Starting this fall, public schools in Florida will be required to display the words “In God We Trust

  • The state statute (1003.44) specifically says, “Each district school board shall adopt rules to require, in all of the schools of the district and in each building used by the district school board, the display of the state motto, “In God We Trust,” designated under s. 15.0301, in a conspicuous place.”

BREAKING: Shots fired… Secret Service rushes Trump off stage

Former US president Donald Trump was rushed off stage with blood smeared across his face after a shooting at his campaign rally in Pennsylvania this morning, Australian time.

The local district-attorney, Richard Goldinger, has confirmed that Mr Trump was “grazed by gunfire but is safe”. He appeared to suffer an injury to his right ear.

Before the Secret Service moved Mr Trump off the stage, he stopped and raised his fist to the crowd, with blood smeared across his right cheek. He was then ushered to a car…

A true American Patriot… Risking Life and Liberty for the American people… Not a the Stumbling… Bumbling mess like the current US President…

Biden…took almost 90 minutes to respond…and was unenthusiastic…" Even the Australian Prime Minister responded with a statement before sleepy Joe…

Eyewitnesses recall the moment shots were fired at Donald Trump

Trump turns his head a split second before he is shot… That saved his life… God was looking out for the USA… I wonder how the ‘Binder’ is going to spin this at the next press conference???

It’s being reported by witnesses at the rally… “Secret service and police ignored people that tried to tell them they watched the shooter climbing up the building with a rifle and were pointing at him for minutes before he fired his weapon…” WOW!

How compromised is the Secret Service if they let the shooter enter the area armed, climb up there, get into position, take aim and get off a shot before they do anything?

Well this could make a lot of people sitting at home who weren’t going to vote, go vote now…

He also got right up after being shot, looked at the crowd and yelled “fight! FIGHT!”

Strictly speaking from a game theory perspective, after the Trump v. USA ruling, stopping Trump in the courts became a more difficult option than others. Also relevant, I can think of more.men than I can count on one hand that would consider it an honor to continue the fight even if Trump had been assassinated.

Elon Musk just endorsed Trump.

Despite the BS, America must stay strong

How compromised is the Secret Service if they let the shooter enter the area armed, climb up there, get into position, take aim and get off a shot before they do anything…?

Whoever was responsible for scoping the area for potential shooters and vantage points needs to be held accountable… If bystanders were able to see him then law enforcement and secret service should have seen him…

Something doesn’t seem right with this situation…! Security was either in on it or way to lax…! This appears to be getting really insidious… If two and two ends up equalling four…

Multiple presidents, former presidents or candidates have survived assassination attempts

In the pre-Civil War era, President Andrew Jackson was shot at while attending a funeral in the Capitol. The shooter fired twice, but the gun failed.

Former President Theodore Roosevelt, like Trump, was trying to get his old job back during the 1912 campaign. He was shot on the way to a speech in Milwaukee by a saloon keeper. Roosevelt later said a folded-up copy of his 50-page speech slowed the bullet, which stayed in his body for the rest of his life. He gave the speech despite the shooting.

Franklin D. Roosevelt was president-elect when a would-be assassin fired at him in Miami in 1933. The shooter, Guiseppe Zangara, missed Roosevelt but killed Chicago Mayor Anton Cermak. He was put to death by electrocution.

Harry Truman, who took over the presidency after Roosevelt died, was shot at across from the White House by Puerto Rican nationalists in 1950.

Alabama Gov. George Wallace, a segregationist who was running for president for the third time in 1972, was shot after a campaign event outside Washington, DC. The shooting left him paralyzed from the waist down, and he later rethought his politics.

Gerald Ford faced two assassination attempts in quick succession in 1975. Lynette “Sqeaky” Fromme, a follower of cult leader Charles Manson, was foiled before she could fire at Ford in Sacramento, California. Weeks later, a woman named Sara Jane Moore shot at Ford in San Francisco but missed because a bystander grabbed her.

Ronald Reagan was shot in 1981 outside the Hilton in Washington, DC, after giving a speech. His press secretary, James Brady, was more seriously wounded than Reagan and later became an activist for gun control. Reagan’s shooter, John Hinckley, spent decades in a mental institution. He was released from court supervision in 2022.

An Idaho man was charged with the attempted assassination of Barack Obama when he fired shots at the White House in 2011.

CNN Breaking News: “Trumps ear brutally assaults mid-air bullet fired by a mostly peaceful TDS afflicted assassin…” Quick… Get Alvin Bragg on the line…

So the secret service provided multiple snipers to watch the rooftops which were right outside of the venue, but no one thought it might be wise to restrict access to those same rooftops which had a clear line of site to Trump?

This is so sketchy…

America is divided, and Now in Very Dangerous Territory.

SNIPER REACTS during SUSPECTED TRUMP ASSASINATION

This is very weird… You telling me they saw the shooter beforehand with a rifle in hand and waited for him to shoot first before taking him out…?

Watched a few clips of the event now… Something doesn’t make sense… This will be called a “cheap fake” video any minute by KJP and the extremist Leftist Media…

Lots of questions!! Why was the secret service sniper already aiming at the assassin and waited for the shooter to shoot before taking him out…? Why was that building not secured? Now the assassin was killed immediately after getting off about 7 rounds…

Unfortunately/Fortunately depending on your Political outlook… We will never hear from him…!!

It would be interesting to see what theories you come up with

Trump got shot but Biden will take the political hit… This rather major chain of events will hand the Trumpster the keys to the Whitehouse in November…

Fundraising will no longer be an issue for the Republicans… The Merch that Trump will sell from his attempted assassination will bring in millions of campaign dollars in the next 4 months…

Almost a recreation of the iconic photograph of six United States Marines raising the U.S. flag atop Mount Suribachi during the Battle of Iwo Jima…

The image of the flag raising was reproduced thousands of times in the media for morale and propaganda purposes… For U.S. service members and the public generally…

It symbolized the country’s resolve to continue fighting against formidable odds…

There’s a possibility that was a warning, that America won’t tolerate a dictator or wannabe dictators in the future. We will fight for our freedom.

Keep your chin up America, we must get through this.

Trump has spread false stories and lies about Obama for eight years, which has led to hatred for Obama. I can see why people dislike Trump.

The dislike for Trump did not manifest overnight, it started before he entered politics. How people feel about someone can often be determined by that person’s actions and behavior

This shooting sure does have it’s similarities to the JFK shooting, Loan gunman?, Secret Service failure to secure the area, then Jack Rubied the gunman. I have lots of questions that I am sure we will never get answers too.

WOW…!! You know something is up when even CNN… The network that relies on you for it’s ratings but would still prefer to see you gone is calling out the very agency that was entrusted to protect you…

Who trained him? Who left the ladders out for him…? Why did nobody respond to witnesses who saw the suspect for 3 to 5 mins…? The sniper team were facing the right direction, why did they allow the hit…? Why did police not sound the alarm…?

Secret Service was shown to be completely incompetent. This is crazy… They didn’t even send a rep to the FBI press conference, the one female agent by the SUV couldn’t even holster her firearm. What a mess…

Media will generally deny information they want to suppress until it is either forgotten or impossible to suppress. If the latter happens, they report it and change their play book to “we always said that”.

Note that even one social media platform refusing to censor creates a serious problem for the censorship apparatus. There are 600 million people on X getting uncensored information. That’s why they are using the EU to go after X.

It is very important to vote for candidayes that support the 1st Amendment. It is key to maintaining any type of free country. The Founding Fathers knew what they were doing. I believe that both Trump and RFK would protect the First Amendment.

“I believe that God spared him, and that bullet went just apparently a millimeter from doing real and permanent damage to him or perhaps taking his life. And it’s just kind of a surreal thing,” Mr. Johnson said.

House Speaker Mike Johnson urges U.S. to ‘turn the temperature down’

House Speaker Mike Johnson pledged Sunday a thorough investigation into the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump and urged all sides to “turn the temperature down in this country.”

“You have political opposition and political opponents, but we’re all Americans and we have to treat one another with dignity and respect,” Mr. Johnson, Louisiana Republican, told NBC News’ “Today.” “We can have heated political discourse and debates, but it shouldn’t be personal, and we shouldn’t be targeting people.”

Mr. Trump was struck on the right ear after shots rang out at his Saturday rally in Butler County, Pennsylvania. He survived and is reported by aides to be “fine.”

Judge tosses Trump documents case, ruling prosecutor unlawfully appointed

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A U.S. judge on Monday dismissed the criminal case accusing Donald Trump of illegally holding onto classified documents, dealing the former president another major legal victory as the Republican seeks a return to the White House.

Florida-based U.S. District Aileen Cannon, who was nominated by Trump, ruled that Special Counsel Jack Smith, who is leading the prosecution, was unlawfully appointed to his role and did not have the authority to bring the case.

It marked another blockbuster legal victory for Trump, following the July 1 U.S. Supreme Court ruling that as a former president he enjoyed immunity from prosecution for many of his actions in office.
