071125: EXCLUSIVE: What We Know About Trump's Would-Be Assassin One Year Later
It just occurred to me: The most famous Butler in the world is no longer Alfred.
It’s Friday, July 11, and a new dispatch has arrived.
“Fight! Fight! Fight!” Butler Assassination Attempt One Year Later
Sunday marks the 1st anniversary of the attempted assassination of Donald Trump. Or should we say “first attempted assassination” of Trump. Or more accurately the first attempted assassination of Trump caught on TV.
Trump took a bullet through the ear, got up, pumped his fist and yelled “Fight! Fight! Fight!”
And the DNC said, “We’re through. We’re through. We’re through.”
We’re talking about one of the most iconic … and miraculous … moments in American history. Actually, do you have a more iconic and miraculous one?
You know the line “God shed His grace on thee”? That’s what we got in Butler.
Unfortunately, we also got the Keystone Cops … or more accurately, agents.
The punk was on the roof so long, he could have ordered a pizza.
Several of the Secret Service who were there are featured in a new Southwest Airlines ad. You know the ones. An employee screws up: “Need to get away?” What. Too soon?
Six Secret Service personnel were suspended over failures that day, but none were fired. Really? DOGE has people getting fired all over the government, but THEY get to keep their jobs?
Remember that DEI Secret Service Director who offered the excuse that the roof was too steep to put anybody on it? She was one of Jill Biden’s pets. Nope, can’t blame this one the autopen.
EXCLUSIVE: What We Know About Shooter Thomas Crooks
In a Bananas Republic exclusive, I would like to report on all we know today about would-be assassin Thomas Crooks that we did not know within hours of the shooting:
If anything more than this exhaustive list emerges over the weekend, we’ll report on it Monday.
But seriously … Why is it we know more about Diddy’s sex habits than we do some guy who nearly killed a president? ‘
New Book Reveals What Trump and Obama Were Laughing About at Carter’s Funeral
At Jimmy Carter’s funeral, Donald Trump and Barack Obama laughed and chuckled like old buddies. But what were they laughing about? Dr. Jill’s fashion sense? Kamala’s lack of sense? Trump giving Barack divorce tips?
According to a new book, they were talking about golf. Trump was trying to sell Obama on playing his courses.
Then Bill Clinton leaned over and said, “What’s this about playing around?”
Actually, getting the living presidents together wouldn’t be a bad idea as part of the America 250. The President’s 250 Championship. The four living presidents hosting a pro-am together and partying it up for a weekend. Sure, it might get as ugly as the UFC fight Trump has planned for the White House, but it could also help heal the partisan divide.
Michelle Obama Says It’s Tough to Be a Woman
“Tell me about it,” said Tim Walz.
Tim Walz Spent $430,000 in State Money to Prepare for a Congressional Hearing
A few weeks back Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz testified before a congressional hearing on sanctuary cities and states. We’re now learning Walz spent $430,000 in state money on legal fees preparing for the hearing.
Man, you know how many tampons that could have bought for boys bathrooms?!
If you have to spend two months and nearly half a million to prepare to defend a policy, it’s a crap policy. And Democrats want us to think this guy was prepared to be the 2nd most powerful person in the world?
At least Kamala would have had the decency to blow the money on booze.
And that’s it for now. Have a great weekend.
I too like the idea of a 250 Presidents Championship. It might be just what we need. Also, thanks for the info about the $430,000 Waltz spent on prepping for his hearing. I haven't heard this anywhere else. This is something that needs to be out there. What a waste of $! Have a good weekend Al.
In all seriousness, Al, the Presidents 250 Golf Classic IS an exceptional idea!! Who in the White House's Circle can you pitch it to??
