FROM THE PUBLISHER’S

FROM THE PUBLISHER’S DESK STILL STANDING Only by the Grace of God On Saturday, July 13 at 6:11PM Eastern Time, 20-year-old Thomas Michael Crooks attempted to kill former President Donald Trump. Like the assassination of JFK and the Twin Towers falling, everyone will remember where they were and what they were doing when they heard the news “Trump has been shot!” As you know, Trump is OK and went on to become the Republican nominee the following week in Minnesota. Unfortunately, a family had to bury Cory Comperatore, who was killed protecting his family. Two other supporters are still recovering from gunshots as well. Despite what the main stream media says, Democrats and Joe Biden incited this shooting. They have portrayed Trump as everything from Hitler to the Devil. Their lies and hatred towards Trump have fueled a rage in people that led to one young man trying to take out the ‘enemy.’ Biden says violence has no place in politics, yet he is the one who advocated for it in the first place. Once you use the words “Trump has a target on his back” you’re in a sense saying we need to end this guy. Biden says electing Trump will end Democracy, yet what he is advocating did just that. Some Democrats hate Trump so much they would rather see him dead, than back in the White House. Despite your political views, violence has no place in politics or anywhere else in our society. This campaign should be about what each man will do for us as Americans, how our lives and our children’s lives will be better if they are President. If you can’t make your case to the American people without destroying your opponent, you don’t deserve to be president. But had the Secret Service done their job, we wouldn’t even be having this conversation. The USSS advance team obviously had their heads up their asses not to see that an elevated position was open and unsecured. And if it is true that they were understaffed, why didn’t they have local police on that roof. And why didn’t they have airborne surveillance and drones up? It only takes one person to operate a drone. So many questions and yet the Head of the Secret Service, Director Kimberly Cheatle didn’t even bother to attend the briefing that night or the next day, or visit the site. And don’t get me started on the woke ass female agent who hid behind the podium, couldn’t holster her gun and had no frickin idea what to do when they were ready to take Trump to the hospital The entire operation was one giant cluster fuck. But you can rest assured that Biden won’t fire Cheatle, and Mayorkas won’t fire her either. We’ll have to wait until next January when Trump takes office and then we’ll see changes. Thanks to God Almighty for saving Donald Trump. Because regardless of what higher power you believe in, what you saw on July 13 was an outright miracle. Let’s hope and pray God continues to watch over and protect President Trump. Finally, I’d like to ask everyone to say a prayer and lend your support to Cory Comperatore’s family. Cory was killed by the gunman and died protecting his family. Cory was a former fire chief of the Buffalo Township department, and we need to remember him for the true hero he was. 6 The Blues - August ‘24
