The second suspect accused of trying to take out former President Donald Trump at the Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach over the weekend has, so far, only been charged with firearm offenses. 58-year-old Ryan Wesley Routh, of Hawaii, the alleged would-be Trump assassin, was charged with possession of a firearm by a convicted felon and possession and receipt of a firearm with an obliterated serial number, according to a U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) press release.

Comments:

A pathetic loser with little income and no savings somehow travels to Florida, acquires state of the art tools, and knows to show up at the exact place and time where he could knock off Donald Trump. Let's waterboard this guy until we get the whole story.

Those charges are just so they can keep him locked up while the investigation is happening. Additional charges will be filed as more information comes to light. This happened Florida. Expect the book (and the bookcase) to be thrown at him!!

As far as adsassination attempt the evidence I've seen produced so far is compelling but circumstantial. if there is nothing to tie him directly to the evidence there is no case. just being there and fleeing won't hold up.

Just think, if this had happened in Noo Yawk, they would have released him (but only because he is anti Deep State) on his own recognizance. More seriously..... Where did he get the firearm? Did he bring it from Hawaii, or did he get it locally, perhaps from some of his buddies from his NC criminal days? On the other hand, do we want to get conspiratorial, and consider a Deep State source? Hopefully, Desantis' people will figure it out. I would not trust the "FIBbers" or the "SS" on this one. Too much EVIL has happened on their watch already. Suggest Trump adopt the theme song "I'm Still Standing!" Spread the idea.... maybe someone here or in conservative media will come up with a song using the melody, but with lyrics applicable to today's situation.

Fly him back to Hawaii, and open the door half way back and let him out.

Legitimate question... Other than a firearms violation, what charge would apply to someone with a rifle in a public space 400 yards from the former president? I am not sure they really have much here. No shot was fired. Can we really extrapolate from the facts and charge based on assumption... no matter how strong such an assumption would be? This could be problematic.

Going forward, pedestrians in the Big Apple can cross the street wherever they please thanks to a new rule decriminalizing jaywalking. The reason why jaywalking was legalized? Because apparently, tickets for jaywalking were previously “disproportionately” given to people of color. According to the Associated Press, Council Member Mercedes Narcisse (D), sponsored the legislation to end these racial disparities in enforcement. Reportedly, more than 90 percent of jaywalking tickets issued last year were to black and Latino people.

An ad that encourages women to lie to their husbands about supporting Kamala Harris is getting blasted on social media.

There appears to be some election shenanigans happening on the Left Coast. In Oregon and Washington, someone dropped incendiary devices into ballot drop boxes.

Authorities have a vehicle of interest connected to the ballot box fires captured on video, though the license plate was missing.

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz’s (D) children were not conceived through in vitro fertilization (IVF), the Harris-Walz campaign confirmed this week. This comes after Walz claimed multiple times that he owes his two children to IVF. According to The New York Times, “many have assumed” that Walz and his wife, Gwen, relied on IVF to conceive. This includes several prominent news outlets that reported that the couple used IVF. In April, the Tim Walz for Governor campaign office mailed out a fundraising letter in an envelope that said, “My wife and I used IVF to start a family,” the Times pointed out.

Democrat presidential nominee Kamala Harris has chosen far-left Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her VP pick, snubbing popular Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro, a moderate Jewish Democrat whose support for Israel in the war against Hamas had ticked off the antisemitic wing of Kamala's party. So Shapiro, at the behest of the Democrat establishment, was officially dumped in favor of a Bernie Sanders-aligned leftist. Here's what Walz believes in, making the 2024 Democrat ticket the most extreme ever assembled in U.S. history:

The Democratic National Convention plans to spend the entire first evening of the event boasting about President Joe Biden’s so-called “accomplishments” and spin his presidency so it appears he’s leaving a “legacy” behind. A source close to the matter told CNN that the event’s programming will focus on celebrating Biden before he turns the “keys over” to Vice President Kamala Harris— the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee. The 81-year-old president, who was forced out of the 2024 race a few weeks ago, will give one last primetime address at the convention in Chicago next month.

Biden - infamous for his playful interaction with children at public events - also feigned fright at the creepy costumes of his young visitors alongside his wife Jill who was dressed in a full-body panda suit. The 81-year-old president was pictured biting the leg of a baby dressed as a turkey, chomping the toe of a child in an ice cream cone costume and nibbling at a third baby wearing a blue dress.

The Supreme Court ruled Wednesday that Virginia is entitled to remove noncitizen aliens from its voter rolls, siding with the commonwealth over lower courts less than a week out from the election. The order comes two days after Virginia attorney general Jason Miyares filed an emergency application, requesting that the Court stay an injunction that ordered Virginia to restore some 1,600 suspected noncitizens who are ineligible to vote to the state’s voter rolls. A federal appeals court upheld the injunction on Sunday, quickly prompting the attorney general to appeal to the Supreme Court.

ABC ignited a flurry of conspiracy theories after it aired what appeared to be official election results for Pennsylvania that showed Kamala Harris easily winning the key swing state — more than a week before Election Day. The shocking result popped up at the bottom of the screen during Sunday’s broadcast of the Formula 1 Mexico Grand Prix by ABC local affiliate WNEP-TV, which services the northern part of the Keystone State. It showed the Vice President capturing 52% of the votes, compared to 47% for Republican challenger Donald Trump, with 100% of the precincts reporting.

Democrats went into damage-control mode Tuesday night due to the president’s trash talk, claiming that Biden hadn’t intended to demonize his party’s political opponents just seven days before voters head to the polls. “The President referred to the hateful rhetoric at the Madison Square Garden rally as ‘garbage,’” White House spokesman Andrew Bates said in a statement.

Despite that, the Terminator star, 77, said that it's time for the country 'to move forward', and that 'the only way to do that is with Harris and Walz'.

ABC has sparked wild conspiracy theories after mistakenly airing election results for Pennsylvania. The results appeared on the ticker along the bottom of the screen during a broadcast of the Formula 1 Mexico Grand Prix by ABC local affiliate WNEP-TV on Sunday. It showed Kamala Harris taking the state with 52 percent of the votes, while Donald Trump's share was 47 percent. It instantly prompted claims of election rigging on social media, with one person tweeting: 'The cheat is on.' WNEP-TV said that the numbers came up on the screen in 'error' and that they had been 'randomly generated' as part of a test ahead of election night on November 5.
