when someone who is accomplished in their pursuits speaks about their subjects i find it to be a good source of major items to consider in drawing my conclusions;

Dallas Alexander, a veteran sniper whose team holds the world record for the longest confirmed sniper kill, has suggested that Thomas Matthew Crooks, the 20-year-old who attempted to assassinate former President Donald Trump at a rally on Saturday night, may have had inside help.

Alexander, who spent 14 years in a sniper team for the Canadian military providing close protection for major world leaders including the Canadian Prime Minister, shared his views in an Instagram post.

“I’m a retired sniper so because I’ve been asked so many times here’s my opinion on the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump,” he began, before delving into his analysis of the assassination attempt.

Having served in a tier one special operations unit called JTF2, Alexander is no stranger to high-stakes security scenarios. His experience includes providing security for VIPs in dangerous countries like Iraq and Afghanistan.

“I spent just about 17 years in the military, 14 of which, just about 14 of which we’re at a tier one special operations unit called JTF2. Our sniper team has the world record for the longest confirmed sniper kill. A huge part of our job while I was there and while I was a sniper was doing close protection for VIPs up to and including the Prime Minister, when he would go to dangerous countries like Iraq or Afghanistan, we would be in charge of that security,” said Alexander..........more........

i wonder who is calling for violence. perhaps this x video will reveal a magic eight ball sort of answer;

watch......... 

 seems plausible;

I posted this reply to a comment concerning the charges that could be brought forth against Mayorkas and Cheatle:

Mayorkas is in charge of the secret service. Based on testimonials from security experts, SOPs and protocols were ignored. Secret service agents were transferred from Butler to Pittsburgh for Jill Biden’s speech for 300 people. The secret service may have been derelict, but the truth is that Trump was set up, purposefully surrounded by poorly trained agents and the site was not secured.

Who authorized the transfer of secret service to Pittsburgh and who told the police sniper to stand down? The answers will lead to the charges for Mayorkas and Cheatle.

I think conspiracy rather than incompetence is the appropriate charge to start. This act of treason will not be forgotten prior to the election. This leaves the usurpers of the Republic few choices. I doubt they will surrender or leave the country. Their choices are still assassination, world war and financial collapse. And they will have no compunction in assassinating Biden and Harris to save themselves.

And when is the Senate going to commence impeachment hearings against Mayorkas?

 there are always questions about strange events. this shooting is certainly one and here's some more for your consideration;

It was a daring and sloppy move to attempt to assassinate President Trump given the revelations of the Kennedy assassination and the Dark Cabal enforcers we call the Mossad, the CIA and the FBI.

It stinks of desperation and it stinks of behavior hypnosis and grooming of a young man who looks eerily like the Sandy Hook shooter.  Nerd personified.  While facts remain sketchy at best, the same FBI that investigated the Russia Hoax, the Hunter laptop, and the 2020 bombs outside both democrat and republican headquarters, it is likely they will declare a Hinkley type conclusion.more.........

 and this would only apply if they had a 'maginot line' sort of border wall and only engaged in defense. remember this when you watch 'our leaders' continue to press russia for more war as they've been doing for all too many years to count;

NATO will need between 35 and 50 extra brigades to fully realise its new plans to defend against an attack from Russia, a military source told Reuters.

The source, speaking on condition of anonymity, declined to provide any more detail about the plans, which are secret. A brigade consists of between 3,000 and 7,000 troops, so generating 35 to 50 more such units would present a significant challenge..

In another sign of the scale of NATO’s challenge as it revamps its posture to take the threat of a Russian attack more seriously following the 2022 invasion of Ukraine, a security source said Germany alone would have to quadruple its air defence capacities.

At a summit in Vilnius last year, NATO leaders agreed on the alliance’s first major defence plans in more than three decades, and officials have been working on translating the documents into concrete military demands since then.

NATO leaders are expected to get an update on the plans in Washington this week, at a summit to mark the 75th anniversary of the transatlantic security alliance.

Asked for comment, a NATO official said the alliance’s military planners had identified “detailed requirements for troops and weapons needed to defend the alliance”.

“Air and missile defences, long-range weapons, logistics as well as large land manoeuvre formations are among our top priorities,” the official added..

“NATO will likely set more demanding capability targets for allies, as we develop forces that can implement our plans and meet the threats we face. We are confident that our deterrence is and will remain strong.”........more.........

 our not so distant future can be extrapolated from german current events;

My grandparents and their families, faced with a choice between certain death if they stayed in Germany and possible life if they could get out, did the best they could to leave. I am one of the results of those efforts, but there were other effects. Some of my ancestors committed suicide when they realised what their beloved Germany had become; others never recovered from the feeling of non-belonging caused by the flight from their homeland.

Two Germanies lived on in my grandparents’ and great-grandparents’ memories. Alongside the horror, evil and chaos there was the land of Beethoven, Hesse and Mann; of science, wealth and entrepreneurialism, of exacting industrial design and of order and civilisation.

Both those Germanies are now dead: the evil, genocidal one and the glorious land of order, culture and beauty.

What is left is one of Europe’s ropiest nations, bowed by decades of poor political decisions, bad management and artistic and industrial decline. Fans in Frankfurt for the Euros have found a city of drug-addled zombies, broken fountains and unbridled crime.

From Volkswagen, which never recovered from the emissions scandal of 2015, to Deutsche Bahn, which has some of the worst punctuality records in Europe (only 52 per cent of trains run on time) and a rolling stock whose problems make Britain’s railways seem advanced, Germany’s traditional once-great industrial prowess has been replaced by shambolic third-ratism.

The problems go deeper. Last week, German midfielder Toni Kroos, who moved to Spain to play for Real Madrid ten years ago, said he felt his seven-year-old daughter was safer in Spain than in his homeland because of “uncontrolled” migration.

These were not the bombastic Right-wing comments assumed by critics – Kroos stressed that he was “1000 per cent” in favour of welcoming migrants and that “I find that sensational, that people come to us from the outside and then are happy.”........more........

 this could be a good choice among several possibilities;

If you thought it wouldn’t be possible for former President Donald Trump to pick a running mate that gun-ban groups would hate as much as Trump himself, well, think again.

On Monday, Trump named Republican U.S. Sen. J.D. Vance of Ohio as his running mate in his quest for a second term. And a look at Vance’s record on guns and gun control reveals that he is a very strong proponent of gun owners’ rights.

“Joe Biden and anti-democracy multinational companies are trying to find new ways to take guns away from law-abiding citizens,” Vance said when running for the Senate in 2021. “They’re making it harder to buy firearms and ammunition, and imposing new, unconstitutional regulations on American citizens. I will fight the gun grabbers, whether they’re federal bureaucrats enacting regulations or multinational companies punishing people for exercising their rights.”

In a guest column for the Columbus Dispatch in July 2021, Vance wrote of growing up using firearms and of an “unholy alliance” coming for our guns.

“Worryingly, perhaps the biggest threat to the Second Amendment comes not from the Biden Administration, but from some of our biggest companies,” Vance wrote. “Unfortunately, the unholy alliance between government and business won’t stop at the Second Amendment. Eventually, they’ll come for other cherished American liberties, too.”

The next year, Vance questioned whether limiting access to guns would have any effect at all on gun violence, which he said was tied to “inner-city urban crime” and which he said until recently dropped generally over decades during a time when guns became more widely available.

“None of us like the school shootings,” he told Breitbart News. “None of us likes the fact that if you live near a big city, you hear about gun violence nearly every week. So, we have to not take the left’s bait and say, ‘Well, this is going to make us safer at the expense of our Second Amendment rights.’ I don’t think it’s going to do either.”............more........
