A bullet hit a United States president for the first time in 43 years. They say it was a failed assassination attempt because the bullet did not kill Donald Trump. That is true, but we should not forget that, at the same time, Biden’s political career was killed outright. In fact, this inaccurate shot may be the beginning of the end of the Democrat party in its present form. If this happens, it will lead to a long-term inactivation of most leftist movements in America.
Biden had a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to alter the path of his decline into oblivion.

United States Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle should be out of a job now. Her agency failed to protect former President Donald Trump, who was nearly assassinated in Butler, Pennsylvania on July 13. A rooftop with a clear vantage point to the stage at the rally was never secured or even swept—all of this when the location was flagged as a security vulnerability. Trump escaped death that day, missing getting hit with a fatal headshot by millimeters. Why wasn’t the roof secure? Cheatle said that the sloped roof was a safety concern. I’m not kidding:

While we’re waiting for the Lord Almighty to weigh in on President Biden’s political future, we’ve been subjected to a display of Democrat disingenuousness that is not only breathtaking, but also, in the favorite phrase of the left, an “existential threat” to all Democrat politicians’ chances in the November election.
Like Captain Renault in Casablanca, most Democrat politicians and pundits were pretending to be shocked — shocked! — at the sudden show of impairment exhibited by our “sharp, focused, engaged” president in the recent debate against Donald Trump.
Most rank-and-file Democrats, on the other hand, were probably genuinely shocked to see their candidate falter so abysmally.

A potentially explosive new development in the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump on Saturday has been revealed. Fox News reports that the parents of 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks were "looking for him" and called law enforcement to alert them that he was missing. Thomas Matthew Crooks’ parents were looking for him on Saturday in the hours leading up to the Trump rally shooting and eventually called law enforcement to indicate that he was missing and they were worried, Fox News has learned.
It’s unclear what his parents told authorities

Former RNC Chair Michael Steele floated a debunked conspiracy theory that a shard of glass injured former President Donald Trump’s ear during Saturday's assassination attempt rather than a bullet. Speaking on MSNBC, Steele said no medical reports have been released and questioned the extent the ear was injured. Despite left-leaning fact checkers such as Snopes giving a false rating to claims that glass from a teleprompter hit Trump’s ear, the commentator floated the theory anyway.

Actor and Comedian Jack Black is facing major backlash after his bandmate said, “Don’t miss Trump next time” while on stage at a concert in Sydney, Australia.
Black’s bandmate made the sickening comment just hours after the attempted assassination of President Donald Trump at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.
In a video of the concert, Black is seen giving his Tenacious D band member Kyle Gass a birthday cake during their concert at the ICC Sydney Theatre.
Black tells Gass to “make a wish.”

On Monday's installment of "The View," the ill-adjusted cohosts said that they would "try to heed" President Joe Biden's quite hypocritical admonition to "tamp down the rhetoric" and "turn down the temperature" following the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump. Predictably, they failed to control their normal divisiveness. Within a few sentences of saying she wanted to reflect and seek unity, Ana Navarro and Joy Behar immediately dove into an identity-obsessed discussion of the would-be assassin:

George Stephanopoulos on Sunday reacted to the news that President Trump was shot in a failed assassination attempt, ignoring the divisiveness and violent rhetoric from the left and claiming, “President Trump and his supporters have contributed to this violent rhetoric as well.”
Chief Global Affairs Correspondent Martha Raddatz, in the clip below, discussed the attempted assassination with Stephanopoulos and said that no matter what, “you are going to hear conspiracy theories going forward.” Just like we did after the JFK assassination, right?

As The Gateway Pundit reported, President Trump was nearly assassinated last night during a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, by a 20-year-old Democrat donor named Thomas Matthew Crooks.
Trump immediately grabbed his neck after being shot while bleeding profusely from his ear. Video recordings of the scene also show Trump ducking down immediately after the initial gunshots were heard.
Secret Service agents promptly shielded Trump and guided him away from further harm. Despite being injured, a defiant Trump raised his fist and yelled “Fight!” multiple times toward the crowd.

Some thoughts on the attempted assassination of former president Donald Trump. First, regarding the Secret Service. It is all well and good that the agents at the scene reacted as trained and instantly covered and shielded the former president with their bodies, willingly accepting the possibility of being mortally wounded in the interest of protecting Donald Trump. However, that type of response indicates an abject failure of the protective mission. It seems that only a providential head turn to the right saved Donald Trump’s life.

Ages ago—that would be May in the year of our Lord 2024—George Clooney contacted Poseur Joe Biden on behalf of Amal Clooney, George’s spouse:
George Clooney contacted a top White House official last month to complain after President Biden criticized the International Criminal Court’s decision to seek a warrant against top Israeli officials over the war in Gaza, a case the actor’s wife had worked on, according to two people familiar with the situation.
[snip]
Mr. Clooney is scheduled to appear at a high-dollar June 15 fund-raiser for Mr. Biden in Los Angeles, with former President Barack Obama in attendance.

Victor Davis Hanson’s latest book is a macabre warning to an aging America as it closes in on its 250th birthday. The warning comes in the form of a graphic depiction of the hideousness of war and the terrifying state of those who suffer ignominious defeat.
However different the four societies described in the book were, be they Thebans, Carthaginians, Byzantines, or Aztecs, each was blinded by the illusion of invincibility. Hanson shows that such an illusion is so persistent that even as the conquered were being slaughtered, they continued to think: “It cannot happen here.”
