Stupefied police on the ground beneath the roof of a building close to the rally site were unable to stop a shooter above whose location was exposed by nearby audience members at the Pennsylvania Trump rally.
The audience member who was pointing, trying to warn police about the rooftop camouflaged shooter said at an interview five shots were fired, and audio revealed they were fired in succession indicating a semi-automatic rifle was used.
A dopey media have cited an AR 16 type assault firearm as the weapon seized by police from the reportedly dead shooter. Notably, Biden has desperately been trying to ban AR assault weapons in the United States for several years.
No respectable assassin would use a Colt AR weapon, which is notoriously inaccurate at any range. It comes in military calibres of .223 and .308. US media quoted an unnamed source claiming the shooter took a shot at 120 metres.
Figuratively speaking an experienced shooter could not hit the side of a bus at 120 metres with an AR 16 or AR10. These rifles are designed as lead pelters heralding the first mistake made by those involved.
Biden will soon roll out the rhetoric to support his banning of assault rifles. The treacherous Democrats will try to blame Russia for the assassination attempt and barking mad Australian media, led by the ABC will echo the Russian ramblings just like a talking cockatoo.
US alphabet agencies this week will almost certainly parrot a web of Russian, Chinese or illegal immigrant conspiracies to kill Trump following the Lee Harvey Oswald script when Kennedy was shot in 1963. Deep State had John F Kennedy assassinated 61 years ago and they are at it again with Trump.
Coincidentally ASIO three days ago caught an alleged Australian spy who was emailing secret military material to Russia. As yet ASIO and the Federal Police have been unable to describe the content of the emails.

Correct. He didn’t want accuracy thats for sure. editor
Is that what military snipers use ? An AR-15 ? I don’t know much about guns, but it seems to me that the AR-15 is not a preferred choice of snipers based on videos I’ve seen over the years. Don’t presidentwannabee snipers prefer a bolt-operated rifle like a Carcano or Mauser ? So, the use of an AR-15 in this instance is clearly total popppycock.

zzz, one can probably throw in the fact that litigation is a clear and present threat to even the good agents, no-one wants to make a mistake. The sniper agent might have thought that the assassin was part of an operation he was unaware of, so he waited for verification.
News this morning from psy-op central (Misinfo Stream Media) is they are dragging an Iranian plot to assassinate Trump into the arena of public debate.
Sorry (not really) MSM, I’m all over it, I see you for who you are as individuals and who it is you all represent. MSM is the propaganda wing of the globalists who want most of us dead and our decades of sweat equity transferred to the parasite class.
I wonder what the inquiry into the Secret Service will show. The agent who was on top of the building opposite the shooter had him in his sights for at least 3 minutes before the shooting, but did not shoot because he was told to stand down by his boss.. He has gone on Twitter and actually posted that fact – probably to cover his back in case they try and blame him for not acting in time.
I think heads will roll over this… there was a huge lapse in security. Was it Deep State? They seem to be dropping the ball a lot don’t they..
I was sitting at the table, I was annoyed at the stuff up, I scrunched the paper and threw it at the bin, it bounced off the rim….
What a Trump presidency, Orban diplomacy and peace in Ukraine means at NATO.
From Politico July 11.
‘However closely watched Biden’s words and walking gait have been over the first two days of gatherings, his solo press conference Thursday evening will be the most critical set piece of the week, both for the president politically and the alliance.
Ivo Daalder, a former U.S. ambassador to NATO under President Barack Obama, said that NATO allies, many of which have already accelerated defense spending in response to the war in Ukraine, would continue working toward greater strategic autonomy as it becomes more likely in their view that Trump may win.
“NATO allies understand that the probability of a Trump administration has gone up dramatically since the debate,” Daalder said. “That’s just a reality people have to deal with, so that means more outreach to the Trump camp in the short term and more determination by European allies to get to a place where those countries are doing more things on their own.”
“I’m not going to comment on this topic,” said Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis, who walked off after speaking for just a few minutes. Others responded mostly with platitudes about respecting America’s democratic process and professions of faith that NATO will endure even if Trump is ushered back into office.’
From the Baltimore Chronicle July 15.
‘Ukraine needs to mobilize human resources. This is a war fought by 40-year-olds. No other war in history has been fought by 40-year-olds. You need to recruit 18 year olds, you need to recruit 20 year olds and you need to recruit 21 year olds,» — said Daalder.’
Even knowing Russia has won the war against Ukraine, physically and financially, European and U.S. grifters are willing to sacrifice Ukraine’s young people for the survival of NATO and their cash cow.
Trump is seen as a threat to NATO, “desperate times call for desperate measures.”

Agree, not a (made for purpose) sniper rifle.
Where medium to long range accuracy is the main concern and using the same caliber rounds, I would choose a bolt action rifle.
The assault rifles look more threatening – designed for the sole purpose of killing people. So are good value (if you want to have them banned) when they keep turning up at the scene of crimes and supposed crimes.
I see your point, if an assassin planned well, a more appropriate (one first shot in the head) weapon could have been used.
Up close and personal, it would not matter much, but start moving out the distance and applying the pressures such as adrenaline rush, etc, it has to be a purpose built bolt action.
The boy must have been a trained sharpshooter if he managed to nick Trump’s ear and come within a centimeter of killing him. Especially with a rifle most people couldn’t hit a barn door with at 100 yards.
The “lone assassins” always have a poor choice of weapons. And their handlers always seem to be of limited help in that respect.
As usual with these sorts of events, BS abounds. We’re always lead up a garden path or four! The truth would inevitably be a major nuisance.
Yeah I used one too and thought it was designed for a battlefield where general accuracy is unachievable. I once went with a Honolulu battallion to Mt Bundy firing range in the NT during an exercise. A whole platoon dropped to the groundfiring ARm16’s and was only able to place two hits on large anthill targets. I have fired both AR 15 and AR10 and my opinion never changed: they are suitable only for battlefields and certainly not a sniper rifle.Editor
Unless one has appeared since yesterday, Trump hasn’t nominated a second.
As geopolitical analyst Alex Christoforou suggested yesterday, with Trump out of the way there, was nothing to stop wealthy donors through bought off Republicans nominating one of their own as leader.
Who benefits from Trump pushing up daisies.
Russia’s economy is booming on the back of the Ukraine war as is Western military industrial complexes made up of lobbyists, wealthy individuals, banksters, corporations and institutions of defense contractors, private military contractors, departments of defence, politicians and their executive branches and proxies like Zelenskyy with his corrupt regime.
The World Bank recently upgraded Russia to a ‘High – Income’ country.
U.S. Secretary of the Treasury, Yellen has admitted sanctions against Russia have failed.
“In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist.” – Eisenhower
It’s said Trump wants peace in Ukraine.
I feel there were a lot of bets on that stray bullet snuffing out the killjoy.

Lindesymonds said – “One of the roof-top snipers (Jonathan Willis) we see in the videos of the Trump Rally is already on public record stating that with another unaccounted for sniper appearing on a roof-top over the rally, the head of secret service did not give the order to fire.”
Did we REALLY see Jonathon Willis on the roof-top?
Martin Armstrong says probably NOT – “There are claims that some Secret Service Agent Jonathan Willis said he was one of the two men in this photo and he was not given permission to shoot. This seems to be fake news claiming he was one of the two guys in the photo with “POLICE” on the back, which neither the FBI nor the Secret Service wear.”
He said, she said, they said, everyone trying to distract us and cover their butts… doesn’t really matter, SOMEONE tried to kill Trump and the people who were supposed to prevent that happening didn’t.
Lindesymonds said – “The Trumpies behind Trump in the line of fire are are all standing up and looking about and trying to figure out what happened.”
I’d suggest don’t quit your day job for an infantry or forensic investigator gig.
The “line of fire” traveled left-to-right across the stage. All the so-called “Trumpies” behind Trump were emphatically and orthogonally OUT of the “line of fire”. Those women screaming hysterically were presumably disturbed by some poor bastard/s inadvertently collecting a bullet either to the immediate LEFT or the RIGHT of the stage, neither of which were in camera view during the assassination attempt.
Meanwhile, some comments floating about the web point to Trump’s ear, as though there is some clinical definition of what that should look like. Suffice to say that his ear was clearly NICKED by SOMETHING akin to a one-hole paper punch, despite claims that it was all faked.
As to the bigger picture of what actually went down, don’t waste too much time with all the air-time analysis of all the minutiae and faux “investigations” that are surely coming. If you want the truth, just decide for yourself what happened and be done with it.
Lindesymonds come on, those shades she dropped were special services issue, can’t look the spook without them shades, so 🖕the Don.
BBC had their man placed in position; sad thing is, he couldn’t see it.

“the factory fitted iron sights on an AR 16 are not designed for accuracy.”
I no longer comment about other commentators posts, as warned by Editors not to argue with same.
But still OK with comments to Editor?
The AR 16 is a 7.62 (308) caliber version of the Colt AR 16 – 5.56 (223) caliber rifle, commonly known as (military designated ) the M16.
So whether talking about either the AR16 or the AR15, or the many improved, more modern versions of the AR15, both are way more than capable of producing accurate shots at the distance mentioned in the attempted assassination. Both can be fitted with scopes on top of the carry handle, there are holes drilled for same.
Good accuracy at 300 meters with iron sights is easily achievable by average shooters, with a scope mounted accuracy is improved.
I have fired and carried a Colt AR15 – M16, as an Australian soldier in the 70’s and 80’s.
Depending on the model AR15 including the present day improved versions, the effective ranges vary from 450 to 550 meters.
Even Wikipedia will confirm what I have indicated.
Back to your comment “the factory fitted iron sights on an AR 16 are not designed for accuracy.”
If they were not designed for accuracy (on the AR15 or AR16) why are they on the rifle? The inventor of the weapon would likely not agree with your statement, and who would buy an assault rifle (such as the Australian Army did) if the rifle and sights were not accurate?
Just my two cents worth.
Hi Bruce the factory fitted iron sights on an AR 16 are not designed for accuracy. Please explain how to fit a scope on this assault rifle. Without a scope it is hard to hit almost anything except maybe the ground. Ed
Hi Lyndesy looks like BBC staffed with mystics. Ed
I think there must be a night of the long knives to get rid these scum.
How did this 20 yr old know what roof to be on and how to get onto it, did he carry a ladder in his car with the bomb making stuff and rifle?
How is it that the BBC always has the camera on the WTC-7 Effect when shyte like this goes down?
An AR15? Trump still has his ear so he would seem to be grazed by the percussion of a semi auto-matic. The BBC camera is looking directly at the target and line of fire. Do you see anyone behind Trump go down covered in blood with a group of people gathered round, screaming (hysterically). Women especially tend to do that when someone is just sitting there and suddenly their head is blown off. Kind of like someone who was shot by an AR15. I don’t see that. The Trumpies behind Trump in the line of fire are are all standing up and looking about and trying to figure out what happened.
After Trump is shot, it is just unbelievable that the female security officer (attila the bun) bends down (takes cover) , ties her shoe (whatever ) thus exposing the man’s torso. This chic is one v dangerous diversity hire. She has no business being in a job that requires shooting, violence and judgement.
I can’t believe Trump would have hired someone with this level of incompetence for his security detail. That can only mean that the security detail was assigned.
One of the roof-top snipers (Jonathan Willis) we see in the videos of the Trump Rally is already on public record stating that with another unaccounted for sniper appearing on a roof-top over the rally, the head of secret service did not give the order to fire.
The WTC-7 Effects are piling up.

See the bullet leaving Trump’s ear? Magic, miracle and modern $cience.
Many questions being asked about the @DonaldTrump assassination attempt.
The assassination attempt is a CIA, #GloBaalist production, in which Donald Trump is an accomplice, to further instill division/hostility/rioting between those idol worshipping the left/right paradigm – two wings of the same bird.
Predictive programming of the masses has been ongoing since Trump’s selection as seen by Hollywood actors, pop stars and comedians.
What they really want is a National Divorce/Civil War to takedown the USA and make it ripe for the #NWO.
I’m calling BS on the statement that you couldn’t hit the side of abbus at 120 yards with an AR16, either in .223 or .308, you may need to do a few adjustments, give me either and I will prove it accurate to 300 metres.
theater play made by a i … divert attention ,from real issues… one world tyranny govt ,,, depopulation poisons etc etc
The New Atlas.. Brian Berletic and his take on what happened and the major security lapses… was it really just meant to be a distraction from all the other stuff going on…?
I’m 100% convinced in my opinion this was set up by the left. The Shooter conveniently got 5 shots off before he was immediately taken out, it happened that fast. How did they get eyes on the shooter that fast? After all they can’t have a shooter be caught alive he could talk. You can call this and other so called mass shootings conspiracy theories if you want but the movie “Manchurian Candidate” is real stuff.
Someone said on the news also that the Secret Service were not where they were supposed to be for some reason which was unusual… and that this would come under inquiry. Deep State is at it … I am sure Trump knows this. They can blame this on China or Russia or whomever they want, but Trump knows its an inside job.
Well, folks, if you’d like some nerdy ballistics analysis of what went down, look no further than Mike Adams aka the Health Ranger…
https://www.naturalnews.com/2024-07-13-trump-survives-assassination-attempt.html
Key quote – “My point is that it is only BY THE GRACE OF GOD that this bullet missed Trump’s skull and only pierced his ear.”
To clarify, the bullet fired from the left only missed Trump’s head because he turned to face the right side of the crowd at that very moment, during the bullet’s fifth-of-a-second trajectory from barrel to target.
Nothing is ever as it seems… no doubt the real truth will come out in time. This has probably sealed the election for Trump.
As for the Russian spies… it all seems to be rather murky. Wonder what they found out… it probably had to do with that place in the desert. Of course Australia has much blood on its hand.. Interestingly Steven Greer recently made a video talking about all the secret military sites around the world.. he went to a meeting with various defence big shots a little while ago and he said the Oz Minister for Defence was there and it appeared very evident that he had not been read into what is really happening out there.. They are using us!
https://i.imgflip.com/2/78do3o.jpg
I believe that we should have the right to defend ourselves, as well as to hunt for food using a firearm if that be the case. But you forgot to mention that the AR16 might not be able to hit the side of a bus, but there was supposedly a audience member that won’t be going home tonight. Smart people don’t sit behind politicians that so many on the left have called to be shot.
Editor, cairnsnews said – “Coincidentally ASIO three days ago caught an alleged Australian spy who was emailing secret military material to Russia.”
Couldn’t do any more harm to us than the foreign-owned COMMONWEALTH OF AUSTRALIA CORPORATION masquerading as our fake corporate “government” already is.
Oh, wait, sorry, my mistake. It’s not the Australian people they’re concerned about, is it?
A reminder of one of the main reasons why Deep State want President Trump dead.
