FBI Now Investigating a "Hunting Stand" With a Clear Line of Fire to Air Force One's Landing Strip at Palm Beach Airport

What are these youthful No Kings Q-tip scamps up to now?

The US Secret Service is investigating what could be a sniper's nest or a hunting stand near an area where President Trump's Air Force One has recently been kept at Palm Beach International Airport, according to sources.

The suspicious stand, found Thursday, is in a tree and within the line of sight of the section of the airport where Trump exits the presidential jet, and was described to The Post by law enforcement sources as an odd collection of pipes.

There was no ammunition or explosives found, but it raised the service's alarm.

Authorities do not know yet whether it is a hunting stand or merely junk in a tree -- or has a more nefarious purpose, sources said.

The area could be used by hunters who go after invasive green iguanas, the sources added.

"Prior to the president's return to West Palm Beach, USSS discovered what appeared to be an elevated hunting stand within sight line of the Air Force One landing zone," FBI Director Kash Patel told Fox News, which first reported the story.

The investigation is more of a precaution, the sources said.

Wisconsin Democrats were tossed from a farmers market after a vile volunteer handed out "Is he dead yet?" bracelets -- including to a young child -- in an apparent reference to President Trump.

The Winnebago County Democratic Party will no longer host a table at the Oshkosh Farmers Market as incendiary rhetoric against Trump and his allies has ramped up since the Republican returned to the White House this year.

The latest instance of menacing words came when a volunteer handed out the hateful bracelet to an 8-year-old child, who then showed it to their mother on Sunday, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported.

Local mother Katy Neubauer called the bracelet "hate speech" against the president.

The child's mother, Katy Neubauer, was left stunned by the bracelet and dropped it back in the basket at the committee's table, which also had other anti-Trump material, according to the newspaper.

"It's hate speech. I mean, it's literally wishing death on somebody, which isn't appropriate in any scenario," the outraged mom told Fox 11 News.

Oshkosh Farmers Market manager Michelle Schmid-Schultz told the station it was the local Democratic committee that handed out the bracelets, which yielded about 10 complaints from patrons and broke market rules.

She said local party officials and the market agreed that the Winnebago Dems won't be back for the final two markets wrapping up the summer season.
