONTHS BEFORE ATTEMPTED ASSASSINATION!?

On Monday, Joe Biden’s Department of Justice released a ten-page pre-trial memorandum in support of a pre-trial detention of would-be Trump assassin Ryan Wesley Routh.

Routh appeared in court later in the day on Monday. He was denied bail during his appearance.

Ryan Routh was captured after attempting to assassinate President Donald Trump on a Florida golf course on September 15th. This was the second assassination attempt on President Trump in two months.

It is not clear at this point how he knew that Trump would be playing a round of golf at that same course that Saturday. But the FBI said in their pre-trial report that Routh was stalking President Trump for two months before he attempted to assassinate the former president in September.

On Monday, the Biden regime released a ten-page document filed in the US Southern District of Florida in support of keeping the would-be assassin locked up until trial.

The Biden DOJ included photos of the would-be assassin’s gun and ammo.

Failed Trump Assassin Had A List Of Everywhere Trump Would Be August To October

The deranged leftist who attempted to kill president Trump was in possession of a list of venues and events where the GOP nominee was going to appear, according to a detention filing.

Ryan Routh appeared in court Monday charged with two federal gun crimes: Possession of a firearm by a convicted felon and possession, and receipt of a firearm with an obliterated serial number.

DOJ prosecutors noted that Routh also conducted several reconnaissance trips to Trump’s West Palm Beach golf course and his Mar-a-Lago residence months before he was caught.

Routh’s apparent knowledge of intimate details of Trump’s schedule has led many to question where he got it from, with Rep. Eli Crane even suggesting there could be a mole within the Secret Service who is intent on seeing Trump killed.

It also emerged that Routh weirdly wrote a letter addressed “Dear world” outlining how he had tried to assassinate Trump, but had failed. Within the letter he offers $150,000 to anyone who can finish the job.

Did the Biden-Harris DOJ Put a Bounty on Trump’s Head?

On Monday, the Department of Justice released a handwritten letter from Ryan Wesley Routh, the suspect in the attempted assassination of Donald Trump. The letter, written months before the attempt, was turned over to authorities by a witness who received it along with other items in a box several months prior.

And the son of Donald Trump, Donald Trump Jr., is blasting the Department of Justice for releasing the letter.

“This was an assassination attempt on Donald Trump,” the letter began, “but I am so sorry I failed you. I tried my best and gave it all the gumption I could muster.”

“It is up to you now to finish the job, and I will offer $150,000 to whomever can compete the job,” the letter continues. “Everyone across the globe from the younger to the oldest know that Trump is unfit to be anything, much less a U.S. president. U.S. presidents must at bare minimum embody the moral fabric that is America and be kind, caring and selfless and always stand for humanity.”

It certainly is curious why the Biden-Harris administration released this letter publicly, when, more often than not, the manifestos of killers are kept under wraps as much as possible. For example the manifesto of the Covenant School shooter has yet to be fully released, despite the fact that there is significant public interest in the transgender shooter’s motives. So far, only small portions of her writings have managed to be released or leaked.
