There are nearly 20 million AR/SKS/AK style rifles in the United States. Approximately 10% are SKS style. The SKS was designed for the Russian military by Sergei Gavrilovich Simonov. The SKS and various upgrades is commonly in use in Eastern Europe and the mid and far East.
The SKS is semi-automatic has an effective range of over 400 yards. With a scope, improved ammunition, and barrel modifications that range can potentially double. Donald Trump was within the range of this weapon for an assassination attempt.
The specific SKS found at the scene of the second potential assassination had its serial number filed off. If the serial numbers can be recovered, the date and place of manufacture as well as purchase history of the specific weapon can be discovered. In addition, the barrel, ammunition and scope may also reveal part of the purchase or modification history. The question here is why file off the serial number?
With the first assassination attempt by Thomas Crooks, the information seems to have led to a dead end. The implications are that there is a foreign connection hidden by encryption. So far, the encryption has either baffled the FBI or the recovered information is so damning as to prevent release. The question of actual international connections remain.
With the second assassination attempt by Ryan Routh, the information seems to be in plain sight with an SKS somehow finding its way into the potential assassin’s hands. Notably, this individual is a felon and should not have been able to purchase any SKS/AR/AK style weapon.
How did Routh get this rifle and from whom? Issues of when, where and what are still to be determined and will likely involve the use of computer tracing and de-encryption techniques.
One key question: Was the weapon prepositioned at some earlier time or brought in by Routh who spent 11 hours waiting for Trump to pass by while golfing?
The Governor of Florida, Ron deSantis, has stated that Florida will conduct its own investigation of events. The FBI, Secret Service, CIA and Department of Homeland Security are not trusted to do a thorough and impartial investigation. It is tragic that these federal agencies and departments have been politicized and weaponized against Trump and Republicans.
The list of foreign supporters of Routh is long. At the top appears to be Ukraine, but you can’t rule out Iran or its terrorist proxies. Our presumed NATO allies can’t be ruled out either because Trump forced them to commit more resources to the common Western European defense. It there is foreign involvement it could very well involve the CIA as a go between.
Will there be more assassination attempts against Trump? It is unrealistic to think that this is the end – and, if he wins the presidential election, that will add at least four more years for the anti-Trump forces to plot ever more assassination attempts.
May God continue to protect Donald Trump.

Trump may have been the victim of a chemical or laser attack at his Tucson Arizona rally. A section of his supporters, behind and to his left experienced eye problems, some severe but not permanent apparently. Upwards of 20 people affected and some had to go to hospital or ER for treatment.
Matt Gaetz says there are five assassination teams trying to kill Trump. Three are foreign – Pakistani, Iran, and Ukraine, and two are domestic.
W,
Yes they will continue to come after Trump and Americans.
Just yesterday we seen Bob Goode in a press conference at the Capitol denouncing the world health organization. Biden and Harris are about to give up our sovereignty to an unelected global organization. Our Representatives have been feeding at the trough at the expensive of American taxpayer & consumer, now it’s going global.
Billions & Trillions are made to be gained by these UN Americans.
This is an election between Pro American (Trump&Republicans) & UN American 🇺🇳 🇨🇳 (Harris&Democrats)
Trump
2024
Global socialism is a fundamental evil that has fully taken over the Democrat Party. Harris and Walz are both communists and have been installed to advance the global socialist agenda. The likelihood of Trump winning is not good because the election-steal machinery is still largely in place.
Yes.
IMO, the phony msm articles and media segments, including the frauds at Fox, declaring the closeness of the race, have been incrementally ramping up for the last couple of months.
Why?
To prepare the American sheeple for the steal.
Where did the rifle come from?
Oh, maybe the Ukraine; how about Iran? No no, NATO, that’s it.
You Bull Elephant types make me laugh. Most of y’all still believe this government is on the level.
The Deep State provided the weapon; the CIA, FBI, Homeland Security, or Secret Service; take your pick.
That’s two assassination attempts SO FAR.
Stop ignoring the 800 pound gorilla in the room.
Wake up sheeple.
That is exactly why deSantis is taking charge of the investigation, he trusts no federal agency.
I truly hope there is a no holds barred investigation, and ALL OF IT is reported.
That remains to be seen.
God’s speed to DeSantis.
Mark Steyn said it plainly. “They want him dead.” They will not give up. Another aspect of this could be a concerted effort to drive him into hiding, crippling his ability to campaign effectively. Either way they win.
Last Friday, Trump was campaigning in California. Today, Trump is campaigning in Long Island NY. No Republican running for president can win either California or New York. Just as no Democrat can win in West Virginia or Alabama running for president. The swing states are really all that matters now. So, please tell us why Trump wasting his time in states that Republican’s cannot win? You think Kamala is in Alabama or West Virginia today? NOPE!
The web is everywhere.
