Today’s show opens with yet more revelations about the abject failures of the US Secret Service in the shooting of Donald Trump on Saturday in Butler, PA. According to Senators on a call with USSS, the shooter was listed as a threat a full 10 minutes before Donald Trump walked on stage. How was that even allowed to happen?

And, to add even more confusion, a story in the NY Post suggests the shooter had a bicycle at the scene he was using to ride around the look at locations around the event. So, did he bring his bike on the back of the car that he supposedly had rigged with explosives?

Then the FBI said they found a message he left on the Steam gaming platform that July 13 was going to be his day. They also said he had a second cell phone with just over two dozen contacts. He may have also used other forms of encrypted communication.

The Butler Township Commissioner, Edward Natali, said on social media that the local police had no security detail for former President Donald Trump’s rally. He said they only provided seven officers for traffic support. So, someone is definitely lying about the open rooftop, used by the shooter, was supposed to be staffed by a local police sniper team. Is it the locals or is it Director Kim Cheatle?

To illustrate all of the issues I detailed yesterday, I stumbled on a satirical response to all of this from Joseph Mallozzi who is a showrunner, Executive Producer and writer for Dark Matter, Stargate: SG-1, Stargate: Atlantis and Stargate: Universe. He reacts to all we’ve learned thus far as if was the first draft of a techo-thriller being submitted to Netflix.

Earlier in the day, Biden said in a BET interview that if he were diagnosed with some serious medical issue, he would consider dropping out of the race. Then, yesterday evening, we hear he tested positive for Covid and is taking the next four days off. Yet, his flight path was cleared for all four day well in advance of the Covid announcement. Maybe he has some other decisions to make?

Joy Reid, along with Jen Psaki, made fools of themselves by suggesting that if Biden recovers from his Covid illness, he should project as much strength as Trump did by bouncing back from being shot. What imbeciles.

Biden is getting angrier and more unhinged. More Democrats are pushing for him to drop.

Time Magazine, at the behest of a push from Legacy/mainstream media voices, has changed it’s upcoming cover. It was going to use the iconic picture taken of Trump with his fist in the air. But, media thinks that would be positive PR for Trump, so they changed it to an abandoned and littered event venue, all in black and white save for the flag.

At the RNC day three, former acting ICE Director Tom Homan made an interesting comment. He warned the drug cartels that Trump is going to label them as terrorist organizations and will wipe them off the face of the Earth.

David Urban on CNN said it is unforgivable that Joe Biden never met with the 13 Gold Star families from his disastrous Afghanistan retreat. To go with that, we have a soundbite from one of the parents, Christy Shamblin.

Finally, we close on the most ridiculous moment of the day. MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow concludes that fans of The Lord of the Rings are far-right/alt-right fascists and neo-Nazis. That’s how far gone Mad Cow’s brains really are.
