    U.S. — Secret Service has reported that former President Donald Trump sustained only minor injuries in an assassination attempt, leaving the number of dead Presidential candidates at one.

    “We can now confirm there is only one dead Presidential candidate,” announced Fox News anchor Laura Ingraham. “Praise the Lord that former President Trump is alright.”

    The nation breathed a sigh of relief upon learning that there was still one remaining Presidential candidate with a pulse. “I’m just so glad one of our leaders is still alive,” said local woman Allison Thompson. “It would be such a tragedy to have lost both Presidential candidates.”

    At publishing time, America had expressed its deep gratitude for its one leader that not only was alive, but was calm enough under literal gunfire to let the nation know he was okay.

  2. “There’s a report on yesterday’s Breitbart.com (and also the New York Post) that says over ten million gun owners and hunters are not registered to vote in America, according to the New York Post, and these are voters the Republicans need to make it across the finish line in November. That’s crazy. How do you expect to be able to keep your gun legally if you don’t vote? Don’t you know these are doing everything they can to grab your gun from you? Read this article, and you are one of the gun owners they’re talking about, get registered and protect what is right…”

    I didn’t see even one Oriole yesterday but have already seen a bunch of them this morning. But birds can feel changes in the atmospheric pressure – maybe the coming storm alerted them…..

  6. EXCERPT: “The Trump rally gunman was laid out on his belly, took aim and fired shots into the crowd before he got met with incoming bullets that killed him … and TMZ has it all on video.

    We’ve obtained an incredible clip that shows the moment the gunman opened fire at the Butler, PA rally Saturday — and you can see the guy looking through either a scope or iron sights on a roof … with people watching down below and freaking out, their panic palpable….”

    So sad.

    JUST IN: The man who was k*lled at Trump’s Pennsylvania rally has been identified as former fire chief for Buffalo Township, Corey Comperatore.

    Rest in peace.

    Comperatore’s last act on this planet was shielding his daughter from the bullets.

    “The PA Trump Rally claimed the life of my brother, Corey Comperatore. The hatred for one man took the life of the one man we loved the most.”

    “He was a hero that shielded his daughters. His wife and girls just lived through the unthinkable and unimaginable,” his sister said on FB.

    “My baby brother just turned 50 and had so much life left to experience. Hatred has no limits and love has no bounds. Pray for my sister-in-law, nieces, my mother, sister, me and his nieces and nephews as this feels like a terrible nightmare but we know it is our painful reality.”

  13. federal appeals court rules law does not require a state to allow transgenders to “amend” their birth certificate.
    article
    A federal appeals court on Friday sided with Tennessee, finding that its law saying transgender-indentifying individuals cannot change their sex on their birth certificates does not run afoul of the Constitution.

    In a 2-1 decision, the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that Tennessee statute saying that birth certificates need to line up with sex does not violate the 14th Amendment. The state was sued by four men who identify as women who wanted to change the sex on their Tennessee birth certificates to female.

    “But absent an existing fundamental right, the Constitution does not require the States to embrace the plaintiffs’ view of what information a birth certificate must record,” wrote Judge Jeffrey Sutton. “That’s why Tennessee’s choice to record sex — not gender identity — does not withhold a constitutionally prescribed benefit. Its amendment policy treats both sexes equally, and as elaborated below there is no fundamental right to a birth certificate recording gender identity instead of biological sex.”

    Sutton wrote that the law does not amount to unequal protection under the law “even under the most soaring generality of those terms.”

    “No person, male or female, may amend a birth certificate simply because it conflicts with their gender identity,” he wrote. “Tennessee does not guarantee anyone a birth certificate matching gender identity, only a certificate that accurately records a historical fact: the sex of each newborn.”

  15. I’ve had it on pause so long that I can’t re-wind to find out who the guy is but a supposed inside guy said on Fox that “…we had guys inside the building but I don’t know why they didn’t have someone on the roof.”

  25. “Who Is The Dictator”

    by Op-Ed, GraniteGrok

    14 JULY 2024

    ENTIRE ARTICLE: “Barack Obama, having been ordered by George and Alex Soros, sent the memo to the leftist faithful through the mouth of David Axelrod (who looks like Hitler) to always call President Donald Trump a dictator. Any politically astute observer knows this is simply the most recent example of Demolitioncrat projection.

    The dictator surely is the Biden Administration and its war on conservatives.

    Having inflicted a mentally comprised POTUS upon the American electorate by stealing the 2020 election from United States citizens, the Demolitioncrats in the House of Representatives voted nearly unanimously this week against the “Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act” (SAVE ACT), a Bill that requires voters to provide documentary proof of citizenship when registering to vote. Query whether this vote is connected to the Demolitioncrats allowing 15 million illegal aliens to cross the Southern border.

    Additionally, endless Biden gaffes have exposed his mental incapacity over his entire presidency. The Demolitioncrats and Mainstream Media pretended otherwise and insisted we could not believe our lying eyes and ears. Then, two weeks ago, Biden’s debate performance exposed the most corrupt cover-up in American history. The prevaricating media and the Demolitioncrats expect us to believe this mental incapacity happened overnight.

    The real cabal of dictators – the Soroses, Obamas, and Clintons – have used Biden’s dementia to impose a Demolitioncrat Dictatorship upon the United States. The sham Engoron and Marchand trials of President Trump, the imprisonment of Peter Navarro and Steve Bannon, and the endless harassment and disbarment of Trump’s lawyers, including Rudi Guiliani and John Eastman (see the American Conservative Website) is a shortlist of Demolitioncrat atrocities.

    Thank God for Donald Trump because, as he says, “ They are after you; I am standing in their way.”

  26. “The Blood Of Trump Is On You, Joe”

    by Ray Cardello, 14 JULY 2024

    ENTIRE ARTICLE: “Joe Biden cranked up the rhetoric. He cannot touch Donald Trump on the policies or results. He has gone personal and is making Donald Trump out to be the greatest threat to Democracy in our history. You told your followers that Donald Trump was someone who needed to be stopped. Those people knew you were not going to be able to beat Trump at the ballot box, so they took it upon themselves to solve the problem.

    Biden took to the microphone about an hour after the shooting and condemned the actions of the shooter and the temperature of the political atmosphere in the country. He said this is an example of why the country must be united. These comments are 24 hours after he spent an hour villainizing the former President. He lies, exaggerates, and glorifies himself, making this election personal and not political.

    Joe Biden has been the most divisive President in our history, and now we know he has been at the center of the biggest conspiracy and scam we have ever witnessed. Biden has denied and hid his mental condition from the American public. The staff, administration, Congress, and the media were all complicit in this widespread conspiracy.

    It was reported tonight that the White House denied repeated requests for additional security for Trump, and we already know that Biden denied any security for Kennedy. How will Joe Biden and Karine Jean-Pierre spin the White House response to these verified accusations?

    The White House and DHS are responsible for candidate safety, but Donald Trump is also a former President and deserves whatever protection is needed. Joe Biden has been negligent in protecting his political opponents. Is that an intentional decision, or is this another incident of Biden not being able to fulfill the duties of the job?

    It took hours to identify the twenty-year-old shooter, Thomas Matthew Crooks, who was shot dead on the rooftop where he had taken his kill position to attempt to assassinate the former and future President of the United States. The motive is unknown, as is if anyone else was involved, but we know one thing: this attempt to take down Donald Trump is on Joseph Biden and every Democrat.

    I am angry and disgusted at this situation; not the shooting, which is sickening, but the people who have incited this inevitable event. These morons have been painting Trump as an existential threat to every American and the Democracy. They have been pointing to January 6th as the Trump/Republican attempt to destroy America.

    July 13 is now the Democrat January 6. Just this week, Biden said he put a target on his opponent. Is he going to take responsibility for the insanity we witnessed in real time last night? I will give the DNC credit for their quick action to suspend all campaign ads, but that is not done out of respect for Trump but out of preservation for the Biden campaign. They know how incendiary their message has been and do not want America to see their ads in this context.

    Republicans will bounce back, and just like Trump did last night, we will raise our fists and fight for Trump and America. The Democrats took their shot, and like everything they do, they failed. They have poked the bear and will now feel the Trump wave roll over them in November.”

  38. AP has supposedly stated that a local cop had climbed the ladder to the roof, saw the shooter, who turned to look at him and pointed his rifle at him. He climbed back down and contacted the SS, which was when the shooter fired at Trump and the SS focused on the shooter.

    1. I think it’s BS – as they just said on Fox, if that’s the case, why didn’t the officer engage him??? He had a weapon!!! The same thought had crossed my mind – in fact, I said out-loud: “Then why the hell didn’t you shoot the bastard???” This statement came from “anonymous officials!” Riiiiight…..sure thing, guys!!!

  39. Guy on Fox just made a good point: Haley is speaking on Tuesday night at the convention whereas the VP candidate is scheduled for Wednesday night, which leaves her out for that slot. It could always change, I suppose, but IDT any of us thought she would be his pick anyway.
