Every Assassinated President was a Republican except one. And he was the one who cut taxes and began to revisit US Foreign & Intel Agency Policy.

Maybe I missed it but there doesn't seem to be much in the way of vids of Trump actually on the fairways at the times of the assassination attempt. There was one vid which looked more like a file vid rather than current.

Until such surfaces, I'm nearly inclined to regard this as a decoy operation for flushing patsy and congeners. Maybe such is out there, but haven't seen it yet.

Not sure whether it's true, but it wouldn't surprise me.

Yesterday, Governor DeSantis signed an executive order opening Florida’s independent investigation into Ryan Routh’s attempted assassination. The Governor then held a well-attended press conference announcing the investigation, without a single federal official, and it knocked corporate media right off its rocking chair. Some platforms played the story straight, like the AP, which described it as a humdrum ‘parallel’ investigation, under the headline “Florida will launch criminal probe into apparent assassination attempt of Trump, governor says.”

In the brainless New York Times story, Florida’s independent investigation is painted as a conspiracy to embarrass Joe Biden between Governor DeSantis and Republicans in Congress. The Times’ story is headlined, “Why the Story of the Golf Course Shooting Will Be Told Twice.”

The Times’s headline was right, but for the wrong reason. The only reason we’ll get the feds’ side of the story is because they don’t want to be embarrassed by Florida. It’s already started, with the FBI admitting yesterday it once investigated and abandoned Routh in 2019.

A few of the Governor’s comments triggered the Times. The Governor, himself a lawyer, argued the feds have a conflict of interest in investigating Ryan Routh for attempting to kill Trump, since the feds are also simultaneously trying to drag Trump to jail, and are being directed by an Administration seeking to politically castrate the former President.

DeSantis also said the investigation should be open, transparent, and not smothered in inky bureaucratic blackness, like the Las Vegas shooting case has been. DeSantis observed, “I don’t think anyone can honestly claim that the federal government has been forthright and transparent about its past investigations. That’s just the reality. That’s just how these guys operate.”

But those comments, however politically incorrect to the Times, were not the reason why DeSantis said he opened an investigation. The undebatable reason for Florida’s involvement is the feds only charged Routh with two low-level firearms violations: possessing a weapon with a felony conviction and with an obliterated serial number. Together, the two charges amount only to a maximum of 15 years.

“To say you’re going to do a couple gun charges, that is not sufficient,” DeSantis icily declared.

Instead, Florida intends to charge Routh with attempted murder, a state-law crime carrying up to life in prison. Florida need only prove four things: Routh’s intent, preparation, a single act taken in furtherance of the plot, and that it would have succeeded if not interrupted. Those four required elements seem self-evident in the facts already known about Routh’s case.

The DOJ cannot charge Routh with attempted murder, since it’s a state crime. They can’t even charge him with attempted assassination, since candidate Trump doesn’t fit the statutory definition of a political target under federal law, because he hasn’t yet been elected and past officials don’t count. Florida has access to even more crimes, including grand theft auto,* a stolen license plate, and analogous state-level weapons violations.

(* DeSantis’ executive order described Routh’s car, the black Nissan, as ‘stolen,’ which is another state-level crime.)

I suspect that as facts continue tumbling out, we will discover that Routh’s attempted murder operation was very skilled and very well organized. Among other talents, we already know the failed, broke, tiny-home contractor could: effortlessly raise money, get hold of foreign weapons with serial numbers filed off, buy fake passports in Pakistan, travel hither and thither, in and out of war zones, steal black Nissans, finagle stolen license plates for his stolen cars, build sniper’s nests, evade detection by Secret Service sweeps for over twelve hours, and so on, and so forth, and you get the idea.

Oh —haha!— I almost forgot. Silly me. In an exclusive Wall Street Journal story headlined “U.S. Authorities Were Warned About Suspected Trump Gunman”, the Journal casually mentioned that Routh worked with at least one ‘former’ CIA officer:

Routh was well known among volunteer aid groups in Ukraine as a "fraudster"
and "kind of a whack job," said Sarah Adams, a former CIA officer who helped
run a network that linked 50 aid groups to share information and coordinate
humanitarian and volunteer efforts. He claimed to be working with the
Ukrainian government to recruit foreign fighters but wasn't, she said.

Lest we forget, in another limited-hangout story (never followed up on), the New York Times already told us how Ukraine was swarming with CIA agents, a dozen secret underground CIA bases, and a private army of Ukrainian saboteurs trained by CIA. Ukraine was (or is) practically the CIA’s world headquarters.

In fact, the CIA is so deep up Ukraine’s backside that one could robustly argue that the Russians aren’t fighting the Zelensky regime in Ukraine so much as they are fighting the CIA in Ukraine. As Joe Biden would say, not a joke.

Anyway, I won’t describe the Journal’s Routh story in detail since this topic is already running long. But believe me that it has all the hallmarks of a deep-state dump and a limited hangout. For just one example, the Journal somehow got hold of half a dozen people who worked with Routh in Ukraine, including the aforementioned former CIA officer, who all described the skinny ex-construction worker as sketchy, dangerous, and kind of crazy.

Now they tell us.

But … how did the Wall Street Journal so quickly round up all these Routh-connected sources to interview? It didn’t say. I guess there must be a hotline or something. 1-800-ROUTH-TIPS, maybe. Or they just called Langley, Virginia. But that is a side issue.

In addition to his many chameleon-like spy powers, like stealing cars and license plates and setting up sniper nests, Routh also somehow successfully made himself a ubiquitous propaganda mouthpiece for the Proxy War effort, and somehow managed to score interviews with all the major media platforms. It’s almost like Routh had a handler of some kind. And it was all very un-failure-like.

Definitely sketchy. Obviously dangerous. But more importantly, Routh clearly has skillz. With a ‘z’. Routh looks more like John Wick than a failed “fraudster” or a psychotic “whack job.”

I’m not saying it’s obvious somebody must have trained the walking scarecrow, just because he failed at everything evident in his public-facing life. The Journal even called it, “his tumultuous life full of failures and brushes with the law.” So okay, maybe, late in life, he finally stumbled across the one thing he’s good at: international assassin. He could have learned all that spooky spy stuff on YouTube. You never know.

That seems possible but highly unlikely. Isn’t the more parsimonious explanation that somebody trained Routh in spook skills? Somebody, perhaps, who works in an agency in love with three-letter acronyms?

Regardless, setting all that aside, the bottom line, and the thing to remember, is DeSantis’s central point: the DOJ should hand the case over to Florida since Routh’s crimes were committed in Florida, and since Florida can get a life sentence under state law, as opposed to just a maximum of 15 years on low-level federal gun charges.

Even setting aside the issue of transparency and trust, the feds should get out of the way until and unless they can charge Routh with something better than two commonplace weapons violations. And that is a fact.

One final quick update. We’ve wondered how Routh knew Trump would be on the golf course, since the trip arose right after a last-minute schedule change. But Routh’s timing is even more astonishing than that. Since Trump often plays golf on this course, it is true Routh could’ve just made a lucky guess.

But yesterday, I learned that Trump International has not yet opened for the season. In other words, the course was closed. So Routh would’ve had to know Trump was playing there even though nobody else was, and even though if Routh checked the course’s website, it would’ve said no golfing was going on.

In other words, not only was it even more remarkable Routh guessed Trump would be there, it was also the perfect time to get Trump, since the course was closed and pesky public players wouldn’t be around to interfere.

Curiouser and curiouser, cried Alice (so much surprised, that for the moment she quite forgot how to speak good English).

Here's the situation with the car bomb at the Long Island Trump Rally earlier:

Here's the situation with the car bomb at the Long Island Trump Rally earlier:

So much for the "Public Information Office" - it conveys absolutely no information other than "We don't know."

Well, I think a lavish decoy operation is going on. Must be a YUGE bounty on Trump. First assassination in the initial rushes five exfiltrated Vietnamese were killed with cyanide in a Bangkok Hotel (price of failure, or just routine eradication of non patsy perps?), a Cuban Real Estate Mogul suicided before FBI could question him (Bush Team), and FBI making inquiries in Moscow (Ukrainian connection?).

Using foreign teams with patsy frosting seems to be the nom de plume. If the patsy scores, frosting on the cake, but that is not his primary function. Everybody just leaves the patsy drama in place for public consumption, although there were no rushes on foreign teams so far in the golf course caper. I think Team Trump knows these attempts but isn't above using them for publicity.

During a White House press briefing on Tuesday, Fox News correspondent Peter Doocy asked Jean-Pierre:

“How many more assassination attempts on Donald Trump until the president and vice president and you pick a different word to describe Trump, other than ‘threat?’”

Jean-Pierre told Doocy she completely disagreed with the premise of his question.

Instead of answering the question, she claimed that the way he asked it was “incredibly dangerous” because Americans were watching.

In a post on X, The Spectator editor-at-large Ben Domenech argued:
“‘Asking questions about how we demonize our opponents and their supporters is dangerous!’ is an utterly heinous response from KJP.”

Homeland Security isn't about the Homeland or security. More like 'False Flag False Emergency Apparatus(FEMA) For Gulaging The American People' and can properly be called another Globalist foreign agency operation.

Director Berger first confirmed the fact that last year, Customs and Border Patrol had found Routh suspicious when he re-entered the country, and referred Routh’s file to Homeland Security as a suspect. But then, as always, the trail went cold. In the clip, Representative Gaetz reads from the CBP memo on Routh:

“They (CBP) say in their memo, ‘the suspect is a US citizen who traveled to Kiev, Ukraine, for three months to help recruit soldiers from Afghanistan, Moldova, and Taiwan, to fight in the Ukrainian war against Russia. Subject stated he does not get paid for his recruiting efforts, and all his work for the Ukrainian government is strictly volunteer work. Subject stated that he obtains money from his wife to help fund his trips to Ukraine.’”

What’s that? His wife! We hadn’t heard of this person before. She’s been completely scrubbed from corporate media. How is it that corporate media has failed not only to interview this person but even to mention her?

Pasting lots of pieces together, Routh apparently has recently remarried, to a woman named Kathleen Shaffer. In addition to the CBP report, Shaffer’s name pops up in a few key places. She evidently helped edit Routh’s book, and she ran a small GoFundMe for his Ukrainian adventures. Social media citizen journalists connected Shaffer to the LinkedIn page to a same-named person who fit her profile and lives in Hawaii.

If it’s her, Kathleen works for a giant, international, publicly traded company you never heard of called Maximus.

According to its LinkedIn profile, Maximus Corporation —just wait, you can’t make this stuff up— is headquartered at 1600 Tysons Blvd, McLean, Virginia. Just six miles to the Northwest of Maximus HQ lies Langley, Virginia, where the United States Central Intelligence Agency is located:

It gets even better.

Maximus’s sparse profile on LinkedIn claims the company employs “10,000+”. The company’s website, Maximus.com, describes the company’s services like this:

Moving people, technology, and government forward
We provide transformative technology services, digitally
enabled customer experiences, and clinical health services
that change lives.

I defy you to explain exactly what the heck this company does from that description. But I bet it involves tons of money previously owned by taxpayers. Fortunately, Maximus has a YouTube explainer video linked right on its home page. I’ll give you one guess what is most heavily featured in its short promo video. Covid vaccines. I told you that you can’t make this stuff up. And wait till you see what else they say, like about helping relocate ‘desperate asylum seekers’ into the US:




In the clip, Maximum brags about training twenty thousand CDC workers, training them about the covid shots within the first 60 days. So it was in the covid shot deal right out of the gate, up to its corporate neck. That’s who trained the CDC. In another, more recent video, Maximus describes helping the Department of Defense “modernize” its technology systems.

ChatGPT said “Maximus Corporation has significant connections to the U.S. security state.”

It is difficult to imagine what unemployed ex-contractor Ryan Routh and Ms. Shaffer might have in common. But love is a mysterious thing. Assuming we have the correct Kathleen Shaffer in Hawaii who funded Ryan Routh’s Ukrainian adventures, it is very weird she works for a murky, security state-connected, multinational corporation located just down the street from the Central Intelligence Agency.

It takes longer to drop the kids off at school than drive from Maximus to CIA HQ. I’m just saying.

But nevermind! It’s probably just a coincidence. Matt Gaetz’s interview of Director Berger ended with his question why, like the FBI before it, Homeland Security also declined to follow up with investigating Ryan Routh. Director Berger didn’t know, but promised to find out.

The guy is such an obvious FSB glowie he's visible from the fucking orbit: travel to Ukraine wrapped in the US flag and gave interviews to Western morons ... err... jornos in the central square , tried to assosiate himself with Foreign Legion - got brushed off, tried to do the same with Azov Regiment - got brushed off, tried to misrepresent himself as a recruiter - was told to stop it, eventually left the country (or got kicked out) and then staged an "assasination attempt" with an SKS. SKS, Karl! This is who and how of presidential assasinations if you really mean to do it and shit not coming back to bite you.🤡

Fox’s story recounted Routh’s decades of run-ins with police, his fraudulent check charges, numerous firearms violations, that time he had an armed standoff with police, his traffic tickets like driving without a license, and even a 2002 charge for having an explosive device and fully automatic machine gun that both qualified as weapons of mass destruction under North Carolina law.

But —and this was the key point— despite all that criminal history, including multiple felony convictions, Fox’s story did not mention Routh serving a single day in jail. Nor did it mention any mental health treatment, voluntary or involuntary. The reason Fox’s headline said Routh played “cat and mouse,” was because despite arresting and convicting him any number of times, they never actually got him. Not really.

And … what was he doing with explosives and a fully automatic machine gun in 2002? Apparently, Routh got pulled over for an expired tag, and the cops saw his weapons when Routh grabbed one. Routh fled, and the standoff occurred. Somehow Routh never went to jail for that. The cops never would’ve found the gear absent the expired tag.

But where had Routh been going?

Retired Greensboro Police Department Officer Eric Rasecke, who knew Routh in North Carolina, said Routh believed nobody could touch him:

"Routh's attitude was that he was above everybody. He could do what he wanted," Rasecke
said. "It didn't matter. He was pretty entitled. ... He ran his mouth quite a bit about how he
could get off and how he owned a successful business and nobody could do anything to
him and [how] he knew everybody in Greensboro."

How did Routh get the idea he was untouchable? Maybe, and I’m only guessing here, maybe the reason Routh felt like he was untouchable is because he was, in fact, untouchable. Untouchable the way an intelligence asset is untouchable. Untouchable the way Jeffrey Epstein was untouchable before and at the time of his first arrest and his sweetheart plea deal.

In other words, Routh’s criminal history is consistent with the theory of Routh as an asset. Just saying.

Like, DUHHHHHHHHH! Since DHS, FBI and CIA are the ones sending the assassin teams out. I think that Trump's group are playing decoy and kill the teams behind the scenes. Let them play out the patsy drama for empty theater and distraction. Is that two kill teams down and three to go? There seems to be undue consternation amongst the 3 letters that the traditional methods are being comm'd and quenched. Would you call that the Q learning curve since JFK?
