00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.839
Hey everyone, and welcome back to
Exposed Scandalous Files of the Elite. I
2
00:00:04.879 --> 00:00:10.880
am your host, Jim Chapman,
and this is a special drop. I
3
00:00:10.919 --> 00:00:17.600
want you to note that tomorrow's schedule
drop will drop as usual at midnight tonight.
4
00:00:18.000 --> 00:00:21.320
So, as you may know by
this point, there is news out
5
00:00:21.359 --> 00:00:27.960
of Pennsylvania, Butler, Pennsylvania to
be specific, where former President Donald Trump
6
00:00:28.679 --> 00:00:34.079
has been the victim of an attempted
assassination. He was graised, but he
7
00:00:34.200 --> 00:00:39.759
is safe, he is well.
An audience member was killed in this shooting,
8
00:00:39.880 --> 00:00:46.280
and two others as of this recording, are in critical condition. I'm
9
00:00:46.280 --> 00:00:51.600
gonna warn you before I get into
this podcast today maybe a little rougher than
10
00:00:51.640 --> 00:00:54.320
what you're used to hearing from me. A lot of what I'm gonna say
11
00:00:54.320 --> 00:01:00.600
today is absolutely unscripted, absolutely off
the cufflutely from the heart. I'm going
12
00:01:00.679 --> 00:01:03.840
to stick to facts today. I'm
going to stick to what I know,
13
00:01:04.680 --> 00:01:12.319
but I will opine on a few
things that do not seem right to me.
14
00:01:12.840 --> 00:01:18.400
So, as I said, this
rally took place yesterday in Butler,
15
00:01:18.760 --> 00:01:26.040
Pennsylvania. It was supposed to be
Trump's last campaign stop before the Republican National
16
00:01:26.120 --> 00:01:32.519
convention. It was a packed,
crowded, tens of thousands of people.
17
00:01:32.560 --> 00:01:36.799
And this was a swing state,
right, Pennsylvania always plays a part in
18
00:01:36.879 --> 00:01:42.879
the presidential election, and he was
set to deliver an unbelievable speech. He
19
00:01:44.000 --> 00:01:49.079
was then going to take a trip
to Milwaukee to officially receive that GOP nomination
20
00:01:49.799 --> 00:01:55.280
from the Republican Party. Okay,
so I'm going to take you to one
21
00:01:55.400 --> 00:01:59.439
PM and doors to that rally side
open. I want to tell you a
22
00:01:59.439 --> 00:02:02.000
little bit about out that rally site. It was rural, it was actually
23
00:02:02.079 --> 00:02:10.400
a fairgrounds. It is actually a
fairgrounds in Butler, Pennsylvania. It's surrounded
24
00:02:13.280 --> 00:02:20.680
by buildings, industrial buildings, most
of them with metal roofs, things like
25
00:02:20.719 --> 00:02:23.159
that. That's going to play a
key role into what I'm about to tell
26
00:02:23.199 --> 00:02:28.840
you today. In those fairgrounds in
Butler, Pennsylvania, they served as a
27
00:02:28.879 --> 00:02:34.159
community gathering place for many, many
years since the nineteen forties, mostly four
28
00:02:34.319 --> 00:02:38.039
farm shows and things like that.
And when they would have like you know,
29
00:02:38.159 --> 00:02:45.039
state fair type events, they served
as a fairground. Trump was actually
30
00:02:45.080 --> 00:02:50.319
scheduled to speak at five PM,
but he was late. He did not
31
00:02:50.560 --> 00:02:54.000
actually hit the stage until six pm. No word as to why, but
32
00:02:54.120 --> 00:03:00.960
hey, tens of thousands of Trump
supporters that in mind degree heat, no
33
00:03:00.080 --> 00:03:05.719
problem. They were there to hear
Trump speak. And when he got up
34
00:03:05.759 --> 00:03:09.000
there, he got up there.
At six oh three pm, Trump arrives
35
00:03:09.080 --> 00:03:15.360
and takes the stage to God Bless
the US eighth, the song by Lee
36
00:03:15.479 --> 00:03:20.479
Greenwood. This is typical for his
rallies. He spends a couple of minutes
37
00:03:20.759 --> 00:03:24.719
amping up the crowd as only Donald
Trump can do, shaking hands, that
38
00:03:24.840 --> 00:03:29.639
kind of thing. He has on
a white shirt, a navy blue suit
39
00:03:29.759 --> 00:03:36.960
jacket, no tie, and his
famous Maga hat. Load to his brow
40
00:03:37.120 --> 00:03:42.400
because the sun was shining. It
was hot ninety plus degrees out there.
41
00:03:43.360 --> 00:03:47.840
At six oh five pm he started
his speech and at six' ten pm
42
00:03:49.199 --> 00:03:55.680
he pivots to his right and he
starts describing a chart showing immigration statistics on
43
00:03:55.759 --> 00:04:00.680
a big screen. At six point
twelve pm, I'm gonna play you a
44
00:04:00.759 --> 00:04:05.439
clip right now. This is what
was heard and this was the scene as
45
00:04:05.560 --> 00:04:09.960
it took place. Something that said, take a look at what happened over
46
00:04:33.600 --> 00:04:38.519
observed. Spare was there? Hold
on when you're ready? On you ready?
47
00:04:42.439 --> 00:04:56.199
How already are we ready? It
was sho good down, shoot us
48
00:04:56.240 --> 00:05:09.519
down. I'm a good movie.
Let me rick there, come, well,
49
00:05:09.600 --> 00:05:11.759
let me get my shoe. Can
let me get my shoes? Got
50
00:05:11.839 --> 00:05:13.759
I'm sorry, I got something.
Let me get my shoes. Soap,
51
00:05:13.839 --> 00:05:15.600
hold on your head, bloody,
so we gotta go to the clus.
52
00:05:17.319 --> 00:05:46.199
Let me get I'll tell me.
Wait. So by now you've seen that
53
00:05:46.360 --> 00:05:49.879
clip. I know you just heard
that clip as well. Sometimes when you're
54
00:05:50.160 --> 00:05:55.319
listening and there's not a visual in
front of you, you'll pick up on
55
00:05:55.839 --> 00:06:00.639
sounds and things like that that you
may not have picked up on when you've
56
00:06:00.680 --> 00:06:03.839
seen the video. And just to
talk to you a little bit about what
57
00:06:04.000 --> 00:06:11.639
I saw and what I felt.
It was an absolute showing of resilience and
58
00:06:11.959 --> 00:06:18.120
strength by Donald Trump during that time, and this was under the absolute worst
59
00:06:18.800 --> 00:06:25.120
of circumstances. He managed to stop
the Secret Service as they were escorting him
60
00:06:25.160 --> 00:06:28.839
out of a dangerous scene, saying
to them, wear my shoes and then
61
00:06:28.959 --> 00:06:35.519
saying wait, wait, putting his
right fist in the air with blood covering
62
00:06:35.600 --> 00:06:41.959
his face because it was very clear
he had been hit, and mouthed the
63
00:06:42.199 --> 00:06:54.759
words fight, fight repeatedly in the
crowd breaking out in chance of USA USA.
64
00:06:54.959 --> 00:07:00.240
The American flag being waved in the
air above him as that picture that
65
00:07:00.319 --> 00:07:06.160
has become so famous now of Trump
with blood just streaming down the side of
66
00:07:06.199 --> 00:07:13.600
his cheek, his fist in the
air, and a beautiful blue sky in
67
00:07:13.720 --> 00:07:20.480
that American flag in the background.
If that doesn't give you chills, I
68
00:07:20.560 --> 00:07:26.720
don't know what would. And look, I don't care about your politics,
69
00:07:28.480 --> 00:07:33.879
whether you're Democrat, Republican, independent, I don't give a fuck whatever your
70
00:07:33.920 --> 00:07:40.240
opinion is on all of that.
If that don't give you chills, you
71
00:07:40.439 --> 00:07:49.079
ain't breathing. I am infuriated right
now. I'm angry over what has been
72
00:07:49.480 --> 00:07:56.959
done to this man. Yeah,
he's got character flaws. All of us
73
00:07:57.079 --> 00:08:01.079
do somewhere. What he did after
that bullet hit him. He don't know
74
00:08:01.160 --> 00:08:07.319
how many assassins are in that crowd. He gets up and he says,
75
00:08:07.480 --> 00:08:11.519
I want to talk to my people, and he looks at that audience and
76
00:08:11.639 --> 00:08:18.800
he says, fight, fight,
man. That's tough. And I don't
77
00:08:18.920 --> 00:08:26.279
like to get ultra Democrat Republican on
this podcast. I really don't. If
78
00:08:26.279 --> 00:08:31.319
you're a Democrat and you want to
vote Democrat, vote Democrat. If you're
79
00:08:31.319 --> 00:08:35.799
a Republican you want to vote Republican, vote Republican. But regardless of what
80
00:08:35.200 --> 00:08:45.600
party you're in. This can't stand. This is not who we are,
81
00:08:46.799 --> 00:08:54.759
is it? So he gets escorted
out by Secret Service after that, And
82
00:08:54.879 --> 00:08:58.000
I don't know about y'all, but
the first thing on my mind was,
83
00:09:00.399 --> 00:09:03.759
how in the hell did that just
happen. Look, it's been said a
84
00:09:03.840 --> 00:09:09.639
lot they're gonna kill him, They're
gonna kill him, but nobody really thought
85
00:09:09.679 --> 00:09:16.759
it was gonna happen, did you. Tucker Carlson on his podcast just oh
86
00:09:16.840 --> 00:09:22.759
it might have been a week ago, said that's the next option. They're
87
00:09:22.840 --> 00:09:26.240
running out of things to do.
Now. I want to address something real
88
00:09:26.360 --> 00:09:30.840
quick. You know how social media
is, and people on the Democratic side
89
00:09:30.879 --> 00:09:37.039
of things are panicking right now,
big time. They're panicking because this type
90
00:09:37.080 --> 00:09:41.720
of thing. Unless you are a
staunch I'm so left I'm gonna fall off
91
00:09:41.799 --> 00:09:46.960
a cliff lefty. You're gonna vote
for Trump in this election. This pisses
92
00:09:48.039 --> 00:09:52.000
you off. Even if you're a
Democrat. This should piss you off right
93
00:09:52.080 --> 00:09:56.679
now. Number one, because it's
not who we are. But number two
94
00:09:56.960 --> 00:10:07.679
because likely Trump is going to win
by Reagan Mondell numbers. He may get
95
00:10:07.919 --> 00:10:13.679
forty eight out of fifty states.
Now, so personally, I don't think
96
00:10:13.799 --> 00:10:18.960
this was a big Democratic plan.
Why do I say that, Well,
97
00:10:20.240 --> 00:10:24.360
this is about the worst thing you
could have happen if you're a Democrat,
98
00:10:24.639 --> 00:10:30.600
because not only did you fire up
Donald Trump's base, you fired up independence,
99
00:10:31.480 --> 00:10:37.039
you fired up moderates, You fired
up people that weren't going to vote
100
00:10:37.080 --> 00:10:41.039
because they weren't going to vote Democrat, but they weren't going to vote Republican
101
00:10:41.080 --> 00:10:46.799
because maybe they were more on the
DeSantis side of the Republicans. But you
102
00:10:46.960 --> 00:10:52.279
just tried to assassinate not only the
leading candidate for the Republican Party and within
103
00:10:52.360 --> 00:10:58.200
the next few days will be the
nomination for the Republican Party, but you
104
00:10:58.320 --> 00:11:05.159
also tried to assassinate a former president
of the United States. Y'all. That's
105
00:11:05.240 --> 00:11:11.279
serious. That's very serious. What
if that bullet would have hit one more
106
00:11:11.519 --> 00:11:16.440
millimeter over get it blown his head
completely off. I'm gonna tell you what
107
00:11:16.519 --> 00:11:22.159
would have happened. That was an
AR fifteen rifle in this country would have
108
00:11:22.519 --> 00:11:26.960
never been the same and it would
be a civil war likely. This is
109
00:11:26.039 --> 00:11:31.600
my opinion. It's a lot people
I don't think are grasping how serious this
110
00:11:31.879 --> 00:11:35.519
really was. I want to address
some of the things that I'm seeing on
111
00:11:35.679 --> 00:11:41.480
social media from people trying to spin
this situation a little bit. I've seen
112
00:11:43.320 --> 00:11:48.159
comments such as it was an inside
job. If you're one of those people
113
00:11:48.240 --> 00:11:52.600
that think that, please do not
put that on social media because you absolutely
114
00:11:52.720 --> 00:12:01.720
look like a moron. The best
sniper on God's green Earth cannot put a
115
00:12:01.879 --> 00:12:11.919
bullet such as one that is fired
from an AR fifteen on someone's ear without
116
00:12:13.039 --> 00:12:16.799
killing him. There's no one that
is that good of a shot, No
117
00:12:16.960 --> 00:12:22.960
one, period. It's impossible.
It was God's grace that Donald Trump is
118
00:12:24.120 --> 00:12:31.200
not dead right now, God's grace. It is absolutely horrific and tragic that
119
00:12:31.039 --> 00:12:35.159
a man was killed, a firefighter
that I'll tell you about in a little
120
00:12:35.200 --> 00:12:39.759
while, and two others injured critically. But make no mistake about it,
121
00:12:39.960 --> 00:12:46.320
this was not an inside job,
ridiculous, stupid period. I'll tell you
122
00:12:46.399 --> 00:12:48.720
what I think it was in just
a little while. But let's talk about
123
00:12:50.399 --> 00:12:52.879
how could this happen. So,
as you heard in the clip I just
124
00:12:54.000 --> 00:13:01.000
played you, the shooter was down
and they lifted trunk up, escorted him
125
00:13:01.240 --> 00:13:05.720
off of that stage. How did
he get up there? That was a
126
00:13:05.799 --> 00:13:09.240
total failure in my opinion of the
Secret Service. And let's talk about this
127
00:13:09.320 --> 00:13:16.320
for a second. So the Secret
Service did a phenomenal job of protecting the
128
00:13:16.440 --> 00:13:20.720
president. Within one point six seconds, they were on top of him.
129
00:13:20.720 --> 00:13:24.000
And look, shout out to the
female in there that has actually worked that
130
00:13:24.120 --> 00:13:31.600
security detail for Trump for many years. Her and one other particular agent they
131
00:13:31.679 --> 00:13:35.840
have worked for Trump for many years, kind of like his right hand security.
132
00:13:37.360 --> 00:13:39.000
And she was up in there and
she was going to make sure nothing
133
00:13:39.039 --> 00:13:43.480
happened to her President right. Shout
out to her. And there were several
134
00:13:43.519 --> 00:13:50.679
other female agents surrounding the car when
Trump was put into the car. Shout
135
00:13:50.759 --> 00:13:54.240
out to those as well. Love
to see some badass females in there making
136
00:13:54.279 --> 00:13:58.799
it happen. That was awesome.
Now, the word on the street is
137
00:14:00.919 --> 00:14:05.720
this is not verified, and actually
the Secret Service denies it. But I
138
00:14:05.799 --> 00:14:09.720
think that might be where a little
conspiracy is coming into play here and a
139
00:14:09.799 --> 00:14:16.639
little bit of scandal because they're denying
this at the top level of the Secret
140
00:14:16.720 --> 00:14:22.519
Service. And I want to preface
this with no one involved in on the
141
00:14:22.639 --> 00:14:26.840
ground in this incident. Was someone
that I'm putting blame on in this.
142
00:14:28.519 --> 00:14:35.320
But the Secret Service has one job. You protect the president the former president,
143
00:14:35.720 --> 00:14:37.360
and we'll tell you what the difference
in that protection is in just a
144
00:14:37.480 --> 00:14:46.679
second, and even political candidates once
they are qualified by their party. And
145
00:14:46.799 --> 00:14:54.200
that's important in this scenario because Trump
had this protection from the Secret Service primarily
146
00:14:54.360 --> 00:15:00.360
because he is a past president,
not because he's running for president. You
147
00:15:00.440 --> 00:15:03.960
don't automatically get Secret Service protection if
you're running for a president. Just ask
148
00:15:05.399 --> 00:15:09.639
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. He
was denied secrets and is denied, still
149
00:15:09.679 --> 00:15:13.720
does not have Secret Service protection,
and he's running for president and he actually
150
00:15:13.840 --> 00:15:18.519
has double digits in the polls.
I think he's polling somewhere around twelve percent.
151
00:15:18.639 --> 00:15:22.600
That's pretty good for an independent no
protection. He was denied it.
152
00:15:22.679 --> 00:15:26.360
And this is a guy who had
an uncle get assassinated and his dad.
153
00:15:28.360 --> 00:15:33.080
He's a Kennedy no protection. Used
to be a Democrat, now he's running
154
00:15:33.200 --> 00:15:39.639
as a independent. How does secret
Service protection work when you're a past president
155
00:15:39.759 --> 00:15:43.039
And what is the difference between like
Joe Biden right now, who is a
156
00:15:43.159 --> 00:15:48.000
sitting president. Really not a whole
lot when it comes to the Secret Service.
157
00:15:48.120 --> 00:15:52.919
If you're a past president, you
have roughly the same detail size,
158
00:15:52.559 --> 00:15:58.120
so the same amount of people protecting
you as the president. It's the sitting
159
00:15:58.240 --> 00:16:03.320
president has some class saified things that
nobody really knows. But think of it
160
00:16:03.519 --> 00:16:07.799
like this, If a sitting president
is speaking somewhere, there's probably a plane
161
00:16:08.039 --> 00:16:12.799
way up in the sky that no
one can see that has all kinds of
162
00:16:14.000 --> 00:16:18.480
cool equipment on it that can determine
a lot of things going on on the
163
00:16:18.559 --> 00:16:25.000
ground where he's speaking, whereas a
former president may not have that or does
164
00:16:25.120 --> 00:16:30.000
not have that. But the protection
detail is very similar. It's similar in
165
00:16:30.200 --> 00:16:33.399
the amount of people, etc.
One of the things that has been coming
166
00:16:33.440 --> 00:16:37.799
out on the street is that this
particular Secret Service detail requested more agents for
167
00:16:38.039 --> 00:16:42.600
this event, and we're denied.
That gunman getting up on that roof and
168
00:16:42.759 --> 00:16:48.639
firing from one hundred and thirty yards
out with an AR fifteen, which is
169
00:16:48.679 --> 00:16:56.600
plenty of range for an AR fifteen
to be accurate a shocking. Here's what
170
00:16:56.840 --> 00:17:02.840
happens when these events take place.
Five to seven days out, the Secret
171
00:17:02.919 --> 00:17:07.480
Service goes out there, they do
an on site inspection, and it's recommended
172
00:17:07.839 --> 00:17:15.400
anything inside of a thousand feet that
is perched, so buildings, right roofs,
173
00:17:15.319 --> 00:17:21.599
those sorts of things, they are
going to put someone there. They're
174
00:17:21.640 --> 00:17:25.119
going to put someone on top of
that roof, and they call that making
175
00:17:25.319 --> 00:17:30.640
the area sterile. But if you
got thirty agents working this event, and
176
00:17:30.720 --> 00:17:33.119
that's just a number, I don't
know how many he had, But if
177
00:17:33.160 --> 00:17:37.599
you have thirty agents and you spread
them out everywhere you can spread them out,
178
00:17:37.839 --> 00:17:40.559
you may not have some areas covered. And it appears if that was
179
00:17:40.680 --> 00:17:44.640
the case here. But the Secret
Service is coming out at the top level
180
00:17:44.759 --> 00:17:48.559
the brass right, they're saying,
oh no, this is bullshit. I
181
00:17:48.599 --> 00:17:52.640
don't know if I buy that this
was a major security failure, major and
182
00:17:52.759 --> 00:17:56.160
a lot of this may not be
solved. I mean, it's been fifty
183
00:17:56.240 --> 00:18:02.480
sixty years since Kennedy was the same
fascinated and we still can't agree, many
184
00:18:02.599 --> 00:18:08.000
of us on whether there was someone
behind a grassy knoll and whether Oswald performed
185
00:18:08.079 --> 00:18:14.519
this alone or whether it was the
CIA or this will never be answered to
186
00:18:14.799 --> 00:18:19.279
everybody's satisfaction. So I'm ana play
this clip. And this next clip is
187
00:18:19.400 --> 00:18:26.200
a woman, a little fire plug
too, older older female that was on
188
00:18:26.400 --> 00:18:32.240
the front row of this rally,
and she's describing what she saw with Trump
189
00:18:33.000 --> 00:18:36.480
in the melee after. And here's
that. Okay, I was in the
190
00:18:36.480 --> 00:18:40.680
first row, writ in front of
prison Trump. I heard first boom boom,
191
00:18:40.799 --> 00:18:45.640
I heard four boom boom booms.
Immediately thought fireworks. Ibody still putting
192
00:18:45.640 --> 00:18:49.720
off fireworks. Then the Secret Service
jumped onto him, pushed him to the
193
00:18:49.759 --> 00:18:52.319
ground. What did he look like
when you saw him when he got up?
194
00:18:53.039 --> 00:18:56.039
So I'm just telling you now,
I pushed him to the ground.
195
00:18:56.079 --> 00:18:59.359
That's what we saw. And not
one of us in the front row either
196
00:18:59.440 --> 00:19:03.200
hid down or and we all stood
up strong to make sure. We wanted
197
00:19:03.200 --> 00:19:07.319
to protect him too. We wouldn't
move till Trump got up. What did
198
00:19:07.359 --> 00:19:11.480
you see from him? So then
the guys with the guns came the clear
199
00:19:11.559 --> 00:19:15.200
right clear lift. They said,
lift them, so they lifted him straight
200
00:19:15.319 --> 00:19:18.759
up. Trump said, I gotta
get my shoes on. But he wasn't.
201
00:19:18.839 --> 00:19:21.079
He was. He looked okay to
me. But I saw a little
202
00:19:21.079 --> 00:19:23.200
bit of blood right here on the
side of his face, the right cheek.
203
00:19:23.759 --> 00:19:26.720
It was like a tear drop almost. But then when he turned to
204
00:19:26.799 --> 00:19:32.839
the right, I could see the
blood from the top of the ear to
205
00:19:32.960 --> 00:19:37.319
the bottom. Was not cushing,
but it was it was all the way
206
00:19:37.359 --> 00:19:41.000
down. OK. Yeah, I'm
fine Now I thought something happened, But
207
00:19:41.240 --> 00:19:45.000
in my mind, I thought when
they pushed him, he hit himself on
208
00:19:45.400 --> 00:19:48.640
something, you know, almost like
a burn, right brush burn or whatever,
209
00:19:48.680 --> 00:19:52.079
you know something, and then he
put his hand up real big,
210
00:19:52.759 --> 00:19:56.480
like strong, and they walked him
down. Just a fire blood right there.
211
00:19:57.279 --> 00:20:03.920
And look, the amazing thing about
this that I saw was when all
212
00:20:03.039 --> 00:20:08.079
those shots were fired, bullets are
flying, right. Some accounts have seven,
213
00:20:08.240 --> 00:20:14.880
some accounts have eight. Bullets shot
from this ar fifteen. You didn't
214
00:20:14.880 --> 00:20:18.000
see anybody running. Heck, there
were people behind him. They were almost
215
00:20:18.039 --> 00:20:22.359
standing up like they wanted to protect
the president, just like that lady said.
216
00:20:22.559 --> 00:20:26.559
So, as I told you earlier, police did shoot, and it
217
00:20:26.720 --> 00:20:34.160
was actually one shot that was fired
from what is known as the counter sniper
218
00:20:34.240 --> 00:20:38.920
team, and they were perched on
a roof situated just kind of catty corner
219
00:20:40.000 --> 00:20:44.960
to Trump where he was speaking,
maybe ten feet behind him, on a
220
00:20:45.079 --> 00:20:48.880
roof of a building. One shot, one kill, and they killed the
221
00:20:48.000 --> 00:20:52.559
shooter. And let's talk about that
real quick. The Secret Service has two
222
00:20:52.640 --> 00:20:57.720
teams that are staged at these events
that until something like this happens, you
223
00:20:57.839 --> 00:21:00.960
really don't know they exist. One
of those is a counter sniper team.
224
00:21:02.039 --> 00:21:07.279
They're usually per or they are always
perched on a high point like a roof,
225
00:21:07.519 --> 00:21:11.079
and all they're doing is they're observing
the crowd. They're looking everywhere they
226
00:21:11.200 --> 00:21:15.920
can, and they're trying to find
a sniper somewhere through these very high powered
227
00:21:17.039 --> 00:21:21.559
scopes that they have, and they're
communicating with people on the ground. They
228
00:21:21.640 --> 00:21:26.000
also have a counter assault team.
Now, remember when Trump went down and
229
00:21:26.119 --> 00:21:33.279
the Secret Service agents surrounded him.
You had I think it was three guys
230
00:21:33.680 --> 00:21:41.839
come out and they all had automatic
rifles, and they essentially surrounded the Secret
231
00:21:41.039 --> 00:21:48.799
Service gentlemen and women in suits.
That is the counter assault team. They
232
00:21:48.880 --> 00:21:53.359
are trained to protect not only the
president, but the Secret Service that is
233
00:21:53.599 --> 00:22:00.559
protecting the president. So they surround
those who had Trump tackled. And we'll
234
00:22:00.599 --> 00:22:03.039
go back real quick to how did
he get on that roof, which is
235
00:22:03.160 --> 00:22:07.440
what I've been talking about, And
how did nobody see him? This is
236
00:22:07.599 --> 00:22:12.119
now common news that it was a
twenty year old white male that was the
237
00:22:12.200 --> 00:22:18.559
shooter. This kid is climbing a
industrial building and getting on the roof with
238
00:22:18.799 --> 00:22:23.359
an AR fifteen in broad daylight.
Did anybody see him? Yes? Did
239
00:22:23.440 --> 00:22:27.759
anybody bring attention to the police that, Hey, there's a freaking guy on
240
00:22:27.839 --> 00:22:33.480
the roof. Yes. And we
got that clip from the individual that reported
241
00:22:33.519 --> 00:22:36.920
this to police, and that's right
here. We would say you went inside
242
00:22:37.000 --> 00:22:38.720
the event, yep, but you
were just outside. Tell us what yes
243
00:22:38.799 --> 00:22:44.200
or online. So we had a
party here all day and you can see
244
00:22:44.240 --> 00:22:48.000
behind us at the Brinkle's Farming greenhouse
here. We had a party and we
245
00:22:48.079 --> 00:22:52.000
all decided, hey, you know, when we hear Trump up there,
246
00:22:52.000 --> 00:22:55.960
we're going to walk up through the
field, stand by the trees out there
247
00:22:56.039 --> 00:22:57.839
under the shade and watch this ring
and listen to the rally. Right.
248
00:22:57.880 --> 00:23:03.240
We couldn't see him, but we
could hear him. So we walked up
249
00:23:03.640 --> 00:23:07.880
and probably five to seven minutes of
Trump speaking I'm estimating here. I have
250
00:23:08.000 --> 00:23:15.759
no idea, you know, but
we noticed a guy crawling arming, you
251
00:23:15.799 --> 00:23:21.559
know, bear crawling up the roof
of the building beside us, fifty feet
252
00:23:21.599 --> 00:23:23.720
away from us. So we're standing
there, you know, we're pointing.
253
00:23:25.000 --> 00:23:27.880
We're pointing at the guy crawling up
the roof. And he had a rifle.
254
00:23:29.160 --> 00:23:33.440
He could clearly see him with a
rifle. Absolutely, we're pointing at
255
00:23:33.519 --> 00:23:37.119
him. The police are down there
running around on the ground. We're like,
256
00:23:37.240 --> 00:23:40.119
hey, man, there's guy in
the roof. For the rifle,
257
00:23:40.599 --> 00:23:41.799
and the police were like, come
on, what you know, like like
258
00:23:41.880 --> 00:23:45.200
they didn't know what was going on. You know, We're like, hey,
259
00:23:45.319 --> 00:23:47.200
right here on the roof, we
can see him from right here,
260
00:23:47.440 --> 00:23:52.319
we see him, you know,
he's crawling. And next thing you know,
261
00:23:52.519 --> 00:23:53.400
I'm like, I'm thinking to myself, I'm like, why is Trump
262
00:23:53.480 --> 00:23:56.880
still speaking? Why have they not
pulled him off the stage. I'm standing
263
00:23:56.920 --> 00:24:02.440
there pointing at him for you know, two to three minutes, Secret Services
264
00:24:02.480 --> 00:24:04.519
looking at us from the top of
the barn. I'm pointing at that roof,
265
00:24:06.119 --> 00:24:10.079
just standing there like this, and
next thing, you know, five
266
00:24:10.119 --> 00:24:15.160
shots run out. So there you
have it. I have no answer for
267
00:24:15.240 --> 00:24:19.039
that, y'all. And that is
concerning. I mean, it sounded to
268
00:24:19.119 --> 00:24:22.799
me like this man said, they
just kind of laughed him off. He's
269
00:24:22.880 --> 00:24:30.160
pointing at this kid bear crawling on
a roof one hundred and thirty feet from
270
00:24:30.200 --> 00:24:37.960
the president. Nothing happens. We
were probably a millimeter away, in a
271
00:24:38.039 --> 00:24:47.160
head turn away from civil war.
And whoever he reported this to didn't do
272
00:24:47.279 --> 00:24:52.880
a damn thing. That's crazy to
me. As these reports were coming out,
273
00:24:52.279 --> 00:25:02.000
some of them were disgusting in my
opinion, seeing in really stuck in
274
00:25:02.119 --> 00:25:06.960
my crawl for forty five minutes while
they were on the air, and it
275
00:25:07.160 --> 00:25:12.200
was look it was completely clear that
there were gunshots fired. The headline that
276
00:25:12.440 --> 00:25:22.319
SEEINGN had on their website was secret
service Russius Trump off stage after he falls
277
00:25:22.880 --> 00:25:27.480
at rally. After he falls,
they knew he was shot. Wolf Blitzer,
278
00:25:29.079 --> 00:25:33.920
one of their anchors, Once they
finally admitted that this man didn't fall,
279
00:25:34.079 --> 00:25:37.200
he was shot, and they knew
that from a beginning. But once
280
00:25:37.640 --> 00:25:44.960
they finally admitted this, wolf Blitzer
comes out and he's very just lasadaisical about
281
00:25:44.960 --> 00:25:48.359
it. You know, sometimes this
happens, and it's always sad when this
282
00:25:48.599 --> 00:25:53.960
happens. No, you don't say
fell off the stage. You don't say
283
00:25:55.039 --> 00:26:00.359
it's it's sad. But sometimes it
happens. When does it happen? When
284
00:26:00.720 --> 00:26:08.680
when Kennedy was assassinated, when Lincoln
was assassinated, Ronald Reagan when he was
285
00:26:08.759 --> 00:26:14.440
shot. That was in nineteen eighty
one, That was decades ago. This
286
00:26:14.599 --> 00:26:19.240
doesn't just happen. Sometimes that shit
pissed me off. If you're gonna report
287
00:26:19.279 --> 00:26:25.839
it, report it accurately, Tell
the people the truth. All of us
288
00:26:25.880 --> 00:26:30.880
are human, Come on seeing and
do better. He could have been killed
289
00:26:33.359 --> 00:26:40.359
literally within millimeters when he's talking.
If he were facing twelve o'clock, facing
290
00:26:40.519 --> 00:26:44.680
right at the audience at the time
that that shot went off, he would
291
00:26:44.759 --> 00:26:49.880
be dead. In this country would
never be the same never. This is
292
00:26:51.079 --> 00:26:56.160
serious. And I'll tell you what, I know some people that we're not
293
00:26:56.319 --> 00:27:02.400
gonna vote now, they'll crawl through
glass to vote for Trump. This is
294
00:27:02.519 --> 00:27:07.119
a big deal. So the shooter
is killed, and I'm thinking, how
295
00:27:07.160 --> 00:27:14.079
did we get to this point today? What happened recently that may have incited
296
00:27:14.640 --> 00:27:18.200
somebody to do this? Personally,
from what's come out, I think this
297
00:27:18.440 --> 00:27:22.480
was a lone wolf thing. I
just don't see this twenty year old that
298
00:27:22.559 --> 00:27:27.680
I've researched as much as I possibly
could at this point of being someone anybody
299
00:27:27.720 --> 00:27:33.200
would pick to do this, even
as a patsy. But what raised emotions
300
00:27:33.480 --> 00:27:38.440
this week, Well, one of
the things that happened is Biden came out
301
00:27:38.680 --> 00:27:45.359
and in this speech he said,
and he was referring to Eugenie Carroll and
302
00:27:45.440 --> 00:27:52.400
he said that judge said he raped
that woman. And you know, you
303
00:27:52.480 --> 00:27:56.880
can go back and you can read
the opinion on that case. She was
304
00:27:56.119 --> 00:28:03.279
a partisan judge, and after the
or he did not convict Trump of rape,
305
00:28:03.440 --> 00:28:07.000
and they did not find that he
raped her. The judge, providing
306
00:28:07.039 --> 00:28:14.319
an assist really for the prosecutor who
failed to prove rape, said they must
307
00:28:14.400 --> 00:28:19.359
have been talking about rape in an
extraordinary, absolutely extraordinary written opinion that she
308
00:28:19.519 --> 00:28:26.200
wrote that was completely inappropriate. And
Joe Biden he seized on that because he's
309
00:28:26.359 --> 00:28:33.279
desperate. Quite frankly, he's desperate
because of his own debate performance that absolutely
310
00:28:33.440 --> 00:28:37.799
lost him this election even before the
shooting. In my opinion, and the
311
00:28:38.000 --> 00:28:42.480
rhetoric is all he had. He
said, and I quote, he's a
312
00:28:42.640 --> 00:28:48.480
rapist. Put a bullseye on him. He's dangerous in word, deed,
313
00:28:48.640 --> 00:28:52.480
n action. He puts self over
country, he lows the law we live
314
00:28:52.640 --> 00:29:02.240
by. How dare him? How
dare they? He's dangerous? Yeah,
315
00:29:02.240 --> 00:29:06.759
he's dangerous. You're dangerous. Do
you know the reach you have? Joe
316
00:29:06.799 --> 00:29:11.119
Biden? You have to be responsible
in your words, because part of me
317
00:29:11.240 --> 00:29:18.519
thinks this is just some idiot,
fucking impressionable kid who is a total dumb
318
00:29:18.640 --> 00:29:23.400
ass that bought everything. Biden said, hookline and sinker and said I'll go
319
00:29:23.599 --> 00:29:29.880
be the hero. Yeah, there's
stupid ass twenty year olds out there that
320
00:29:29.960 --> 00:29:33.240
would do that, and when I
get to identifying this fool, I'm gonna
321
00:29:33.240 --> 00:29:40.039
say his name one time, because
he will not become words that come out
322
00:29:40.079 --> 00:29:44.200
of my mouth more than once on
this show, and the only I have
323
00:29:44.359 --> 00:29:48.039
to say it once so I can
identify this asshole. But from then on
324
00:29:48.319 --> 00:29:52.839
he will be referred to as asshole
and they act on their own and their
325
00:29:52.920 --> 00:30:00.240
lone wolfs, and everything I'm seeing
so far indicates that to me. You
326
00:30:00.319 --> 00:30:03.319
know, do I think Hillary Clinton
went talking to this kid or somebody from
327
00:30:03.599 --> 00:30:07.599
the Democratic side talk to this kid, put him up to it? No,
328
00:30:07.880 --> 00:30:12.519
not this kid, number one,
anybody they would have to do this.
329
00:30:12.839 --> 00:30:18.799
That person's not missing, that's number
one. I guarantee you. They'd
330
00:30:18.839 --> 00:30:22.240
be trained to shoot, and it's
hard to miss. It's hard to miss
331
00:30:22.359 --> 00:30:26.160
with an A or fifteen from one
hundred and thirty yards. That's a big
332
00:30:26.359 --> 00:30:29.480
bullet. So I guess let's talk
about this shooter, who he was,
333
00:30:30.000 --> 00:30:33.440
what we know about him so far, and we'll say his name one time.
334
00:30:34.920 --> 00:30:41.599
His name was Thomas Matthew Crooks.
He was a twenty year old kitchen
335
00:30:41.680 --> 00:30:45.319
worker and as I told you,
he was shot dead on the scene by
336
00:30:45.440 --> 00:30:52.200
a Secret Service sniper. He had
not been carrying IDs. So the way
337
00:30:52.359 --> 00:30:59.599
that investigators were able to identify this
asshole was to use DNA, and they
338
00:30:59.640 --> 00:31:07.200
were able to identify him from DNA
and some other techniques which I'm not one
339
00:31:07.279 --> 00:31:11.599
hundred percent familiar with exactly at this
point, because if you don't have a
340
00:31:11.119 --> 00:31:17.240
if someone's never turned in their DNA
to you, okay, they're not in
341
00:31:17.319 --> 00:31:22.160
the database. Even if you have
their DNA, you can't match it unless
342
00:31:22.200 --> 00:31:27.440
they already have DNA record. So
for some reason this kid did. He
343
00:31:27.680 --> 00:31:33.680
was from Bethel Park, Pennsylvania.
That's about forty three miles from where the
344
00:31:33.839 --> 00:31:40.000
assassination attempt took place. He graduated
in twenty twenty two from Bethel Park High
345
00:31:40.039 --> 00:31:45.240
School. This was a freaking kid. He worked in a local nursing home
346
00:31:45.400 --> 00:31:51.319
kitchen that was just a short drive
from his home, so he didn't even
347
00:31:51.440 --> 00:31:56.599
work in the area. And he
was a registered Republican according to state records.
348
00:31:56.880 --> 00:32:01.559
That is a lot of contention right
now. Democrats are jumping on that
349
00:32:02.119 --> 00:32:06.039
as one of your own look,
one of your own shot at you.
350
00:32:07.359 --> 00:32:13.160
Not so fast. First of all, was he donated money to a liberal
351
00:32:13.440 --> 00:32:20.119
campaign group now in his act blue
in twenty twenty one. So it's my
352
00:32:20.319 --> 00:32:24.359
suspicion he was a Rhino, a
Republican in name only. He was a
353
00:32:24.440 --> 00:32:30.720
fake Republican. He was wearing a
T shirt from Demolition Ranch, which is
354
00:32:30.799 --> 00:32:35.960
a large YouTube channel has millions of
subscribers, and they're known for guns and
355
00:32:36.079 --> 00:32:42.400
demolition content. The AR fifteen that
he used was registered to his father.
356
00:32:42.680 --> 00:32:45.279
Of course, that is neither here
nor there. That doesn't mean that his
357
00:32:45.440 --> 00:32:51.640
father was complicit or had any knowledge
of this. He could have just walked
358
00:32:51.680 --> 00:32:55.160
in his dad's gun closet and took
out his AR fifteen. The weapon was
359
00:32:55.279 --> 00:33:01.599
bought at least six months ago,
according to the Secret Service. They also
360
00:33:02.319 --> 00:33:10.759
found explosive device material in his vehicle
that was parked in a neighborhood outside of
361
00:33:10.880 --> 00:33:19.359
where Trump was speaking. Actually had
some very cognizant residents of that neighborhood.
362
00:33:20.000 --> 00:33:25.559
They knew that Van did not belong
there, and actually called police and come
363
00:33:25.640 --> 00:33:34.839
to find out they had IEDs improvised
explosive devices inside that vehicle. They also
364
00:33:35.000 --> 00:33:42.160
found material to make explosive devices in
his home in his bedroom. A lot
365
00:33:42.240 --> 00:33:45.359
of people have asked what his motive
was. We don't know. Nobody knows
366
00:33:45.440 --> 00:33:50.559
yet. This is going to take
time. It could take months for investigators
367
00:33:50.599 --> 00:33:53.680
to figure out. If they ever
figure out why he did this. Did
368
00:33:53.720 --> 00:33:58.799
he leave a manifesto somewhere that they
haven't come across. Time will tell.
369
00:33:59.079 --> 00:34:02.319
And as I told you, not
only did he shoot and injure Donald Trump,
370
00:34:02.680 --> 00:34:09.119
he killed another and two others in
the audience work injured. Their in
371
00:34:09.239 --> 00:34:14.960
critical condition. And all three of
those the one that was killed along with
372
00:34:15.039 --> 00:34:20.360
the two that are in critical cognition
or male. So after the gunman was
373
00:34:20.519 --> 00:34:24.559
killed, but several hours after the
incident, the White House finally had something
374
00:34:24.599 --> 00:34:29.960
to say on the matter, and
President Joe Biden came out and spoke to
375
00:34:30.079 --> 00:34:35.280
reporters at the White House. And
here's what that sounded like. Thanks for
376
00:34:35.360 --> 00:34:39.800
coming, folks. I've been thoroughly
briefed by all the agencies and federal government.
377
00:34:39.880 --> 00:34:45.360
That's the situation based on what we
know now. I have tried to
378
00:34:45.360 --> 00:34:50.960
get a hold of Donald. He's
with his doctors. They apparently he's doing
379
00:34:51.079 --> 00:34:54.880
well. I plan on talking then
shortly, I hope when I get back
380
00:34:54.960 --> 00:35:00.559
to the telephone. Look, there's
no place in America of this kind of
381
00:35:00.679 --> 00:35:04.400
violence. It's sick, it's sick. It's one of the reason why we
382
00:35:04.480 --> 00:35:07.239
have to unite this country. We
cannot allow for this to be happening.
383
00:35:07.320 --> 00:35:12.840
We cannot be like this. We
cannot condone this. And so, and
384
00:35:12.920 --> 00:35:15.840
I want to thank the Secret Service
and all the agency, including the state
385
00:35:15.880 --> 00:35:20.599
agencies that have been engaged in making
sure that the people who and we have
386
00:35:20.840 --> 00:35:23.719
more detail to come relative to other
injury. Other people may be injured in
387
00:35:23.800 --> 00:35:28.280
the audience. I don't have all
that detail, will make that available to
388
00:35:28.320 --> 00:35:30.639
you. I may be able to
come back a little later tonight, but
389
00:35:30.760 --> 00:35:34.519
we'll put out a statement if we
don't, if I'm not able to get
390
00:35:34.519 --> 00:35:37.000
it, if it's not convenient for
you, will But the bottom line is
391
00:35:37.920 --> 00:35:42.719
that the Trump rally is a rally
that you should have been able to be
392
00:35:42.840 --> 00:35:49.000
conducted peacefully without any problem. But
the idea, the idea that there's political
393
00:35:49.119 --> 00:35:52.239
violence or violence in America like this, it's just unheard of. It's just
394
00:35:52.440 --> 00:35:57.559
not appropriate, and everybody, everybody
must condemn it, everybody. I'll keep
395
00:35:57.599 --> 00:36:00.599
you informed and if I am able
to speak to the to Donald, I'll
396
00:36:00.880 --> 00:36:06.320
let you know that as well.
So far it appears he's doing well.
397
00:36:06.880 --> 00:36:12.320
Number one. Number two that they're
thoroughly investigating what happened to anyone else in
398
00:36:12.360 --> 00:36:15.440
the audience. I have, we
have some reports, but not final reports,
399
00:36:16.000 --> 00:36:21.079
and every agency in the federal government, and I'm going back to my
400
00:36:21.360 --> 00:36:24.840
phone to speak with the federal agencies
that are being put together again to give
401
00:36:24.880 --> 00:36:29.599
me an updated brief as anything happened. They learning more in the last couple
402
00:36:29.639 --> 00:36:31.760
of hours. So thank you very
much, and I hope I get to
403
00:36:31.800 --> 00:36:35.440
speak to him tonight and I'll get
you back to you if I do.
404
00:36:35.599 --> 00:36:39.880
Oksh present, Do you think this
was an assassination attempt? I don't know
405
00:36:40.119 --> 00:36:45.239
enough to I have an opinion,
but I don't have any facts, so
406
00:36:45.480 --> 00:36:47.519
I want to make sure we have
all the facts before I make some comment
407
00:36:47.519 --> 00:36:51.920
any more comments. Thank you.
So that's what he had to say the
408
00:36:52.039 --> 00:36:55.559
day of the shooting. And I'm
going to tell you now about the hero
409
00:36:57.159 --> 00:37:00.480
in my opinion, that was killed
in this incident, and he is a
410
00:37:00.960 --> 00:37:07.920
former Pennsylvania fire chief that was killed
at that rally. But before I discuss
411
00:37:08.039 --> 00:37:12.320
him, I want to play this
club. This was from a gentleman who's
412
00:37:12.320 --> 00:37:19.760
an er doctor that discussed assessting one
of these three men that were shot and
413
00:37:19.880 --> 00:37:25.400
it's right here. I heard the
shots. I thought it was star trackers
414
00:37:25.480 --> 00:37:29.960
to begin with. Somebody over there
was screaming, he's been shot. He's
415
00:37:29.960 --> 00:37:32.760
been shot. So I made my
way over. I said, I'm an
416
00:37:32.800 --> 00:37:37.239
emergency department physician. Let me help
you. The guy had spun around,
417
00:37:37.440 --> 00:37:42.239
was jammed between the benches. He
had a headshot here, there's lots of
418
00:37:42.320 --> 00:37:49.239
blood and he had brained met her. So I got him. There's a
419
00:37:49.280 --> 00:37:54.400
helicopter coming in to get him.
So I got people there, really helpful.
420
00:37:54.440 --> 00:38:00.360
I got and then at the CPR
did chest impressions as well as for
421
00:38:05.119 --> 00:38:10.440
so that er doctor did not mention
which of those three men he was actually
422
00:38:10.679 --> 00:38:15.760
working on and providing uh, chest
compressions for, et cetera. But the
423
00:38:15.880 --> 00:38:22.440
former Pennsylvania fire chief, Corey Comparatore, who was fifty was killed. He
424
00:38:22.599 --> 00:38:28.760
was described as a hero who had
so much life left to experience. That
425
00:38:28.880 --> 00:38:34.599
from his sister. Corey was a
former fire chief of the Buffalo Township Volunteer
426
00:38:34.840 --> 00:38:38.360
Fire Department. He was a hero
that shielded his daughters, his wife and
427
00:38:38.440 --> 00:38:45.079
the girls just lived through the unthinkable
and unimaginable. That from his sister Dawn,
428
00:38:45.440 --> 00:38:49.199
My baby brother just turned fifty and
had so much life left to experience.
429
00:38:49.440 --> 00:38:52.960
Hatred has no limits and love has
no bounds. Pray for my sister
430
00:38:53.039 --> 00:38:58.199
in law, nieces, my mother's
sister, me and his nieces and nephews,
431
00:38:58.280 --> 00:39:00.880
as this feels like a terrible nightmare, but we know it is our
432
00:39:00.960 --> 00:39:07.119
painful reality. His wife and daughter
described the scene at the rally, stating
433
00:39:07.199 --> 00:39:12.920
that Corey quickly moved to shield his
family when the shots began. He shielded
434
00:39:13.000 --> 00:39:15.559
my body from the bullet that came
at us. He loved his family,
435
00:39:15.679 --> 00:39:21.679
He truly loved us enough to take
a real bullet for us. That from
436
00:39:21.760 --> 00:39:25.639
Allison, his daughter, In a
Facebook post. His wife, Helen added
437
00:39:25.719 --> 00:39:31.119
on Facebook, what my precious girls
had to witness is unforgivable. According to
438
00:39:31.280 --> 00:39:37.760
his LinkedIn profile, he worked as
a project and tooling engineer at JSP a
439
00:39:37.880 --> 00:39:49.280
plastics manufacturing firm in Butler, Pennsylvania, which is the rooftop in which that
440
00:39:49.519 --> 00:39:54.719
shooter was perched when he was killed. Very strange. Some statements were also
441
00:39:54.880 --> 00:40:01.320
released from several different people families of
former presidents. Michael Reagan, the son
442
00:40:01.360 --> 00:40:07.800
of late President Ronald Reagan, said
the Reagan family sends prayers to President Trump
443
00:40:07.960 --> 00:40:13.239
and his family. Special prayers for
Milania as we remember what Nancy was going
444
00:40:13.360 --> 00:40:16.079
through in March of nineteen eighty one. Of course, that's when Reagan was
445
00:40:16.119 --> 00:40:21.320
shot. Andy Vanka Trump also came
out with a statement. She said,
446
00:40:21.400 --> 00:40:25.440
thank you for your love and prayers
for my father and for other victims of
447
00:40:25.599 --> 00:40:31.679
today's senseless violence in Butler, Pennsylvania. I am grateful to the Secret Service
448
00:40:31.760 --> 00:40:37.320
and all the other law enforcement officers
for their quick and decisive actions. I
449
00:40:37.440 --> 00:40:42.639
continue to pray for our country.
I love you Dad today in all ways
450
00:40:44.239 --> 00:40:47.400
only as a daughter can write it
right. Eli Musk came out within an
451
00:40:47.599 --> 00:40:53.079
hour of this incident. He said, I fully endorse President Trump and hope
452
00:40:53.159 --> 00:41:00.639
for his rapid recovery. Y'all.
That is huge. Elon Musk has said
453
00:41:00.719 --> 00:41:07.320
many times he will not endorse for
this election, and he came out and
454
00:41:07.519 --> 00:41:15.199
endorsed Trump right after this incident.
He retweeted right behind it, last time
455
00:41:15.360 --> 00:41:21.599
America had a candidate this tough,
it was Theodore Roosevelt. And let's get
456
00:41:21.639 --> 00:41:27.480
to Malania Trump, who wrote kind
of like an open letter to fellow Americans,
457
00:41:27.519 --> 00:41:31.880
and she says, I am thinking
of you now, my fellow Americans.
458
00:41:32.440 --> 00:41:37.880
We have been through a unique union
America. The fabric of our gentle
459
00:41:37.000 --> 00:41:42.760
nation is tattered, but our courage
and common sense must descend and bring us
460
00:41:42.880 --> 00:41:46.679
back together as one. While I
watched that violent bullet strike my husband,
461
00:41:46.760 --> 00:41:52.159
Donald, I realized my life in
Baron's life. We're on the brink of
462
00:41:52.239 --> 00:41:57.920
a devastating change. I am grateful
to the brave secret security agents and law
463
00:41:58.000 --> 00:42:01.119
enforcement officials who risk their own life
to protect my husband, and to the
464
00:42:01.199 --> 00:42:06.079
families of the innocent victims who are
now suffering from this heinous act. I
465
00:42:06.239 --> 00:42:10.320
humbly offer my sincerest sympathy. Your
need to summon your inner strength for such
466
00:42:10.360 --> 00:42:16.320
a terrible reason saddens me. A
monster who recognized my husband as an inhuman
467
00:42:16.559 --> 00:42:22.519
political machine attempted to ring out Donald's
passion, his laughter, ingenuity, love
468
00:42:22.559 --> 00:42:29.079
of music, and inspiration. The
core facets of my husband's life, his
469
00:42:29.280 --> 00:42:36.280
human side, were buried below the
political machine. Donald, the generous and
470
00:42:36.440 --> 00:42:39.800
caring man who I have been with
through the best of times and the worst
471
00:42:39.880 --> 00:42:45.920
of times. Let us not forget
that differing opinions policy political games are inferior
472
00:42:46.639 --> 00:42:53.000
to love, are personal, structural
and life commitment until death is at serious
473
00:42:53.199 --> 00:43:00.079
risk. Political concepts are simple when
compared to us human beings. We are
474
00:43:00.119 --> 00:43:07.400
all human and fundamentally, instinctively we
want to help each other. American politics
475
00:43:07.480 --> 00:43:12.639
are only one vehicle that can uplift
our communities. Love, compassion, kindness,
476
00:43:12.679 --> 00:43:16.519
and empathy are necessities. And let
us remember that when the time comes
477
00:43:16.599 --> 00:43:21.480
to look beyond the left and the
right, beyond the red and the blue,
478
00:43:21.639 --> 00:43:24.519
we all come from families with the
passion to fight for a better life
479
00:43:24.559 --> 00:43:30.519
together. While we are here in
this earthly realm, dawn is here again.
480
00:43:30.719 --> 00:43:37.519
Let us unite now this morning,
ascend above the hate, the vitriol,
481
00:43:37.119 --> 00:43:42.039
and the simple minded ideas that ignite
violence. We all want a world
482
00:43:42.119 --> 00:43:46.000
where respect is paramount, family is
first, and love transcends. We can
483
00:43:46.119 --> 00:43:51.760
realize this world again. Each of
us must demand it. To get it
484
00:43:51.880 --> 00:43:57.400
back, we must insist that respect
fills the cornerstone of our relationships. Again.
485
00:43:57.800 --> 00:44:01.559
I'm thinking of you, my fellows. The wind of change has arrived.
486
00:44:01.679 --> 00:44:06.239
For those of you who cry and
support I thank you. I commend
487
00:44:06.320 --> 00:44:10.599
those of you of reached out beyond
the political divide. Thank you for remembering
488
00:44:10.760 --> 00:44:16.719
that every single politician is a man
or a woman with a loving family and
489
00:44:16.880 --> 00:44:22.639
folks. You can't say it any
better than that, these are human beings,
490
00:44:23.360 --> 00:44:30.280
These are people. I think sometimes
politics get so divided you forget that
491
00:44:30.519 --> 00:44:35.400
all of us are human and as
Kennedy said, we all breathe the same
492
00:44:35.480 --> 00:44:39.920
air and we're all mortal. So
to sum this up today, at this
493
00:44:40.199 --> 00:44:49.679
point, I do see a major
security failure that falls at the hands of
494
00:44:49.840 --> 00:44:54.519
the Secret Service brass, the executives
at the top, not the ones that
495
00:44:54.599 --> 00:45:01.000
were there. Those are heroes.
Those people deserve our respect. Those people
496
00:45:01.119 --> 00:45:07.800
did their jobs bravely, and I
commend them their heroes. But the brass
497
00:45:07.840 --> 00:45:15.000
at the top let all of us
down, including their own employees. There
498
00:45:15.079 --> 00:45:19.360
should have been someone on that roof. There should have been someone on every
499
00:45:19.519 --> 00:45:23.519
roof within a thousand yards. This
guy was a football field, way a
500
00:45:23.599 --> 00:45:32.719
little over a football field with an
AR fifteen easy shot, easy shot.
501
00:45:34.280 --> 00:45:39.880
Donald Trump had God with him ninety
nine point ninety nine times out of one
502
00:45:39.960 --> 00:45:46.440
hundred. He ain't breathing. Thank
you Jesus, because our country would have
503
00:45:46.519 --> 00:45:51.679
never been the same. Thank you
so much for listening. Don't forget tonight
504
00:45:51.760 --> 00:45:57.199
at midnight regular episode drops. This
was just an emergency drop till next time
505
