(JD Rucker’s Substack)—This week I will be talking to a few “insiders” to try to glean what’s really happening with the assassination plot against President Donald J. Trump. I’m not willing to blindly accept that this random “lone wolf” was able to defeat both the Secret Service and local law enforcement.
No, Trump didn’t die (praise God!) but if not for a quick turn of the head he would have. That means that the Secret Service and their law enforcement partners failed miserably.
Most conservative pundits are blaming DEI so Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle should be fired. Some are saying they were understaffed so it’s Alejandro Mayorkas’s fault. There are a lot of fingers pointing at Democrats and corporate media for feeding the “Hitler” rhetoric to as many Americans as they can get to listen.
None of that matters, in my humble opinion, because it does not excuse that a dude with a rifle achieved a prime spot on a nearby rooftop in plain view of the crowd, local law enforcement, and Secret Service snipers. With so many forces arrayed against him, he was still able to get off one clean shot and seven other shots. He killed one and injured three. The chances of that happening without inside collusion from the upper brass are pretty low.
But gross incompetence does exist, so the fact that it happened isn’t enough to make me question everything. There are two other reasons I’m not buying the “indoctrinated lone wolf” narrative. Combined, I’m smelling a rat.
Matt Walsh from Dailywire posted thoughts on X earlier that hinted at one of the red flags I’ve been considering. He wrote [emphasis added]:
Here’s the official story so far: a random 20 year old acting completely alone walked within 150 yards of a presidential campaign rally with a rifle, climbed onto a rooftop in full view of Secret Service snipers, set up his shot and fired without anyone intervening and with no help from anyone. This 20 year old is also so politically radical as to attempt an assassination and yet not radical enough to have ever posted any political writings or commentary on any social media site ever in his life. He also wrote no manifesto and left behind no indication about why he did it. His last and only political act, before attempting to kill the Republican candidate, was to register as a Republican. You must believe this and ask no questions about it or else you are a conspiracy theorist. And one thing we know about assassination attempts is that there’s never any conspiring involved.
There are always signs. Even in the rare case when a mass shooter or political assassin doesn’t leave behind a manifesto or political writing on social media, interviews with people who know him invariably highlight signs of aggression, radicalization, or… something. In this case, none of his classmates, friends, or co-workers saw it coming. The lack of any signs, works, or messages is unique and smells doubly like a rat was involved.
The third and final element that makes me question the entire narrative is the timing. Let’s say, for the sake of argument, that the “Deep State” had decided Joe Biden can’t win even if he cheats, nobody they replace him with could win even if they cheat, and whoever the Republican nominee is would need to be under their thumb.
Go ahead and put your tinfoil hats on because this is where it gets a bit crazier.
Desperate, the Deep State decides they need to take Trump out. But here’s the thing. If they do it after the Republican National Convention, it would be up to the RNC members to pick his replacement and they would almost certainly pick whoever Trump announces as his VP during the convention.
BUT if the assassination happens before the convention and therefore before Trump announced J.D. Vance as his running mate, then it’ll be a floor fight for delegates to determine the nominee. That’s something the Deep State can control. They can plug in whichever NeoCon RINO member of the UniParty Swamp they want within reason. No, they couldn’t pull off a Liz Cheney nomination but they could pull off, say, a Nikki Haley nomination.
It’s conspicuous that as of last week she wasn’t even invited to the RNC and conveniently she was added to the list to speak on Saturday. Crazy timing.
By no means am I suggesting that Nikki Haley was in on a plot to assassinate President Trump. But the Deep State may have been thinking it for her.
There are all sorts of conspiracy theories out there. Some are better than mine. Most are not. And yes, there’s a decent chance that this really was a “lone wolf assassin” who heard that Trump would be coming into town so he thought he’d assassinate him. He even bought his ammunition the day of the event. Talk about spontaneous!
Very little makes sense about Thomas Matthew Crooks being a sudden assassin who outflanked the Secret Service so easily UNLESS you plug in a desperate Deep State operating behind the scenes. Food for thought, albeit crazy thoughts.

Five Things New “Preppers” Forget When Getting Ready for Bad Times Ahead
The preparedness community is growing faster than it has in decades. Even during peak times such as Y2K, the economic downturn of 2008, and Covid, the vast majority of Americans made sure they had plenty of toilet paper but didn’t really stockpile anything else.
Things have changed. There’s a growing anxiety in this presidential election year that has prompted more Americans to get prepared for crazy events in the future. Some of it is being driven by fearmongers, but there are valid concerns with the economy, food supply, pharmaceuticals, the energy grid, and mass rioting that have pushed average Americans into “prepper” mode.
There are degrees of preparedness. One does not have to be a full-blown “doomsday prepper” living off-grid in a secure Montana bunker in order to be ahead of the curve. In many ways, preparedness isn’t about being able to perfectly handle every conceivable situation. It’s about being less dependent on government for as long as possible. Those who have proper “preps” will not be waiting for FEMA to distribute emergency supplies to the desperate masses.
Below are five things people new to preparedness (and sometimes even those with experience) often forget as they get ready. All five are common sense notions that do not rely on doomsday in order to be useful. It may be nice to own a tank during the apocalypse but there’s not much you can do with it until things get really crazy. The recommendations below can have places in the lives of average Americans whether doomsday comes or not.

Secured Wealth
Whether in the bank or held in a retirement account, most Americans feel that their life’s savings is relatively secure. At least they did until the last couple of years when de-banking, geopolitical turmoil, and the threat of Central Bank Digital Currencies reared their ugly heads.
It behooves Americans to diversify their holdings. If there’s a triggering event or series of events that cripple the financial systems or devalue the U.S. Dollar, wealth can evaporate quickly. To hedge against potential turmoil, many Americans are looking in two directions: Crypto and physical precious metals.
There are huge advantages to cryptocurrencies, but there are also inherent risks because “virtual” money can become challenging to spend. Add in the push by central banks and governments to regulate or even replace cryptocurrencies with their own versions they control and the risks amplify. There’s nothing wrong with cryptocurrencies today but things can change rapidly.
As for physical precious metals, many Americans pay cash to keep plenty on hand in their safe. Rolling over or transferring retirement accounts into self-directed IRAs is also a popular option, but there are caveats. It can often take weeks or even months to get the gold and silver shipped if the owner chooses to close their account. This is why Genesis Gold Group stands out. Their relationship with the depositories allows for rapid closure and shipping, often in less than 10 days from the time the account holder makes their move. This can come in handy if things appear to be heading south.
Lots of Potable Water
One of the biggest shocks that hit new preppers is understanding how much potable water they need in order to survive. Experts claim one gallon of water per person per day is necessary. Even the most conservative estimates put it at over half-a-gallon. That means that for a family of four, they’ll need around 120 gallons of water to survive for a month if the taps turn off and the stores empty out.
Being near a fresh water source, whether it’s a river, lake, or well, is a best practice among experienced preppers. It’s necessary to have a water filter as well, even if the taps are still working. Many refuse to drink tap water even when there is no emergency. Berkey was our previous favorite but they’re under attack from regulators so the Alexapure systems are solid replacements.
For those in the city or away from fresh water sources, storage is the best option. This can be challenging because proper water storage containers take up a lot of room and are difficult to move if the need arises. For “bug in” situations, having a larger container that stores hundreds or even thousands of gallons is better than stacking 1-5 gallon containers. Unfortunately, they won’t be easily transportable and they can cost a lot to install.
Water is critical. If chaos erupts and water infrastructure is compromised, having a large backup supply can be lifesaving.
Pharmaceuticals and Medical Supplies
There are multiple threats specific to the medical supply chain. With Chinese and Indian imports accounting for over 90% of pharmaceutical ingredients in the United States, deteriorating relations could make it impossible to get the medicines and antibiotics many of us need.
Stocking up many prescription medications can be hard. Doctors generally do not like to prescribe large batches of drugs even if they are shelf-stable for extended periods of time. It is a best practice to ask your doctor if they can prescribe a larger amount. Today, some are sympathetic to concerns about pharmacies running out or becoming inaccessible. Tell them your concerns. It’s worth a shot. The worst they can do is say no.
If your doctor is unwilling to help you stock up on medicines, then Jase Medical is a good alternative. Through telehealth, they can prescribe daily meds or antibiotics that are shipped to your door. As proponents of medical freedom, they empathize with those who want to have enough medical supplies on hand in case things go wrong.
Energy Sources
The vast majority of Americans are locked into the grid. This has proven to be a massive liability when the grid goes down. Unfortunately, there are no inexpensive remedies.
Those living off-grid had to either spend a lot of money or effort (or both) to get their alternative energy sources like solar set up. For those who do not want to go so far, it’s still a best practice to have backup power sources. Diesel generators and portable solar panels are the two most popular, and while they’re not inexpensive they are not out of reach of most Americans who are concerned about being without power for extended periods of time.
Natural gas is another necessity for many, but that’s far more challenging to replace. Having alternatives for heating and cooking that can be powered if gas and electric grids go down is important. Have a backup for items that require power such as manual can openers. If you’re stuck eating canned foods for a while and all you have is an electric opener, you’ll have problems.
Don’t Forget the Protein
When most think about “prepping,” they think about their food supply. More Americans are turning to gardening and homesteading as ways to produce their own food. Others are working with local farmers and ranchers to purchase directly from the sources. This is a good idea whether doomsday comes or not, but it’s particularly important if the food supply chain is broken.
Most grocery stores have about one to two weeks worth of food, as do most American households. Grocers rely heavily on truckers to receive their ongoing shipments. In a crisis, the current process can fail. It behooves Americans for multiple reasons to localize their food purchases as much as possible.
Long-term storage is another popular option. Canned foods, MREs, and freeze dried meals are selling out quickly even as prices rise. But one component that is conspicuously absent in shelf-stable food is high-quality protein. Most survival food companies offer low quality “protein buckets” or cans of meat, but they are often barely edible.
Prepper All-Naturals offers premium cuts of steak that have been cooked sous vide and freeze dried to give them a 25-year shelf life. They offer Ribeye, NY Strip, and Tenderloin among others.
Having buckets of beans and rice is a good start, but keeping a solid supply of high-quality protein isn’t just healthier. It can help a family maintain normalcy through crises.
Prepare Without Fear
With all the challenges we face as Americans today, it can be emotionally draining. Citizens are scared and there’s nothing irrational about their concerns. Being prepared and making lifestyle changes to secure necessities can go a long way toward overcoming the fears that plague us. We should hope and pray for the best but prepare for the worst. And if the worst does come, then knowing we did what we could to be ready for it will help us face those challenges with confidence.
There’s nothing crazy about what you wrote, many of us believe this was yet another inside job.
Nothing that you posted sounds crazy to me. What’s crazy is believing the official narrative.
I do not believe the violence is over by a long shot (no pun intended). This could be a part one of a two part strategy. First part was to remove Trump if possible before the convention which would then produce a candidate more acceptable to the Deep State. Since that did not work and Vance would likely replace him on the ballot, they have to go to part two. That involves taking out Biden by the same method so they can replace him with a more lucid candidate that might appeal to more voters. Removing Biden violently would trigger a huge rage against MAGA that would probably make them lose at the polls, up and down the ticket, everywhere. So, where do I get my tin hat?
By the way, I do not endorse violence against any candidate for any reason. Violence is not a solution.
Staged by the the Uniparty (self-assumed Aristocrats). The people need to get the two party system out of their head and realize you are being toyed with and join together against the machine of government, finance and big business.
Why did you remove my comment? Are you really trying to find the truth or just push your agenda.
It’s the Uniparty (all of them), including Trump. They believe they are the Aristocrats, and you are their serfs to do as they please. People of America need to come together for freedom before they divide us into open slavery.
This was a staged event pushing PSYOPS on the people. They need you divided and focus on parties instead of what they are doing. We need to stop big government, finance and business collusion (Fascism). Fascism, Socialism and Communism are all the same thing with different feathers, TYRANNY by the Oligarchs.
