This is a very important topic.
As you guys know, there was a second attempt on former...
President Donald Trump again here in Florida, up in West Palm Beach, which is about an hour to 90 minutes or so away.
It's about 60 miles, not too far from Miami.
Xander Navarro says, Ant's advice on masking on small business for me when I had a stroke at 14, currently 18?
Bro, I don't know what you're saying.
Guys, please, like, double check, spell check your chats when you send them in so I can read them quickly and efficiently, so I can, like, ask your guys questions, answer your guys' questions.
But yeah, we're back on all the platforms, guys.
We are everywhere.
All right, so kind of let's just get right into it, man So here I We got...
So, this is from the New York Post.
Would-be Trump assassin ID'd as Ryan Ruth, 58 of Hawaii's sources say.
Okay, and this was published about 45 minutes ago.
Ryan Wesley Ruth, 58, has been identified as a suspect who was arrested after allegedly pointing an AK-47 assault rifle at former President Trump while he golfed, according to law enforcement sources.
Ruth frequently touted his do-gooder credentials and championed left-wing causes on social media.
You guys can see, obviously, the law enforcement presence.
His LinkedIn showed that he attended North Carolina Agriculture and Technical State University but relocated to Hawaii sometime around 2018.
Ruth describes on LinkedIn as mechanically minded and enjoying ideas and invention and creative projects with artistic flair.
Ruth was spotted by Secret Service agents near the Trump International Golf Club, West Palm Beach, with an AK-47 according to sources.
The agents opened fire on him, but he fled.
Ruth was later arrested on I-95 by local police.
And just so you guys know, I-95 goes from Miami, actually starts down here in Miami, Coral Gables area.
It goes all the way up to Vermont, and it does go through West Palm Beach, which is where the president lives with Mar-a-Lago.
Ruth is the owner of Camp Box Honolulu, a shed-building company with few positive reviews.
While Ruth hadn't posted on his exit account in a year, he frequently criticized politicians, including Trump, current President Joe Biden, and celebrities like Bruno Mars.
So, he was stopped right here, and Trump's West Palm Beach golf course is here.
So, let's see if we can enlarge this thing.
No?
Goddammit.
No, we can't.
But you guys can see here, Let me see if I can...
95 is right here, guys.
This line right here, this is all 95, right?
So, this is where the shooting happened, and they caught him a few miles up, okay?
And this is what he had, would-be assassin that's where authorities found a rifle, backpack, and GoPro camera, right?
So the guy was trying to go viral, clearly, right?
And then the would-be-assass will stop at I-95, Martin County Sheriff's Office, right?
And you can see here, this is more northern Florida.
Well, the tip of southern Florida, right?
You're starting to get into northern Florida territory.
This is what you got here.
Many of his replies are nonsensical, including one directed towards ex-owner Elon Musk in which he seemed to entertain purchasing a rocket from the billionaire.
I would like to buy a rocket from you.
I wish to load it with a warhead for Putin's Black Sea Mansion bunker to end him.
Can you give me a price, please?
It can be old and used as not returning, Ruth wrote.
This dude's crazy.
I'm glad this guy's off his fucking rocker, okay?
Ruth was a supporter of Vivek Ramaswamy and Nikki Haley.
Nikki Haley, not surprised, the war hawk.
According to one of his posts in which he encouraged the Republican presidential candidates to continue their races, you cannot quit.
Why?
You must stay on the ballot to the end.
You must fight.
You must continue giving speeches and push all the way to election day, no matter the election results.
Do not give in.
Join Nikki and keep working.
Never give up, he wrote.
Yeah, this guy's a Nikki Haley supporter.
You can tell where he's fucking...
Ruth is also a staunch supporter of Ukraine and Taiwan and their respective conflicts against Russia and China.
He claims on X that he tried to sell the idea of having former Afghanistan troopers fight for Ukraine and Russia but was denied multiple times before giving up after six months.
He also visited Kiev and claimed that he would be willing to fight on the front lines if he were permitted to.
This is a breaking story.
Please check back for update.
So we'll keep refreshing this, guys.
Here's his ex-account, right?
The guy is clearly killed.
Hashtag killed.
Killed anywhere is extremely tragic.
This guy's off his rocker, right?
So this was a press conference by law enforcement right after the shooting.
This went down maybe an hour ago or so.
And here's from Laura Loomer.
She's actually there right now as we speak in the area.
Man who tried to assassinate President Trump identified as Ryan Ruth, an avid Biden-Harris supporter who called Donald Trump a threat to democracy.
Fox News reporting that the man who was arrested today with a GoPro, a back panic, an AK-47, what the FBI is calling an attempted assassination Let me enlarge this for y'all real quick.
He also said he has been to Ukraine to fight in the war.
He also posted, I have thousands of Afghan soldiers that wish to serve for Haiti National Police at cheap wages.
What a weirdo.
After the first assassination attempt of President Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania, Ruth posted a tweet to Joe Biden on X telling him that he should go to the funeral at Corey Kompator as the firefighter who was tragically shot killed at the rally because that's what real leaders do, and Trump certainly never would.
As you guys remember, back in July 13th, Earlier this year, we saw Corey Comptor was fatally shot by the shooter.
Oh my God, his name is escaping me right now.
Krutz, somebody in the chat.
I can't believe I forgot his name already.
Matthew Crooks, excuse me.
Excuse me for that.
Matthew Crooks obviously shot Mr.
President and hit Corey as he was trying to shield his family.
You know, a firefighter.
Rest in peace to him.
Trump actually, a couple of days later at the RNC, had his firefighter uniform there to commemorate him, which I thought was an awesome ceremony.
And that was in Milwaukee a couple of months back.
The man who tried to take Trump's life today was radicalized by Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, the Democrats, and their claims that President Trump is a threat to democracy.
And here you can see, Laura has some of his tweets, right?
POTUS, your campaign should be called something like K-A-D-F. Keep America democratic and free.
Trump should be massa.
Make American slaves again, master.
Democracy is on the ballot and we cannot lose.
We cannot afford to fail.
The world is counting on us to show that way.
This was April 22nd of this year.
Then, he comments on three days after the assassination.
Joe Biden, you should visit the victims in the hospital of the Trump rally victims and attend the funeral of the firemen that died.
Trump certainly never would.
Show the world what real leaders do.
Then, this was in 2022, a little over two years ago.
I'm willing to fly to Ukraine and die for its people and everyone around the globe should do the same.
Come on, people.
And this was right after the invasion, as you guys can see here, February 20, 2022.
That's when Russia invaded.
And that's him after he was captured, it looks like, earlier today.
And then here's his actual Twitter account.
And the last time he tweeted, guys, was, at least that we can see here, might have deleted his earlier tweets, Was 2023, at least what's visible.
Click here, replies.
Yeah, okay, so July 17th.
Kamala Harris and Joe Biden should visit injured people.
Boom.
Drop his number in here?
This is a weirdo.
And then he responds to Bruno Mars.
We're trying to save the haiku stairs.
Bruno helped with the nanatorium.
And we need this help now to save this.
So it looks like this is his phone number here, more than likely.
Yeah.
To save this World War II landmark for our kids, please help.
Aid in Ukraine.
Court grant our injunction.
Please do a trailhead ASAP. Okay.
That's interesting.
This is very, very interesting.
And we got, let's see here.
We got 1,400 of you guys watching on Fresh and Fit.
And we got another...
Oh, wow.
Fresh and Fit.
And then on...
Yeah, so it's literally split down the middle.
1,400 of you guys watching on Fed Reacts.
And then...
Almost 5k on you guys over here.
So what I'm going to do, guys, I'm probably going to end the Fresh at Fit stream here soon.
And I'm going to bring you guys over to FedReacts.
And we'll finish this thing over on Rumble and YouTube.
And obviously we're on Twitch as well.
Which, by the way, if you guys don't mind, real quick...
I'm trying to grow the Twitch.
If you guys can open up another tab on Twitch, twitch.tv slash freshandfit.
I'll drop the link for you guys here in the chat if you guys really want to support.
Everyone is trying to say that, oh yeah, you guys are going to get banned, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
And they were like preying on our downfall.
It's actually incredible how many people want us to like get banned.
It's actually pretty sick.
But I'll pin it here if you guys don't mind supporting.
And we're going to probably do a subathon for you guys as well on Twitch.
This Tuesday is what I'm thinking.
So, I pinned it for you guys there.
Alright, put it in the chat on FedReacts.
Yeah, so open up a tab, watch on Twitch as well.
Trying to grow that thing up.
So, let's see here.
Let's go back to...
So let's go ahead, and we're going through some of his tweets here.
Yeah, you guys can see this dude's office rockers.
We must remove Rick from office.
I'm thinking we can get Kirk Caldwell to join to make a team to win the mayor's seat.
Please reach out to me.
Dude puts his number in there, and then aid in Ukraine is his email.
Who's Keith Emendia?
Who is this guy?
Senior Vice President, Central Pacific Bank, President of Downtown Athletic Club of Hawaii, Chair, Governor's Sports Task Force.
Okay.
Uh, strange.
Okay, President of the United States, your campaign should be called something like Kadav.
Okay, we read this one before.
Hunter Biden's son, Right?
And it goes, they cannot convict Hunter Biden as the question on the application has no time frame.
User added in the last 10 minutes, decade, life, when?
So any pot user, any moment in life cannot buy a gun.
That solves our gun control problem right there.
No one can.
So this right here, guys, is in response clearly to when Hunter Biden got convicted.
As you guys know, he lied on his ATF form.
Because when you buy a gun, guys, they ask you this question.
Asked you the question, are you a drug user?
Are you under indictment, etc.?
And he said that he wasn't a drug user at the time, which clearly was a lie, because he was a prohibited person.
So if you're a prohibited person, guys, you can't have a gun, can't have a gun, then you violate 18 U.S.C. 922, which basically, right, unlawful acts, right?
So unlawful.
So you can see all the different...
Ways that you are inadmissible.
922.
Okay.
Okay, so under 18.
Violation of state law.
Doesn't reside.
Let me see here.
Control F. Drug.
okay it's 922 g either way you guys know what it is You can't be a drug user and have a gun, right?
So when he purchased the gun, he lied, right?
On the form, the ATF form, this one right here.
ATF form 4473, right?
Firearms transaction record.
And it says right here, See, like these are all the different ones, right?
So when you fill out this form, this is when you purchase a firearm in the United States, right?
This is the ATF form.
Are you under indictment?
Have you ever been convicted in a court of a felony or including a military court?
Are you fugitive from justice?
Are you, here we go, are you an unlawful user of or addicted to marijuana or any depressive stimulant or narcotic drug or any controlled substance?
To this he said no when he really was using drugs.
So, boom, right off that...
He's a prohibited person.
He can't have a firearm.
So that's what this dude is referring to here.
Okay?
He's saying that, look, this isn't descriptive enough, right?
But are you an unlawful user or addicted to a man?
Blah, blah, blah, blah.
But, yeah.
And then, let's see here.
Yeah, this guy's off his rocker, man.
W Myron, Zack Apotheca here, the border patrol agent.
Maybe the chat wants another current feds reaction on the stream before they try to fire me.
Guys this man paid out of pocket for two separate attorneys.
He's one of one.
Great work Myron United States.
Thank you so much, Zach.
I appreciate that.
You didn't have to say that, but yeah, I mean, obviously, as you guys know, I had Zach on the show.
We talked about what's going on in the border.
And after the discussion, I was obviously very fearful for him.
So I said, you know what, dude, we got to get you some representation.
And, you know, I went ahead and I didn't think he was going to put out publicly like that.
But yeah, I paid to get him some lawyers.
Yeah.
Definitely, I want him to be able to protect himself and be in a position where he could defend himself because, I mean, at this point, you know, there's gonna 100% be an internal investigation from CBP Internal Affairs and maybe even OIG or whatever, so I want him to be able to defend himself and be able to be in a position where they don't try to destroy this man's career because all he did was You know, come out and tell the truth.
And there are whistleblower laws out there to protect employees like this.
So he shouldn't lose his job.
I hope he doesn't lose his job.
And, you know, I'm going to do my part to make sure that he has adequate representation to be protected.
Zach, you didn't have to say that, dude.
I didn't want to make that public, but thank you so much for putting it out there.
Yeah, I did cover his lawyers, guys, because that's important.
So he's an American patriot, so I stand by him.
Anyway, thank you so much for that, Zach.
You really didn't have to.
Let's see here.
Okay, so guys, this is what we're going to do.
Come on over to FedReacts.
We're going to do this stream on FedReacts and on...
Let me look here.
I think we're on Fresh and Fit on Rumble.
And I don't think we're on...
I don't think we're live on FedReacts on Rumble, which is fine.
Yeah, we're not.
We're only live on Fresh and Fit.
That's cool.
I don't care.
This is about getting the information out, not necessarily about getting the most views and shit.
So yeah, guys, come on over to...
Come on over to...
I'm going to drop the link for you ninjas right now to FedReacts.
We got 1600 on FedReacts and...
1200 on YouTube, on Fresh and Fit.
So here is the...
Sorry, give me one sec, guys.
I'm just opening this thing real fast for y'all ninjas.
I got so many tabs open right now.
Holy...
Oh, no.
Wrong one.
This is...
Yeah.
So there's the link, guys, for you ninjas.
Jump on in.
That's for FedReacts.
I'm going to go ahead and end the Fresh and Fit one here.
So guys, please come on over.
Please come on over.
We are live on FedReacts.
Come on over.
Drop the link in there.
Thank you, Blackest Panther, for spamming the link in there as well, my friend.
I appreciate that greatly.
And make this switch here.
Alright, come on over, guys.
Alright, so let me go ahead and close the...
We're gonna close the Fresh and Fit stream here on YouTube.
We're gonna stay live on Rumble, Twitch, and YouTube FedReacts channel.
Come on over, guys.
Come on over.
Alright, cool.
So that ends that one.
Sweet, let me close this thing.
Sorry guys, I got a million tabs right now.
We got a lot to talk about, so...
Let's see here.
Just organizing this thing here so I don't get all confused.
All right, I'll read some of these chats.
All right.
Okay, let's see here.
I'll read some of the chats and then we'll get into the law enforcement press release.
Ken Rose, two bucks.
I appreciate that.
We got...
Yeah, dude, here's the thing.
For Castle Club, you have to use Rumble Studio, and I don't really know how to use Rumble Studio yet.
I gotta get Bills to teach me.
So I apologize that we're not live on Castle Club right now.
I'm gonna post this on Castle Club.
Don't worry.
I'll repost this on Castle Club for you ninjas.
That's 100% accountability on me.
I don't know how to use Rumble Studio.
So that's on me.
I gotta figure it out.
So I'm gonna get Bills to teach me.
I apologize for that deeply.
Let's see here.
What else?
Super Chats.
We got here.
Hitman says the guy will commit self-deletion and/or be murdered in prison.
The cameras will be off and the prison guards will fall asleep at the same time.
How much you want to bet?
That's from Hitman.
Okay, we'll see about that, my friend.
Glockchick says what are the odds of Trump being surrounded by inside rats?
They knew his golf schedule, which from my understanding wasn't public knowledge.
Not gonna lie.
But what I will say is the people that are closest to Trump are people that he trusts, that he appointed himself.
I mean, you get to pick the people on your inner circle of your Secret Service staff, which is how they were able to get out, because they basically, the way it worked, guys, was...
Oh, you'll see this more in the press staff.
The Secret Service agents would move forward to what hole he was going to go start shooting at, or putting at, or whatever.
And that's how they encountered this individual, because they got there first.
If I take one hour to cook a batch of mud cookies and sneak out...
Oh, okay.
Alright, bro.
I'm on YouTube.
Hi, Martin.
Ant's advice on masking...
Oh, no.
Okay, you asked that one before, bro.
You gotta type it out better.
No, we're not going to talk about Maduro on this one, guys, because obviously this is breaking news and we're going to cover this.
So yeah.
Let's see here.
All right.
So, let's go ahead and get into...
So, we're looking at some of this guy's tweets.
He's crazy.
Look, he's messaging Elton John.
Can you help with the tribute song for Ukraine to rally more support?
I have lyrics to We Are One that I can send you.
It would be great to get small kids to sing the chorus.
Please help.
Yeah.
Nikki Haley.
Wow.
The same speech and weak at best.
I want serious...
And this is on February 22nd.
I want a serious State of the Union type speech every time.
I do not want trivial bullshit.
I want heartfelt on students killed, Gaza murders, Ukraine whores, Taiwan, China murders, freedom, democracy, and something inspiring.
Please.
Yeah, so this guy likes Nicky Haley, which already tells you he's an idiot.
Seth Rogen, you and James Franco must use your status to meet with Kim Jong-un and show him we are friends and want the best for him and his people.
Dennis Rodman did it, we can.
And he puts in his phone number and thing as if people want to contact him.
So you guys can clearly see here from his tweets, this guy isn't there.
You know, this guy is crazy.
You know, he doesn't even look all the way there in his picture.
Look at this shit.
Come on, man.
Come on, bro.
Look at that smile.
This guy's like the fucking Joker.
Right?
But let's go into the law enforcement meeting that they had.
We're not going to go there, alright?
So keep that in mind.
Alright, I apologize, guys.
I don't know why it's coming out one side.
Let me see here if we can find another one that shows both sides.
This afternoon.
Okay, that's better.
Alright, now it won't come out one side.
I got y'all ninjas, man.
Alright, 1.30 this afternoon.
Call came out, shots fired.
That was called in by the Secret Service.
Because we're in constant contact with them all the time, we were notified of that and we had units here that immediately sealed off the area.
Fortunately, we are able...
Now, this is good.
You guys see the stark contrast here between Butler, Pennsylvania and this area in Florida because obviously the president lives in this area.
He frequents this area.
So Secret Service more than likely already has a point of contact where they call the sheriff's office immediately and they just close the area out, right?
So, and this was probably established years ago, once they really figured out that Trump is going to spend half his time at Mar-a-Lago and Trump is going to spend half his time at the White House, because he would travel back and forth quite a bit.
He's not the easiest protectee, guys.
So, when you have someone like this that's in one area all the time, that obviously is of this importance to the former President of the United States, The Secret Service is going to have a direct line to the Sheriff's Office and they can call them, hey look, something happened.
I need you guys to close the area off, etc.
And yes, the shooter is in custody right now, guys.
We're going to talk about that here in a little bit.
But you can see the big difference here where you're dealing with local law enforcement that you kind of already know and you work with them all the time versus in Butler, Pennsylvania, this is like, you know, you're there doing a rally, you don't really know them like that, etc.
So they close off the area immediately.
To locate a witness that came to us and said, hey, I saw the- And this is the sheriff right here, Palm Beach County Sheriff press conference.
Guy running out of the bushes, he jumped into a black Nissan and I took a picture of the vehicle and the tank, which was great.
So we had that information, our real-time crime center put it out to the license plate readers.
And we were able to get a hit on that vehicle on I-95 as it was headed into Martin County.
We got a hold of Martin County Sheriff's Office, alerted them, and they spotted the vehicle and pulled it over and detained the guy.
After that we took the victim, I'm sorry, the witness that witnessed the incident, He flew him up there and he identified as the person that he saw running out of the bushes and jumped into the car.
Now, in the bushes where this guy was is an AK-47 style rifle with a scope, two backpacks which were hung on the fence that had ceramic.
On YouTube.
Can you guys like the video, please?
Let's get 2,000 likes.
We should be getting 2,000 likes on this easily.
We got, what, 8,000 plus y'all watching between all the different platforms.
So do me a solid, guys, and go ahead and like the video.
And then also open up a tab.
Watch this on Twitch.
Like I said before, we're making a comeback on Twitch.
All right?
So please do that for me as well.
It's pinned at the top.
I'll put it here on Rumble as well for the 6,000 of you guys watching on Rumble.
Just open up a tab and watch...
Watch on there as well.
Tile in him and a GoPro, which he was going to take pictures of.
Dude had a GoPro there.
That's crazy.
So he had ceramic tile and a GoPro.
So those are being processed right now.
The Secret Service agent that was on the course did a fantastic job.
What they do is they have an agent that jumps one hole ahead of time to where the president was at.
And he was able to spot this rifle barrel sticking out of the fence and immediately engage that individual.
Shout out to that Secret Service agent that had the wherewithal to, you know...
Be observant and see the rifle barrel sticking out of the bushes like that.
And that's really smart that they actually advance and go to the next hole that he's going to go and secure the area before.
And just so you guys know, you know, I've done Secret Service details before, etc.
When it comes to the president and then protecting the president, if the president is going to go do a speech or something like that, typically they have assets there weeks ahead of time, right?
I remember, I'll never forget this.
When I was in college, Obama actually came to Northeastern to deliver a speech.
And I saw Secret Service agents there in the Northeastern Police Department running dogs there like a week or two beforehand.
So, you know, that's just what it is.
And obviously with someone like President Trump, they might be even more aware.
But obviously, right, hey, I want to go golfing, etc.
Are you going to have two weeks to say, I'm going to go ahead and check out this hole that you're going to make it to when you're playing golf?
No.
But as he's playing, they can predict, okay, he's going to go to this hole next.
Let's go ahead and go there ahead of time.
Maybe they might have an hour, two hours advance.
They get out there, secure the area, make sure there's no weirdos there, clear it out.
Hey, you're over here golfing, get the fuck out the way.
Presidents are going to be shooting holes here very soon.
And luckily, they were able to do that, and you're going to see any anomalies, right?
And in this case, they saw a barrel sinking out of a bush.
At which time the individual took off.
So that's what we know about the investigation.
We have somebody in custody right now that is a potential suspect.
We got a little bit more work to do on it.
But as we usually do, as soon as we decide that we're going to book him into the county jail and the charges that he's going to be booked into, we'll get those to you and we'll get a picture of him and we'll get you his background.
So, we know who he is.
This was before they released the name, Ryan Ruth.
They have him in custody.
There's a reason why the state and locals picked him up first, and I'll talk about that here in a little bit.
I just want to continue on at the press conference.
So now I'm going to turn it over to the representative of the Secret Service, and he's going to make a brief statement.
Okay, so the guy that just spoke was the sheriff.
Now we got the Secret Service representative.
Let's see.
I'll tell you guys what this guy's rank is more than likely by how he speaks.
Let's see.
Hi, good afternoon everyone.
I first want to thank all of our law enforcement partners to include the Palm Bay Sheriff's Office and the Martin County Sheriff's Office for their involvement today.
Former President Donald Trump is safe.
Okay, he didn't introduce himself.
Interesting.
More than likely, this guy, just by the fact that he's sitting up here with all this brass, he's got to be bare minimum of 14 or 15.
Now you guys are probably wondering, what the fuck are you talking about?
So this is how it works in the federal government, guys, right?
You got the title of special agent, right?
That goes from a GS... No, let's go ahead and have fun with this real quick.
You guys are going to get the most education here.
Nobody comes as close.
GS scale.
2024, right?
We can even do Miami, right?
Because it's going to be the same thing.
So, here you go, right?
My friends, this is the salary table, and you can look this all up.
It's a fucking public record.
For federal employees, right?
And this is the scale that special agents are paid on, right?
Now, when you get on the job, most Secret Service agents, right?
Secret Service entry-level...
They're probably going to get hired as a 7 or a 9, more than likely.
Okay, yeah, so they get paid as a GL 7, right?
So we got the GS scale here, right?
So you start out at the GL level, right?
Which I'll pull this up for you guys real quick.
Because I'm going to explain the difference between GL and GS here in a second.
GL pay scale.
Like the video, by the way.
Somebody gives you guys this freaking type of...
Detail, and we're gonna go ahead with Miami, right?
Because that's what these guys are gonna be on, right?
So, when you get hired, what the hell?
Okay, when you get hired, so a Secret Service agent right on the job, a lot of times, with a bachelor's degree or whatever, you're probably gonna get hired at a seven, right?
Step one, 59177.
However, It's important to note that you get something called law enforcement availability pay, right?
So that stands for LEAP, law enforcement availability pay.
And that goes...
$59,177, right?
That's the salary, $59,177.
However, you get law enforcement availability pay, which is 25% on top of your base salary, all right?
And that's because due to the nature of your work, you work odd hours, you have a take-home car, you have to respond to certain things whenever something happens because you're a criminal investigator.
Remember, as a Secret Service agent, you are still an 1811 special agent criminal investigator job series code, right?
Which is...
1811, job series.
And this, guys, is the job series that ATF, FBI, HSI, DEA, Secret Service, etc., they're all 1811s pretty much, right?
So if you want to be a special agent for the government, this is typically what it is, right?
So all 1811s pretty much get this thing called LEAP, Law Enforcement Availability Pay.
Right?
And that is 25% on top of your salary.
So if I go times 1.25, that is the salary, your starting salary as a Secret Service agent, 73, about 74K, right?
If you're in Southern Florida, right?
About 74,000 entry level, right?
That's typically the bachelor's degree.
If you have a master's degree, sometimes you'll qualify for a nine, right?
Which will put you at 65.
And 65, 996 times 1.25, that's 82K starting, right?
Right?
If you have a master's degree.
Sometimes they'll hire you at a nine if you have a master's or some kind of advanced training or some shit like that or education.
So the reason why I say this, guys, is because I'm trying to establish rank two.
So as a special agent, guys, the highest you can get without being promoted, right, like non-competitive, is called a GS-13 right here, okay?
Okay?
When I left the government, I think I was a GS-13, like, three or four, right?
So I was making about, right around here, 120K or whatever.
Mind you, this was 2020, okay?
So it's less than this.
This is 2024 pay table.
But I was making around 120K, 120, 125K a year.
When I left HSI when I was at GS-13.
So that means that you don't have to become a supervisor.
This is not competitive.
You just stay in, you go from, every agency is different, but typically you get hired as a seven, then you go to a nine, then you go to 11, then you might spend one or two years as an 11, then you go to a 12, then you go to 13.
Typically it's between three to five years for you to get your 13.
Once you get your 13, you've pretty much maxed out where you're not competitive and you don't have to become a supervisor and you can just go up the steps, right?
Now, once you become a supervisory special agent, you're going to hit what's called a 14.
14 is a supervisory special agent.
Then, after a 14, you get promoted to something called, or a supervisory special agent, you become something called an assistant special agent in charge, or ASAC. If you guys watch Breaking Bad, that's Walter White's brother-in-law, Hank.
Hank Schrader, if I'm not mistaken.
He becomes ASAC and he brags about becoming an ASAC. That's what it is.
Assistant Special Agent in Charge, that is a 15.
Okay?
And then some agencies have something called the Deputy Special Agent in Charge.
This typically is a 15 as well, depending on the office size.
I don't want to get too much in the weeds.
But I saw that so you guys understand the ranking, right?
So, more than likely, this individual...
That's giving this press conference.
I'm going to assume he's at least a 15.
He's probably, you know, at bare minimum, he's going to be a group supervisor.
He's going to be a supervisory special agent, which means he's going to have...
And when you're a supervisor, by the way, guys, you have probably 5 to 10 agents that you manage underneath you, right?
So the agents that are the 13s, the guys that aren't in the supervisory role, these are guys that carry cases, okay?
When you carry a case...
You're typically not a supervisor.
The supervisor manages those guys that carry the cases, okay?
And then above the supervisor is the assistant special agent in charge.
He'll manage three to five supervisors, and each of those supervisors manage five to ten guys.
So if you're an assistant special agent in charge, it's very easy for you to be managing somewhere between 20 to 50 special agents, okay?
And then three or four supervisors, all right?
Give me ones in the chat if that makes sense, guys.
Give me ones in the chat if that makes sense.
Give me ones in the chat if that makes sense.
So you guys understand the special agent social hierarchy.
How things work.
So in my estimation, this guy is more than likely a 14 or a 15 if he's here with all the brass giving a press conference.
Because typically, you want your functional equivalent there with you whenever you're giving press conferences or your meetings.
So for example, if I have a meeting with another agency, right, and they're going to have their supervisor there, I'm going to bring my supervisor.
I'm going to bring my 14 with me.
I'm the case agent.
I'm a 13.
And he's going to have his 14 there, his supervisor, I'm going to bring my 14.
If they have their assistant special agent in charge there, they're 15, I'm going to bring my 15.
Does that make sense?
So you typically want brass or chains of command, different chains of command at different agencies to be there.
So a sheriff, right, is going to be the equivalent to like a 15 a lot of the times.
A special agent in charge or a special agent in charge.
So that's why I'm saying this guy more than likely since he's giving a press release and he's talking about this publicly, he's going to be at bare minimum of 15, 14 maybe if they're short staffed.
But more than likely this guy's an assistant special agent in charge is what I'm thinking.
Okay, you guys are giving me ones in here.
Everybody gets it?
Awesome.
And if you don't get it, give me a two and tell me why you don't get it.
Because obviously, as you guys know, I try to be really educational on these podcasts for y'all and go really into detail.
Let's keep going.
...and unharmed following a protective incident shortly before 2 p.m.
on Sunday at Trump International Golf Club at West Palm Beach.
The U.S. Secret Service personnel opened fire on a gunman located near the property line, and this matter is under investigation.
I'll turn it over to my partners over at the FBI. Okay, now you guys are wondering, what the hell?
Why did he say so little?
That's because the FBI is going to run this case, guys.
Secret Service, just so you all know, they have a couple of different investigative authorities.
One is counterfeit currency and financial.
And then they also investigate, you know, threats against the president.
But whenever it's like an assassination attempt like this, etc., that's going to have a lot of press, etc., The FBI is going to take it.
Why is the FBI going to take it?
The FBI is going to take it, guys, because the FBI has the most investigative resources in the federal government.
They're the biggest law enforcement agency, federal law enforcement agency.
They have the most agents.
They have the most capacity to actually do this.
And on top of that, they already have the first case with Matthew Crooks, Right?
So they're going to go ahead and investigate and make sure that this isn't linked to that.
They're going to try to see if there's other conspirators, etc., which we're going to talk about the actual investigation here and how they're going to do it very soon.
But Secret Service job.
We protect the president.
He's fine.
Nothing's wrong with him.
As far as the investigation goes, we're gonna turn it to the FBI, so he's being short and sweet, right?
And obviously the Secret Service has dealt with a lot of fire the past couple months, so I don't blame him for saying, fuck this, I'm not gonna talk that much.
I'm gonna let the FBI handle all the hard questions when it comes to the investigation.
Okay, more than likely, let's take a bet chat.
I haven't seen this press conference yet.
I'm gonna bet that this guy's either A, the special agent in charge, or bare minimum, an assistant special agent in charge.
Let's see.
Good afternoon, everyone.
My name is Jeffrey Veltri.
I'm the special agent in charge of the FBI. I'm too fucking good, baby.
Let's go!
Come on!
What'd I tell y'all, man?
When they have press conferences like this, they're gonna typically have the top brass there to talk about what they're gonna talk about, right?
So, you got the sheriff, you got that guy from the Secret Service.
Probably at 15, now that I know that this guy is the special agent in charge for the FBI, you guys are probably wondering, what's a SAC? Or in this case, the FBI calls it an SAIC. The special agent in charge, guys, is the head of the office.
So in this case, this guy probably is a SAC for Miami.
Let's look him up.
FBI, SAIC, Miami.
Yeah, you can see her already here.
He's showing up four days ago, United States Southern...
Okay, let's go FBI Miami.
So here's FBI Miami, right?
Bruh, I got to fix your website.
It's trash.
Okay, boom.
Here he is.
Jeffrey B. Valtteri.
So here he is.
Right?
He's a sack of Miami.
Right?
And the office is in Miramar.
They switched it.
It's a nice office, actually.
It's really nice.
It's brand new.
They built it a couple years ago.
So, and then they got their own little Twitter and everything else like that.
This is the building here, as you guys can see.
Right?
What the fuck?
Oh yeah.
There it is.
This guy got pinned.
What the hell?
Whatever.
Anyway, let's go back to the press conference.
And you guys are wondering, hold on, wait, why is a Miami special agent in charge all the way up in, you know, in...
West Palm Beach County.
Because the way it works, guys, is the...
So you got the special agent of charge office, right?
The main office, which I just showed you guys, right?
Which is right here, right?
The SAC sits there.
However, there are going to be satellite offices in between, right?
So you're going to have FBI Miami, right?
That's the SAC office that covers it.
But you're going to have FBI West Palm Beach, right?
Right?
Yeah, boom.
There's already a statement on it 54 minutes ago.
The FBI responded to West Palm Beach, Florida, and is investigating what appears to be an attempted assassination attempt.
So, they have offices, guys, all over.
So here, boom.
West Palm Beach.
This is their address, West Palm Beach, right?
So...
They have an office in Miami.
They have an office in Fort Lauderdale.
They have an office in West Palm Beach, et cetera.
And these are called RAC offices or Resident Agent and Charge offices.
Think of them as satellite offices that report to the Special Agent and Charge office, which is in Miami.
So the big field office is in Miami.
Then you got Fort Lauderdale, Fort Myers, West Palm Beach, et cetera.
And if we go ahead and show you guys a map, because some of you guys are not familiar with Florida, Miami map, right?
Right?
So, you got Miami, right?
Here.
Miramar is up...
So, uh, where is it?
Goddammit.
Alright, here's Miramar right here.
Right?
And you guys can see it's not that far from Miami.
So Miami's here.
The field office actually used to be down here in Miami, but they moved it.
So now it's in Miramar, right?
Then they're going to have an office in Fort Lauderdale.
They're going to have an office in, you know, West Palm Beach.
Right?
Right?
They're going to have an office here.
They might have one in Fort Myers.
They have another office in Doral, right?
DEA is over here in Weston, right?
There's some FBI agents there.
So they're going to have offices, satellite offices, all over southern Florida.
But they all report to their SAC office, which is going to be in Miramar, which is technically FBI Miami, okay?
And that's what's called an AOR, error of responsibility.
So they're going to fall under that AOR, And then there's going to be...
The next big field office more than likely is going to probably be FBI Orlando, right?
Which I'm assuming that's probably a SAC office as well, right?
Let me see here.
FBI Orlando.
Let's see.
That's probably...
Oh, no.
Resident agent.
So, no.
That is not the SAC office.
So, let me see here.
Probably Tampa then maybe might be the next SAC office.
Yeah, that's probably the next SAC office in Miami.
me, FBI Tampa.
Yeah, and they cover 18 counties.
So you guys can see, right?
Yeah, so there's a SAC over here.
So yeah, this is probably the next main office.
Then they got like, if you go...
Let's see here.
FBI field offices.
I think there's like 56.
No, offices.
Uh...
Yeah, so boom.
So here we go to Florida, for example.
You got Miami covers these counties.
Then you got the next SAC office is Tampa.
And then the next SAC office is Jacksonville.
So there's three SAC offices in Florida, right, which cover a bunch of different satellite offices.
And you can see here, right, they cover a bunch of different counties.
So here, this is going to fall under the jurisdiction.
Southern Florida is pretty much covered by FBI Miami, right?
Which West Palm Beach is considered.
We have four satellite officers or resident agencies in the area.
Dade and Broward, right?
And then there's, that's where FBI Miami covers.
And then into West Palm Beach, etc.
They're going to have a West Palm Beach.
Resident agent offices.
Does that make sense, guys?
Give me ones in the chat if that makes sense.
So you got a big office, and then underneath the big office, you got the SAC, and then under the SAC, you got the RACs, resident agent and charge offices.
All right, which is probably going to be run by an ASAC typically, or sometimes if they're really small, run by a 14 or a supervisor.
Give me ones if that makes sense, guys.
Awesome, awesome, awesome.
All right.
So now you guys understand how the FBI works, right?
You guys understand the difference between a SAC, RAC, regular agent, etc.
The FBI has assumed the role as the lead federal law enforcement agency in the investigation of the incident.
And we went over why they're going to take over lead obviously with Crooks and obviously for resource purposes and obviously they're the biggest law enforcement agency.
So they're going to go ahead and run the actual criminal investigation into this guy, Ruth.
That occurred earlier today at Trump International Golf Course here in West Palm Beach, Florida.
We've deployed a number of resources, including investigative teams, crisis response team members, bomb technicians, and evidence response team members as well.
What we need right now is for the public to avoid the area around the golf course.
We will continue to support this investigation with the full resources of the FBI. Alongside our partners with the United States Secret Service and the Palm Beach Sheriff's Office as well as Martin County Sheriff's Office and state and local law enforcement.
I would ask that if anyone has any information that may assist with this investigation To contact our tip line at 1-800-CALL-FBI or at tips.fbi.gov.
Thank you.
And as you guys can see, it's a Sunday, right?
So he's obviously showing up and doing this press conference and working on a Sunday, and that goes into what I told you guys before, law enforcement availability pay.
And that's why it's built into your salary.
SACs are paid on a different scale.
They're paid typically on an SES, but that's a whole other conversation.
But the point I'm trying to make here is, since you are expected to work at random times, because there's obviously FBI agents on the scene that are running this investigation, matter of fact, I guarantee you they're probably interviewing this guy, Ruth, right now.
That is where that law enforcement availability pay comes in with the leap that we were discussing earlier.
David?
Hi, I'm Dave Ehrenberg, state attorney for Palm Beach County.
I want to thank you.
Okay, so he is the state attorney for Palm Beach County.
What does that mean?
He is the lead prosecutor for Palm Beach County.
So if there are going to be state charges involved, he's going to be overseeing that.
He's not going to prosecute it himself, but he is basically the head attorney.
And then underneath them are going to be district attorneys or ADAs, assistant district attorneys.
He's the lead attorney for the state side.
Think of him again.
Remember Brass Hour talked about?
Special agent in charge, sheriff, district attorney.
These are the top guys in their respective agencies.
He has assistant district attorneys that work underneath him that are gonna actually prosecute the case.
So he's giving, but that would be only if it were to be done on a state side.
But you can see here that there's state, law enforcement, and federal.
Sheriff Bradshaw and our partners at the local, state, and federal levels.
I'm here because our prosecutors are currently working up warrants and a motion for pretrial detention for the suspect.
Okay.
What does that mean?
They're working up warrants and a motion for pretrial detention, etc.
This is what I predict is going to happen, Chad.
He's going to be arrested on state charges right now just so that they can quickly get him put into jail over the weekend, right?
Kind of let the smoke clear, figure out what the fuck his intention was out there, what he was trying to do, etc.
Figure all that out, right?
Do the investigation, put some state charges on him, right?
And, more than likely, they're gonna write state search warrants for his devices, his phones, his house, et cetera.
State search warrants, guys, are way easier to approve than federal, okay?
Why?
Well, because at the state level, you don't need as much refinement.
I'll say it that way.
You don't need as much refinement and probable cause to get into the devices.
So you can go ahead and get what we call state paper, which is a state search warrant, whether it's for, they're definitely gonna do his house, his devices, et cetera.
And legally get into the devices and then that evidence can be used in a federal case if there is one.
So right now what I predict is the case is a state case at this moment that we're speaking.
However, this guy more than likely is being interviewed by It depends on which agency is going to take this on the state side because there's so many different agencies that could take this.
It could be FDLE, Federal Department of Law Enforcement.
It can be the sheriff's office that takes it.
It can be the...
Well, the FDLE is a component of the state police.
It could be the local police department at West Palm Beach.
So I predict it's more...
To me, it looks like more than likely it's going to be the...
Shaw's office probably, right?
We'll keep listening to the press release.
But regardless, the point is, is there going to be a state entity that's investigating this crime?
And then there's going to be a federal entity.
So more than likely, I bet there's a case agent involved from the FBI that's sitting in on all of these interviews that's participating in the investigation, obviously.
And what they're going to try to do is they're going to...
Try to take this case federally, right?
They're going to be there in interviews, they're going to be asking questions, they're going to be trying to establish probable cause from a federal nexus, etc.
They're probably going to get them on some type of weapons charge or some type of, you know, lower level state charge, right, whatever it may be, just to keep them in jail, write the warrants, get the probable cause, and then see if they can elevate this to a federal level.
In that way, he will be kept in custody.
But our filing of these warrants and charges at the state level does not preclude federal charges that could be coming.
Bro, I don't watch this press conference, but how do I already know?
Come on, guys.
I did not watch this press conference.
I'm watching it for the first time just so you don't like y'all.
In the meantime, it looks like the warrants and the pretrial detention motion will happen first, and again, I want to thank the cooperation we've had with our federal partners and at the local level, and thank you all for being here today.
Okay, we're going to make these pictures available to you.
It'll show you a picture of the backpack and the rifle, and there's also a GoPro on the fence there where he was intent on filming what was going on.
Even though we're going to have to secure a couple areas around the golf course here, the public doesn't need to panic.
We know that we've got a post office, a library, and a school down the street, so we'll make it convenient for you to get to all the places you need to go, get your kids to school, get them over here to the post office or wherever else you need to go.
It's safe.
There's no more danger here and we'll make it very convenient for you.
So having said that, we're going to take a very limited amount of questions and you can direct them to who you want to answer the question.
Sheriff, did this individual make any statements as he was being detained?
He's asking, did this individual make any statements as he was being detained?
Good question.
Did he make any spontaneous utterances?
Guys, if you're being apprehended by law enforcement, you say something right before they Mirandize you.
Remember, when you're being arrested, They have to read you your rights before they ask you any questions that can incriminate you, right?
You have the right to remain silent.
Anything you say could be used against you in a court of law.
You know, if you can't afford an attorney, it won't be appointed for you, blah, blah, blah.
Every agent has a different, you know, make on that.
However, if you make what's called a spontaneous utterance as you're being apprehended, etc., that will be admissible.
So the reporter here is asking, hey, did he make any comments as he was being arrested?
No statement right now as far as his involvement in the incident and the further investigation to be completed.
Okay, that tells me there's a good chance that he might have lawyered up, which if he lawyers up and he says, no, I don't want to talk to y'all, I want to lawyer, that means, my friends, that the questioning is done.
Yeah, I'm not sure if maybe the State Service gentleman answered.
I misunderstood, or I couldn't understand.
So there was a rifle.
So one of your agents saw, on the golf course, saw a rifle pointing through a fence.
Was it a changing?
Okay.
So he saw that?
The agent?
That is correct, yes.
And the president or before president was on the course behind him?
How close?
It was one or two holes behind.
100 seconds.
Because the bubble moves through the golf course.
So our agents will get there first, clear it.
And like I said before, so they get there before, clear it, make sure it's good to go.
And then they let him come and golf.
Thank you.
Is that the rifle was pointing out, our agents engaged.
We are not sure right now if the individual was able to take a shot at our agents, but for sure our agents were able to engage with the soldier.
How far away was the president, how far away was Donald Trump when this gentleman was caught and stopped?
Probably between 3 and 500 yards.
Alright, so 3 to 500 yards, that's, you know, make it simple for you guys, 3 to 5 football fields away.
So, good distance away.
I mean, the weapon that he used might have not been the best.
And the way he had it propped up, obviously that tells that this guy didn't have that much training.
But, you know, he wanted his viral moment.
He had a GoPro there.
But with a rifle and a scope like that, that's not a long distance.
Yeah, but he can definitely hit that shot with that weapon and that scope.
Not the best gun.
Nayar would have been probably better, but you know, yeah.
For the Secret Service, how far was your agent from the would-be assailant?
That I'm not sure right now.
We're still looking into it.
With a rifle and a scope like that, that's not a long distance.
For the Secret Service, how far was your agent from the would-be assailant?
Okay, they asked how far was the Secret Service agent from the would-be assailant?
I'm not sure right now.
We're still looking into it.
As far as the four rounds of ammunition were fired, were all four of those from your agent?
That is correct.
They asked how approximately four shots were shot.
Were they all shot by your agent?
Six.
We're not sure yet.
Was there a long distance?
Four to six, they're saying.
Yes, yes.
Yes, ma'am.
And obviously, Secret Service is going to be on edge, right?
Obviously, they tried to kill Trump literally like two months ago, so they're going to shoot first and ask questions later, man.
I didn't hear a whole lot.
Say that one more time and talk up a little bit.
So, how is this able to happen?
And for future reference, is there any other security of the golf course?
Well, you got to understand the golf course is surrounded by shrubbery.
So, when somebody gets into the shrubbery, they're pretty much out of sight.
And at this level that he is at right now, he's not the city president.
If he was, we would have had to hire a golf course surrounded.
Well, because he's not, the security is limited to the areas that the Secret Service deems possible.
So, I would imagine that the next time he comes at a golf course, there'll probably be a little bit more people around the perimeter, but the Secret Service did exactly what they should have done.
They provided exactly what the protection should have been, and their agent did a fantastic job.
Which direction was the stroke?
Where he went north-south, or east-west and south of the road?
The layout of the golf course, you've got three holes, five, six, and seven.
One of them runs parallel to Summit Boulevard.
One of them runs parallel to Congress.
And he was in an area in the shrubbery where he could see both holes.
So the president was another hole back, which means he's about between 400 and 500 yards away.
So he was on the golf course?
Oh, he's on the golf course, yeah.
But he's back aways.
For the Secret Service, have you guys changed at all the way that you guys are protecting or repressing Donald Trump?
There's now a potential second attempt on him.
Can you just elaborate on how things have changed?
All right, he's asking if they've changed the way they protect the president.
Have things changed, if you can elaborate.
What you make of all this?
Yes, the threat level is high.
We have increased the amount of assets that we've supported.
So we are...
We live in danger times, so yes.
We're done with questions right now.
There's really nothing more for us to add.
I just want to tell you, the Secret Service and the FBI and the State Attorney's Office have been fantastic to work with.
And I can tell you right now, our agency, with this real-time crime center, was fabulous.
That's how we got the guy.
We started out with, we don't know anything, to where we had a tag, we had a vehicle description, and we got an area where we saw the person.
So be proud of your law enforcement.
Alright, thanks folks, we'll get back to you.
Alright, so let's go ahead and see what else is going right now.
Let's see if the New York Post updated anything here.
Nope.
We'll go ahead and go.
We are coming on the air with breaking news about former President Donald Trump, who is safe according to his campaign, as the FBI says it is investigating what appears to be an attempted assassination, in their words, of former President Trump.
Four senior law enforcement officials tell NBC News Secret Service fired in the direction of a person with a gun just outside Mr.
Trump's golf course in South Florida today and that they recovered an AR-style rifle.
They say one person is in custody tonight.
Want to show you, we're about to hear an update from officials there in Palm Beach County in Florida.
It looks like that news conference is going to begin any second.
And as it does, I want to bring in our correspondent, Tom Winter, who's been following this.
Bring us up to speed on what we know and, Tom, importantly, what we don't know, because there's still some real big questions here, too.
Big questions here, Hallie, as far as the sequence of events, but as best we can figure it out, when the former president or any president is on a golf course and what's called an off-the-record event, in other words, they don't tell us about it ahead of time, it's not publicized, what the Secret Service does is they fan out agents behind the president or their protectee or in front.
The agents that were in front, several holes ahead of Trump, were told spot an individual along the tree line or in the bushes Outside of the property, the golf property, where Trump was playing golf.
They see him.
It's not clear whether he was aiming at the former president, whether he was aiming at the Secret Service agents or something else, but they see clearly, according to them and the law enforcement officials we've been speaking to, they see that this individual is armed.
They fire upon that individual.
He flees, dropping the weapon, and then is pursued by local law enforcement who has the license plate and has the details and the information To make that pursuit, they take that person into custody.
The Secret Service and law enforcement fined an assault-style rifle, a semi-automatic rifle, in the bushes there, and perhaps some other items as well.
That's something we're still trying to figure out.
So it does appear to bottom line it, Hallie, that an armed individual with a semi-automatic rifle was outside of the property where Donald Trump was playing golf this afternoon, and the Secret Service engaged with that individual in gunfire.
The question is whether or not that person fired upon the Secret Service or fired upon Trump prior to the Secret Service engaging.
There's a lot of conflicting information, as you might imagine, Hallie, at this stage of the investigation.
But that's something that we're trying to figure out, as well as who this individual is and what their specific motive might be.
But the statement from the FBI, as just put in by our colleague Ken Delanian, is abundantly clear.
They view this as yet another attempted assassination attempt on Donald Trump.
Coming just about two months, of course, after that first attempted assassination against the former president in Butler, Pennsylvania.
Now, the suspect was caught basically up I-95, so north of Palm Beach County in a different county.
And the sheriff there says when taken into custody, the suspect appeared relatively calm in demeanor.
Do we know anything else about where this investigation goes from here, Tom?
Because as you point out, the big question I think remaining is, did this person get a shot off, essentially, on former President Trump, on the Secret Service, etc.?
Right.
And all indications are here, Hallie, given the fact that these agents were several holes away from Donald Trump, that if he was firing upon them, believing that the president was part of this group, well, then likely he was far, far away from where Trump was.
We should note that no shots or rounds are believed to have been found near Trump at all.
He was immediately taken to safety by the Secret Service.
And just so you guys know, we'll be doing a Zoom call with our Cast Club members after this stream.
So just, you know, castclub.tv, guys, make sure you enroll.
Because we're going to definitely do a Zoom call with you ninjas after the fact.
So jump on in.
CastClub.tv.
I see ElevatorSniper says, sorry to interrupt the stream, but I changed my credit card info.
CastClub now is trying to charge $35.
Yeah, bro.
I mean, if you didn't get Grandfather in at that price point that we had before, You're going to have to pay the newer price, which obviously is really cheap to get the access that you guys get.
We're going to do another Zoom call, by the way, tomorrow.
We have David Green for BiggerPockets on.
So, yeah, man, that's kind of one of the unfortunate things, unless we do another sale.
So, but yeah.
This dude said he can't hear anything.
Don't know what's up with the volume.
Chat, is the volume good for y'all?
Give me ones if the volume's good for you guys.
I think some of you guys just have sucky-ass phones.
That's just what it comes down to.
Some of you guys have sucky headphones and or sucky phones, bro.
Yeah, sounds good.
All right, bro, it's just you, man.
Some of y'all will be trolling, man.
He has since departed that location.
And so right now, all we know is that if this individual did fire, they were probably too far away for certain to be able to hit Trump, if even they'd be able to get an accurate shot off from that distance.
So that's, again, all part of the investigation, all part of what's going on.
And one thing I can tell you, there are serious discussions at this hour about the ongoing safety of our political candidates and their families in this country, because as you just pointed out, we're within two assassination attempts here within the last- Real quick, I want to bring this to your guys' attention.
This is the guy right here.
This is...
I got this off Twitter.
Why are you here?
This is the guy here, this crazy bastard.
I'm 56, from the U.S., from North Carolina originally, so I live in Hawaii now.
Look at that, half his hair is purple and half...
Come on, man.
...all the way from Hawaii here, so the question as far as why am I... Looks like he's in Romania.
...here.
To me, you know, a lot of the other conflicts are gray, but this conflict is definitely black and white.
This is about good versus evil.
This is a storybook.
You know, any movie we've ever watched, this is definitely evil against good.
I mean, we're battling a situation here where, you know, the Ukrainians and the rest of the world are caring and kind and generous and unselfish and take care of one another.
And it's just a matter of, you know, we need to stand up for that.
That is the The most important thing in the world is just to show human beings that we're kind and we're caring and that we take care of one another and that the world is united so that we feed each other and make sure that we all move forward as one collective whole unit.
So we feel the pain of one country's failure and their conflicts and we enjoy the successes of other countries that are doing good and we all work together and for some reason Russia We're all one unit and we have to get along and work together and be normal human beings.
This is 2022.
We have to work together.
It seems asinine that we have a leader in a country that does not understand the concept of being unselfish What are you doing here in Ukraine?
My initial goal was to come and fight.
I think, you know, everybody around the globe should be motivated to come here and support the Ukrainians and support the army no matter.
All right, so he's in Ukraine.
This is reported by Romania, Newsweek Romania.
But I guess so this is probably right after this is probably for 2022.
I'm assuming this interview.
What gender, age, anything, everybody should be here.
Supporting the army but I'm 56 so initially they're like well I have no military experience so they're like you're not an ideal candidate so they said not right this minute so plan b they'll take his ass right now though they've been losing bodies left and right man he was to come here to kiev and promote getting more people here you know we need thousands and thousands and thousands of people here fighting with the ukrainians we need we need you know Guys, do me a favor.
We got only 1.1k likes.
We got 2,600 of y'all watching on YouTube and another 6,400 or so on Rumble.
Guys, do me a favor.
Like the video, man.
Let's hit...
Let's hit 2,000 likes on YouTube, please.
Get this thing up.
And then what I'm thinking, guys, is we might switch to Twitch only here after we complete going through some of this breakdown.
Like I said, we're trying to build up the Twitch.
We're moving away from streaming on YouTube.
It's going to be Rumble and Twitch only, ninjas.
Twitch and Rumble only.
That will be the platforms.
So, yeah.
We've got 190 countries around the world, and we need thousands from all of them.
If the governments will not send their official military, then we civilians have to pick up the torch and make this thing happen.
And we've gotten some wonderful people here, but it's a small fraction of the number that should be here.
If we have 5,000 to 10,000.
That is just a miniscule amount of the 5 billion people on the globe.
We need everyone here fighting.
That's why I'm in key.
Every project that I promote is about getting people here to support the Ukrainians.
We're at a critical juncture in this war where we are sitting on the fence as far as whether good or evil is going to win.
Right now we're looking at a situation where the world is waning and it's And we're at a point where, you know, alright, are we going to stand for humanity?
For human rights?
For everything that is good with the world?
Or are we just going to ignore it?
If everybody is complacent and doesn't join this...
Guys, I'm not on FedReacts on Twitch.
It's Fresh and Fit on Twitch.
I dropped the link.
It's pinned at the top of the YouTube chat.
So go ahead and open up another tab and watch on Twitch.
Like I said before, we're trying to grow the Twitch up.
We're tired of streaming on YouTube.
Because we're demonetized on there, and quite frankly, it doesn't make sense for us to stream on YouTube anymore.
We just post clips on YouTube.
So, we're gonna be streaming only on Rumble and Twitch.
As you guys know, Rumble is still the home base.
Don't get it twisted.
Rumble is still the home base.
But, you know, we're gonna be streaming.
Our normie platform is gonna be Twitch, right?
Which I think we could totally take over.
I'm looking at some people here that stream on Twitch, and I'm like, bro, we make better content than all these dudes.
What the hell?
So, yeah.
We're gonna take over Twitch.
Then guess who's going to win?
It might take 10 years, but we're going to lose this battle if everyone around the globe does not stop.
The channel got suspended, but we appealed it and got it back.
So shout out to Twitch for that, man.
They're doing get off the couch and come to Ukraine and defend the human rights of everyone around the globe.
This is the most important thing going on in the world today.
So, sitting around and letting life go on as normal and complaining about gas prices and complaining about You know, your luxury life and whatever.
That's one thing he is right about.
I've talked about this before.
The conflict in Ukraine, guys, absolutely increased the gas prices, increased the food prices, which the Democrats never admit for obvious reasons because they allowed the conflict to happen in the first place.
But your food price and everything else like that absolutely was...
Stimulated by this conflict.
Because Ukraine is the breadbasket of Europe, guys.
So if there's bread issues and food shortages in Europe, that's going to have everlasting effects on the rest of the world.
The world is interconnected now more than ever before.
Global trade is very real.
So if we have a supply chain issue on the other side of the world, it is going to affect us and affect our price points with our food and our resources and our commodities over here.
That's the one thing that this idiot said that's correct.
But yeah, he's yapping though.
Our country we live in is unacceptable.
As human beings, we must support each other.
We cannot turn our backs on anyone around the world and expect the problem to go away.
So I've been dealing with Russia for my entire life, you know.
We had one period where it was okay, but now we've let it slip back into terrorism.
So it's just, the world needs to respond, you know.
Why world leaders are not sending military is beyond me.
We're going to have to elect new leaders the next go-around that have a backbone and that have the fortitude to say, hey, we're not going to tolerate this type of behavior.
This type of behavior is unacceptable anywhere, anywhere, anyplace.
I know some of you guys are saying that the Rumble stream is freezing.
Come on over to Twitch, guys.
Twitch has a really good latency.
Watch it on Twitch.
So come on over.
We got 400 plus y'all on Twitch.
So let's get 2,000 on Twitch, man.
Let's get the front page.
Come on.
I'm keeping it clean because this is FedReacts.
I'm not going to be going crazy anyway, so might as well.
It's totally unacceptable.
And why people are not responding, I do not know.
Watch on Twitch and or on Rumble, guys.
We're on YouTube too, but I'm going to end the YouTube stream here soon.
What impressed you the most since you are here?
My trip to Irpin was pretty emotional.
So, you know, going and seeing the buildings that were burned and destroyed and things of that nature.
I think more emotional for me also is just talking to the guys that have come here.
Yeah, so you guys can see that this dude is emotionally erratic.
Now he's getting into a tirade about, you know, the right thing to do when he's crying and stuff.
This dude's a little bit off his rocker.
Let's read some of these chats here.
We got, um...
Which they piled up.
Sorry about that, guys.
We got, um...
Uncle Luke says, Martin, what the hell is going on with this country?
I'm not surprised.
I'm starting to believe the Dems are part of this.
They know he's going to win, so they're trying to kill him political violence.
Yeah, it's crazy.
Here, Martin, I know you're staying out of it, but what do you think about the beef that is going on with Andrew Tate and Sneeko?
I don't know what's going on over there, man.
To be honest, I don't know enough.
I haven't really paid attention to it so far.
I've just been focusing on this thing right now, guys.
Obviously, I'm friends with both.
Both are great guys, so...
But I don't know what's going on at this very moment.
Tops, did you see Jay?
Says, been a while, big guy.
Hope you are doing well.
Take care.
Thank you, Jay.
And a hundred bucks...
The Sasa was in a Gideon video.
Really?
Okay?
Myron is back.
So, yo, Myron, my sneaky link was voting for Kamala until I used all your points on why Trump is a better picture, changed your mind, and was just registered to Republican W. Myron to keep converting these 304s.
Good stuff, bro.
Yeah, you got to wake them up, man.
A lot of people are dumb.
So, okay, so the person that tried to assassinate Trump was in one of Gideon's old videos.
Okay, it looks like I can see him right here.
Let's go ahead and play this clip for you, ninjas, real fast.
How better are you?
Bro, I started in Newtown.
Well, I think it's better to serve and fight in the powers.
Fucking over the system.
Bro, give me a Glock and a Hellcat.
Take a look at that.
Bro, but I don't do paper, though.
I just told you that.
Come on, dude.
Then get away.
I don't do paper, though.
I don't care if you do paper or not.
I'm looking for revolutionaries.
Whatever people want to take this whole system down.
Bro, I'm a veteran.
Like, do you need me?
What kind of veteran are you?
Bro, I served in Nuketown.
Well, I think it's better to serve and fight in the powers fucking over the system.
Bro, give me a Glock and a Hellcat.
Take a look at that!
Yeah, this guy's clearly off his rocker.
So here, let's get into this.
That is heroism.
You know, he's coming here to risk his life for humanity, for the Ukrainians.
You know, guys that sell everything they own to come here and support the Ukrainians while others sit at home and do nothing.
You know, it's totally mind-blowing.
Well, looks like we got a hype train incoming.
Guys, come on over to Twitch.
We got a hype train going.
Let's go.
Let's get cooking.
Alright?
How we have this divide of people that are selfless and courageous and wonderful and willing to sell everything they own to come here and support, you know, keep people from getting killed, to shelter kids and protect you.
Hype Train incoming on Switch, guys.
Open up a Twitch tab.
Let's get this thing cooking.
...
Ukrainians and others that just, you know, want to sit at home and not.
It's just, it, you know, it's an indictment of our entire human society to say, hey, you know, where do we stand?
Do we stand for good?
Or do we just not care?
Does the world not care?
That's the feeling that I wrestle with every day.
Every day in my interactions with everybody.
Every one of us is responsible for the outcome of this war.
Every one of us.
You know, by our actions and what we do.
And, you know, when I call back home and say, hey, I need five bucks so I can, you know, put some money together to get a vest for Ukrainian and I get no response.
I'm like, I'm not sure that the world is as wonderful as I once thought.
Hey, shout out to Twitch.
They're in here as well.
Shout out to you, Twitch.
You're in here watching.
So shout out to you guys, man.
It was.
I had thought that everyone would respond, you know, very generously and unselfishly.
And you guys can see here that this dude's off his rocker a bit.
You know, he's trying to get five bucks for a vest or whatever.
So he probably doesn't.
He's not probably not financially stable like that.
And we're level two hype train, by the way, guys, officially.
And, you know, you don't have to come.
But, you know, if I ask for five dollars to buy a vest to save a Ukrainian life, It seems like that would be a no-brainer, but I increasingly get more disappointed in humanity, and I'm beginning to question whether or not we're going to end up on the right side of this equation.
So you are working with an international legend?
Yes.
And you are trying to convince people to help, to donate, and to join?
Oh, we're on the front page of Twitch?
Alright, let's go, baby!
We're actually giving you guys some great content over here.
We're reacting to, you know, more political stuff.
I know that Twitch doesn't have as many right-wing political commentators, but I'm here!
All right?
I am here.
So, you know, obviously, the battle of ideas is an important thing to uphold in the United States.
So let's go, man.
Front page of Twitch, we out here, man.
Yeah, yeah.
My final question is, what would you say to the people in order to convince them to join the International Legion or to donate for it or to be involved in the humanitarian aid to Ukraine?
Right, right.
It's just extremely important, the whole thing.
As far as joining the military, you know, yes, if you have some military experience or know people with military experience, encouraging them to come and fight.
We have units all over the place.
So, you know, there were some leadership issues initially, but we've got so many units available to us, Georgian, Crimean, Ukrainian, territorial defense, foreign legion.
We have, you know, so many paramilitary groups.
I can put a 74-year-old Japanese guy in a unit.
So, you know, we have girls in units.
So we have two girls that are in the unit up the street.
So any gender, any age, any skill level to no skill level.
But yeah, if you want to fight, come here and see me, and I'll put you in a unit so you can go fight.
Regardless of that, we should have thousands upon thousands of people standing here with the Ukrainians.
This maiden square, independent square, we should have millions of people in this square, filling this square from every country around the world.
And why we don't?
I don't understand.
I'm here every day with all the flags from all the supporting countries, with the memorials for the people that have died, and, you know, I've had several people come But just a handful, you know.
So it blows my mind that I'm standing here alone without thousands of people from every country, from Asia, from Africa, from Australia, from Canada, from everywhere in South America, every place.
Europe.
Yeah, Europe, everywhere.
We need everybody here.
You know, if you have no skills, just come.
You know, we need to be cheerleaders.
Just being here and saying, hey, I support I support the Ukrainians and I support human rights and I support good and generosity and caring and kindness and altruism.
We need to show the world that we care.
It's essential.
If you don't do any work at all, just being here and supporting and showing them that we care for our fellow human beings.
We're a level 3 hype train.
By the way, guys, after this guy's done yapping, we're going to switch on over to Twitch on YouTube.
I'm going to bring all my YouTube people over to Twitch.
We're going to finish the stream over there.
The most important thing we can do.
So guys, we're going to react to this because obviously this guy is a little bit off his rocker.
Actually, he's quite a bit off his rocker.
That's not even a question.
Guys, come on over.
I'm going to drop my Twitch thing.
We got a hype train right now.
We're on level...
I think we just completed level three of the hype train.
So come on over, guys.
Twitch stream is on top.
The link is on top of the FedReacts channel.
Come on over, guys.
Like I said before, man, we're demonetized on YouTube, so it is what it is.
We're Twitch gang and Rumble gang only now.
So come on over, guys.
If you don't have Twitch, download it on your phone.
Link is there.
Come on over.
We're building up a community over there.
So come on over, guys, to Twitch right now.
I'm going to end the stream in a second on YouTube.
So I'm going to drop the link for you ninjas.
Come on over.
Twitch.tv slash Fresh and Fit Podcasts.
Come on over.
We got...
How many people?
We got 600 plus on Twitch.
Like 6K on Rumble.
So let's get to 1,000 on Twitch, man.
Let's get to 1,000 live viewers on Twitch, man.
Let's do it.
Drop the link in there for you guys.
Come on over.
Come on over.
I'm going to end the YouTube stream here.
YouTube stream is ending in 3, 2, 1.
Come on over to Twitch, guys.
Come on over to Twitch.
And we are live on Twitch, X. Honestly, for you guys that are watching on X as well, I'm going to tell y'all.
I'm going to drop the Twitch link for you guys as well.
Let me open up.
I want you guys to come on over to X.
All you guys watching on X.
Let me get out of here.
Come watch on Twitch.
Still live.
Boom.
Come on over guys.
I'm going to end the Twitch stream as well.
What we might do is I'm going to jump in a space with Suleiman and them.
Alright, we ended it on switch.
They got a space going right now.
I'll join in.
But before I do, let's make sure we are up to date with all the news.
Okay, so for some of you guys that just joined, let's go ahead.
We got a hype train going right now as well.
Shout out to all you ninjas.
Quick little rewind of what's going on before I go and jump into this space.
For those of you guys that just joined the stream, if it's your first time here, welcome.
Happy to have you here.
Basically, guys, we have...
We got seven climbing, almost a thousand of you guys watching on Twitch right now.
So basically, guys, what happened was we had a couple hours ago, I think around 1.30 p.m., we had Secret Service encountered an individual while Trump was golfing with something that appeared to be an AK-47 with a scope and a GoPro and some, you know, Armor type shit, some tiles.
And what ended up happening was they shot at him.
They fired somewhere between four to six shots.
The individual ran.
They were able to apprehend him in a traffic stop a few miles up north.
He's currently in custody.
The state and the FBI are investigating the case.
They're looking to put state charges on him now.
I predict that they're going to probably put some, you know, state charges maybe for firearm possession or whatever it may be, attempted murder, whatever it is.
And they have some state search warrants that they're going to be trying to execute.
While they do that, they're going to go ahead and elevate this to a federal case, is what I predict.
They're probably on the phone right now with the United States Attorney's Office out of West Palm Beach, trying to do a federal case.
But in the meantime, they're going to keep him in custody at the state level, so they can go ahead and build probable cause up for a federal case.
That's what I predict is going to happen.
The dude's name is Ryan Ralph.
We have his...
Obviously his Twitter here.
The guy...
Oh, his account already got suspended.
Wow!
Holy!
Looks like Elon Musk doesn't like the guy.
They suspended his account.
So his account violates the X rules.
Alright?
So we can't even see it anymore.
Which kind of sucks.
But it is what it is.
He's gone.
But we did obviously get some of it on stream.
I showed you guys some of his tweets from before.
So the guy's clearly not all there.
Um...
For obvious reasons.
So, it is what it is.
Yeah.
Holy.
Alright, and we got the hype train still going?
It looks like.
We completed the hype train at four.
However, So, shout out to all you guys here that are joining us on Twitch.
Shout out to all you guys.
Like I said before, we're rebuilding.
We are rebuilding on Twitch, my friends, and Rumble.
So let's go ahead, man.
We can jump in this Twitter space real quick.
And which account am I on?
Am I on the right account?
Actually, I got to do this on Firefox.
Give me one second, guys.
guys I'm going to join in.
Unmute the tab for you ninjas.
Would be to frame it in the media using contacts in the media.
And we all know there's foreign influence in our media.
There's story placement that happens, you know, to frame a narrative.
And I mean, that's just a given.
So I wasn't trying to say that.
All right.
While they yap, I'm going to...
Oh, they invited me as co-host.
Okay.
So this is Suleiman Space right now, by the way, guys that weren't here.
Now seeing the reports, and they seem to be conflicting, so I'm confused about what's actually happened.
Have they said if it was actually an attempted assassination, or is it two people that were shooting at each other in the vicinity?
Because I saw something that said two people were shooting at each other in the vicinity.
Yeah, that was reported earlier, anti-socialite, but that wasn't accurate.
It was an actual, attempted assassination.
Oh, okay.
Alright, thank you for clearing that up.
I wasn't really sure when I came into the space what the outcome was, since I hadn't seen anything new.
No problem, no problem.
I did give an overview at the beginning of the various reporting information.
If you do get a chance once we end the space, do jump back in at the beginning and you'll be able to see that.
Just want to welcome Myron onto the space.
Myron, I know you've done a long space on this.
We know the Secret Service managed to take him out before he was able to fire any shots off.
If you can give everyone a nice perspective based on your background as a fed.
Yeah, sure.
So right now I'm actually live on Twitch and Rumble talking about this, so I can definitely give a quick little recap for everybody.
And for those that are unaware, this isn't my main account.
It's Unplugged Fidex, but I got banned off of spaces, so it is what it is.
I used to be a specialist with Homeland Security Investigations, done all types of different investigations, whether violent crime, drug trafficking, human smuggling, human trafficking, etc., So, definitely would be happy to weigh in on this and give you guys what's going on.
So, long story short, Trump was golfing, Secret Service, as, you know, normal when they're conducting protection.
They had kind of a protection bubble around Trump, and then every hole that he was moving towards, they'd have agents go there and clear beforehand.
While there, an agent encountered what appeared to be the barrel of an AK-47 type weapon with an We're good to go.
He ran, got in a vehicle, drove miles away, but the police were able to apprehend, enclose the area, apprehend him, and now he's in custody right now as we speak.
I watched the press release, and it seems like FBI is going to be taking the lead on the federal side, and then the state is also conducting an investigation because the district attorney for the area was there speaking.
You know, and I kind of gave my insight on this.
What I predict is going to happen is right now he's being held on state charges, and they're also trying to get warrants.
Those warrants are more than likely going to be for his phone, his tablets, home, et cetera, car.
Everything is going to be searched.
They're probably going to write state search warrants on him because they're much quicker to get and efficient.
And it's always easier to go through the state to get search warrants than the feds.
The FBI is there responding.
So what I assume is basically there's a state investigator, probably the sheriff's office.
A detective is running that case.
And then there's an FBI agent alongside him working together.
And what they're trying to do is obviously they're building their state case while simultaneously trying to build a federal case.
I predict that there's going to be either, not an indictment because it's going to take a few weeks for an indictment to fall, but there's probably going to be a criminal complaint filed within the next...
48 to 72 hours from the federal side if they can elevate this case to a federal case, which, you know, I think that they're going to aim to do here.
The individual, I don't know if he's made statements yet.
When I saw the press release, he didn't make any spontaneous utterances when he was arrested.
They obviously have him in custody.
I guarantee he's probably the sheriff's deputy detective and an FBI agent that was questioning him.
Maybe even a Secret Service agent was there as well.
But we don't know what's going on so far.
But I predict that there's going to be federal charges announced within 72 hours or so because they're going to want to get this guy because they obviously missed with Crooks.
Obviously, the public is not happy about that.
To this day, we still don't know what the intention was because he was killed.
We couldn't question him.
But with this guy, they're going to try to make an example of him, is my estimation from the federal perspective.
So definitely, I watched a couple of his videos.
I watched a video of his and I saw some of his tweets.
The guy doesn't seem to be all there.
So, you know, he's obviously a Democrat, Nikki Haley supporter, Vivek Ramaswamy as well.
He's pro-Ukraine, which, you know, kind of makes sense because Trump did vow to end the Russian-Ukraine war as soon as he came into office, which, you know, he didn't want to admit it during the debates, but we know more than likely what's going to happen, and J.D. Vance already alluded to this, was Trump's going to just forfeit the territory that Putin currently has in his possession, which is roughly around 20% of Ukraine, and, you know, promised to not allow NATO expansion and kind of let Russia have what they got.
And I think that will probably end the conflict.
And, you know, people that are supportive of Ukraine don't want that.
But I think that's probably the best and most efficient way to end this war immediately.
But yeah, that's kind of the general gist of it.
If anyone has any questions, some more specific stuff, I'd be happy to answer.
But yeah.
Hey, Myron, really quick, Myron, what do you think would happen if there was some kind of SVU involvement or they have like a link to a foreign intelligence service I know you might not have a solid answer, but I'd love to hear your opinion.
That's a good question.
We know that this individual traveled to Ukraine at the onset of the war, gave an interview with European News, and he talked about it.
I actually just watched a 10-minute video on it.
Censored Man actually posted it.
Shout out to him on Twitter.
I watched it.
Obviously, the guy has, like, dyed hair and stuff like that.
I don't think he's all mentally there.
But...
Yeah, there's absolutely a chance that he had some SVU involvement because he was trying to gather soldiers to fight in the conflict.
So I wouldn't be surprised if FBI counterintelligence isn't being involved in this situation to figure out what this guy's agenda was.
But yeah, I wouldn't be surprised.
Yeah, they've got to have some kind of warrant on his contacts because he was doing recruitment, and that definitely means he was working with the SBU or at least some kind of detachment from it.
I mean, it's very striking how all these people are pro-Ukraine, and I don't think it's Ukraine necessarily, but it's just very interesting, and there's a lot there to look at.
Yeah, no, I mean, it definitely raises questions.
I guarantee you there's probably someone from...
So the FBI, the way the FBI works, guys, is they have squads, right?
And in their squads, they have different groups of agents that focus on different types of crimes.
Big field offices like Miami is probably going to have a, you know, Russian organized crime group, a Chinese organized crime group, counterintelligence, etc.
I wouldn't be surprised if they don't have, you know...
Some type of counterintelligence agent there at the interviews with this individual because we do know that he has some foreign ties.
So yeah, I mean, definitely not out of the question.
We have got a statement from Biden.
Let me just read that out to you.
It is breaking news.
And he said, quote, I have been briefed by my team regarding what federal law enforcement is investigating as a possible assassination attempt of former President Trump today.
A suspect is in custody and I commend the work of the Secret Service and their law enforcement partners for their vigilance and efforts to keep the former president and those around him safe.
I am relieved that the former president is unharmed.
There is an active investigation into this incident as law enforcement gathers more details about what happened.
As I've said many times, there is no place for political violence or any violence ever in our country and I have directed my team to continue to ensure that the Secret Service has every resource, capability and protective measure necessary to ensure the former president's continued safety.
We also had Orion on earlier who basically said that we had inside information that he was golfing with Steve Wyckoff who is a Jewish billionaire who acted as the middleman between Israeli billionaire Eten Wertheimer and the New York Police Commissioner Myron,
a question to you.
Is that assessment right in terms of if he's golfing as per normal, that there wouldn't be many people aware of his location?
And it would require a leak or do you think there would be a contact from a security service detail perspective?
Yeah, that is a little alarming because typically the people that are going to have a schedule are the people in the Secret Service detail that are the closest to him.
You know, and obviously with someone like Trump, I do want to, you know, We're good to go.
You know, protecting the president of Congo.
And that was a headache.
So I can only imagine protecting someone like a Donald Trump who has a lot of enemies, who obviously people don't like him.
He's extremely divisive.
He has these court dates in different states at different times.
He's traveling all over the place.
He has two different residences.
When he was president, he had the White House and he had Mar-a-Lago.
Then obviously he has Leo Minister in New Jersey.
The fact that this agent was able to, you know, get out there ahead and stop this individual before he got to that hole is great.
But for them to have this information ahead of time, yeah, I mean, that leak is very...
That would probably be sensitive and the people closest to him would only know that.
So that definitely...
It's going to be something that the FBI and the local authorities are going to have to hash out and figure out how the hell did this guy know?
That's probably the top of the question for them is how did you know to be there at that time?
Where'd you get this information?
That's going to be very important.
And honestly, if I was a criminal, right, let me go ahead and put on devil's advocate here.
If I was a crook, I would say, look, I want a lawyer.
I'm not going to talk to you guys.
I need a proper letter.
I will tell you guys everything I know, but I need guaranteed immunity for certain charges.
And I will go ahead and tell you guys exactly who told me where to be at what time to be.
And that would be a great bargaining chip for him to use to actually protect himself from getting, you know, some very serious charges put on him and avoid some serious time.
Obviously, he's going to have to go to jail at some point.
He's going to have to, you know, deal pay the piper.
But that would be a negotiating term that he can use to kind of keep himself from spending 20, 30 or life in jail because they're absolutely going to try to make an example of him.
But if he could give up who gave him that information, I think that would be very important from a law enforcement perspective.
Could I ask a quick question?
Yeah, sure.
So, what are all or some of the different ways that this suspect being alive changes the circumstances in the situation versus the other guy?
Like, he was smoked on the roof of the building, right?
Yeah.
You mean as in, like, what's the difference between this guy not getting killed and another guy?
Yeah, like, how does it change the situation now with the investigation and the prosecution?
Oh, well, I mean, it changes it a lot because in this situation, you actually have a living defendant, right?
So if you have a living defendant, the case doesn't die with him, right?
With Matthew Crooks, there's so many questions, you know, to be asked, but since he's gone, we can't find a motive.
We can't find if he had help from anyone else.
You can't identify these things because you don't have a suspect.
In this situation, they're going to be able to kind of get to the bottom of this and figure out who put them up to it.
How do you know to be there?
Did he have any other co-conspirators?
Why do you do this in particular?
Where did he get the weapon from?
As we speak right now, I guarantee, and I forgot to mention this on my stream, but I'll say it here.
That weapon, as we speak, guaranteed is probably being given to the ATF, a beer of alcohol, tobacco, and farms and explosives.
It's going to get something called an E-Trace ran on it.
And that E-Trace is going to be able to identify the The first person that purchased that firearm and a lot of the times that's very helpful to the investigation because if it was either it was this individual Ruth that purchased the gun or someone else and then we can maybe identify another co-conspirator.
Maybe this individual bought the gun and they gave it to Ruth.
And he used it, etc.
So they're definitely doing that right now as we speak, figuring out who was the original purchaser of that gun and how it ended up in Ruth's hands.
And that might help us identify other co-conspirators because the good thing with each race is it gives you a starting point to figure out who originally purchased the firearm, where they bought it from.
You can go interview the people at the gun shop.
You can go interview the people that bought the gun and then kind of work your way forward.
So...
So yeah, I think with this situation, it's a lot better because you have a living defendant.
But like I said before, playing devil's advocate, if I was a defendant, I would say, look, I want a letter, a proper letter.
I need some type of guaranteed immunity to some degree.
And I will go ahead and tell you guys who put me up to it, who helped me, etc.
Because I would argue from a law enforcement perspective, the individuals that help them are going to be more valuable than him just being the stupid idiot that tried to shoot the president.
But Myron, wouldn't you agree that since we now have a living defendant, I think it's going to make it complicated for the FBI and the law enforcement agencies?
Because we don't know if the suspect has a public defender.
We don't know if he has an attorney on standby or whatever.
But I think that's going to, like...
Hurt of getting the more information out to the public, right?
Because I'm sure the FBI director and the Secret Service director, the new director, is going to be talking to Congress, and their defense strategy is going to be, this is a trial.
The court is going to be taking over this case as well.
I think it's a very big question of how this suspect knew.
Obviously, he could have had surveillance on the former president and his several aides.
I believe he has a pool of aides just around him all the time.
But, I mean, he only has two golf courses.
I mean, I shouldn't say only, but New Jersey or Florida, right?
So he could have been watching him.
But he had a getaway vehicle, which I think is very, you know, important here because he thought he was going to kill Trump and leave.
But let's say you, do you think it's going to be complicated since we now have a living defendant?
Well, I mean, yeah, it's going to be so.
OK, so if he has half a brain, he probably lawyered up at this point.
However, by lawyering up, you know, any defense attorney that has half a brain is going to understand, look, if there's other people that we can give up, It's going to be in our best interest to cooperate with law enforcement, give those people up, and you're going to get a significantly reduced charge and or sentence.
Because I think from a law enforcement perspective, identifying the individuals that put him up to it or assisted him is going to be more important than just simply prosecuting him alone.
So, you know, he probably already has, if he hasn't already lawyered up, he's probably going to lawyer up.
And, you know, I wouldn't be surprised if some big wig attorney doesn't take this pro bono for the notoriety that comes alongside of it.
Or he may have an attorney paid for well above his ability to pay, being a pro bono attorney or being incented to represent him by parties that might be aligned with him politically or might be named as someone who might have assisted him.
In following Trump, being prepared and ready with the weapons at the time and place to try and take Trump out.
So who his lawyer might be?
He's going to have a lawyer.
They'll appoint one for him.
If he can't have one, they won't let him go to the arraignment, which will be Monday or Tuesday.
It has to be by law, 72 hours.
So we'll know more, you know, by Tuesday.
But I'm really interested to watch what happens with jurisdiction on this, because he was arrested by the county sheriff.
This would be a state prosecution within the local county.
And neither the request by Eric Prince to have DeSantis in the state of Florida take over the investigation Or the feds taking over the investigation.
This is not a federal crime at this point, unless and until they designate it officially as an assassination attempt.
This is a local crime.
It's attempted murder.
He was arrested by local authorities, and it should be prosecuted by local authorities.
And like I said very early on in the space, it's not who votes, it's who counts the votes.
And here, to find out, to answer Jarrett's question, what more there might be in terms of who might have assisted this guy, it's who investigates.
I think we have a very unique situation here because of this guy's ties with Ukraine, because if you look at Ukraine in a geopolitical sense, they've probably got 10 to 15 different active intelligence agencies there.
And he probably bumped shoulders with most of them, to be honest.
So, I mean, this could be a lot to bite off, and I think the feds are definitely going to get involved here.
And you know, obviously a search warrant.
Obviously, I suppose the investigators are going through his house, obviously taking any computers and any electronics that he may have, finding out what did he research, I'm sure.
I don't know this, obviously, but we don't know how planned this was.
But I think it was at least premeditated to a T at least a few days prior because he had all of these ammunition or I shouldn't say ammunition.
He had the gun.
He had the two backpacks.
He had several things in the backpacks, a GoPro.
Obviously, he wanted to record him doing this to obviously become, you know, a very big public figure, I guess you could say.
I'm watching the Daily Mail to see if there's any reporting about the family.
We don't know if the suspect's married.
All of that is going to come to light.
Did he send messages to anyone saying that he was going to do this?
You know, that happens a lot with these kinds of shooters.
So definitely going to be watching out for that.
Yeah, and best believe, guys, that they're going to try to elevate this case federally.
You know, the problem with the state a lot of the times is...
How do I say this?
The state simply...
They lose a lot of cases, right?
I think people need to understand that when you prosecute cases from a state perspective, you're dealing with district attorneys that have hundreds of cases from something stupid as a disorderly conduct all the way up to murder.
These guys have...
A whole bunch of different cases.
It's very difficult for them to put effort and resources into one case.
Obviously, something like this is going to be very important, but the state, a lot of the time, simply doesn't have the resources, time, and ability, and personnel to be able to prosecute these cases to the fullest extent of the law.
So, they're absolutely going to try to elevate this to a federal level because AUSAs, or Assistant United States Attorneys, have a lot more resources and time and ability to prosecute cases federally because Because federal prosecutors have the ability to reject cases.
They don't have to necessarily take every single case that comes to them.
They have the ability to say, look, this case isn't big enough.
Hey, it doesn't meet our requirements.
It doesn't meet our thresholds, etc.
They have quite a bit of discretion on what they take and what they don't take.
So, I think they're going to try to elevate this case to a federal level, obviously because, you know, more resources, they do more time typically.
The federal government is a lot more efficient at getting convictions than the state is.
If you are going to use something like the FBI as an investigative agency, they have an enormous amount of resources that are going to shadow the sheriff's office.
So, this is very important for people to realize as well.
That they're going to try to take this thing federally and prosecute it at the federal level, not just for the excess resources, but they're going to get more time and they're going to have to do 80% of the time versus on the state side.
A lot of these guys get out on parole, they get out early, good behavior, all that crap.
Yeah, Myron, you know, all that's true.
I agree with a thousand percent what you said.
The problem here is the federal government is corrupt.
Any investigation of someone trying to assassinate Trump falls within the reasonable suspicion basis that they'll never find Trump's assassin, because look what they did covering up the first one.
I mean, they cremated his body within days, that shooter, so that any sort of forensic process could not take place.
That never happens, even in federal prosecutions.
You don't destroy the body Why the investigation is ongoing.
So, no, I would resist to find the Florida authorities who are going to be aligned with Trump.
They're going to be loyal to Trump.
They're his local cops.
I would expect that they would fight to retain jurisdiction.
They have every right to keep it under the law as far as my experience tells me.
And they can certainly target and garner the resources of the federal government in a joint prosecution with the feds assisting them.
And that happens all the time at the state level.
And keep in mind, the only authority that prosecuted Epstein successfully was the state of Florida.
So, no, I don't touch the feds as far as I can throw them.
Well, that's just his opinion, but they're going to absolutely probably take this federally, guys.
It's too big of a case.
They fucked up with crooks.
They're going to take this thing federal.
Trust me, they're looking for an angle right now to take it federal.
The FBI has a black eye right now, guys.
Okay, so, somebody play some music.
We've got no hands.
Well, I mean, I kind of...
I think that this foreign intelligence thing really has something to it.
I feel like I might be overplaying it a little bit, but I mean, this guy is connected to the intelligence hotspot in the world right now, which is Ukraine, which has pretty much every act, you know, every...
All right, let's go ahead and check the news, guys, see what's going on here.
That was a Twitter space that we were chatting in before.
Let's see, because obviously this is a developing case, so there's stuff going on every minute.
Okay, let's see.
CNN, 27 minutes ago.
Let me ask you, John Miller, what you're learning right now.
And I know that Kristen and Randy— Okay, so this guy's clearly former FBI. We're going through some of the details about the suspect who— I just want to make sure everyone knows, since we are talking about the second assassination attempt, it appears in nine weeks that this individual is in custody.
The Secret Service engaged him.
He tried to flee, but he is in custody.
So they're able to question him.
I don't, at least from my understanding, he hasn't said anything as of yet.
But what are you learning from your sources about this individual and why he was there?
To Kristen's point, if no one else knew Trump for sure was going to be in the state of Florida, never mind at Mar-a-Lago on the golf course, was he just sitting there every day waiting for this opportunity?
Or did he have some sort of information?
Well, what we know is Ryan Wesley Ralph, who is a 58-year-old individual who has lived in Hawaii, has worked as a construction worker in North Carolina, is in Florida today in custody.
He was arrested driving a car that was registered to what we believe is his daughter.
And how did he know to be on that golf course, on that perimeter at that time on this day, is one of the key questions that the FBI and the Secret Service, from a protective intelligence standpoint, are going to need to know the answer to.
But there is one possibility, because Kristen Holmes, who's done incredible reporting throughout the day on this, tells us it's not on a public schedule.
It is not known to...
People that, you know, where he's going and when.
But as she also reported, when he moves, it's a big cavalcade of cars.
So if you see it going from one place to another, you can have an idea.
But more relevantly, in today's age...
Okay, so you can see Trump Golf Club, hole 6, hole 5, I-95 is right here.
Manlink's incident was relatively calm when his car was stopped.
Yeah, he didn't show any emotion, guys, when they caught him.
And we experienced this in New York City, protecting presidents, where we would do something called an OTR, an off-the-record.
It wasn't on the schedule.
They would go to dinner at a place.
It would be some private meeting where people spot that on social media and they put it out.
So if he was in the area lingering for a long time, looking for that information, they'll have to go back through social media.
And did somebody say, I'm on the golf course and Donald Trump is here?
And that's possible, then we don't yet know whether, when they scour that, what they will find.
Jonathan Wacker, we also don't know exactly the distance, for example, right now between the Secret Service agent who spotted that barrel, AK-47, the barrel sticking through that chain-link fence with the scope, the distance between the agent and between that gun, whether they saw it with the naked eye or not.
We know that this all went down very quickly, that that gun was already, you know, through the chain-link fence waiting.
Jonathan, you know, what is your view from what we know right now?
It's limited, but that's what we know about the actions of that Secret Service agent.
Well, you know, I think it's important to understand that the Secret Service has been dealing with protectees that play golf for a very long time.
And they've curated over the years the protective model.
And what I mean by that is if you think about a golf course, it's a very large Uh, area of real estate to secure.
So what they've done is they basically create a, a moving bubble around the protectee, in this case, the former, uh, former president United States.
And in that bubble, you have what we've seen numerous times, which is the protective agents, the women and men that surround the former president.
But the protective model here also bumps out a little bit.
And what you have is you have agents that flank to the left and to the right of the protectee along the edges of those fairways and pushing out even further.
And you have agents that are in advance.
And I don't want to divulge how many because that would reveal too much of the security plan.
But there are agents that go out in advance and they are literally specifically looking for this type of threat.
That would be assassin, that's lying in wait, trying to take advantage of cover and concealment to then launch an attack.
And that's what we had today.
One of those agents came across, identified the threat, and immediately reacted to it.
Yeah, which is great that that agent was like, you know, had the wherewithal to notice that.
Obviously this guy was an idiot too, poking a rifle barrel through a fence like an idiot or in the bushes.
Averting a potential disaster.
Thank God he wasn't, you know, a professional hitman.
Had the president come close enough to be within sight of that would-be assassin.
Juliet, we don't have the exact distance from the shooter to the former president either.
We have a range of 300 to 500 yards, which with a scope, of course, that can be shot.
We all understand that.
But what does that mean to you, Julia, that this was close enough from the perspective of somebody who knows what they're doing with a scope and a gun can shoot.
And succeed at hitting their target from that distance.
And that's the distance we're talking about.
We're just trying to understand here how close this actually came to happening.
Well, we're also assuming that at the moment that the Secret Service agent engaged him was the moment that he intended on shooting Trump, because we don't know if Trump would have gotten closer to him, just given the layout.
If you look at the layout in terms of where he was, so the engagement may have happened at a time when he was further from Trump than he, than the assassin, It's not necessarily intended.
And regardless, it's all too close.
It shows the challenges of setting up legitimate security perimeters when you have people who are targets, who are former presidents and presidential candidates, and you simply cannot have a security perimeter that encompasses all of, you know, all of that area in Florida.
So this was incredible work by the Secret Service, it appears, Probably a lot of luck, but also the assassin's intent of when engagement or when the shots would have been fired may have been later.
And we would have reason to believe that only because his backpacks are still on the fence.
We don't know where Trump was going to be at that stage.
Right.
All right.
Well, we're all going to be returning in just a moment.
And of course, you know, the fact that this individual is in Ryan Wesley Routh is in custody is hugely significant.
And he had an escape plan, right?
So he was planning on getting away, as he indeed tried to do when the Secret Service engaged him.
Our breaking news coverage continues here on...
All right, let's go back to the space, guys.
Hold on.
We'll unmute this thing.
Like, you know, daily wire argument to say that they do, but really any thorough examination of the facts would show that actually Iran's opponents have every reason to do it and not Iran.
I know you guys are more skeptical of the federal government than myself, but I should just note that back in late July...
Well, I thought you were a Republican, and the current government is run by Biden and Harris.
Are you going to vote for Kamala Harris here?
As of last month, Doc, I actually switched my voter registration to an independent.
Okay, but are you seriously considering voting for Kamala Harris?
I am voting for Kamala Harris over Donald Trump.
Elections are about choices, and I think that's my best option.
And that is your choice, sir.
Absolutely.
And it's your choice to vote for Donald Trump.
It's a bad choice, though.
I mean, you know, we can argue that until we turn blue in the face.
But I'm not going to blame Iran for this.
But I do think Iran would be, you know, if they wanted to take a shot at a former president or a president or...
Someone in the cabinet, I think it would be Joe Biden, right?
Because I think Joe Biden has been pretty strong against Iran.
I don't think Donald Trump has been.
Crypto.
Yeah, it's a lot.
I get it.
But here's the thing.
This isn't just about being generous.
You see, we're entering a new era in finance and technology, and blockchain is at the core of it.
People need to be more involved in crypto and...
Hmm.
We've seen that giving people a chance to participate actively is the best way to get them engaged.
Tesla holds thousands of bitcoins and other crypto for years and we never sold.
Donald Trump, on the other hand, received millions of donations in crypto.
He has a strong crypto community support.
And as a crypto guy, he got me as well.
This will boost his campaign chances to win.
And Tesla's future projects, engagements.
We are preparing something big next year.
Well, we've been talking a lot about this, and we believe that events like this are what's going to push the mainstream adoption of blockchain.
We're basically saying, hey, look, crypto is the future, and we want you to be a part of it.
By doubling your holdings, we're giving you more skin in the game.
And yeah, that's a big reason why we're doing this.
Alright, let's talk about Donald Trump for a minute.
We've probably seen our interviews recently and we've had some great conversations.
I'll say this, the guy understands the importance of crypto.
He sees it not just as another financial instrument, but as the future of the financial system.
And you know, I've been around...
I don't know what they're yapping about here.
Let's go to True Social, Donald Trump.
Alright, let's see what he's saying on there.
That's where he does a lot of his stuff.
I hate Taylor Swift.
Let's see here.
Why is all these things so late?
Alright, you know what?
Let's go to his actual Twitter account instead.
Yeah, account is gone.
All right, so...
Oh, wow.
Yeah, it's not showing.
Okay, it might be because I got to log in or something like that.
like that I don't have a true social account but I see that one Gino oh oh and - what he what he said here Let's go back to this thing here.
I don't appreciate the personal character assassination, but that's just not me.
This Friday, early voting, day one here in the country.
No, this was not an assassination.
Well, let me just respond.
I didn't attempt to assassinate you.
We haven't any proof that I'm an assassin right now.
Well, you're calling me.
You're saying that I'm a rot.
Well, you are.
I mean, if you tell anyone that they're somehow a disruptor or they're not really who they are, I think that is a personal character.
No, you just confirmed for me, Jared, that you are not who you said that you were.
You've announced your changes politically through a spectrum over the last three months.
I believe you're paid by somebody.
That's just a belief.
I don't have any reason to believe it other than your conduct.
I don't have proof of it.
I'm not going to be like Dr.
Godot and go after the Krassensteins and go after you and prove all that.
But I'm just saying for the space and for myself, that's the way I feel about your comments here in this space and writ large comments you've made in other spaces about similar issues.
Yeah, I've always said I was a Republican.
But up until a few weeks ago, like I said, I did go to my voter office and change my registration because I think the MAGA party has somehow took over the Republican Party.
I am I'm I'm unapologetically pro-life.
I've been fighting for the unborn since my early college days at Virginia Tech.
Kamala Harris wants abortion on demand up to and after birth.
She's on the record.
How are you pro-life?
You really should just be quiet now.
I'm going to keep making a fool out of you and I don't want to take over the space and do that.
It's only because no one else is talking right now that I'm going on.
But look, Jared, you're just not able to contend in this situation with your background and my knowledge in this situation.
That's funny.
Sir, you sound like a good man.
And I realize that sometimes people are just scared at younger ages.
Some funny stuff as they keep going on.
Hold on, let me find something for y'all real quick.
I'm so sorry, sir.
You talking to Jared or to Doc?
To Doc, definitely.
You think I'm scared of the younger generation?
That's your assessment of my comments here?
No, no.
I'm saying I'm scared of what Donald Trump could do.
What did he do when he was president that scared you?
Do you want me to outline that?
Because I believe this morning...
His presence is awesome.
So this morning, Doc, I woke up, I woke up, took a piss, and looked on my phone.
Darren, please stop.
Ian's got the mic right now.
Please stop.
No, I think we all three have the mic in a conversation.
No, I've got the mic.
I'm the co-host.
I've got the mic.
So, Doc, do you want an answer, or do you just want to ask a question?
Because I want to answer your question.
So let's not make this a monologue, alright?
What I'm saying is, I woke up today, took a piss, and looked at my phone, and I saw Donald Trump said, I hate Taylor Swift.
So when you guys are having a conversation and a meeting of the minds and saying that, you know, Donald Trump is this king and queen, and he's trying to find the government corruption, that's BS. By the way, Doc, I've seen you.
You know, obviously you have your right.
You are so against Israel and you're against foreign aid.
I'm not against Israel.
I'm against genocide.
And I don't think Israel is pursuing genocide.
I think it's the Zionists and led by Bibi Netanyahu and his affiliates here in America that are doing it.
No, this is not, you cannot attack Jews.
I am a Jew.
Okay, so I am not anti-Zionist and not anti-Jew.
You can take your anti-Semitic rhetoric and exit the room if you're going to continue.
Okay, I did not ask you a question.
I did not ask you a question and I'm going to meet you now going to Donald Trump who has his hand up politely.
Go ahead, Donald.
Okay, good evening, Suleiman.
Yeah, I have been listening to the broadcast and I really want to ask a question.
You know, based on the security measures around Donald Trump now, there was a significant concern regarding the compositions of Trump's security details.
Reports indicate that one of the events Trump was protected by prisoners from homeland security I'm going to mute that.
All right, guys.
So here's some breaking news from Laura Loomer here.
She goes...
New York Times profiled the shooter, Ryan Ruth, who tried to assassinate President Donald Trump today.
Ryan Ruth served in the U.S. Foreign Legion in Ukraine, which is reportedly tied to the CIA. Not only did Newsweek interview Ryan Ruth attempted a Trump assassin two years ago about his choice of fighting Ukraine in 2022, but in 2023, the New York Times also profiled the shooter in his efforts to recruit foreign fighters for Ukraine illegally in Pakistan and Iran by purchasing fake passports for Afghan soldiers in Pakistan.
Okay, so I guess he actually did try to do something.
So the U.S. government knew this guy was doing illegal mercenary work and they never stopped.
The Mivorist anti-Trump leftist media wrote glowing profiles about him and gave him a platform.
Ryan Rose's cell phone number traces back to the fight for Ukraine, which has been accused of being a terrorist organization focused on recruiting mercenaries to fight in Ukraine for the sake of killing Russian soldiers.
You guys know that's the website that he had from before.
He was using his email.
And here he is.
Ryan Ruth, a former construction worker from Greensboro, North Carolina, is seeking recruits from among Afghan soldiers who fled the Taliban.
Mr.
Ruth, who spent several months in Ukraine last year, said he planned to move them, in some cases illegally, from Pakistan to Iran.
Wow.
Here he is, paid $1,200 USD per month.
This is his website, it looks like.
And we could probably purchase some passports through Pakistan since it's such a corrupt country, said in an interview from Washington.
It's not clear whether he has succeeded, but one former Afghan soldier said he had been contacted and was interested in fighting if it meant leaving Iran where he was living illegally.
That's crazy, man.
That's crazy.
Yeah.
And guys, just so you guys know, I'm going to end this stream pretty soon.
We're going to go ahead and do a...
A Zoom call with you guys.
CastleClub.tv again, guys.
Again, that website is CastleClub.tv.
That's where we're going to be doing a coaching call for you guys, answering questions, open Q&A, whether it's about making money, dating, being attractive, whatever it may be.
We got y'all.
Castle Club members.
It's going to be a Zoom call just for them.
So go ahead and join in the Castle Club.
Obviously, it's an uncensored.
You guys can ask whatever you want over there.
It's going to be private.
Let's see here.
See, Laura Loomer is good at reporting stuff, especially when it comes to Trump.
Let's see here.
Wife of Trump impeachment witness downplays assassination attempt.
No ears were harmed.
Yeah, this chick is fucking crazy.
Trying to be funny.
Never forget, Ryan Ruth, who tried to assassinate President Trump today, was in support of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.
The Democrats are a party in political violence.
They're trying to kill President Trump, but we can't let them kill our president.
And you guys can see here, he definitely...
Those are some of the suites that I showed you guys earlier before we got taken down.
...with either President Trump, Mike Pence, or Jeff Sessions, who would it be?
Does one of us have to come out alive?
El Kamala, bro.
Don't forget what I was first to expose to Donald Trump was almost assassinated in Butler, Pennsylvania.
Shooter Thomas Matthew Crooks was tied to BlackRock and appeared in a BlackRock ad in 2022.
Now we see Ryan Ruth who tried to assassinate Trump today at his...
West Palm Beach, Florida Golf Club was profiled by the New York Times in 2023 and worked with the U.S. Foreign Legion in Ukraine, which has ties to the CIA. The deep state runs deep.
So obviously now they're saying that there's some CIA connections to this guy.
Let's see here.
Okay, government Ron DeSantis says the state of Florida will be conducting its own investigation into an attempted assassination of President Donald Trump.
Today on West Palm Beach, Florida, the people deserve the truth.
Thank you, Ron DeSantis.
And here he is right here.
The people deserve the truth about the would-be assassin and how he was able to get within 500 yards of former Trump.
So I anticipate who it's going to be, guys, is going to be these guys right here.
Florida Department of DLE, probably.
FDLE. FDLE? Which, think of this as the FBI for the state of Florida, right?
They got their own special agent, State Investigative Agency.
The Florida Department of Law Enforcement is a statewide investigative law enforcement agency within the state of Florida Department.
Formally coordinates eight boards, councils, and commissions.
FDLE's duties, responsibilities, and procedures are mandated through Chapter 943 of the Florida Statutes and Chapter 11 Florida Administrative Code.
FDLE is headed by a commissioner, executive director, who reports to the Florida cabinet, which is composed of the governor, attorney general, the chief financial officer, and the commissioner of agriculture.
The commissioner is appointed It's positioned by the government and cabinet and conformed by the Florida Senate.
It's headquartered in Tallahassee, state capital, and has close to 2,000 employees statewide.
So this is the agency.
They're probably going to be the ones to do this independent state investigation.
So yeah, that's Ron DeSantis saying that, the governor of Florida.
And then this is what I read to you guys before.
Here's the video that we watched earlier.
The screenshot people are posting saying Trump said, oh, and to his fake people should do better research.
Fake posts, not even real Donald Trump's account.
So, okay, so Bajino posted a fake thing.
See, Laura's on top of it, man.
This is Donald Trump Jr.
goes, fucking disgusting, NBC. Let's see here.
Today's apparent assassination attempt comes amid increasingly fierce rhetoric on the campaign trail itself.
Mr.
Trump, his running mate J.D. Vance continue to make baseless claims about Haitian immigrants in Ohio.
This weekend, there were new bomb threats in that town.
Our Maggie Vespa is in Columbus, Ohio, with more.
Lester simply put, Springfield, Ohio has been inundated by threats.
Over the last several days, closing government buildings, schools, hospitals.
Today, effectively closing a local university campus after administrators said someone threatened a mass shooting targeting Haitians.
This in light of, officials say, a false online conspiracy theory alleging Haitian immigrants in that city are eating people's pets.
Something...
Oh, crap.
All right, we've lost our contact with Maggie.
Fantastic.
This is his Newsweek article.
On 9-11, Time Magazine posted this cover of their paper for this month.
It's the photo of Donald Trump on the golf course with the words, in trouble.
Did they have advanced knowledge of the attempted assassination attempt?
Oh, here he is.
Okay.
Let's see here.
Let's play.
This is from Chief Trumpster.
Ukraine is reluctant to be cooperative.
That's Ryan Ruth, a U.S. citizen who set up the International Volunteer Center in Ukraine to help connect foreigners to Ukrainian military units.
Now I'm talking to over 100 soldiers every day and pretty much everybody, all of my contacts in Ukraine, they were adamant and pretty much yelled at me every time that I suggested that we bring in Afghans.
The Ukrainian government didn't respond to our requests for comment, but a source close to the officials in Kyiv told Semaphore that their top concern is the question of loyalty in the thick fog of war.
The biggest thing is spies.
They're afraid that anybody and everybody is a Russian spy.
Those concerns aren't completely unfounded.
Russia's notorious private military group, Wagner, has reportedly begun recruiting Afghan commandos.
They don't want to fight for the Russians, the Russians are enemy, but what else are they going to do?
Semaphore reviewed these text messages from Afghan soldiers, which tell the same story.
Ukraine is reluctant to be cooperative.
That's Ryan Ruth.
Yeah, so this guy's basically a fucking mercenary, is what this guy is for Ukraine.
And he wanted to take out Trump.
And I mean, it makes sense because we know, right?
And I want to be very clear about this, guys.
Trump hasn't been vocal about this.
I've watched a couple of his debates and his speeches, etc.
And he always says that he's going to end the war in Ukraine, but he doesn't actually specifically go into why sometimes.
And, you know, obviously because it looks bad, right?
And the reason why is because...
What he intends to do is more than likely, and J.D. Vance talked about this in an interview before, is he's just going to concede to what Russia has already taken, right?
Let them have it.
They have roughly 20-25% of Ukraine at this moment, right?
The whole eastern side to include...
We went over this with Jackson Hinkle, but let's go ahead.
ahead I'll show you guys on the map here.
Right?
They pretty much have this area here.
Like this whole eastern side, pretty much.
Right?
To include, this is Crimea over here.
Right?
So, why the hell is it all written?
Okay, whatever.
You guys get the point.
It's all written in Russian and or Ukrainian.
But the point I'm trying to make is they pretty much control this area here, right?
And it's always changing, right?
Because obviously the conflict is ongoing.
But what Trump is going to more than likely do is allow them to have that, promise no more NATO expansion, Allow them to have this land and make good on a lot of the agreements that they made before without keep empowering NATO because that is Russia's chief concern.
And it's crazy to me because they just allowed U.S. missiles, right, to go into Russia, which is a straight provocation of a war.
Right.
And the Democrats are just letting this happen.
So this guy, Ruth, wants us to fight alongside Ukraine.
And I think a big reason why he wants to get rid of Trump is because Trump obviously is going to allow Russia to keep the territory they've already acquired and end the conflict immediately.
Which, you know, will pretty much tell Zelensky, hey, bro, we're not going to fund you anymore.
And that's exactly what Ruth does not want, because obviously he's super pro-Ukraine.
He wants the fight to keep going.
He wants innocent people to keep dying, and he wants soldiers to keep dying, which, you know, obviously this is a losing war for Ukraine and for us, because we spent billions upon billions of dollars, right?
It doesn't make sense.
So, and we did an interview with Jackson Hinkle, guys.
Feel free to go check it out, where we go into more detail as to what Russia has conquered.
But again, it changes all the time, guys.
They're fighting every single day.
So, I might not be 100% accurate on that.
But definitely watch, you know, Colonel McGregor, Jackson Hinkle, Scott Ritter.
They cover this conflict all the time with great accuracy.
And I have my problems with Donald Trump, you know, being a champion of the vaccine.
Donald Trump is campaigning on creating three of the vaccines that were in his administration.
So, Doc, when you try to distance yourself or you try to distance Trump from...
All right, now they're talking about the vaccine.
Okay.
Chat, we're going to go ahead and do a Zoom call.
CastClub.tv, guys, join in.
Message fresh right now.
We're going to drop the Zoom call link in the Castle Club here in a second.
And, guys, I think we might do a subathon for you guys on Tuesday.
Okay.
Okay?
I'm thinking we're going to do it for you guys on Tuesday.
I think it's very important.
Like I said before, we want to take over Twitch.
So we'll go ahead and do a subathon for y'all ninjas.
If Fresh can't make it, I'll do it myself.
And, you know, shout out to Twitch for letting us come back on within a seven-day period.
Shout out to them.
Oh, they're in the chat right now.
We added four bits and four bonus bits to...
Yo, shout out to...
Man, they're showing us love, man.
So...
Showing us a lot of love.
I appreciate that, Twitch.
Because they definitely don't have to be in here, but they are.
So, thank you.
Yeah, we're going to take our talents to Twitch and Rumble.
That's where we're going to take our talents, bro.
We're done with YouTube, man.
We're just going to post clips on there.
We're going to stream on Twitch and Rumble.
And thank you guys for supporting us, man.
Letting us appeal, etc.
I really appreciate that.
Really, really appreciate that.
And you guys gave us another chance, so much respect.
Yeah, I'm going to try not to get banned on Twitch, man.
I'm trying to follow the rules here.
Definitely trying to follow them.
I understand that not everything I say is going to be Twitch-friendly, and that's fine.
You know, we'll do it off-platform.
I get that.
But I appreciate them letting us rock.
I do appreciate that.
And they obviously let us appeal and brought us back on, so W for that.
Because other platforms would just be like, nah, stay banned.
You know?
Guys, the link is here.
I'll drop the Castle Club.
It's castleclub.tv.
That's the link, man, for you guys to join in.
Matter of fact, Subathon is going to be this Tuesday, guys.
It's going to be lit.
It's going to be absolutely lit.
It's going to be a good time.
So, I might stay another, like...
Let me call.
Let me...
Maybe I'll...
Yeah, Sabaton is definitely going to come this Tuesday.
Let me unmute here, see what they're saying on this group.
For sure.
There was no doubt about that.
I was on his side.
I was like, whoa, these guys are really attacking him.
And he was holding his own.
But then he capitulated.
He capitulated hard.
He made sure he accelerated the vaccine to make sure the lockdowns don't happen.
But he accelerated this vaccine.
So as much as all these COVID people are against it, whatever it may be, he accelerated.
He was so proud of it.
He called himself the father of vaccine.
And at that time, they all thought that he'd done a great job.
Hence why they intentionally did not even advertise the vaccine until he lost the election.
So, as much as I get it, you know what it is.
Like, I get people are pro-Trump, anti-Trump, whatever it may be.
But, yes, certain things he did better than others in the lockdown.
Other things he did much worse.
The vaccine, he himself.
So, as much as you don't want to give him responsibility, he's given himself responsibility.
So, like, I don't even get it.
So, he calls himself the father of the vaccine.
So that interview was from two years ago, guys.
Did Trump call himself the father of the vaccine?
I guess he did, but I asked someone to put it up in the nest and I haven't seen it yet.
I'm working on it, but I do have a question.
Are you saying Trump has a gun to his head?
I'm just going to respond to Sully, Jared.
Hang on a second.
I'll let you talk.
And we've got to get Mayor Caton here because there's got to be a little balanced because it's not right now.
Look, Trump has made a political decision at one point in time.
It's not to his political advantage at this point while he's trying to acquire the power to do what he says he's going to do, to do what MAGA supporters think he's going to do, to do what independent supporters under Kennedy and Tulsi Gabbard's support think he's going to do, right?
It doesn't make any sense to go out and tell all the conservatives...
All right, chat.
So we covered the assassination.
I'm going to go ahead because you guys keep asking me about this Nico situation.
All right.
So give me one to the chat if you guys want me to look at this, see what's going on.
Give me one to the chat.
I'll do it on...
Let me see here.
Give me one to the chat if you guys want this.
You guys keep asking me about this thing.
Alright, this is what I'm going to do.
I'm not really familiar with what the hell is going on here.
Obviously, I'm friends with both of them.
I'm going to look.
Okay?
I'm going to look here.
They said do it here, not Cows Club.
Alright.
So, since this stream is about the assassination, I'm going to end the Rumble stream here.
I'll keep going on Twitch.
Alright?
Keep going on Twitch for another 10 minutes.
I'll react to this real quick.
Because I want to keep this...
So when people come back and watch the stream on Rumble, it makes sense.
Right?
We covered the assassination, but before I do, let me give a quick recap.
Nice summary before we close this thing out on Rumble.
Earlier today...
A would-be assassin, later identified as Ryan Ruth, was in at the golf course where Trump was golfing up in West Palm Beach, Florida area, West Palm Beach County.
And the individual was encountered by Secret Service.
Secret Service fired shots at him when they saw what appeared to be the barrel of an AK-47 type rifle protruding from a fence and or bushes.
The individual ran.
Secret Service went to the location where he was at.
They found a GoPro, backpack, some tiles, etc.
They gave Chase, were able to do a traffic stop, stop him, apprehend him, arrest him.
He didn't make any statements when he was grabbed.
And to my knowledge right now, he hasn't made any statements to law enforcement.
But he is in custody right now at the state level.
I don't think he's been formally charged yet, but I predict that there are going to be state charges on him.
And those charges are probably more than likely going to be upgraded to federal charges, I predict, within the next 48 to 72 hours.
You're probably going to see a criminal complaint in him being charged.
He was...
The FBI is leading the investigation from the federal perspective.
I'm assuming that the sheriff's office is more than likely doing the state investigation.
They're doing search warrants right now as we speak, probably on his phone, tablets, house, etc., trying to figure out if there are other co-conspirators, etc.
I also presume, they haven't mentioned this, but the gun was seized.
There's probably an ATF e-trace being conducted right now to figure out where that weapon came from, who was the original purchaser, and identify other potential co-conspirators of where he might have gotten that gun from.
And obviously the investigation is pending.
We know that this individual is probably a more radical leftist.
He is super pro-Ukraine.
He was essentially a mercenary.
He was in Ukraine two years ago trying to get support and resources to help the Ukrainians fight off the Russians.
He was even trying to get mercenaries from Afghanistan to help with the fight.
And he doesn't like Putin.
And, you know, it makes sense to me why he would potentially.
Right.
This is maybe just one of many motives of why this guy doesn't like Trump.
But Trump, as we know, wants to end this war in Ukraine.
He wants to stop funding Ukraine and he wants this war to end.
So someone like him who's pro-Ukraine probably doesn't like to hear that because Ukraine is going to lose somewhere between 20 to 25 percent of their country.
Because a part of him ending this war more than likely is going to be him allowing Russia to keep the land that they have conquered, which is Eastern Ukraine, which has a lot of ethnic Russians there.
Okay?
That is basically what we got going on right now.
Obviously, as updates come into this investigation, I will go ahead and update you guys on Twitter.
But for now, that kind of closes out the Rumble stream.
So guys, go ahead and come on over to Twitch.
I'll react real quick to the situation with Tate and Sneeko.
Because I want to keep this Rumble stream nice and clean and on topic of what it is.
So here is the link, guys.
And then after I do this stream, I'm going to do a Zoom call with all of you ninjas.
So I hope you guys enjoyed the stream, by the way.
Let me read chats before I get off here at Rumble.
Guys, give me any questions you might have on this investigation.
I really want to make sure I give you guys as much value as I can on Rumble before I get off here.
Let me see here.
Any questions you guys got, go ahead and get them in now.
On this investigation.
My cast club isn't working.
Asked me to sign up again for 35, but I had 17 before.
You might have unsubscribed, bro, and now you got to pay the new price.
Told you guys to grandfather in a 17, man.
Let's see here.
We got...
Manny Free says, it is depressing that people are voting on a federal level about abortion, and by my prediction, will be the reason Kamala wins.
Good assessment?
Yeah, a lot of Americans don't know that they delegated it to the states, and they think that Trump is anti-abortion, which is going to be further from the truth.
FBI opened up and says, when you finally decide to have a kid, are you going to give them your family last name or the last name Gaines?
It's going to be my family last name, guys.
Topshay says, what's good, G. Myron?
How much you want to bet the shooter's one of them boys?
You know what I'm talking about.
Okay.
Topshay.
Myron Jr.
is back.
Yo, Myron, my sneaky link.
Oh, no.
Got that one before.
I think we are caught up on the chats here.
