The attempted assassination of Trump should be a moment when the Earth should stop spinning. For America to get back to work as usual in the midst of this type of cynical political malevolence is just utterly obscene. 

My 80-year-old Aunt tells me that even in Edmonton, Canada, when J.F. Kennedy was shot when she was a girl, schools there were paused and the movement of the natural rhythms of society halted in horror… marking the moment that something was very rotten in Denmark. A political tragedy.

Society is waaaay more cynical now, damn it. 

Here are six shows from NZ’s most successful, maverick media channel, marking this portentous moment in Western history with the attention it well deserves.

First up is the magnificent Perigo’s Perspective, where political broadcasting meets high art: convicted, properly incendiary and true:

Perigo’s Perspective: Will the Swamp Stop at Nothing to Stop Trump?

Next is the gentleman Rodney Hide, a quiet walk-through of events from his observant perspective with his own reflections: 

The Attempted Assassination of Donald Trump: What Brought Us to This?

Cam Slater and The Crunch with Olivia’s View came next (Cam’s ‘buddies’ also talk about the topic in hand, and I recommend listening to his whole show): I mention the ghastly term “stochastic terrorism” — a Leftist clunky term that they use to radicalise hate against conservatives while complaining it is happening to them. Evil liars.  A patsy may well be in play, meanwhile, Dems push the lone-wolf theory. Yeah, right. Either way, the hit on Trump was an inside job.

Olivia’s View on The Crunch: The Attempted Assassination of President Trump 

The Political Agenda panel with Paul Brennan, Cam Slater, Glenn Inwood and me, nice and contentious because I can get a tad testy in defence of my values, but this is why the whole channel exists. Proper debate!

​A Political Agenda: Political Panel for 19th July 2024

The bombproof Dieuwe de Boer and William McGimpsey cover this also, William too mentions the Leftist bastardised term “stochastic terrorism”. (If Trump wins, watch this term come to the fore to thoroughly demonise him as the President — not that William says this, I’m saying it.)

The Dialogue with Dieuwe de Boer: The Weekly Roundup with William McGimpsey, The Assassination Attempt on Trump, a Case for Nationalism

Paul Brennan did an excellent interview with Dr Naomi Wolf, who is in quite precarious circumstances speaking out as courageously as she does, especially given her friendships with Steve Bannon (now in prison) and Tucker Carlson, who we all know the deep state would lock up in a sparrow’s fart if they could. 

Breakfast with Paul Brennan: Dr Naomi Wolf 

This event should’ve halted everything until Americans, especially the Republicans, get to the bottom of exactly how what happened, happened. There have been no firings, no resignations, no heads have rolled, yet everything is just rolling on towards more malice and tragedy — hopefully not, God forbid, another attempt on Trump’s life.
