Because they the mentally defectives could claim it was “much ado about nothing” and “Trump is just grandstanding” instead of “our entire security apparatus is grossly incompetent and needs to be disbanded, reformed, with every agent forced to reapply.

I don’t know if the military would be the right source for the cultural seed of the FBI - I do think whatever the protective service is, and whatever the service which looks for people counterfeiting documents - which should probably just be a division of whatever replaces the FBI.

(We will still need someone focusing on counterfeit documents, and someone to act as a clearing house for multi-state criminal investigations. We will still need a foreign relations department and a foreign intelligence service - but I think State and the CIA etc also need a complete overhaul.)

If Trump wins strongly enough, it will be interesting to see if the Stupid party will actually back a total overhaul of the bureaucracy.

I hope Trump takes a queue from Javier Milei and immediately eliminates a whole slew of bankrupt Federal agencies and departments.

Geez, all I did was post a published article about drones.

Of course I realize criminals won't follow laws and who knows how old or technical his drone was?

But I appreciate the education!

You are of course correct. But your/our being correct doesn’t matter.

What matters about being able to publicly question—however inanely—whether he was injured by an intact bullet is how it is perceived by the nation of sheep within the (somewhat) larger overall Nation. There are literally millions who hate DJT and will desperately seize on anything that seems to validate their beliefs. We see that sort of thing in the continuous lies spewed forth by the advocates of the Left: It doesn’t matter whether the lies are the least bit believable on any rational basis, all that matters is that they reinforce the sheep’s hopes and desires.

Being able to believe that DJT wasn’t injured directly by a bullet allows them to convince themselves that it wasn’t an actual murder attempt. That is obviously totally irrational, but to reiterate, that doesn’t matter. All that matters is whether they can believe it.

Something similar I’ve run across is the apparent claim that the shooting wasn’t a serious attempt to kill President Trump, and that’s why the bullet only grazed his ear: It was enough to produce dramatic pictures, and that was its only purpose. The fact that the idea is arrant nonsense for a large number of clearly objective reasons won’t change the minds of all those who unquestioningly accept it as further validation of their beliefs about DJT in general.

All this is nothing new, though. I was reminded of the fact when reading the book that I’m just finishing, Reds: The Tragedy of American Communism by Maurice Isserman. Countless followers of that secular theocracy willfully blinded themselves to the horrors perpetrated by Stalin and the rest of the Soviet leadership and organizations. And that is only one of many similar examples throughout history.

The article was conspiracy nonsense.

Yes sir. I'll be more careful next time.

Yes. He should CLEAN HOUSE of ANYONE that was appointed by a commie.

Not just the socialist appointees but the real problem and the biggest danger is the unelected permanent staffers of all the organizations that are really running the show.

It’s hard to fire a federal ‘civil servant’ but it is infinitely easier to simply eliminate entire departments and divisions.

Why do we need a federal department if education when every state and community have their own school boards.

Similarly eliminate the EPA and start over by making it a clearing house for information since every state had its own environmental protection organizations.

Anyone in any agency who’s sole function was to write rules and regulations should be fired by eliminating their divisions.

Eliminate the ATF in its entirety. Eliminate the FBI as it exists today and start over.

Expel foreign nationals in our schools when they come from a country that is our enemy.

Deport every illegal and close the border for 2 years.

Let’s fundamentally change this country back to its former glory.

Haven’t even started in on the lobbyists by that needs to be curtailed badly.

I need a little help. I keep running into this premise that Trump has stated he will install himself as a dictator when elected.

Where did that come from???? I certainly don't recall that statement.

This. Context.

Got it.... Thanks

Come on, who hasn't had a "if I could be" - usually, but not always, benevolent -"king/dictator/tyrant for a day" dream?



There have been a number of such threads on this very board. Most of which I have happily participated in.

When he joked he was only going to be "dictator" on the first day of his presidency. And of course most of us know that he is talking about signing a bunch of executive orders. But the media and Democrats ran with it of said he intends to be "dictator" for life. And then his "bloodbath" analogy in his autoworker speech sent the media and Democrats to the edge, saying as dictator, he will put celebrities, those who oppose him, in concentration camps, in prison, and actually executing people. And after his assassination attempt, a few Democrats admitted they may have gone a bit too far, and that all of this was "throwing meat to the lions"

It’s easy to see that the full court press of the liberal media has begun.

The sheer amount of spinning, cleansing, pushing lies, etc. will be monumental as they try to foist this bimbo on the sheep.

This is the state of liberal politics as the indoctrination of a few generations is complete and the activation of the installed push buttons can easy be done by the media.

We have some decent people on our side to simply state truths with factual evidence to back things up.

We need to keep calling out the hypocrites and question the sources of their drivel.

The shooter's social media presence has been uncovered now.
He WAS a leftist. And the FBI/SS are scrubbing and covering it up now.


epicMicrowave is what he posted under.

^^^^^^^

If you have seen this stuff, maybe you can screenshot the posts for posterity.

I look to this Forum almost exclusively for reliable, accurate information about the assassination attempt on President Trump. So far, in my judgment, it has been the best on the Internet.

Thank you all for keeping us up to date!!

I'd like to but I have to have a pretty low social media presence now.

I got a promotion and am held to stricter standards and even more secrecy.


I can link this.
I can't go search.

Is President Trump going back to Butler PA for another rally? I heard something about this on Fox News. Has he confirmed this?

That just shows what a fearless leader he really is.
