The Federal Bureau of Investigation has been unable to penetrate the wily defenses on Thomas Matthew Crooks’s cell phone. It keeps asking for a passcode! The feds have no idea how Thomas, 20, got hold of his father’s gun. They don’t even know who to ask. Baffled agents are scratching their heads over what motive could possibly have led Thomas to create an elaborate and successful plan to penetrate the Secret Service’s defenses at Saturday’s rally. ...

Authorities in the US in the 21st Century are facing an outbreak of 'Baffled', everywhere they turn they get an acute case of baffled.

The FBI employs people who hate you, hate your family, hate your values, and hate your way of life.

They joke about your leaders almost getting murked while using deep war chests to paint you as the extremist. ...

Good thing the FBI is in charge of this investigation into the attempted assassination, right?

The FBI’s silence is deafening. The nation’s top law enforcement agency, tasked with getting to the bottom of what happened (or didn’t happen) in Butler County, has not updated its investigation website for the Trump Assassination Attempt since last Sunday. No updates. Zero, zip, nada. In fact, there are only three updates total on that web page — about the most important investigation in the FBI’s modern history.

Maybe the CrowdStrike crash took down the FBI? Anyway, in the New York Times’ article about the Secret Services’ stunning ‘reversal,’ the paper noted the agency has never held a press conference to answer questions about its failure to protect the former President — even though the Butler Police Department did, and even though that underfunded agency currently has no police chief:

The service never held or took part in a public briefing the night of
the shooting, while other law enforcement officials held a news
conference a few hours after the fact. The service did not hold a
public briefing to answer questions in the week after the
assassination attempt.

I’m only a lawyer, not a public relations expert, but it seems to me that the FBI and the Secret Service should hold daily joint press briefings to provide ongoing public updates about the investigation. This isn’t like they are investigating a Mexican opioid ring or a wayward Chinese spy balloon. This time, they can’t hide behind the old “ongoing investigation” excuse for long.

If you were trying to paint a picture of agencies locking down and covering up, the FBI and the Secret Service couldn’t possibly being doing a better job of that.

I guess the merciless mocking worked. Yesterday, Politico ran a story headlined, “FBI says Trump was indeed struck by bullet during assassination attempt.” The sub-headline added, “The agency’s one-sentence statement was the most definitive law enforcement account of the injuries and followed earlier, ambiguous comments from Director Christopher Wray.”

Ambiguous was one way of putting it. At his Congressional testimony on Wednesday, myopic FBI Director Chris Wray shocked House Republicans when he testified, “There’s some question about whether or not it’s a bullet or shrapnel that hit his ear.” Whether or not it was a bullet. “Or not.” It could have been Rocky the Flying Squirrel.

Yesterday, everyone —including your humble author— heaped scorn and derision on the reputationally impaired law enforcement agency, whose dwindling credibility was plummeting faster than a regular, non-flying squirrel without a parachute.

In the latest twist, yesterday the bushy-tailed bureaucracy released a rare, one-sentence statement admitting that, “What struck former President Trump in the ear was a bullet, whether whole or fragmented into smaller pieces, fired from the deceased subject’s rifle.”

President Trump graciously accepted the FBI’s statement as an apology. ...

While the FBI’s squirrelly about-face is nearly miraculous, the real miracle remains that someone (or someones) fired eight times at President Trump with a clear line of sight, and it all missed.

Depends. Could be false flag and "agent provocateurs" for sophisticated and mild AntiFa (or Act Blue / Bend the Arc) types, if they are not Feds pretending to be right wing militia.

They had one of these right wing ( "Proud boy" ) demonstrations in Oregon and they conveniently were all masked.

One of the identified demonstrators were unmasked and a lot of positive identification was made on him being a student in Univ of Cal system and he was studying sociology and stated on social media prior to the demonstration that he wanted to join federal law enforcement.

Even the Coast Guard which is suppose to be an armed force has or had undercover civilian law enforce agents (as part of its Coast Guard Investigative Service) embedded within activist groups. Seems like this is the Coast Guard attempt at COINTELPRO ?

"Plaintiffs are members of a group known as Port Militarization Resistance (PMR). The group protests the use of public ports in Western Washington for shipments of military equipment used in the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. One of many defendants is Clinton D.

Yeah Patrick,

JFK made even more enemies when he said he wanted to back the US Dollar with silver.

Did you hear RFK Jr say yesterday he wanted the US Treasury to buy Bitcoin ?

I wonder if RFK Jr will be on the ballot in Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, Arizona, Nevada and Georgia.

RFK has no chance of winning whether he is on the ballot or not. Therefore, the Dems will make sure he is on the ballot in critical districts so they can "Dominion" Trump votes over to RFK.

The Democrat White House and controlled DOJ and FBI gave a sweetheart deal to Andrew McCabe also.

And all salaries and wages under $100k/year and small contracts under $10000 in the metal itself, no private or public bank paper, by law. The metal in the hand. Let the rich, the corporations, the banks, and the government hold paper/digital "silver".

New HVAC installed for $5k? Metal in the contractors hand. Burger King cashier? Metal in her hand. IRS or Walmart? You can pay with digital silver or a silver paper check. In fairness, rent check for the $1200 studio (yes Californians, that's still fairly common outside the bubble), would also be metal in the landlord's hand

That prevents 99% of bullshit. Otherwise the powerful hold the metal and give everybody else paper representations. If bad things happen, the revalue the paper but the physical metal is immune from that. It's what happened many times in the 18th and 19th.

I've already posted the 10-20% "discounts" that banks offered for silver certificates they didn't want to take from other issuers, that was so commonplace all newspapers carried their discount rates.

2020 saw the FBI manufacture a kidnapping plot against Michigan governor Gretchen Witmer in an attempt to control the electoral cycle and crush budding opposition to lockdown, with what is now looking like a MAJORITY of those involved in the plot being federal assets or informants of one stripe or another.

Judicial Watch announced today that the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) withheld information on a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request for information about its coordination with the U.S. Secret Service regarding the July 13 Butler, PA, rally at which former President Trump was shot.

In denying Judicial Watch’s FOIA request, the FBI cites FOIA exemption 7(A), which applies to information that “could reasonably be expected to interfere with enforcement proceedings”

The Judicial Watch FOIA request on July 26 asked for:

All records of the FBI, including emails, email chains, email attachments, text messages, video or audio recordings, photographs, drawings, outlook calendars, meeting minutes, finished intelligence products, bulletins, raw intelligence, threat products, correspondence, statements, letters, memoranda, reports, briefings, presentations, notes, summaries, or other form of record, regarding preparation and coordination with the USSS for former President Donald Trump’s presidential campaign rally that was held in Butler, PA, on July 13, 2024. Please provide records from June 15, 2024, to present.

Judicial Watch is pursuing the next steps in preparation for litigation.

“Were there others involved in the assassination attempt on Trump? If not, then why would the FBI use the excuse of protecting someone’s right to a fair trial to hide records on the FBI’s and Secret Service’s inexcusable failures to protect Trump from being nearly assassinated,” Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton said. “The Biden-Harris administration is running a major league cover-up on the near assassination of former President Trump.”

Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg released a statement Monday acknowledging that Facebook actively censored information on COVID-19 and the Hunter Biden corruption scandal due to direct pressure from the federal government. Facts revealed by Elon Musk through the Twitter Files had already made it clear that government agencies like the FBI, CIA, and NSA were regularly demanding the censorship of American citizens by social media companies, but the letter that Zuckerberg sent to the House Judiciary Committee serves as the smoking gun.

The official Republican House Judiciary account on Twitter celebrated this admission as a victory for free speech, but nothing could be farther from the truth. Despite the admission that government actors used censorship to interfere in the 2020 election and silence dissent during the pandemic, no one faces criminal prosecution, and no one is getting fired. The only lesson the Democratic Party and deep state have learned is that censorship works.

Once the secret police start rigging elections, you must take swift action or things get bad fast. That is exactly what has happened in the United States, and no one in the GOP seems very interested in holding the FBI accountable.

Zuckerberg’s letter revealed that, leading up to the 2020 election, the FBI lied to Facebook executives by claiming that any story about the Biden family’s connection to the Ukrainian energy conglomerate Burisma was Russian disinformation. Facebook took the warning seriously and suppressed the story on its platform, denying millions of voters the information they needed to make an informed choice during the election.

Other social media companies took similar actions. Twitter went so far as locking the account of the New York Post for its story about Hunter Biden’s laptop. We now know the story was true, and the FBI knew it was true as well. However, the FBI wanted to rig the election in favor of Joe Biden, so agency officials used their position of power to lie to corporations that control the flow of information in the United States to influence the presidential contest.

Zuckerberg's apparent change of heart is, at least theoretically, great news. The billionaire wields enormous influence over how Americans interact with information. He also spent hundreds of millions of dollars in 2020 to reshape local election structures to favor the Democratic Party's machine politics, as Mollie Hemingway outlined in her book “Rigged.” ...
