A “Warren Report” Isn’t Going to Fly In 2024
Townhall July 24, 2024 American Thinker July 24, 2024
Everybody knows that the “lone gunman” is dead, but the controversy surrounding the theory that Thomas Matthew Crooks was a “lone gunman” is not.
Many feel entirely justified to continue exploring whether others had to be involved in this operation for it to unfold in the way it did.
Monday morning, Secret Service Director Cheatle studiously avoided answering any questions members of Congress were asking to help bring forth truth and transparency to the public, and in response to Cheatle’s non-responses, Rep. Anna Paulina Luna tweeted out the following:
“After leaving the oversight briefing this morning, I’m more convinced than ever that Crooks wasn’t working alone.”
At this point, the American public should not naively accept that a 20-year-old was acting alone any more than we should hold to any belief in the veracity of the Warren Report, which was issued by our government to intentionally deceive Americans into believing for decades that Lee Harvey Oswald was just an aberrant communist lone wolf who was just lucky to have shot three bullets into a U.S. President's head and neck from three different directions.
Today, this issue restated is whether Crooks, like Oswald, was a disposable patsy set up by others to take the fall and thereby cloak the evil conspiracy and identity of the real conspirators. Conspirators who, understandably, would be highly motivated to do their best to remain hidden in the shadows. If so, it is worth considering whether the narrative they must offer the public would have to focus on the single fall guy they planned in advance to dispatch with extreme prejudice and then, once silenced, to use him as a tool to divert the public’s attention away from their involvement in the assassination they attempted.
That said, the public should be slow to form conclusions and remain relentless in their pursuit of the real truth. We need to question the tidbits being released — i.e. leaked — by our two-tiered justice system’s investigators who, for the time being, seem to be supporting the notion that Crooks was a single shooter operating on his own and who, with the luck of a Lee Harvey Oswald, somehow fortuitously found himself able to place himself all alone on a roof with a loaded rifle 164 yards from President Trump.
But, now for the good news.
Unlike when JFK was assassinated, when such a public event like the attempted assassination of a president occurs today, forensic evidence abounds. Videos and audios from every conceivable perspective are almost certain to have been recorded on a host of cell phones in the hands of a multitude of ordinary private citizens. And, in turn, because most of this evidence is likely to be revealed in due time to the public at large on the internet, it is sure to be analyzed by thousands of people across America with inquiring minds and many varied investigative talents, but with no ties to the government.
For instance, consider just one of these independent analysts — Chris Martenson, Ph.D. — who examined audio recordings of the shots fired that day. If you are interested, listen here to the evidence he offers to support his finding that not one, but a least two shooters, and perhaps three, were involved that day in the attempted assassination of President Trump.
Whether you agree with Dr. Martenson or not, is not the point.
The important point is that, at minimum, independent analysis like his only adds to the mix of information that is now available to all of us from independent sources for our further evaluation in real time. In turn, it illustrates that we are no longer solely dependent on our government to arrive at what they eventually want to tell us is the truth — i.e. the same government which, for reasons of its own, very well could be more inclined to withhold such information if it would damage their intended narrative. Moreover, we are now allowed to further explore on our own issues like whether or not the F.B.I. has not also made such an analysis of the same audio of the shots fired, because — to further wonder out loud — if they have, one may reasonably ask, why haven’t they come out with a statement that either corroborates or debunks Dr. Martenson’s analysis? Either way, does not their silence on the subject, at minimum, strongly suggest the possibility that some kind of “coverup” on their part is going on? And, if so, a coverup of exactly what? Which, in turn, will be yet another trail of investigation upon which our cadre of independent forensic experts and citizen journalists will likely be free to pursue with justified vigor.
In other words, in today’s age of free information flow, evidence sharing, independent research and social media warriors — e.g. the Laura Loomers, Tucker Carlsons, Karli Bonees, Garrett Zieglers, Lara Logans, Alex Jones’, Sean Davis’, Andy Ngos and the many hundreds of others like them operating in today’s internet-connected world of unlimited files, databases and untold other resources — it is unlikely this time around that our government will be able to get by with trying to cloak the real truth by trying to pass off to the public — via the fake news outlets they control — a 2024 iteration of the fraudulent Warren Report.
For both President Trump and the rest of us who would like to see America be given at least one more chance to become great again, that could very well be good news indeed.
But for some deep-state operatives within the Biden Administration, perhaps not so much.
