Blood on Their Hands

Shortly after President Trump’s conviction by a Manhattan jury on 34 bogus charges earlier this year, Rep.Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., maestro of the cooked-up partisan January 6 hearings, offered legislation to deprive him of Secret Service protection. Yesterday, after a gunman tried to assassinate Trump, Thompson’s case manager and field director, Jacqueline Marsaw, posted this on her Facebook page.

After a backlash, the post was taken down, but the Democrats’ sentiment remains.

For more than eight years, ever since he rode down the elevator at Trump Tower, Democrats & their lapdog media have vilified the 45th president with language guaranteed to provoke violence. They have called him fascist, racist, homophobic, anti-Semitic (that was back when they were still pro-Israel). They have likened him to Hitler, who killed six million Jews and millions more non-Jews — gypsies, Poles, the mentally challenged, homosexuals and lots of political enemies of the Third Reich.

Monday, in a phone call meeting with his dwindling band of donors, President Biden said this, “We’re done talking about the debate. It’s time to put Trump in a bullseye.” Tuesday his wife Jill Biden called Trump evil. That was an ad-lib. Part of the prepared remarks was this line: “Our democracy cannot withstand a Trump presidency.”

Saturday Donald J. Trump was shot at a rally in Butler, PA in front of a crowd of perhaps 40,000. Most of them heard shots ring out — pop, pop, pop, maybe seven or eight volleys — and many of them saw Trump drop to the ground, his ear covered in blood, his body shielded by Secret Service agencies. As they escorted him off the stage, Trump pumped his fist in the air and shouted, “Fight! Fight! Fight! Iconic.

If Trump had not turned before the gunfire to face a side video monitor, the shot might well have entered his brain instead of leaving a hole in his ear.

The media response?

CNN: “Secret Service rushes Trump off stage after he falls at rally.”

Washington Post front page: “Trump taken away after loud noises at rally.”

Lots of media outlets can’t bring themselves to say Trump was shot. They keep saying, as NPR does, “Trump says he was shot.”

They have been shameless, and Dems have been violent, for a very long time.

In 2017, a Bernie Sanders supporter opened fire in a field in Virginia where GOP congressmen were practicing for the bipartisan Congressional Baseball Game. House Whip Steve Scalise was nearly killed. Yesterday Scalise said, “For weeks, Democrat leaders have been fueling ludicrous hysteria that Donald Trump being re-elected would be the end of democracy in America. This incendiary rhetoric must stop.”

“Comedian” Kathy Griffin that same year posed while holding up a bloodied and detached head of Donald Trump. No one except Dems thought it funny. Celebrities have also been bashing Trump for a long time — remember Madonna on his inauguration day saying, “I thought about blowing up the White House.”

Their proxies in Congress — purchased for millions in donations — rallied to violence. There was Maxine Waters, who after the death of George Floyd called on protestors to stay in the streets and “get more confrontational” if police officer Derek Chauvin was not convicted. (He was.) Kamala Harris urged fans to raise funds for bail money for Antifa protestors as cities burned down during the “summer of love.” And after a Democrat tried to assassinate Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh, then Minority Senate Leader Chuck Schumer warned him and Justice Neil Gorsuch would “pay the price” for rolling back abortion rights. “I want to tell you, Gorsuch, I want to tell you, Kavanaugh, you have released the whirlwind and you will pay the price. You won't know what hit you if you go forward with these awful decisions.”

This time, there have to be repercussions — for speech that provokes violence, for a Secret Service that completely failed in its mission (again) and for a corrupt DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkis who rejected a recent request by the Secret Service for more resources to protect Trump. Majorkis, no doubt at the bidding of whoever is running the White House, has also rejected any Secret Service protection for Robert F. Kennedy Jr., whose father and uncle were both killed by assassins.

Especially galling was that many eyewitnesses at the rally saw a shooter posed on a cargo container outside the secure perimeter, about 200-250 yards from the podium. Trump supporters saw him, and told security officials, who did nothing.

Conservative commentator Don Bongino held an emergency podcast on Rumble Saturday night, questioning the Secret Service he once worked for. House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer plans hearings into Secret Service incompetence. Many are calling for Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle’s resignation.

But for me and others of faith, Trump’s survival was nothing short of a miracle. There is no other explanation for why Trump chose that moment to move his head toward the TV monitor, no other reason why a shooter who killed a Trump supporter at the rally and injured another critically, would have missed his primary target.

Biden’s lawfare against Trump made him a martyr to many, especially in the Black community. But Trump’s response to the assassination attempt — shouting Fight! Fight! Fight! as he fist-pumped in the air — reminded many of us why we need him.

This is not an election that just pits Republican against Democrat. This is an election in which Good is fighting Evil. What else but evil can you call Democrat policies that condone 1/ castration of children 2/ mass illegal migration 3/ shredding the Constitution 4/ targeting parents as domestic terrorists?

Amid a wave of Democrat media hysteria over the 2025 Project — a document produced by the Heritage Foundation — the RNC put out its own 20-point agenda for the 47th president. It sounds a lot like maybe DJT wrote it. I pray, and ask your prayers, that he lives to carry it out and restore our nation to greatness.
