THEY SENT HIM: The Third Attempt to Stop Trump

Another assassination attempt on President Trump is described after a 21-year-old man entered the secure grounds of Mar-a-Lago with a shotgun and a gasoline canister and was shot dead by the Secret Service.

This episode argues this is the third attempt in less than two years and links rising political violence to increasingly profane Democratic messaging and ads, citing remarks from Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and an Illinois Senate campaign ad.

Barbara Boyd discusses threats from Susan Rice and Jake Sullivan toward corporations and law firms, framing them as part of a broader “lawfare” and psychological campaign against Trump’s tariff-driven economic agenda.

She then focuses on the Supreme Court striking down Trump’s IEEPA tariffs, criticizes groups and amici opposing the tariffs, and highlights the administration's claims that tariffs will be reestablished under other authorities with revenue unchanged.

This episode closes by citing economic outcomes after one year: a reported 17% decline in the trade deficit, new factory investment, and expanded nuclear and advanced energy initiatives.

Snapshots and Notes

There was another assassination attempt on President Trump early Sunday morning.

He had two Secret Service agents on the detail, and went to that area to investigate.

“They confronted a white male (who) was carrying a gas can and a shotgun.

“He was ordered to drop those two pieces of equipment that he had with him, at which time he put down the gas can, raised the shotgun to a shooting position.

“At that time, the deputy and the two Secret Service agents fired their weapons and neutralized the threat.

“He was deceased at the scene.

A 21-year-old man drove through the gates of Mar-a-Lago with a shotgun and a canister of gasoline.

The Secret Service shot him dead.

This is a third attempt on the president’s life in less than two years, and the Sunday talk shows barely mentioned it.

If you’re vigilant, you were expecting something like this because over the last several months, Trump’s enemies on Wall Street and in the City of London have unleashed a massive psychological warfare campaign and a lawfare campaign to stop the tariffs, break the coalition that elected Trump, and remove him by any means necessary.

And right on cue, the globalist press is celebrating.

The Supreme Court struck down the president’s IEPA tariffs on Friday, and the economists immediately declared victory.

Susan Rice went on a podcast, threatening that every corporation and law firm that cooperated with the president will be punished when the Democrats return to power.

Full interview here - they do ugly very well (a copy of this video has been archived)…

When it comes to the elites, the corporate interests, the law firms, the universities, the media. I agree with you, Preet, it’s not going to end well for them.

“For those that decided that they would act in their perceived very narrow self-interest, which I would underscore is very short-term self-interest, and take a knee to Trump.

And it’s not just Rice.

Jake Sullivan, Obama, and Biden’s national security advisor, went to Capitol Hill in December and told Democratic leaders they need to, and this is a direct quote from NBC’s reporting,

Alter the cost-benefit analysis that companies are making when they work with the president.

In other words, investigate them and make them afraid to cooperate with Trump’s economic revolution.

They want you

  • demoralized.

  • to think the tariffs are dead.

  • to think the president is weakened and his enemies are closing in, and

  • the midterms, well, they’re already lost

Guess what? They’re wrong…

What Barbara Boyd is covering in this post…

Violence, Threats & Cornered Rats: The Democrats’ Last Stand (03:01)

The Democrats’ public language (rhetoric) on social media has become increasingly and repetitively violent.

It is designed to motivate the mentally unbalanced to do violence against the president and his family.

Here is Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent discussing this yesterday…

Maria: “WE HAD PLANNED TO HAVE YOU ON THIS PROGRAM TO DISCUSS TARIFFS, BUT LET ME FIRST BEGIN WITH YOUR REACTION.

“DO YOU KNOW IF PRESIDENT TRUMP WAS IN WASHINGTON AT 1.30 A.M. LAST NIGHT?

Bessent: “Good morning, Maria, and good to be with you.

“I just spoke with President Trump - he spent the night in D.C. (our note: he is not saying yes, he is not saying no)

“He was here for the national governors’ conference and gave a great speech to the governors last night.

“And, you know, Maria, I just want to say, why don’t we look back here and think, two would-be assassins dead, one in jail for life, and you know this venom is coming from the other side.

“Look at this terrible, profane Senate commercial in Illinois, I WOULD CALL FOR THEM TO TAKE THAT DOWN, TAKE THAT DOWN BECAUSE IT IS THAT KIND OF VENOM THAT WE DON’T KNOW WHETHER THIS PERSON WAS A MASTERMIND, UNHINGED, OR WHAT, BUT THEY ARE NORMALIZING THIS VIOLENCE. It’s gotta stop.

We are providing Rumble links to the video due to the vulgarity (even YT does not permit its publication)…

The ad Bessent is referencing comes from Illinois Lieutenant Governor, Julianna Stratton.

She’s running for U.S. Senate with the support of Governor Jay Pritzker.

It features elected Democrats, including Senator Tammy Duckworth, all angrily saying the F word followed by Trump’s name.

That is where the Democratic Party is right now.

Their language and ads mere manufactured social media outrage directed at young people about the Epstein file cover-up and other fake claims about Donald Trump.

The corporations the president needs to bring in line to rebuild our economy are being systematically derided as predatory billionaires and sexual perverts who need to be punished.

The public version of this campaign is a threat being made by Susan Rice and Jake Sullivan - and the Democrats’ 2026 midterm campaign strategy is centered on attacking, quote, billionaires who support Donald Trump.

Their plan is to erase from your memory, from public memory, the hell we have all lived through under them and to directly attack the gains Trump is making in the economy with destructive tactics like the current government shutdown.

Now, why would Sullivan and Rice be taking such an out front role?

Well, they don’t really have a choice.

They’re both probable targets in the Fort Pierce grand jury investigation into the Russiagate coup, which is going on right now.

DNI Tulsi Gabbard has declassified the evidence which shows a conscious criminal conspiracy to subvert a duly elected president coming from Obama’s Oval Office.…

Rice wrote a memo to herself on Inauguration Day in 2016, claiming the entire coup operation was, quote, by the book and perfectly legal.

Prosecutors call that ‘consciousness of guilt’ from a witness to the entire criminal Obama led coup.

Sullivan pushed the knowingly false Russia collusion hoax manufactured by the British to the FBI as Hillary Clinton’s senior foreign policy advisor.

Donald Trump is dismantling everything they built: the threats, the violent ads, the lawfare.

That is what cornered people do.

Here’s where it gets really interesting.

Obama’s globalist allies just took their fight to the Supreme Court of the United States, and they think they won.

You’re about to see how they lost, and the names on those briefs tell you everything about who destroyed this country and why they hate Trump’s tariffs.

The Supreme Court Trap: Who Filed Against Trump & Why (07:16)

No legal schmegle here about the Supreme Court decision, though other people like Coffee & COVID can do that.

It’s very narrow, and Trump has already moved past it and put the tariffs on a very sound legal footing.

You are about to read about what no one else is going to tell you.

What the plan was for using the tariff decision to crash the economy, how the president had office, and how briefs filed on the Supreme Court docket tell you who hates tariffs and why.

That could be the real story here.

Let’s watch how some of the City of London and Wall Street free traders bamboozled Maria Bartiromo yesterday in their attempt to crash the economy and how Scott Bessent shredded them.

Maria: “IT’S WORTH NOTING THAT THIS RULING WILL ALSO HAVE A PROFOUND IMPACT ON AMERICA’S FISCAL POSITION.

THE COMMITTEE FOR A RESPONSIBLE BUDGET, THE PRESIDENT, MAYA MACGUINEAS, TOLD ME THAT THE SUPREME COURT RULING WILL CUT REVENUE BY $1.9 TRILLION THROUGH FISCAL 2036.

“IT WILL INCREASE DEBT BY $2.4 TRILLION OVER THE SAME PERIOD, DEBT COULD NOW RISE TO 125% OF GDP, WITH DEFICITS RISING TO MORE THAN 7% OF GDP.

“IT’S WORTH NOTING THIS SCOTUS IMPACT ON U.S. DEBT.

“DO YOU BELIEVE THAT THE PRESIDENT’S ACTIONS TO COME UP WITH TARIFFS UNDER A DIFFERENT AUTHORITY WILL, IN FACT, REPLACE ALL OF THE REVENUE LOST FROM THIS RULING?”

Bessent: “I WANT TO TAKE A STEP BACK HERE.

“MAYA MCGINNIS SHOULD BE ASHAMED.

“THEY SHOULD TAKE THE WORD RESPONSIBLE OUT OF HER ORGANIZATION’S NAME.

“EVERYTHING SHE TOLD YOU WAS COMPLETELY IRRESPONSIBLE.

“WHERE WERE THEY WHEN THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION BLEW OUT THE DEFICIT THAT WE HAD A FISCAL CONTRACTION LAST YEAR?

“SHE SHOULD BE ASHAMED.

Full interview between Maria Bartaromo and Scott Bessent here…

Who exactly is the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget?

Well, that Washington Swamp Group is an offshoot of the Peter Peterson Foundation.

Who was Peter Peterson?

He succeeded David Rockefeller as chairman of the Council of Foreign Relations, the City of London’s front in the United States, and he continued the CFR’s deliberate and shocking policy of controlled

disintegration of our economy.

They launched it in 1975 on behalf of Wall Street and the City of London.

We covered that in depth last week.

Now, the amicus curiae, or friend of the court, briefs against Trump’s tariffs are a veritable who’s who of the people who outsourced our industrial base and destroyed our economy.

The US Chamber of Commerce led the fight.

It is the largest lobbying group in the country, and it led the fights with China’s WTO entry, most-favored-nation status, NAFTA, and the Trans-Pacific Partnership.

It lavishes money on any Republican carrying its globalist agenda.

I note that Chief Justice John Roberts was the Chamber’s lawyer in private practice.

That’s pretty interesting.

The Chamber led the campaign for his court nomination.

Now, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce might seem to be something from your own backyard, like when local businesses get together in a Chamber of Commerce and collaborate.

It’s anything but that - the Chamber is backed by the intelligence community through its participation in the Center for International Private Enterprise at the National Endowment for Democracy (NED).

That’s the CIA’s regime change operation.

The so-called economist's brief filed in this case was even more revealing.

It was signed by former Fed chairs Bernanke and Janet Yellen, the very people who bailed out the world speculators in 2008 on the backs of our working class and built much of our present federal debt.

They said there was no economic emergency when Trump came into office and invoked emergency powers.

You heard that right.

No emergency, after Joe Biden ran up $8 trillion in new deficits, fentanyl killed over 100,000 Americans a year, and millions of unvetted, illegal immigrants flooded the country.

Trump has put the prosperity of workers and the middle class right back at the center of his America First agenda.

And they want their system back.

We’re determined not to let them have it.

The Revolution They Can’t Reverse: One Year of Results (11:42)

Trade administrator Jameson Greer explained yesterday why Trump used emergency powers to enact tariffs, even when he knew they’d be challenged in court.

“Coming into this administration, the president detected immediately that there was an emergency.

“The trade deficit which is more stuff coming in from overseas versus being made here.

“That trade deficit blew up by 40% under Biden, so we took emergency action.

“Immediately, all of our trade partners around the world came to the table to negotiate market opening deals with us, and we protected our industries right away.

“So it’s exactly the right thing to do.

“In the wake of this case, we can use other authorities that are, frankly, very sound and very strong.

“So we’re very confident that we’ll be able to continue reconstructing this program.

There was a real emergency, and Trump needed to jump-start his economic revolution well ahead of the midterms.

Here’s the masterstroke…

In the eight months the court took to decide,
The work was already getting done.
Countries were coerced into trade deals.
Manufacturers began reshoring.
Plan B was already in place.

Here’s Scott Bessent yesterday (Feb 22)…

So let me tell you what’s going to happen.

“First, this ruling was a very narrow ruling in terms of the president’s ability to use IEPA to collect revenues.

“The Supreme Court said the president can put in a full embargo, but he cannot collect one dollar.

“So the president still has the most draconian measure for negotiations, and that Under sections 232, sections 301, we’re already collecting substantial tariff revenue.

“The IEPA tariffs are going to be replaced in three days with the Section 122.

“And I can tell you at Treasury, contrary to what the Committee for an Irresponsible Budget or whatever it’s called says, tariff revenue will be unchanged this year and will be unchanged in the future.

Full interview between Maria Bartaromo and Scott Bessent here…

The results after one year are truly remarkable…

  • The Bureau of Economic Analysis reports a 17 percent decline in the trade deficit

  • Billions in new factory investments are here, and a nuclear renaissance is underway

  • The Department of Energy is building innovation campuses for modular reactors and fusion power, the revolutionary, unlimited energy source of the future.

Summary

So let’s bring it together.

  • Democrats are escalating

  • Violent rhetoric and two former national security advisors are threatening American corporations because they’re making their last stand for the upcoming midterms.

  • The globalist establishment threw everything at the Supreme Court, the Chamber, former Fed chairs, exiled intelligence officials, and the result puts Trump’s revolution on former ground, not weaker.

Now their arguments are exposed.

And in the real economy, the American system is working.

  • The trade deficit is falling.

  • The factories are coming home.
