Former President Donald J. Trump says the latest man to try to assassinate him “believed the rhetoric of Biden and Harris, and he acted on it.” Ryan Routh, suspected of lying in wait for the America First leader with an AK-47-style rifle at the Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida, on Sunday, is a Democrat donor and regurgitated Biden and Harris’s rhetoric about the former president being a threat to democracy on social media. Pictures also show a truck at his address sported a ‘Biden-Harris’ sticker.
“Their rhetoric is causing me to be shot at, when I am the one who is going to save the country, and they are the ones that are destroying the country, both from the inside and out,” Trump said of the Democratic president and his deputy.
He highlighted comments from the pair casting him as a “threat to democracy” and themselves as “unity” leaders.
“They are the opposite. These are people that want to destroy our country,” Trump said, explaining: “It is called the enemy from within. They are the real threat.”
During the debate between Trump and Harris, the Vice President claimed there would be no “guardrails” restraining Trump if he is reelected and that “It’s up to the American people to stop him.”
“These are the things that dangerous fools like the shooter listen to. That is the rhetoric they listen to, and the same with the first one,” Trump said, referring to Thomas Crooks, who shot him through the ear in Butler, Pennsylvania.
“They use highly inflammatory language,” he added.

The son of the would-be assassin of former President Donald J. Trump says his Democrat donor father “wants to be a martyr to how broken and disassociated the process has become from the real problems and practical solutions, then that’s his choice.” Oran Routh, the son of Ryan Routh, also echoed his father’s hatred for the former president, stating that he “hates Trump like every reasonable person does.” Oran Routh added: “I don’t like Trump either.”
Yesterday, Ryan Routh, 58, attempted to assassinate former President Trump while he played a round of golf at the Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida.
“He’s my dad and all he’s had is couple traffic tickets, as far as I know. That’s crazy. I know my dad and love my dad, but that’s nothing like him,” Oran Routh said. The son of the would-be assassin added that he knew his father was traveling but did not realize he was in Florida: “He said he was at the beach, but I thought that meant the outer banks in Hawaii. I didn’t ask him for more information because we’ve had a falling out. We’ve grown apart.”
Disturbingly, Oran Routh appeared to defend his father’s alleged actions He said, “‘I hate this game every four years and think that we all do, and if my father wants to be a martyr to how broken and disassociated the process has become from the real problems and practical solutions, then that’s his choice.”
The National Pulse previously reported that Ryan Routh appears to have extensive ties to efforts aimed at recruiting foreign soldiers to fight for Ukraine. Additionally, the would-be assassin has expressed his support for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.

Low-paid migrants are costing taxpayers nearly $200,000 each by the time they reach retirement age in the United Kingdom, as they contribute far less than they receive in government services like healthcare. Losses reach over $650,000 each if they live to 80 years old, and well over $1 million if they live to 100.
The figures come from the United Kingdom’s Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR). They state that “average” British-born workers create a net surplus for the state of just under $370,000 by the time they retire. While skilled migrants can provide a boost to the British economy, low-skilled migrant workers account for as much as 60 percent of the total migrant workforce in Britain, according to the watchdog Migration Watch UK.
Notably, the OBR reached these conclusions despite loading the statistics in migrants’ favor, by treating British-born residents’ childhood education and healthcare as a debt but assuming the migrant workers would not have any dependants, such as children, jobless spouses, or elderly relatives.
Low-skilled migration could present the United Kingdom with long-term economic problems if over half of the migrants earn less than the average salary. Debt could expand to 350 percent of GDP by 2074.
The country is also dealing with the costs associated with illegal boat migrant arrivals, which cost millions of dollars daily.
According to another report, released earlier this month, migrants who do not work at all are costing British taxpayers billions per year. Government Office for National Statistics (ONS) data estimates that jobless migrants cost $11.1 billion annually.
When social services, healthcare, transport, and other factors are considered, the amount could rise to over $26.6 billion annually.

Yet another Western European country has announced a stricter migration policy, which will see one of the toughest asylum policies in this country’s history. The right-wing government in the Netherlands, which includes populist firebrand Geert Wilders and his Party for Freedom (PVV), will be enacting measures some of the strictest measures in the European Union (EU).
Marjolein Faber, a PVV member who serves as the Dutch migration and asylum minister, says the Netherlands will legally declare an asylum crisis and take emergency measures, including forced deportations and restrictions on family reunification, a.k.a. chain migration. “I’m aiming for the strictest asylum policy ever,” Faber said.
The country is also seeking an opt-out from EU migration and asylum policies, with Prime Minister Dick Schoof warning, “We cannot continue to bear the large influx of migrants to our country.”
The move comes as Germany’s far-left government announces it will suspend its participation in the EU’s open borders Schengen agreement and resume border controls. This follows a series of terrorist attacks and attempted attacks, including a mass stabbing in Solingen at a diversity festival that left three people dead. The attack was carried out by a Syrian failed asylum seeker who was supposed to be deported last year.
This measure is just one proposed by the German leftist government amid the surge in popularity of the anti-mass migration Alternative for Germany (AfD), formerly allied closely with Geert Wilders and the PVV in the EU.

A truck at the home of Ryan Routh, the suspect in the latest assassination attempt against former President Donald J. Trump, sports a ‘Biden-Harris’ bumper sticker. Federal Election Commission (FEC) records show Routh made over 19 donations to the Democratic Party in 2019 and 2020, and an X (formerly Twitter) account associated with him interacted with Joe Biden and Kamala Harris and repeated their strong anti-Trump rhetoric.
The truck sports a ‘Camp Box’ sticker, matching the name and address of a Hawaii business associated with Routh on his LinkedIn page. It can be seen in the background of a video shot by the Associated Press (AP), interviewing one of Routh’s neighbors.
The neighbor, identified as Christopher Tam, says their interactions with Routh were “very welcoming and kind,” and that the 58-year-old sometimes helped look after his wife during work absences. However, a former neighbor of Routh at a previous address in Greensboro, North Carolina, told FOX8 that “a lot of people were afraid of him back in the day.”
She said she would not have expected Routh to be involved in an assassination plot, however, explaining, “I didn’t think he would go that far. I knew he was a little cuckoo, but assassinating the President?”
Reports indicate Routh made it within 300 yards of President Trump at the Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida, on Sunday, armed with a scoped AK-47-style rifle. The effective range of the AK-47 is around 380 yards.
Secret Service agents opened fire on Routh after spotting him in a bush but did not strike him. He was able to escape in a nearby car. The Martin County Sheriff’s Office later found him and took him into custody.

Ryan Routh, the suspect in the latest attempted assassination of former President Donald J. Trump at the Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida, has donated to Democratic Party funding platform ActBlue at least 19 times, per Federal Election Commission (FEC) records. The string of small donations, starting in 2019, total over $140.
Reports suggest Routh made it within around 300 yards of the America First leader with a scoped AK-47-style rifle—and a GoPro video camera—before U.S. Secret Service (USSS) agents spotted him taking aim from some bushes. The AK-47’s effective range is around 380 yards, meaning that the USSS may have once again put the former president in a situation where only the incompetence of his attempted killer saved his life.
USSS agents opened fire on Routh but did not hit him, and he was able to flee the scene, getting into a blackcar and making his escape. It was the Martin County Sheriff’s Office that eventually took Routh into custody after receiving a picture of the getaway vehicle taken by an eyewitness.
Comments on social media attributed to Routh contain rhetoric identical to that of Kamala Harris and Joe Biden, suggesting Trump will put an end to democracy if he returns to the White House, raising questions about the extent to which Democrat rhetoric inspired the attack.

The man named by law enforcement sources as Donald Trump’s latest would-be assassin repeated rhetoric from Kamala Harris and Joe Biden claiming the America First leader is an existential threat to democracy, raising questions about the extent to which they inspired him. An X (formerly Twitter account) linked to suspect Ryan Routh, 58, posted in April: “DEMOCRACY is on the ballot, and we cannot lose. We cannot afford to fail.”
Both Biden and his vice president have been suggesting that Trump will end democracy if reelected for months. Harris posted that “Democracy is on the ballot” on July 2, alongside a picture of Trump with a misleading caption about him vowing to “be a dictator on day one.”
She made similar or identical claims on July 11, July 6, and June 21, adding, “[Democracy] is only as strong as our willingness to fight for it.”
In their recent debate, Harris escalated her anti-Trump rhetoric to a fever pitch, saying: “[U]nderstand the context in which this election in 2024 is taking place. The United States Supreme Court recently ruled that the former president would essentially be immune from any misconduct if he were to enter the White House again… Understand what it would mean if Donald Trump were back in the White House with no guardrails. Because certainly, we know now the court won’t stop him. We know J.D. Vance is not going to stop him. It’s up to the American people to stop him.”
Trump responded, “I probably took a bullet to the head because of the things that they say about me,” referring to the previous attempt on his life in Butler, Pennsylvania.
“They talk about democracy; I’m a ‘threat to democracy.’ They’re the threat to democracy,” he said.

Ryan Routh, a 58-year-old man living in Hawaii, has been identified as the would-be assassin who targeted former President Donald J. Trump as he played a round of golf on Sunday at the Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida. The suspect, currently in the custody of law enforcement, had an extensive social media presence almost entirely focused on support for the Ukrainian war effort and opposition to Israel.
The would-be assassin appears to have been deeply involved with efforts to send Afghanistan military veterans, who fled the country after the Taliban retook power, to Ukraine to bolster the Eastern European nation’s efforts to halt the Russian invasion.
According to his social media and two 2023 interviews with Semafor and The New York Times, Routh ran the International Volunteer Center in Ukraine and spent a great deal of time in Kiev over the past several years.
“Most of the Ukrainian authorities do not want these soldiers,” Routh told Semafor last year. “I have had partners meeting with [Ukraine’s Ministry of Defense] every week and still have not been able to get them to agree to issue one single visa.”
FOREIGN TIES.
Even more concerning with respect to Routh’s foreign ties are the comments he made to the NYT. “We can probably purchase some passports through Pakistan, since it’s such a corrupt country,” he said regarding plans to move Afghan soldiers to Ukraine to join their fight.
Routh insinuated he’d move the soldiers to Iran and, from there, fly them to Ukraine.
In addition to organizing and encouraging volunteers to serve in the International Legion for Ukraine’s military, Routh appears to have engaged in efforts to lobby the United States Congress to increase foreign and military aid to the war-torn country.
Routh also appeared briefly in a propaganda video pushed by Ukaine’s neo-Nazi Azov Brigade.
The National Pulse has previously reported that there is strong evidence government agencies have maintained awareness of and even communicated with extremist political groups in America operating in Ukraine. It should be noted that the United States government claims to monitor Americans traveling to and from Ukraine closely.

In June 2022, Routh was interviewed by Newsweek Romania while in Ukraine. Allegedly a retired construction worker, he described in detail the logistical hurdles faced in recruiting foreign soldiers to fight against Russia in the country.
“This is about good versus evil,” Routh said, explaining that his initial goal was to serve among the foreign troops fighting for Ukraine. However, he states he was turned away and instead has focused on recruiting others to come and fight: “I think that everyone around the globe should be motivated to come here and support the Ukrainians and support the army no matter what gender, age, anything. Everybody should be here supporting the army.”

A record nine candidates have commenced a brief 15-day campaign to become the next leader of Japan’s ruling Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) and succeed Fumio Kishida as prime minister. The campaign period began on Thursday, aiming to restore public confidence after a scandal involving slush funds impacted intraparty groups.
The LDP is Japan’s major nationalist and conservative political party, once led by the late Shinzo Abe—a friend and political ally of former President Donald J. Trump. Abe was murdered by an assassin on July 8, 2022, while delivering a campaign speech in support of a fellow party member’s bid for a seat in the House of Councillors.
Due to the LDP’s dominance in Japanese politics, whichever candidate wins the party’s presidency will likely assume office as the country’s prime minister on October 1. The LDP and its coalition partner, Komeito, currently hold approximately 60 percent of the seats in the National Diet (the legislature comprising both the lower and upper house).
THE CANDIDATES.
Among the contenders are two candidates in their 40s and two women vying to be Japan’s first female prime minister. Four of the nine candidates currently serve in the Cabinet. Former Defense Minister Shigeru Ishiba emphasized transparency and public trust in politics during a televised joint appearance with other candidates.
Shigeru Ishiba, 67, making his fifth attempt at LDP leadership, described it as the culmination of his extensive career. Shinjiro Koizumi, 43, seeks to continue his reformer father’s legacy despite questions about his experience. Digital Minister Taro Kono, 61, the early Cabinet member to announce his candidacy, targets global security issues. Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshimasa Hayashi, 63, is known for his diverse expertise.
Foreign Minister Yoko Kamikawa, 71, is one of the two female candidates and has gathered the required support from 20 lawmakers. Economic security minister Sanae Takaichi, 63, aligns herself with the late Prime Minister Shinzo Abe’s vision.
Former economic security minister Takayuki Kobayashi, 49, and ex-health minister Katsunobu Kato, 68, are new entrants to the race. LDP Secretary General Toshimitsu Motegi, 68, challenges the government’s tax policy and proposes alternative funding for defense spending increases.
If no candidate secures a majority of the 734 votes in the initial count, the election will move to a runoff between the top two candidates, with votes reallocated to Japan’s 47 prefectures and LDP lawmakers.

Hunter Biden’s former business associate, best friend, and frequent Capitol Hill hearing witness, Devon Archer, has stepped across the partisan aisle to support former President Donald J. Trump in November’s election. Ventura County Republican Party committeewoman Lori Mills posted a photo of Archer at a Beverly Hills, California fundraiser for the Trump campaign Thursday evening on X (formerly Twitter).
Great time tonight at President Trumps Fundraiser in Beverly Hills! Did you know Hunter Biden’s old business partner is now MAGA? Can’t blame him! pic.twitter.com/7NuetutcVF
Over the past two years, Archer has appeared before several House of Representatives committees during a Congressional investigation into the Biden family’s business interests. Archer has previously testified Hunter Biden would put his father, then-Vice President Joe Biden, on the phone during business meetings with some regularity, and there is suspicion the elder Biden used his political influence to protect his son’s business interests in Ukraine.
Additionally, a trove of documents supplied by Archer revealed the Federal Bureau of Investigation was aware in 2016 of Hunter Biden and his associates’ intentions to establish a new business venture in Liechtenstein. Hunter, at the time, was still serving on Burisma’s board, and the move raised additional concerns about compliance with the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA).
Archer is a key figure in the Biden family corruption investigation and impeachment inquiry. Formerly a close friend of Hunter Biden, both men played critical roles in Burisma’s Ukrainian energy business and served on the company’s board. Despite Archer and others’ testimony, the review of thousands of documents, and the release of a final impeachment inquiry report in August, the House of Representatives has yet to formally move against Joe Biden, who they accuse of being at the center of the Biden family’s corrupt business dealings.
