Patriot,

Last week's attempted assassination of former President Donald
Trump came as a shock. Not because someone made the attempt but
because the shooter was able to kill one, critically injure two,
and take what was almost a fatal shot at Trump without being
interdicted by the Secret Service.

That the shooter made the attempt is the natural outcome of the
vitriolic rhetoric against Trump over the past nine years, from
the mass media, the Democrats, and President Biden himself.

As I discuss in my latest column - read it below - we deserve a
full, impartial, and transparent investigation into the security
failures that led to what happened. Instead, what we are going to
get from the mass media will be a whitewash.

Naturally, the media have already started to blame Trump himself,
rather than themselves, for putting the former president in the
crosshairs.

It's critical we do not allow the media to placate us and demand
accountability.

Read the column below, and if you agree we need to speak the
truth and hold people and the government accountable, please
support Campaign for Liberty with a contribution.

Why We'll Never Know What Really Happened in Butler, PA

Just days after the attempted assassination of former President
Donald Trump, theories are flying from all directions. Many who
ridiculed the "conspiracy theories" of conservatives are now
suggesting the whole event was a set-up to boost Trump in the
polls ahead of the election. Others suggest it was the "deep
state" or even foreign actors who organized it.

Former US Navy Seal and founder of Blackwater, Erik Prince,
claims that "The fact that [the Secret Service] allowed a rifle
armed shooter within 150 yds to a preplanned event is either
malice or massive incompetence." He went on to observe that,
"unaccountable bloated bureaucracies continue to fail us as
Americans," adding that "unserious and unworthy people in
positions of authority got us to this near disaster. Merit and
execution must be the only deciding factors in hiring and
leadership, not the social engineering priority of the day."

Video has emerged showing that for at least two minutes law
enforcement knew someone with a gun was on a roof aiming at the
former President and no one communicated the need to pull Trump
from the stage. You can clearly hear the crowd warning law
enforcement that someone was on the roof. Yet he was unhindered
until the first shots rang out.

Considering this fact, Erik Prince has a point.

If this is like any previous governmental foul-ups, we can expect
hearings, investigations, and commissions that will actually
serve to hide the official errors or even malicious intent by
some in the government. That's what government does no matter who
is in office: protect itself from actual scrutiny and resist
being exposed as incompetent or worse.

But what if there was a genuine investigation that actually
revealed the truth about what happened at the Trump rally over
the weekend? Could we rely on the mainstream media to even report
it? This is the same media that, after Trump was clearly shot on
live television, reported "Trump escorted away after loud noises
at PA rally." (Washington Post). And "Secret Service rushes Trump
offstage after he falls at rally." (CNN).

This is the same mainstream media that has been comparing Donald
Trump to Hitler for years, and now pretends to be shocked that
their vile rhetoric ended up in violence. There is a good reason
why the mainstream media is regarded by the American public with
record levels of contempt.

The current Director of the Secret Service has been interviewed
expressing her dedication to "diversity" in hiring agents. What
if her dedication to DEI goals led to an agency that is more
"diverse" but fails at its core mission? Can we rely on the media
to inform us of this? Or will they, as usual, just blame it all
on the Second Amendment?

What if the problem with the Secret Service is that it was moved
into the bloated, incompetent, and menacing Department of
Homeland Security, the creation of which I strongly opposed when
I was in Congress?

We shouldn't count on hearing the truth about the attempted
assassination from the mainstream media. No wonder the elites
remain determined to censor social media sites like Twitter/X and
TikTok. We live in an empire of lies, propped up by the
mainstream media. And seeking the truth in this empire of lies is
the greatest challenge for us in the moral bankruptcy in which we
live.
