The Morning Report — 7/17/24
Good Morning Kids. The attempt on Trump's life over the weekend remains the top story and now there's a new wrinkle to add which Ace touched upon late yesterday. Evidently, intel sources are revealing that they were tipped off about an Iranian plot to take Trump out. And yet despite supposedly beefing up security around Trump this Crooks character was able to get up on a roof and get off a round on Trump. Rooftop slope notwithstanding.
The Trump campaign would not disclose whether it was made aware of the Iran threat. “We do not comment on President Trump’s security detail. All questions should be directed to The United States Secret Service,” the campaign said in a statement.
The Secret Service recently “added protective resources and capabilities to the former President’s security detail,” agency spokesperson Anthony Guglielmi said in a statement on Sunday.
Secret Service officials have warned the Trump campaign repeatedly against holding outdoor rallies, which pose greater risks than events to which the agency can better control access, people briefed on the matter said. The warnings have been more general in nature, the sources said.
Security concerns forced Trump’s campaign to halt spontaneous events where the Secret Service couldn’t sweep guests.
This is bullshit. That said, the Biden junta's close ties to Iran vis a vis the drive to make them the power brokers in the middle east and desire to abandon Israel, puts this in a very disturbing light, and cannot be dismissed. Trump back in power is not good news for Iran and of course Foggy Bottom.
With Trump’s security detail understaffed, under-resourced, and stretched to its limits, Biden’s security regime reportedly diverted even more resources to a hastily planned Jill Biden event that just happened to be in the area.
Biden’s security regime then ordered the most obvious assassination perch in the entire area to remain outside the main security perimeter.
Furthermore, Biden’s Secret Service director ordered law enforcement and counter-snipers OFF the roof the assassin used.
If that weren’t enough, Biden’s security regime also refused to block the line of sight from the assassin’s perch to Trump’s location. When law enforcement radioed in a suspicious person using a laser range finder at the building and even took photos of him, nothing was done to detain the assassin.
Meanwhile outside the RNC there were at least two incidents where an armed suspect was shot and killed and another armed with an AK-47 wearing a ski mask was apprehended.
So, even if a massive cheat fails and Trump wins, there is no way in hell the Left will ever cede one iota of power and influence, be it in government or anywhere in our society. And yet there are signs of trouble in worker's paradise. No not the true believers and unreachable brainwashed drones, but others like the working class, and even blacks and other disaffected reliable Democrats that realize everything they've been told is a lie. Time will tell. But what cannot go on will not go on. Maybe we are at that inflection point in history. Please God it's a point where a correction occurs, and not the plunge into the abyss.
TRUMP ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT AFTERMATH
- They kept the rooftop open, watched the shooter, kept Trump on the stage, and didn’t do a damn thing until after he had been shot. And we’re supposed to believe it was an innocent oopsie?

Cheatle: Police Snipers Were Not Put on Roof Where Trump Gunman Was Because It Was ‘Sloped’
- The intelligence, provided to U.S. authorities by a human source, prompted the Secret Service to ramp up protections for the former president in the weeks leading up to the shooting, several people briefed on the matter told CNN.

The Official Story On Trump’s Shooting Makes No Sense At All
- The old proverb that starts “be careful what you wish for” should have been considered over the past eight years by the political left. The “our democracy” crowd should have remembered what happened to the dog who caught the car before it started chasing it. Now the political left is trapped in a mess of its own making.

- Following the assassination attempt on former President Trump, Frum published an article in The Atlantic titled “The Gunman and the Would-Be Dictator.” It would be easy to go through his article line-by-line and offer the classic admonition that people who point fingers often have three pointing back at them at every period. And, indeed, that is what projection is all about.

POLITICS
- “He’s smart. What scares me is that he, although new to government, he’s only been elected for 18 months, he understands policy, and I think he’ll go to places if elected, that Trump doesn’t care about in government, and start making fundamental changes,” Del Percio told MSNBC host Jose Diaz-Balart, who asked her to explain.

- “Virginia is in play,” Democrat former Virginia Gov. L. Douglas Wilder told the embattled Post. “It is a close race. It’s a turnout election in Virginia.”
Poll — Donald Trump Jumps to 3-Point Lead in Virginia
- Another factor that overlays the Senate appointment is a successor for DeWine, who will be term-limited out in 2027. Ohio has been a move-up-the-ladder-and-wait-your-turn state for as long as I can remember, so both Yost and LaRose would be considered to have served their time in state government. That said, nothing has been the same since Trump came down the golden escalator in 2016, so the next race for governor could be a complete free-for-all with candidates we've never heard of jumping into the race.
Here Are the Top Contenders to Replace JD Vance in the Senate
- Now, with Trump’s announcement, Vance (born during the Reagan administration) becomes the first millennial to have a spot on a major-party presidential ticket. He’s part of a shift from the current political gerontocracy that rules Washington to a new generation of leaders who will inherit America’s most serious problems. Vance is in the vanguard.
Is Trump’s Pick Of J.D. Vance A Political Masterstroke? The Answer Is Yes
- . . . he wants to have a conversation with former President Donald Trump about how he is “going to have the biggest impact” on America, though he would consider accepting a potential appointment to the U.S. Senate should the Trump-Vance ticket win in November.

- Michael Goodwin: . ..the new party emerging before our eyes at the Milwaukee convention is one whose No. 1 focus is the well-being of working-class Americans. They are the forgotten people who elected Trump in 2016, and as he aims for the White House again, he is making it absolutely clear that they are the core constituency driving his agenda.
