Deep State Democrats and the Continuing Attempts to Kill President Trump
By John Kass
September 18, 2024
Let me get this straight. Sunday was the second time in just weeks that hardcore political leftist Democrats have tried to assassinate former President Donald Trump. It is obvious that they want him dead. They’ve wanted him dead for a long time.
The question you must ask yourselves now is this: Why?
Shrugging it away as simple political hatred, rage and revenge is just not good enough. There’s more here. You know this. There’s more at stake than a simple why and bruised feelings. Dig deeper, think deeper than that. America needs and expects more of you now.
You don’t need to be an expert in the cynicism of Chicago politics to know there’s more. You’re not an oblivious child reaching for presents.
What triggers the left-wing media? Outrage and their ego.
They’re outraged by sarcastic memes about illegal migrants eating cats and geese. They’re upset at those memes from “unsubstantiated” political remarks that mock the Democrats and Vice President Kamala Harris and President Joe Biden for overwhelming a small town in Ohio. What is “substantiated” is that Biden and Harris have sent an unwanted 20,000 or so impoverished migrants from violent Haiti to Springfield, OH. Yes, this an outrage! The Democrats will not be ridiculed, especially not with memes.
But a president murdered before an election? That doesn’t stoke media’s indignation.
“Today’s apparent assassination attempt comes amid increasingly fierce rhetoric on the campaign trail itself,” said NBC’s Lester Holt. “Mr. Trump, his running mate JD Vance, continue to make baseless claims about Haitian immigrants in [Springfield] Ohio.”
And former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, who kicked off the Democrat’s phony “Russia Russia Collusion” investigation to cripple Trump’s presidency in 2016 after he defeated her, also blamed the victim hours after Trump was almost killed a second time. Democrats are constantly on the lookout against victim blaming or shaming, unless the victim is Republican. Clinton argued the most important thing is that the news media is not doing enough to portray Trump as a threat to democracy.
“The object in this case is Donald Trump,” Clinton told left wing media mouthpiece Rachel Maddow. “His demagoguery. His danger to our country and the world.”
Then Hillary went on to express the need for the government to crack down on what she considers to be offensive political speech.
Then the wife of a former failed impeachment witness against Trump–a pro-Ukrainian Democrat–also mocked Trump and had great fun on X, formerly Twitter.
“No ears were harmed. Carry on with your Sunday afternoon,” Rachel Vindman, the wife of Alexander Vindman posted on X. No ears were harmed?
It was repulsive, yes but also revealing about just how far those Democrats who fear and hate Trump and his supporters will go. You might ask yourselves a common-sense question:
Former President Barrack Obama has big ears. If, God-forbid, a crazed unhinged Republican tried to blow off Obama’s head with a sniper bullet on national television and clipped the ear, would Vindman’s sarcasm be tolerated?
If there was a second failed attempt would media blame Obama for pushing left wing policy that most of the country detests? Would they blame Obama and say it’s his fault for provoking the assassin? And would they mock his big ears?
They wouldn’t dare. They’d be rounded up by the mob, and consider themselves lucky if they were only tarred and feathered. Any news program harboring people with such hateful ani-Obama views would be cancelled. And all advertisers sponsoring those programs would immediately denounce those hateful views.
After the second assassination attempt in Florida, network television continued broadcasting the football games from the NFL. Would that have happened had Obama been twice targeted? Or Kamala Harris? Or Clinton herself?
No.
The networks would have gone wall-to-wall with news. The games would wait. But on Sunday the football games could not wait.
A few years ago in the so-called “summer or love,” the American people watched in horror as the hard left orchestrated hundreds of riots that burned the cities down in an insurrection against Trump, and they watched as the anti-Trump media pronounced those riots to be “mostly peaceful.”
Trump was almost assassinated July 13 at an outdoor rally in Butler, Pa. Trump was wounded by a sniper but another man, a Pennsylvania father, Corey Competore was killed by the sniper as Competore tried to shield his wife and children. Trump was hit in the ear. His head was almost blown up on national television. The sniper Thomas Matthew Crooks, 20, was shot and killed after he had almost murdered Trump. Crooks’ body was almost immediately cremated and the feds still can’t tell us a motive. They’re obfuscating and covering up. I don’t like to write that but they leave me little choice.
And then just a few days ago, a second attempt to kill Trump.
You’ve heard about the second assassin, pro-Ukrainian roofing contractor from Hawaii and North Carolina Ryan Wesley Routh? He is alleged to have stalked Trump at the Trump International golf course in Florida with a scope equipped AK-47, and a go-pro video camera with which to broadcast the assassination. He doesn’t know Florida. And Trump’s Sunday golf match was unannounced. So how did Routh know to stake out the 6th hole on Saturday night, and wait 12 hours?
Is there a mole in the Secret Service or above?
Routh, who tried to recruit mercenaries including Iranians to fight in Ukraine against Russians. And he’d talk about his desire to kill Trump and other world leaders. He waited 12 hours overnight near the 6th hole. He even had snacks. A shot with that rifle at close range WITH A SCOPE would have been easy, like a three-inch putt. A U.S. Secret Service agent who noticed a rifle barrel apparently fired his hand gun and Routh ran off and tried to drive away. He is now in custody and has been charged.
Media cheerleaders–including some on Fox News–applauded the bravery of the lone Secret Service agent. That’s good. He or she deserves our applause and a nation’s thanks. But for an armed assassin to get so close is a complete and absolute failure of the Secret Service. The top brass of the U.S. Secret service won’t get applause from me. Not after this, not after failing twice in a matter of a few weeks. Once again the feds have dropped the ball. We can’t afford to indulge them. The future of our nation is at stake.
Alejandro Mayorkas, the weasel Democrat political hack who runs the U.S. Department of Homeland Security–the federal agency that oversees the Secret Service has no answers. He is ostensibly in “control” of the border, the same porous border that had Kamala Harris as “border czar,” and he lied to us for years, saying the border was secure as at least 15 million illegals (many of them criminals) crossed over and began accepting federal taxpayer supported handouts.
For Americans over the next 50 days, we will hold our breath, because it is clear there is so much hate directed at President Trump that it seems only a matter of time until they get him. What they want is his silence and he won’t give it to them. He won’t bend the knee. He won’t kiss their hand and seek mercy.
“These serial assassination attempts unfortunately, occur in a weary context of Russian collusion, laptop disinformation, state ballot removal and lawfare,” writes our great historian Victor Davis Hanson. “And they are starting to reflect a larger environment of justifying extra-legal means to achieve the ends of ending Trump’s presidency and later reelection by any means means necessary.”
By any means necessary.
For the last nine years or so, Deep State Democrats and their corporate media lickspittles from Joe Biden and Kamala Harris to those at NBC and MSNBC, ABC, CBS, and the New York Times, The Washington Post, and have argued that Trump is a danger to democracy. That he’s some Hitler. Or a Stalin. He’s an “existential threat,” says Joe Biden. The Republican never-Trumpers want a bullet in him. So do the others, as CNN and the rest of them blame Trump.
“He’s a danger to our security,” whispers Joe Biden, invitingly to all the deranged out there addicted to left wing media hate.
What happens when a political party and journalists portray a man as a dangerous threat, a Hitler, a Stalin? That is begging someone to kill him. Perhaps they will.
So is all this about the Deep State’s animus toward Donald Trump?
No.
It’s about the Deep State and control. If you haven’t read the essays by my brother Nicholas Kass on the Deep State–in the American Conservative and American Greatness–you should read them before it’s too late.
The American Deep State has been test marketing what they want to to Trump and the rest of us for years.
Our desire for American liberty and freedom was test-marketed when Americans embraced the Patriot Act; when people were celebrated for saying they really didn’t mind if the “intelligence community searched their cell phones without warrants, when Americans were encouraged to say they had nothing to hide; when James Clapper, Obama’s director of national intelligence, lied to Congress saying the Obama administration did “not wittingly” collect telephone records of Americans; when the Biden Justice Department began taking notes on American parents concerned with what their children were learning at school and were listed as potential “domestic terrorists.”
And when Biden’s feds sought to enter Roman Catholic churches and keep an eye on pro-life Catholics, and voters appeared to shrug that off, it was test marketed. And through it all the media doesn’t hold Harris accountable as early voting in the Battleground states has already begun. The BLM riots to glorify a narcotics addict named George Floyd, elevated to secular sainthood as the Democrats weakened law and order? These riots were pronounced to be “mostly peaceful” by leftist broadcast media outlets CNN and MSNBC. Again, the Deep State learned how far it could go.
There are so many examples of this, it boggles the mind. It could fill a book. It all comes at us in strident wave after strident wave, carried by the shrill bullhorn of the Deep State’s Democrat Media Complex. They’ll steal Trump’s ideas and make them their own. They’ll make him as toxic as possible. It’s not that they care about America. They don’t. They care about it only if the can control it.
Trump is no Orange Jesus. I’ve never believed in politicians that way. They are not saviors, neither “reform mayors” or Chicago aldermen are saviors. Senators with press agents writing books about them are not saviors. Instead, I believe in God and in the power of the Constitution of the United States, in a nation that reveres free speech and would never move to crush an idea that threatened the state.
We saw what happened when the Democrats created a plaster messiah out of Obama, and there and yet there are enough flaws in and around Trump to fill many volumes. But then I hear Harris’s word salads defending her indefensible positions, I consider Trump. With Harris I don’t see much of a choice. It’s obvious to me that Kamala Harris and her fool of a running mate will give free speech up to be crushed. They’ll do exactly what they’ve falsely accused Trump of doing by their juvenile projections that fool no one who has read history and studied politics.
Trump wasn’t the authoritarian. That’s all projection of the hard left. Free speech is what offends today’s Democrats. It didn’t used to offend them. Now it does and what they find offensive–meaning anything or anyone with whom they disagree will be branded misinformation and throttled and left for dead by the roadside as they march on. This is the hard left, and they have not changed since the days when the Mensheviks were devoured by the Bolsheviks.
What does the Deep State want? What they’ve always wanted, what they wanted in Orwell’s novel “1984.” But this is no novel, this is your life and your nation’s life. Now, in 2024, the Deep State wants silence and acquiescence from Trump. They want to control the troublesome thoughts of troublesome people. And they’re already trying to kill him. He will not kneel. Don’t be surprised if there is chaos at the polling places, particularly in battle ground states . They’ll do what they have to do to get what they want. As I’ve said, they’ve done a great deal of test marketing to see how far they can take it.
We are the lab rats in their experiment.
They want complete control of what goes on in America, in what we once called the home of the brave and the land of the free.
And all we can do as American patriots to stop them is vote.
So I’m asking you: vote.
Vote like American lives and freedom depend on it. Because they do. Without free speech there is no freedom.

Thanks John. I am going to vote. And when i do and put the paper ballot into the machine, all i get is a number saying I voted, no traceability or information to me as to what was read /who was incremented off it. An electronic promise that everything is fine. Wink wink.
What is notable about our national anthem is the first ends in a question. Every election we try to answer it. There are no assurances the answer will be “yes”.
I wonder if Hillary ” what-does-it-matter?” Clinton will demand that shrill and humorless Kathy Griffin be put on a terrorist watch list for demanding the decapitation of President Trump?
Or, am i just whistling past Benghazi?
It is appalling that every talking head in the press and the written media uses the word “apparent” when describing the second assassination attempt. That single word says so much.
I am no expert, certainly not at six in the morning with coffee just starting my day, but I’m pretty sure the “alleged” assassin caught red-handed? His last name is Routh, not Rouse. I bet it’s your spellchecker. Mine hates me, too. I still use one of those old-fashioned word list books, just to show the spellchecker it’s wrong. Routh wouldn’t have been in the spellchecker though.
It should be noted that Routh has only been charged with possession of a weapon illegally (he’s a convicted felon), and possessing a weapon with a partially removed serial number. Don’t hand me the garbage that the Powers that Be need to develop a case for murder. He wasn’t meandering to church on Sunday with his rifle and scope, taking the 12-hour scenic route.
Hopefully, the whole MAGA thing is too big to rig come Election Day. Hopefully, my paper ballot that doesn’t go into a machine gets really and truly counted. Hopefully, the rank and file that is poll watching is now filled by Republicans who won’t do as they are told and go home at 1 am on November sixth. That’s a lot on which to hope.
So besides voting, maybe people could participate. Volunteer to watch drop-off ballot collection boxes if your state those, particularly in the wee hours of the night and morning. Train to be a poll watcher. It’s probably a little late to catch poll worker or election judge training, but poll watching doesn’t take much. And pray. A lot!
(And please excuse spelling errors.)
fixed. i called the neurologist, but they said there is no pill for stupid. I misspelled the name and locked in stupid for the day. Fixed it. Thank you. But I’m stupid. Thanks Lori
I think the biggest reason Trump is so feared by the Deep State is that he’s exposed it! He’s shown how deeply corrupt the Federal Government has gotten under the democrats.
bingo.
by that reasoning, they wanted my brother Nick gone too. I’ll check on him now.
Thank you for spelling this all out.
Good morning. My favorite emails are from John Kass. I appreciate his writing and that of his followers. I don’t comment because I wish I could write as thoughtfully as John Kass and all of you do here. I will be sure to vote, but here in Illinois it feels like it doesn’t matter. The choice is all about freedom to speak freely. The choice is also about extreme policy differences. As a grandparent I pray for our country and that she has a brilliant future.
A loved one of mine works for The Atlantic magazine. This week they hold their Atlantic Festival. Most of the speakers hold leftist views. I know I could listen as a subscriber, but I won’t. I do not like most articles in this magazine, but I subscribe to help my loved one. I will NOT renew my subscription. The October issue arrived yesterday. I know the “rag” bragged of the creativity of the cover. It evokes Ray Bradbury. I’m from Waukegan, met the author and read many of his books. I believe the cover is outrageous and provokes hatred. My hands will start shaking if I go to pick it up to read. Not sure if I will. I had to put it away. This cover alone proves the hatred of the media.
May God Bless America. May God Bless Trump-Vance.
I don’t know here. I was always taught that the idea the founding fathers had when it came to “free speech” was not saying Karen is an idiot or criticize a school board but the ability to criticize government without fear of reprisal. You know, opposite Communism for example. You would think what Hillary Bigmouth says what she says shows her ignorance and disdain for the Constitution as it is written and intended. The woman makes me sick. Yet millions froth and bow to her feet and kiss Obama’s ring.
If the fix is in, and you know it’s in the works and it will be tried, unfortunately voting won’t do any good. I’m not saying not to, I will – I think. But if the process isn’t legitimate it means whatever I do behind the curtain of the camera watched (I’m sure) box means crap. No, I’m afraid with the creation of the Covid nightmare – the nightmare that mentally poisoned so many, the nightmare that made so many mindlessly loyal, narrow minded, divisive and toxic, the nightmare that manipulated the last election and gave us what we have right now – the precedent was sent. It really might be too late to turn back and correct that horrid error.
And you could bet those narrow minded, divisive and toxic fools will be the first to cry about it when their foolishness becomes reality. And cry and cry about it loud. Look in the mirror folks. It may be the last chance to do it.
We know the Iranians have sworn to kill Trump. That’s the perfect gift to the Deep State. They can kill Trump “because he is a threat to democracy” and have the perfect alibi- “This was the work of the Iranians!” I believe the mealy-mouthed politicians call this “plausible deniability.”
John, wonderful and frightening column. Unfortunately, it is mostly the choir who will read it. The masses are being led to their demise and ours. God help us, please.
Yianni,
If only we still lived in Chicago, then we could vote early…and often. It only took 20 years to finally remove my late parents from the voter rolls after their passing! Imagine that! (I wonder how many times they “voted” during tat time!) But now we live in the burbs, and folks here are apparently better at math, than the “poll watchers” in the late great city of Chicago. Of course mainstream media won’t rock the boat and actually print or broadcast actual news of the day. It’s scripted and edited by socialist editors and/or owners, so as to no offend the hand that feeds – the socialist party of America, and leftist advertisers. Simple pablum to the masses. I am always dumbfounded at the way the news is “presented” by these mainstream media outlets. Strictly far left sided, and blaming Trump for all the world’s ills – even though he’s not been president for four years now. God forbid we lay the blame at the feet of Malaka Kamala and Joe mumbles. We should lay it at the feet of the “savior” Obama, who’s the wizzard behind the curtain, directing the current socialist party’s efforts to eliminate Trump, who, along with Hillary, is fomenting enough hatred at him to convince some crackpot he must be knocked off. Unfortunately, it’s apparently working! All I know is when Trump was president, I could afford to gas up my car; my IRA wasn’t tanking; the border was secure as we were’nt inundated with illegals and criminals pouring in from everywhere; Chicago wasn’t overrun with crime; world leaders realized their free ride for security was at an end, and our adversaries couldn’t “peg” Trump so they were wary of him – is this a bad thing? The left is scared because Trump knows “where all the bodies are buried,” and could potentially expose them all! So explain to us chumbolones, how Trump is a threat to democracy….I’ll wait….
Good article.
Some points.
I was watching football this past Sunday, I believe local Fox channel. THEY DID BREAK IN WITH THE NEWS CONFERENCE BY LAW ENFORCEMENT. I saw it. After conference they went back to game.
NFL did NOT cancel any games on weekend of JFK assassination. Capitalism must go on!
If the govt wants you dead, ie by CIA, etc YOU WILL BE KILLED SUCCESSFULLY, that was stated by former CIA agent on Piers Morgan show. BUT just maybe, the Secret Service is deliberately ‘laying down’ or ‘acting slowly’ on these nut jobs.
When Trump ran no one thought he could possibly win. And the deep state thought that even if he did win THEY COULD CONTROL HIM. THEY COULDNT! HE IS AGAINST UNNECESSARY WARS THEREFORE AGAINS THE CONGRESSIONAL MILITARY INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX (AS ORIGINALLY COINED BY EISENHOWER. He was forced by members of Congressional GOP to drop the word Congressional). He is a danger to the deep state. He is no longer trusted. Cant be manipulated. Therefore, a danger to the deep states existence. They have switched their allegiance to KKK (Kackling Kommie Kamala) who is a complete DEI stupid air head.
The so called news is scary. This is getting to Goebels like. The Big Lie repeated over and over..
Even if he gets in and he causes problems he will be whacked SUCCESSFULLY. NO QUESTION
I would like to again say see the movie ‘Am I a Racist’. A Matt Walsh movie about the absurdity on ‘white fragility’ as it is called. It’s very funny but then you realize it’s true, then it becomes very bizzare scary.
A MUST SEE. HURRY BCUZ IF IT GETS POPULAR IT WILL GET YANKED. AT MULTIPLE THEATERS. I SAW IT AT AMC, NORTBROOKCP COURT.
The Deep State is getting more desperate by the day; Gee, where did he hide his car for 12 hrs? There was no mention of that.
All the information that the Fumbling Bureau of Inegilibles collects on these attempts magically dries up!
The new (Ha-Ha) FBI director is so deep-state that it is deplorable. They are running out of time, and The Democrat Propaganda machine is also getting desperate. Disney David Muir has become such a joke on the news, and it’s almost like watching SNL News Update.
Why doesn’t the local ABC7 “I” Team question Mayor Big Johnson more? Just Chumbalones there? Liz Nagy seems to have a set reporting on the Shotspotter system, or as Big J calls it, a Walkie-Talkie on a pole! Well, that’s for another column.
Fantastic column, John. I hope you are doing well. Keep up the outstanding Journalism. You are an excellent example for others.
Ok, we are just past the halfway point of September and I’ve started taking notes of who I want to nominate for the Golden Moutza of the Month so I won’t forget at the end of the month. The problem is every few days another candidate pops up. How on earth are we going to pick only one. I’m glad that’s your job, not mine. Keep up the good work.
It’s a good thing the Secret Service is now allowing for backpack storage underneath the podium when Trump is speaking. All bags must be unsearched of course. The heads of the new security team Boris Badenov flanked by his assistant Natasha ” ..we are not here to create disorder, we are here to PRESERVE disorder..”
First we get moose, then we get squirrel.
Excellent reportage! Even as I read this there are reports of a security breach this morning of the perimeter where Trump is holding his rally tonight in Long Island with explosives found in a car near the Hempstead Turnpike and a man running off into the woods. It is going to be particularly unsettling until Nov. 5th. Buckle up, people! But most importantly pray for President Trump because we are in uncharted waters. Pray up! Vote up! 🙏🇺🇸
There are somewhere north of 75 million MAGA voters, per 2020 tallies, with or without Trump at the head.
If there IS an assassination, there are still too many of us to mete out what was done to Trump. We aren’t going anywhere willingly. The Deep State must be made to.
Great column John. I will vote. Always do. I was taught it was my civic duty.
God bless America and keep us free.
100%
“…[Politicians] are not saviors. Instead, I believe in God and in the power of the Constitution of the United States, in a nation that reveres free speech…”
Thank you again, John, for a great column and calling it what it really is.
I copy the ending from Mark Olszewski’s comment . . . a prayer we should say as we consider all of this . . .
God bless America and keep us free.
Spot on again John. I wonder where the useless, lying director of Home Land Security is and what he is doing about these domestic threats on a former president. I wonder what the omni-potent FBI is doing about anything concerning assassination attempts, mysterious shooters, monitoring hate speech against political candidates, & possible conspiracies. Doesn’t seem like the FEEBS can ever get to the bottom of anything these days. I voted for Trump 8 years ago because he wanted to “drain the swamp” as well as my for disdain for sleazy, insincere Hillary. I’m afraid the “deep state” is just too deep.
Great column, John. As always, I must point to my liberal friends here in our town. I texted this friend on Sunday about the attempt. She replied, “he wasn’t in any Great danger.” Really? An AK 47 pointed at you from a few hundred yards away? And yes, Mayorkas is a weasel. A big cue-ball head weasel.
Excellent column, as always, laying out the reasons Trump is so hated. However, I believe the Deep State is on both sides of the aisle. And there is the problem. I vote Republican because they are as close to conservatism as we have at this moment. But let’s not fool ourselves into thinking that the GOP backs Trump. The GOP is worried that another Trump victory will mean the exposure of the depth of their swampiness too.
Those who sway elections are the 5%-7% of “undecideds.” Either they will come out in force or stay at home. This election is too important for any of us to stay at home. And though we may not like many of those on the GOP ticket, we must vote GOP down the line to save America from the brink of destruction. Politicians aren’t gods or monarchs or celebrities. They are our employees. We need to be more proactive in voting instead of thinking there will be a next time around.
Glad to see you back, Erin. Missed your wisdom. Hope all is well.

So now the thought police are saying it’s ok to try to kill someone if you don’t like what they say? After all it’s their fault for saying it.
WTH? Really WTH?
In my mind live the words of Katie Couric
That all the Trump supporters should be deprogrammed.
I’ve come to a horrible conclusion that they will not stop the attempts on Trumps life. They want to succeed.
They want a civil war. Then they will rule by martial law. Thus total control.
We are living in a scary time. When supposed intelligent people spew garbage.
Really Lester Holt? Have you lost your mind? Is the money worth selling your soul?
Thank you for your words. Your words express what many of us are thinking.
Giant Jenga self worth, the Democrat. Keep pulling out the bricks JK News. It will fall, we just have to be as smart as a beaver, gnawing a tree, to know which ways it’s going to fall
Bravo!
…praying…
Probably your best column yet John. And here we have Howard Stern telling his national audience that he doesn’t hate President Trump but hates those who vote for him. Then he compares President Trump to the rise in power of Adolph Hitler. The left is scared and anything to stop President Trump is on the table.
Yes. No doubt the Left hates him. However, no doubt the Left realizes that Trump is the only Republican Harris has a chance to beat. A Haley or a Youngkin – or perhaps even a DeSantis – would result in a Republican landslide come November. So I bet the Left is stuck with some cognitive dissonance when it comes to the Trumpster (they hate him and want to see him gone, but if he is gone then they lose). And as an aside, John, this election is a referendum in a mere six states due to the electoral college, so your “please vote” plea plays well in a high school civics class (you know where they teach myths like a “separation of powers” and “checks and balances”) but is far from reality. Maybe your plea is more accurate for the down ballot candidates, but certainly not the top spot.
One aspect of this all not spoken of too much: when Mr. Trump ran the first time he said, several times, that he would open all of the records of the JFK assassination and make them public. Some number of weeks after he got into office, he offered a vaguely worded statement about how the public would perhaps be better served if the file were to remain closed for “a while yet”…slid over it like grease on a pig. He brought it up again several weeks ago, saying that when he is re-elected he will open all of those files. Someone doesn’t want that material open, and “someone” knows that now he’ll have no reason to NOT do it…..either some of the principals have died, or because he wouldn’t be running for re-election he could risk it – – – something has changed, but I’d be willing to bet you all a ham sammich that that file just might be at the bottom of more of this than we’re paying attention to right now. PLEASE VOTE!
Here and in one other report, I’ve seen mention of the fact that Trump’s golf game was not announced, so how did Routh know to get their 12 hours early and set up his nest? Will we get an answer to that? Likely not, given how little we still know even about Crooks. I hope people keep on top of this question. I hope Florida can keep control over the investigation into Routh. I do not have a lot of hope.
John, excellent column again! You are spot on with the “Deep State test marketing” of what they can get away with! Again, hit the nail on the head with conducting experiments on us like guinea pigs! What they really are trying to ascertain is how many citizens who can vote still retain rational thinking capabilities in their brain frontal cortex. The cognitive dissonance of so many democratic voters and their loving the “joy” theme from Harris without any explanation of the last 3 1/2 years is indicative of people who have lost much of their capacity fir rational thought. They are manipulated by the media via the limbic portion of the brain (irrational emotion based thinking) that they primarily rely on – where the cognitive dissonance comes from (rational vs. emotional), so they go with emotional response. The media in general have been perfecting the art of driving emotional responses or distracting people. The media and democratic party partly hate Trump for his callibg out their lack of common sense rational thought! We are in perilous times for the future of freedom and liberty in the nation!

Time to fight back
And to think that at age 25, in 1991, this guy was a hero. He was awarded the Law Enforcement Oscar by the police association of Greensboro NC for coming to the aid of a screaming woman and single handedly fighting off a potential rapist.
Excellent column John! One of your best! The FBI still hasn’t released information from the first assassination attempt. I am hoping since the second attempt occurred in Florida that Governor DeSantis with his independent review will determine if the second assassination was the result of outside support and will scrutinize this with full disclosure because the American people and Trump deserve a full account.
I am so sick and disgusted by democrats. There sick smugness even descends to the democrats in my family and acquaintances. God protect President Trump and see him into his third term as legally elected president. God protect our country!
I must correct myself: See him into his second term of his third legally elected race.
The greatest decision I ever made, when I went back to college to finish a long-awaited degree, was to take an elective class on the history of liberty. It opened up my eyes to the long blood-stained path that mankind has followed to be free and to have that freedom and those innate natural-born rights recognized by kings and rulers and finally codified into law in our republics and democracies.
Men and women with far greater minds than Kamala Harris and Hillary Clinton have considered and debated liberty for centuries and have also considered what limited freedoms we are willing to give up to live side-by-side with one another in a civil society and under the social contract of our making and choosing.
American politicians have no constitutional right to take any action or position on the free speech of the people and of our press. The US Constitution and our government did not grant or award us the right of freedom of speech, expression, and assembly, it recognized these as inalienable elements of what it means to be a free human being.
Why otherwise rational people want to surrender those rights to career machine politicians and their cronies, or anyone else for that matter, is beyond me. I recently watched a George Carlin comedy routine where he said, the last thing politicians want are “well-educated and well-informed citizens capable of making informed decisions”. Kass’ comments ring true, but we have moved beyond the experimental stage. In competing for the minds of people, the politicians and social engineers know that if they can insight strong positive and negative emotions, it overwhelms the logical parts of our brains. It’s very difficult to undo that level of daily reinforced brainwashing, but I am not willing to give up the fight.
With the installation of Kamala Harris, we may have the first elected president who didn’t get a single vote in a primary and possibly in the general election. This brings to mind what Stalin said years ago, “It doesn’t matter who they vote for, they always vote for us.”
Regardless of my feelings on so many issues and challenges facing our country, I can’t knowingly vote for a party which is directly telling me they are going to bypass the constitution and their authority and take away my liberties and that I should be thankful for the protections that will provide me. No thanks.
