“After lengthy deliberation and thought, and considering the tremendous talents of many others, I have decided that the person best suited to assume the position of Vice President of the United States is Senator J.D. Vance of the Great State of Ohio,” Trump declared on Truth Social around 2PM Monday, just days after the former president survived an assassination attempt.
Trump continued: “J.D. honorably served our Country in the Marine Corps, graduated from Ohio State University in two years, Summa Cum Laude, and is a Yale Law School Graduate, where he was Editor of The Yale Law Journal, and President of the Yale Law Veterans Association.”
J.D.’s book, “Hillbilly Elegy,” became a Major Best Seller and Movie, as it championed the hardworking men and women of our Country. J.D. has had a very successful business career in Technology and Finance, and now, during the Campaign, will be strongly focused on the people he fought so brilliantly for, the American Workers and Farmers in Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, Ohio, Minnesota, and far beyond….
….As Vice President, J.D. will continue to fight for our Constitution, stand with our Troops, and will do everything he can to help me MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN. Congratulations to Senator J.D. Vance, his wife, Usha, who also graduated from Yale Law School, and their three beautiful children. MAGA2024!
X Boss Elon Musk immediately expressed his support of Trump’s decision.
Congratulations @JDVance1!
Excellent decision by @realDonaldTrump.— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) July 15, 2024

Watch: Liberal Hopes 100 More Trump Assassins Will ‘Try To Not Miss,’ Says ‘A Billion Other People Feel The Same Way As I Do’
Popular YouTuber James Klüg posted a man-on-the-street video interview he filmed in the aftermath of Saturday’s attempted assassination of Donald Trump where one deranged leftist said he supports more Americans trying to take out the 45th President.
Asked for his thoughts on the shooting, the random citizen said, “They missed. He should have died. He’s not good for this country and he never will be.”
Deranged Liberal: “Since he missed, I can guarantee there’s going to be 100 people that are going to try to not miss.”
— James Klüg (@realJamesKlug) July 15, 2024
Me: Would you support that?
Deranged Liberal: “Yeah. 100%”
These people are not well. pic.twitter.com/gLsSWksZA1
“So, you’re disappointed that the shooter missed Donald Trump?” Klüg asked.
“Yeah, a hundred percent,” the man answered.
When he was asked if the shooting was justified, the interviewee explained, “I’m sure in his eyes it was. But, you know what? Since he missed, I can guarantee you there’s gonna be a hundred people that are gonna try to not miss.”
“Would you support that?” asked Klüg, with the Trump Derangement Syndrome-suffering man responding, “Yeah, one hundred percent. He doesn’t need to live. He doesn’t need to be a president.”
The guy noted Trump’s “grab them by the pussy” remark was one key reason he hates the GOP presidential frontrunner.
Klüg said the man’s comments were “shocking,” and the leftist replied, “I know it’s not shocking because there’s a billion other people that feel the same way that I do.”
The interview is a perfect example of how mainstream media and Democrat Party propaganda has radicalized and brainwashed millions of Americans into supporting political violence in the name of stopping Donald Trump and his supporters.
Sadly, the man is probably correct in predicting copycats will try to finish the job.
MSNBC Pulls ‘Morning Joe’ Off Air In Response To Trump Assassination Attempt
MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” program did not air on Monday due to the network reportedly fearing the show’s hosts or guests might say something disrespectful about Saturday’s attempted assassination of Donald Trump.
According to CNN, an MSNBC source revealed the decision was directly due to network higher-ups fearing someone on the show “might make an inappropriate comment on live television that could be used to assail the program and network as a whole.”
It’s a huge day in politics and MSNBC has pulled ‘Morning Joe’ off the air. They’re apparently worried the MJ crew might say something ‘inappropriate’ about the Trump assassination attempt. From CNN: https://t.co/uK3u0ZIoU9 pic.twitter.com/AS8E4b5FdQ

NBCUniversal News Group Chairman Cesar Conde and MSNBC President Rashida Jones made a joint call to yank “Morning Joe” for the day.
It’s pathetic that the show’s hosts Mika and Joe Scarborough couldn’t be trusted to restrain themselves from making rude or divisive remarks about the attempt on Trump’s life.
Check out some internet reactions below where many people pointed out the top morning news program was removed during what would have been one of their biggest news days of all time.
Stunning. On this uniquely impactful morning, #MSNBC pulls its signature show #MorningJoe, for fear that some jackwagon panelist would say something grotesquely inappropriate. Profoundly pathetic… and probably a wise move on their part. pic.twitter.com/JqqDSGfz9f

Biggest Monday in @JoeNBC’s TV career and @MSNBC pulled his show off the air because they’re afraid of what the hosts or guests might say about the Trump assassination. Damn. I’d quit if any of my bosses tried this. But I’m not a little bitch. Morning, Joe!

.@NBCNews taking Morning Joe and @NicolleDWallace off air in a historic moment as Republicans prepare to nominate Donald Trump is an explicit admission that these are not news programs.

It’s outrage porn that NBC can no longer rely upon for publishable content in this moment in…
MSNBC is telling us that on one of the most important news days in US politics Morning Joe can’t be trusted

Trump Calls for Robert Kennedy Jr. to Receive Secret Service Protection IMMEDIATELY After Botched Assassination Attempt
Just days after surviving an assassination attempt, former President Donald Trump says independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, who’s had two relatives in politics assassinated, should also receive Secret Service protection.
“In light of what is going on in the world today, I believe it is imperative that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. receive Secret Service protection — immediately,” Trump wrote on Truth Social Monday.
“Given the history of the Kennedy Family, this is the obvious right thing to do!” he added.
Trump was referring to the assassinations of Kennedy’s father US Sen. Robert F. Kennedy, who was killed on June 4, 1968 after winning the California Democrat primary, and his uncle US President John F. Kennedy, who was killed in his motorcade during a parade in Dallas, Texas.
Since the start of his campaign last year, Kennedy has argued he should be afforded Secret Service protection, however, US law only requires “major” presidential candidates and their spouses receive protection “within 120 days of a general presidential election.”
Since the assassination of my father in 1968, candidates for president are provided Secret Service protection. But not me.
— Robert F. Kennedy Jr (@RobertKennedyJr) July 28, 2023
Typical turnaround time for pro forma protection requests from presidential candidates is 14-days. After 88-days of no response and after several…
“As defined in statute, the term ‘major presidential and vice presidential candidates’ means those individuals identified as such by the Secretary of Homeland Security after consultation with an advisory committee,” the Secret Service’s FAQ states.
A NY Times/Siena poll on Monday showed Trump beating Biden 42-40, with Kennedy receiving 7 percent.
The call for protection for RFK comes as the US Secret Service came under scrutiny following a lapse in security protocols over the weekend that allowed a shooter to get within yards of Trump and take several shots.
Ron Paul: 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.

‘Don’t Miss Trump Next Time,’ Tenacious D Member Wishes During On-Stage Birthday Celebration
A member of acoustic rock duo Tenacious D wished death on presumptive GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump during a concert Sunday following a failed assassination attempt.
Performing in Sydney, Australia, on Sunday, the band held a special birthday celebration on-stage for Kyle Gass where a giant robot presented him a cake, while counterpart Jack Black told him to “Make a wish.”
“Don’t miss Trump next time,” replied Gass, sending gasps and laughter throughout the crowd.

It’s unclear if Gass’ comments will necessitate a US Secret Service visit to gauge whether the remarks could inspire potential violence from others.
Gass’ obscene birthday wish, essentially urging a future assassin to shoot Trump fatally, comes as Trump’s head was grazed by a would-be assassin’s bullet during a rally Saturday in Butler, Penn.
Black appeared at a star-studded fundraising event for Democrat President Joe Biden’s re-election bid in Los Angeles last month, joined by Jimmy Kimmel, George Clooney, Julia Roberts and Barack Obama.
