Kimberly Cheatle. Her name begins with C-H-E-A-T. Let that sink in.

Why was she Milwaukee last night? Trying to finish the job?

Expand full comment

Surrounded by her OWN agents. Very much in public. Not in command center talking to the field. That’s very telling.

They hate Trump and want him gone. I fear they won’t miss next time.

#2 - Republicans have notoriously weak discipline and are reliably fickle. Mittens is just so devoured by jealousy he can’t keep his mouth shut. I hope the commitment and energy is sustained through the election (there’s a lot of ground work to do yet) and through inauguration and staffing agencies. There are a lot of private fiefdoms these public faces will want to protect in private. But golly can we keep him alive and get him inaugurated.

This thing at Secret Service is spiraling out of control. She has to go. The conspiracy theories are increasing in ferver, and they have a certain level of plausibility to them that will be hard to overcome the longer they are allowed to stay out there. Cheatle needs to leave, but I'm thinking there is something about Jill Biden holding it up. And that is fueling the accusations about the WH's involvement on Saturday.

Right now everyone is outraged that the SS chief was a close friend of Jill Bidens and she was instrumental in the woman getting the job. But this is no unusual in DC. It is common practice to really. The people who helped you win get the jobs. The close friends get the jobs. Not right but it is an issue for both parties going back to the early 1900's when the practice really became prevalent. This is part of the core reason the federal government is so incompetent. Pair that with regulations that make it so difficult to get rid of people who under perform and now you see how we got here.

If you are a Democrat, you don't have to know anything to work in Biden's administration. It seems to me this is more by design than an accident. But I keep asking myself why?

After that failed assassination attempt by the goofy kid on the roof and (if the sound science is correct) at least one other shooter, you can start seeing some similarities to the Kennedy Killing.

As Trumps Power continues to expand, the Deep State/3 Letter Agencies will now start using more flamboyant tactics to get at him and they clearly don’t care how many other Citizens they have to kill to make it happen. That increases the chance of really nasty stuff like explosives.

Remember this folks, along with all the other shots at our countries, our continent and ourselves we’ve had to take laying down for the last 4 years.

Keep your eyes peeled and if you see something say something, and keep saying it till something changes.

Headline: Biden has Covid. Yeah, but in this case, Covid is made up of Schumer, Jeffries, Pelosi, et al. And as usual, their actions are fatal. They spell SO LONG JOE. By the end of July, Biden will have been replaced by (as they say in MLB trades), a player to be named later. It doesn't matter who that is.

I've been pretty lucky; I joined Ann Coulter in predicting Trump in 2015, J.D. this year, and Trump winning in 2020 - which, of course, he did. I'm going to stick my neck out and predict that despite the lady's protesting too much, they will parachute in Big Mike to replace Alleged President Joe Stolen on the 2024 ballot. Heels-up Harris cannot beat Trump, but the only person who can replace her without Antifa's spilling blood in the streets is Big Mike; she ticks all the boxes - the right melanin and the right genitals (maybe). The two most reliably gullible voting blocs - blacks and women - will vote for her. She can beat The Orange Man, or at least get within credibly-deniable cheating range.

She(?) is reputed to be the ultimate hypergamous female, lazy and contented with her cushy, privileged, and wealthy life - uninterested or maybe even DIS-interested in politics, but she may be willing to be the next puppet - like Biden - so as to ensure the jailings under a DJT administration never happen.

I believe the Covid claim is a ruse to keep FJB under wraps to avoid another gaffe-filled speaking engagement. Also, it could be the prelude to his exit from the campaign. The question I have is who in the Democrat Party wants to be the sacrificial lamb to run against DJT. The Dems are in disarray and a candidate swap at this late juncture will only add to the ball of confusion that is the Democrat Party.

BTW, I also believe that if Joe departs the campaign, Jill will not let him resign as POTUS, but will insist that he finish his term of office. That woman is obsessed with her status as FLOTUS and will ride that horse as long as she can and not give it over to Kamala.

Great post. Thanks so much. This country has been blessed with leaders at critical phases who have been able to lead us through travails and tribulations.

As you point out, the "D"s, which are now controlled by anarcho-communist/Islamist elements, will stop at nothing to defeat President Trump and MAGA, so we should expect Lady McBiden, as Naomi Wolf calls her, and the Unhumans who populate her party and most of our institutions, to try repeatedly to remove President Trump, and as many of us, possible.

I think Don may have hit on something huge with his American party name.

Rebranding AND renaming the Republican Party the AMERICAN Party is a pretty good idea.

Think about it.

Which party best represents and describes what average citizens of this country want and need? Which party has the policies that have the greatest chance in making this country something it isn’t now? And keep it that way down the road.

What would the Democrats come back with? The jackass party…. well they already own that. Maybe they could have the old Republican Party name and really confuse their supporters. The Democrats are now the Republicans?

We've had a week of positive and reassuring emotion binding us to the cause started by PDJT more than eight years ago. Feeling the power and thankfulness of God's grace never gets old. It never wears off. Like disciples, it is time we get up and move to the next village with our message.

It is time to get back to work for the cause. In doing so, we must be cognizant that the deep state will try to stop Trump by an means necessary and that threat has intensified since Saturday. Chuck Schumar said it most succinctly, "Let me tell you, you take on the intelligence community, they have six ways from Sunday at getting back at you." Today, that Intelligence Community is really pissed.

The number of oddities and actions by the administration screams it was an inside job from the deep state. We can't let Cheatle be a distraction because it was executed above her head.

Seems like a new day dawning to me. Of course, every day begins with a promise of something new and better (at least most of them) but often the promise is left unfulfilled as the day progresses and night falls again. Jesus told us something about this when He said, "I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work". Let us pray that there is sufficient daylight available to get our work done and replace the cabal of traitors currently holding office as well as their minions in the administrative state. Meanwhile, I have a few random thoughts about recent events. First, it seems that every time a photo of Crooks is shown by the media, it is the one of him as the gangly, goofy looking, sympathy-provoking adolescent, not the twenty year old assassin. Why is that? Personally, my reaction when I first saw that photo was a kind of sad sympathy, despite knowing he was no longer that boy but had turned into something completely and viciously diffferent. So, as usual, the media presents a narrative designed to evoke the "proper" emotional response. Quite reminiscent of the "gentle giant," Michael Brown, always shown in media portrayals as the smiling, inoffensive young boy rather than the hulking menace he was at the time of the incident.

Some of them, like the execrable Joy Reid or the harridans of "The View" persist, but to not much avail, thank God. Second, before I lost all my firearms in the tragic boating accident, I was a rather good shot. I had a .25-06 Winchester that was capable of 1 MOA accuracy. That is, at 100 yards, I could keep my shots in about a 1 inch diameter group. But that is far better accuracy than a typical AR15 platform rifle, which generally group at 2-3 MOA. Also, my results were from a solid rest with a fine Leupold dialed up to 20X and no time pressure or wind to deal with. Not exactly the same circumstances facing Crooks. So I believe that his hitting Trump was more a question of luck than skill, but as the man said, "I'd rather be lucky than good." Thank God things turned out the way they did.

You need to come shoot with me sometime. My favorite is my .243 Remington Model 600 groundhog gun; I call it "AT&T" because it will really Reach Out And Touch Someone, but my AR is quite accurate as well. A 400' shot at something the size of a man's head would be reasonable with open sights; a virtual gimme with any kind of scope. The President owes his life to a combination of serendipity and facing the worst marksman in North America. God moves in mysterious ways....

A little suppressive fire from the cops on-scene would have prevented this near-catastrophe; even if they couldn't hit the guy, just firing into the metal building would have alerted the Pantywaist Secret Service (PSSies) to do their jobs and take the President off stage.

Don’t assume he was the primary shooter. The chances are greater than zero that he was set up. If he hit someone fine, if he missed five times the grassy knoll guy would finish the job. The kid wasn’t coming out of this alive to tell tales

Yep - wanna bet we NEVER see the ballistics report on the bullets and whether they match his particular AR15?

So many more questions that we won't get answers to, unless Trump can win and start really draining the swamp, while vacuuming up truth in the process to determine who needs to go to prison.

Wonderful article! And yes, the sense of true “hope and change”, if you’ll pardon the expression, is palpable, even in places waaaay outside the convention floor.

America First is ascendant.

But, we must not let down our guard for the battle set before us is gargantuan!

Those smoky back rooms are barely breathable for the amount of plotting and planning taking place by those who see their days numbered. They will continue to stop at nothing, and the “cheat” is still massive threat.

Pray without ceasing!!! It most clearly and evidently is working! God bless and have mercy upon this country and us all.

🙏♥️♥️🙏
