The data is leading us right back to the conclusion that there were two shooters that day in Butler taking shots at Trump and the stands. Audio analysis keeps pointing right back to our initial conclusion. Also, we can now rule out the lower windows in building 6 as the source of the first three shots (and realistically the next five as well).

The incredible Copenhaver film shows Crooks running across the AGR rooftops 3 minutes before the first shot rang out. This settles some questions, but raises many others, most notably how exactly are we supposed to believe that that the Secret Service agent in charge of placing the sniper teams was THAT incompetent?

An attempted assassination. A Democratic coup. Kamala wasn’t the border czar. Conservatives are “weird.” And a bizarre opening ceremony at the Olympics in France. We live in crazy times, right? But the markets just shrug these narratives off.

An ESU agent may be the hero of July 13th, 2024 having fired the 9th round and stopping Crooks from firing more. But the Secret Service comes off looking even worse for attempting to take credit for ending the threat while also throwing local police under the bus as often as possible. Truly deplorable behavior and I use that word carefully.

What were all the security personnel doing that day all around the AGR beside somehow entirely missing the presence of Crooks who a host of civilians spotted and were yelling about? There’s something quite fishy in this part of the story. It’s time to take a step back and apply first principles…

The official story is collapsing and the data is piling up! The “Stewart Film” is even more damning to the current official story than the Zapruder film was to the JFK fiction. Audio analysis re-confirms that the shots 1-3 are distinctly different sounding and quantitatively unlike shots 4-8. This best maps to the Two Shooters hypothesis.

The evidence is clear – Sniper Team #2 was in a perfect AND elevated position relative to Trump and therefore should have easily been able to spot Crooks. It’s possible they could have seen Crooks without him raising his head or being all the away to the ridge. Also, the lack of crime scene splatter isn’t consistent with Crooks’ head intercepting a .300 WinMag round.

The PA State Police are now at odds with the local Butler County authorities and that means there’s a chance this story could break open. So much hinges on exactly who failed to secure that two-story building and how the police could have fumbled Crooks being on the roof with a gun for so long. Hopefully one of them speaks up about the orders they received and who gave them.

The Investigation by the FBI and Secret Service is a complete clown show. Our ongoing investigation is firming up and has resolved the high likelihood of two shooters; it also raises troubling questions about who was in the building overlooking both the event itself and Crooks’ position.

Cheatle stonewalls and lies, while the grey-suited man raises questions. Meanwhile things look very bad for whoever was in the two story building and really tough and troubling questions emerge. The Citizens’ Investigation plows on!

More evidence that a second shooter (or more) were involved has emerged. Whoever was in that other building looking down at Crooks right before the shooting began has a lot of explaining to do. At a minimum…

Things are just getting weirder and weirder on the financial and economic landscape. Can they hold it all together until the elections? If so, how much longer after that?

Unless he had some help, it’s virtually impossible that Crooks managed to skulk about on a roof, with a rifle for so long without being stopped or challenged. And, how did the Secret Service miss placing one of their two sniper teams on the very best possible spot that would have stopped anyone from being where Crooks was shot dead?

There’s no path back to monetary sanity. That means more printing and more undeserved rewards to Wall Street insiders while a front of economic despair marches steadily northward through the social ranks.

If CBDC’s are broadly implemented, it’s over. There will be no more privacy, no more freedom, and our lives will be controlled by unseen people and AI programs nudging us toward thinking, saying and buying only the “right things.” Click Here for Part 2

Watch what they do, not what they say. Stocks are busy telegraphing the signal that ‘all is well!’ while bonds are sneaking out the back door.

The yen slices right through Japan’s defensive line at 160, housing sales slump as prices make one last push into truly insane territory and the equity “”markets”” are not behaving as if they are tethered to either economic data or geopolitical risk.

We’ve come to the end of the road. There’s no more ‘can-kicking’ to be done. The US is now in the exponential blow-off phase of fiscal irresponsibility and the Fed is out of options. Save the Dollar or save the Treasury bond market. The BRICS have long-since figured this out. Now it’s time for Western investors to catch on.

As we lurch toward war, the sensitive topic of the drained strategic petroleum reserve is sure to crop up. Perhaps in an effort to blunt that among its dwindling viewer base, MSNBC tells a whopper of a lie.

The BLS turns in a whopper, continuing the steady stream of fraudulent economic statistics we been gaslit with of late. Oh, and Saudi Arabia is frowning at the Kissinger era petrodollar agreement…so the US has offered a binding treaty to come to their aid if they are attacked. Wait…I thought the US didn’t need anybody’s oil anmore?

When shall the US government return to sanity? “Nevermore!” our guest Chris Irons might say. Without necessary guardrails and consequences the failed leadership of DC and the Fed have taken us down a paths that had a binary outcome; bad and worse. Click Here for Part 2

Trying to make sense of the world these days is certainly a full-time job. Among the many puzzling signals right now are Us and European equities powering higher and higher without any apparent regard for the risk of a war with Russia, deteriorating consumer data, or a still inverted yield curve (a historically accurate indicator of an imminent recession).
