The Elite Strikes Back

Part I: Implications of the failed assassination attempt of President Donald J. Trump (Free)

Issues discussed:

• The cataclysmic failure of the Secret Service to protect a former President and a Presidential candidate Donald J. Trump.

• Mounting evidence of a conspiracy behind the assassination attempt.

• Warning on a possible series of events aimed at destabilizing western societies.

On Saturday we witnessed something I have worried for some time. There was a failed attempt on President Donald John Trump’s life in a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.

In this entry, I go through what happened and what are the likely implications of this monstrosity. I especially concentrate on the worst-case scenario, implicating the White House, and presenting the failed assassination attempt as a starting point of series of events aimed at destabilizing western societies.

To note, if DJT assassination attempt was not a conspiracy, which would open a whole another set of legal proceedings, the Director of Secret Service, Kimberly A. Cheatle, has utterly failed on her main duty to protect the former President, and she must resign or be fired, immediately. However, at this point, based on the evidence, I think that the failure of United States Secret Service, or USSS, was simply too massive to be a failure. That is, I currently consider that there was a conspiracy aimed to assassinate President Trump. Let’s dive into the evidence.

The ‘lone gunman’, again?

What we know is that at around 6:11pm, EST, Thomas Matthew Crooks shot several bullets towards Donald Trump, killing one bystander and seriously injuring two others. A bullet pierced the upper part of the right ear of President Trump causing a relatively heavy bleeding. A sniper of the Secret Service shot and killed the shooter right after. Here’s a video of the incident. Trump was quickly covered by secret service agents and rushed to safety. He appeared some time later with a patch over his right ear.

Questions linger. Especially, how could this happen?

In the video above, you see the Secret Service agent aiming at something and firing only after the shots to President Trump rang out. Soon after the incident, there were messages posted to social media messaging platforms, written by a person claiming to be the USSS sniper in the video (Jonathan Willis), telling a story of orders “not to engage” the shooter even though he clearly saw him crawling into a position. There naturally is no way to debunk or corroborate these messages at this point.

But, there’s a very revealing multi-cam video showing that authorities had plenty of time to eliminate the threat with several people pointing the shooter out minutes before the shots were fired. Moreover, there's an eye-wittnes account from a man who saw the sniper crawling into a position which he reported to law enforcement officers, on BBC. It's unfathomable and very worrying that the Secret Service failed to react to this threat. The Secret Service is, quite rightly so, receiving heavy criticism and accusations of “malice”.

Alas, these pieces of preliminary and partly uncorroborated information give rise to the possibility that there was a conspiracy behind the attempt on Donald Trump’s life. This would have earth-shattering ramifications, because it would implicate the White House and the the sitting President Joe Biden. This is because, organizationally, the USSS (the United States Secret Service) is under Department of Homeland Security, which is headed by the Secretary of Homeland Security with the assistance of the Deputy Secretary. That is, Secret Service is controlled by the Biden administration.

These developments remind me on the very strange turn the USSS made the motorcade of John Fitzgerald Kennedy conduct in Dallas on 22 November, 1963. I visited the Sixth Floor Museum, dedicated to the assassination of JFK, and the Daley Plaza in Dallas in December. The turn in the route away from the Main Street in the front of the book depository in an open limo was utterly futile and dangerous as it meant that limousine carrying JFK needed to conduct a 90 degree turn at walking speed in front of the depository. I detail this a bit more in the Conclusions.

Is there a plan?

In the “best case”, we have seen a cataclysmic failure of the USSS, and in the worst case a conspiracy to assassinate a former President and a presidential candidate. At this point, I consider it likely for this to be conspiracy, but what else would such a worst case scenario imply than serious political turmoil in the U.S.?

If we consider the likely aims of the global elite, possibly run by the ‘group-over-groups’, we need to see the assassination attempt as a likely opening ‘gambit’ for a series of events aimed at establishing the continuation of their rule through destabilization of our societies. There are indications that the elites are losing control, which is pushing them to desperate measures. We already saw this in France, where the ruling elite pulled all the tricks to manufacture a loss for the National Rally -party led by Marion Anne Perrine, better known as Marine Le Penn, in the legislative elections held on 30 June and 7 July. Yet, DJT re-establishing his presidency would be a grave threat to the (likely) aims of the elite, as he would most likely push for de-escalation and peace in Ukraine, while possibly undermining the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, or NATO, and the war the alliance is waging against Russia, and China.

I am rather certain that the now-obviously-demented President Biden is a perfect U.S. leader for the elite and the ‘deep state’. They would like to have him, or another candidate they can control, to remain in power in the U.S. This requires removing the most strong anti-elite candidate, DJT, from the ballot. They tried the legal way, but failed. Now, it seems, they tried to remove him ex toto.

If such a malicious plan exists, the elite is also likely to seek two other developments:

1. Deeper control (“integration”) within Europe.

2. Deepening escalation, globally.

I need to write another piece on the tightening grip of the EU over Europe at some point, but the fact remains that the approaching recession and economic crisis are likely to rise to threaten the existence of the common currency and the EU. While Corona did not deliver a fatal blow to the euro, like we at GnS Economics suspected it could in 2020, the monumental challenges faced by euro remain unchanged. If euro would break up, the EU would be likely to follow. The approaching recession and another, bigger wave of the banking crisis, would be likely to bring euro and the EU to the brink of failure. How to stop this? Create a big enough (mortal) fear so that a deeper integration will be accepted by the general populace. Two actions can be used to establish this:

1. A major terrorist attack in Europe.

2. Massive escalation in Ukraine.

The terror attack, possibly indirectly blaming Russia and/or her allies, could be used to push the surveillance state further in the EU, while uniting the European populace under “one banner”. Russia would also need to be shown as a mortal threat to the European security, possibly to push through an European Defense Union.

The latter requires a major escalation in Ukraine. This could even take the form a tactical nuclear strike. There are two venues to establish this. First is to irritate Russia to a point, by e.g. strikes deeply into Russia, where Kremlin decides to draw a definite red line by using a tactical nuclear weapon in Ukraine. The second is to conduct a series of ‘false flag’ events blaming Russia. These may include attacks to a nuclear power plant in Ukraine or even a nuclear detonation, blaming russia.

Conclusions

Trying out the extremely difficult angle Lee Harvey Oswald would have had to take to shoot at the JFK motorcade (back against the wall with around 80 degree angle from the window) in the Sixth Floor Museum made it perfectly clear to me that he did not shoot Kennedy. There was a perfect shot-position from the sixth floor window, when the motorcade slowed to make the utterly unnecessary 90 degree turn right in front of the Texas School Book Depository. However, quickly after, when the motorcade started to head down the Elm Street, the angle and shooting positions rapidly become (very) sub-optimal. Moreover, the ‘grassy knoll’ was a perfect place to shoot an approaching target. The actions of the Secret Service during that fatal day also rise some serious questions.

In the worst case, we witnessed a repetition of a conspiracy aimed at killing a former and a likely coming U.S. President on Saturday. The implications of such would be cataclysmic not just for the U.S. but the world, as it would imply a series of '“destabilizing” events to come. Moreover, there is a limited time window for such events, as the U.S. Presidential elections (5 November) are fast approaching. I would say that if such actions (events) come, they would need to take place in early October, the latest. After that they would be too close to the elections causing unnecessary uncertainty especially to the party holding the White House.

This, again, is a worst-case scenario, which existence we have to acknowledge. I give no likelihood for this scenario at this point, but note that I consider it to be relatively high. Let’s hope I am wrong, in all of this.
