Failed Trump Assassin Had A List Of Everywhere Trump Would Be August To October

.....Routh’s apparent knowledge of intimate details of Trump’s schedule has led many to question where he got it from, with Rep. Eli Crane even suggesting there could be a mole within the Secret Service who is intent on seeing Trump killed.

....It also emerged that Routh weirdly wrote a letter addressed “Dear world” outlining how he had tried to assassinate Trump, but had failed. Within the letter he offers $150,000 to anyone who can finish the job. DOJ released the letter to the public.

..... Images of the letter are now all over the internet.
Ryan Routh failed to assassinate President Donald Trump.

Routh is now offering a $150,000 bounty for whomever kills President Trump.

The DOJ released the letter.

Why would the DOJ publicly release this letter?

I have an idea--they're all in on it.

They all want him dead.… pic.twitter.com/UCmI9PuZMJ

....The immediate question arising from this is why has the DOJ made public, in open court with no redactions, a direct call from a violent lunatic to target Trump for yet another assassination attempt?

^^^^^ Let's see if I am reading this correctly. Did Routh try to assassinate Trump previously to his latest attempt and failed? Then he offered $150,000 to anyone who succeeds. Then he tried again and obviously failed? Just trying to make sense all of this.

He wrote the letter and had it with him when he tried to kill trump. If he failed, the letter would be found. If he succeeded and lived, he could throw away the letter. If he succeeded and was killed, it doesn't matter because he succeeded.

Not what I'm reading..


.....The DOJ submitted the letter—which months before the alleged assassination attempt was left with an individual who contacted law enforcement after learning that Ryan Routh was the suspect

..... The handwritten letter allegedly describing Routh’s plans was placed in a box that he dropped off months earlier at the home of an unidentified person who did not open it until after last Sunday’s arrest, prosecutors said. The box also contained ammunition, a metal pipe, building materials, tools, phones, and various letters. The person who received the box and contacted law enforcement was not identified in the DOJ’s detention memo and was described only as a “civilian witness.

......Barr told Fox News on Monday, however, that the DOJ should not have released the note because it contained a claim from Routh that he would offer a large sum of cash if he failed in his attempt.
“The letter ... attempts to rouse people in incendiary terms” to take action against Trump, Barr said.
“There was no apparent justification for releasing this information at this stage.
“It served no purpose other than to risk inciting further violence.”

It is a fail-safe mechanism. It is common for operatives to use such devices. They usually have something written, along with physical evidence, that will incriminate a subject. This is known as the 'package'. If that operative is killed, then the items are released to the proper media for publication. It works as long as the operative lets the subject know that the package is staged and the subject does not know how the package will be put into play. It is kind of a mutually assured destruction.

I think Routh used this method in attempt to get Trump killed if he failed to succeed. The letter was the package and his friend was instructed to only open and release it if Routh was killed or arrested.

The most telling of this is that the government published it, almost immediately, it with no redactions. Unlike everything else having to do with Trump where they drag their feet and heavily redact documents before giving them up.

So yes, our Secret Service is complicit in an attempt to assassinate a former President and current Candidate.

Let that sink in

Damning Senate Report On Massive Secret Service Failures

.....The FBI’s non-response to inquiries from the USSS Pittsburgh Office on July 10th - three days before the rally has also not been explained - despite the FBI’s July 12th arrest of Asif Merchant, “a Pakistan national with ties to Iran, [for] plotting to commit murder-for-hire” of U.S. government officials. Moreover, there has been no explanation for why USSS headquarters told the SS intelligence agent on the day of the rally that no adverse intelligence had been developed concerning the visit when the SS Lead Advance Agent had been told exactly the opposite on July 10th.

The level of incompetence by the USSS, the Advance Lead Agent along with the deafening silence from the FBI appears to be so great, so totally overwhelming, that it would appear that the only way it could actually be accomplished is through careful planning. This is a damning report - and one that we’re still wading through. We expect more damning revelations will be forthcoming.
Planned incompetence. Dangerous times.
