Wednesday, Sept. 6, marked the 122nd anniversary of a day that convulsed the nation and the world at the time but has been nearly forgotten since then: the shooting of President William McKinley, who died eight days later, on Sept. 14, 1901. Although virtually no one remembers McKinley today, he was considered one of the most consequential and important presidents of his time, and the world today is in numerous ways quite a bit like the much more genteel world he lived in. The more things change, as they say, the more they stay the same.
There is more. Read the rest here.

We haven’t had a presidential assassination since Kennedy, but I fear that we may be looking at one now. Since the Left has failed in all its previous attempts to remove Trump (other than the rigged election in 2020), including having 4 prosecution teams in 4 states go after him, the only thing they have left now is assassination. Yeah, Trump has the Secret Service, but how difficult would it be to infiltrate it w/ rogue elements, given who’s in power, and then get him killed? There would probably be a full blown civil war were that to happen, but I think we’re dangerously close to getting there

The assassination will be Biden and blamed on the GOP. Martial law will be declared and Conservative leaders will be rounded up. With Martial law the constitution is suspended and elections cancelled and Kamela Harris is president and Obama is her adviser until whenever.

“…McKinley today, he was considered one of the most consequential and important presidents of his time,…”
I don’t know what you are talking about. McKinley was for big business and the status quo. His administration was concerned mainly with keeping things the way they were. It was Theodore Roosevelt, his successor who really made an impact on the nation. He made reforms in such areas as in the meat packing industry and the use of child labor. One of the four presidents carved out into Mt. Rushmore is Theodore Roosevelt, not William McKinley.
