Demolition Ranch owner breaks silence on Trump shooting after Thomas Matthew Crooks seen wearing his branded t-shirt

A Texas YouTuber has broken his silence after it was revealed the Trump shooter was wearing a t-shirt from his merchandise line. Thomas Matthew Crooks was seen in Demolition Ranch apparel after he was shot dead during the assassination attempt at a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, on Saturday. The 20-year-old grazed Trump's ear, killed one spectator and injured two more before a Secret Service counter assault agent killed him. Photos circulating in the hours since Crooks fired a series of bullets at the former president show him wearing the grey Demolition Ranch short-sleeved t-shirt with an American flag on the arm and block lettering. The brand is linked to Matt Carriker's popular video channel, which is devoted to showcasing guns and and shooting various types of weaponry. Now the founder of Demolition Ranch, which boasts almost 12 million subscribers, is has shared his reaction to learning Crooks was in his brand. 'What the hell,' Carriker wrote Saturday evening in a Facebook posting that saw a photo of Crooks lying dead. After finding out about Crooks endorsement of his channel, Carriker took to X to explain how he had been contacted by members of the media asking about his connection and if he had ever spoken with the shooter. 'Last night was crazy… I’ve got news stations calling me asking if I ever spoke with the shooter… what… the… hell,' Carriker tweeted, clearly in shock. Carriker, who calls himself as 'King of the Demolitia' and has been running his YouTube channel for the last 13 years and now receives billions of views. He started the venture as a hobby in 2011.


His postings across social media this weekend received 147,000 likes on Instagram and a further 9,000 on Facebook. Many loyal followers sought to reassure Carriker that he was not responsible for Crooks' actions. 'So sorry your logo was possibly attached to this.. you aren't attached to these actions at all bro stay positive and keep sharing the good stuff you do,' wrote Shonduras. 'Unfortunately, we can’t control who wears our merch in the wild. But people that know you, know that you don’t condone acts such as this. At the end of the day, this was a piece of trash that just happened to throw on a DR shirt,' wrote another. 'Matt, we know you do not stand for violence. This doesn’t affect what we think of you. Your actions show your intentions,' reassured another online poster. 'On the positive, your shirt will live in history for a thousand years,' added another on X. In many of Carriker's videos, he can be seen conducting experiments using his firepower which are often extremely creative and entertaining blending his fascination with guns with a dark sense of humor that include his wife and friends. Carriker regularly posts videos of himself firing handguns and assault rifles at targets that include human mannequins and vehicles. Crooks, meanwhile, was identified by police as Saturday's shooter after firing off several shots that killed one person and injured three others including Trump. Crooks was reportedly registered as a Republican but had made a $15 donation to a Democratic PAC in 2021. Schoolmates described him as a loner who would often wear hunting gear. Source

St Michael Has Abandoned Law Enforcement! Reason Why Secret Service Failed President Trump; Breakdown Of How It Happened


I first posted the idea that St. Michael is no longer the Patron Saint of Policemen/Law Enforcement on 26 May 2024:

Just Another Reason To Hate Cops: Fontana CA Cops Threaten To Kill Mentally Unstable Man's Dog If He Does Not Falsely Confess To Killing Father - Who Was Still Alive

Here is what I posted:

May St Michael no longer protect the police. May St Michael flee from ALL Policemen leaving everyone of them unprotected by God.

I've been praying for the destruction of the Space and Airline industries during the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass for several years now - I've had my prayers answered.

I will now pray during the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass that St Michael no longer protects ANY police officer.

Before God destroys a city or nation its guardian angel is the first to flee that city or state - God's punishment soon follows.  

This is what I will pray for during the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. May St. Michael flee from police officers. May St Michael no longer be the Patron Saint of Police Officers.

The people of Ninive did penance for their sins in sack cloth and ashes.

American Police Officers doing penance for their sins?

LOL!

Gym bros don't do penance! 

I will post news of punishments....

***********************************************

Before Babylon was destroyed - the Guardian Angels of Babylon said to themselves - Lets each one of us go back to our own Nations. Some think that this was said by the Jews before they went back to Jerusalem but the Church Fathers say that this was spoken by the Guardian Angels of Babylon and not the Jews because the Jews have only one Nation, but each of the Angels were Guardians for a particular Nation but were commanded by God to protect Babylon - so at one time Babylon had many Guardian Angels  not just one,

So this Scripture is proof that Guardian Angels of a Nation can and do Forsake a Nation just before that Nation is punished by God.

This is what I pray for that that Police and Law Enforcement is abandoned by St Michael.

And this is what is happening

RAD TRAD CATHOLIC VP? JD VANCE


JD Vance is Trump’s VP pick after Rubio and Burgum were passed over for running mate 
Donald Trump has selected Sen. JD Vance of Ohio as his presidential running mate, ending months of speculation about the Republican nominee’s choice to help him challenge President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris. “After lengthy deliberation and thought, and considering the tremendous talents of many others, I have decided that the person best suited to assume the position of Vice President of the United States is Senator J.D. Vance of the Great State of Ohio,” Trump said Monday in a Truth Social post. Two other top Republican contenders, Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida and North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum, were told earlier that they would not be picked, NBC News reported. The Biden campaign promptly panned the selection, accusing Trump of picking Vance because he will “bend over backwards to enable Trump and his extreme MAGA agenda, even if it means breaking the law and no matter the harm to the American people.” “Billionaires and corporations are literally rooting for J.D. Vance: they know he and Trump will cut their taxes and send prices skyrocketing for everyone else,” read the statement from Biden-Harris campaign chair Jen O’Malley Dillon. Biden’s official X account separately wrote that while Vance “talks a big game about working people,” he and Trump “want to raise taxes on middle-class families while pushing more tax cuts for the rich.” Harris has previously accepted an invitation from CBS News to participate in a vice presidential debate on either July 23 or Aug. 13.

‘Morning Joe’ pulled from air Monday because of Trump shooting


‘Morning Joe’ pulled from air Monday because of Trump shooting 

New York CNN — MSNBC will not air “Morning Joe,” its celebrated politics roundtable program, on Monday, opting to instead air continued breaking news coverage of the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump. The progressive news network confirmed the decision to preempt its influential and top-rated morning show after a CNN inquiry Sunday evening. The network said the show will resume airing Tuesday. The decision by MSNBC to leave one of its most recognizable programs on the sidelines amid a seismic politics-driven news cycle, with the Republican National Convention getting underway in the wake of the Saturday shooting at Trump’s campaign rally, is certain to raise eyebrows.A person familiar with the matter told CNN that the decision was made to avoid a scenario in which one of the show’s stable of two dozen-plus guests might make an inappropriate comment on live television that could be used to assail the program and network as a whole. Given the breaking news nature of the story, the person said, it made more sense to continue airing rolling breaking news coverage in the fraught political moment. “Given the gravity and complexity of this unfolding story, NBC News, NBC News NOW and MSNBC have remained in rolling breaking news coverage since Saturday evening,” a spokesperson for NBCUniversal News Group said in a statement to CNN. “As we continue to cover this story into the week, the networks will continue to cross simulcast, alternating between NBC News, NBC News NOW and ‘MSNBC Reports,’ so there is one news feed covering this developing situation.” In the wake of the attempt on Trump’s life, some of the former president’s supporters have vehemently criticized the press and liberal media commentators for their hard-knuckled reporting, which has sounded the alarm on what four more years under the former president would look like. Cesar Conde, the chairman of NBCUniversal News Group, made the decision in conjunction with Rashida Jones, the president of MSNBC, and hosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski, the person familiar with the matter told CNN.

TRUMP GUNMAN SEEN OPENING FIRE...


The Trump rally shooter was laid out on his belly, took aim and fired shots into the crowd before he got met with incoming bullets that killed him ... and TMZ has it all on video. We've obtained an incredible clip that shows the moment the gunman opened fire at the Butler, PA rally Saturday -- and you can see the guy looking through either a scope or iron sights on a roof ... with people watching down below and freaking out, their panic palpable.The guy has longer brown hair, and he seems to be wearing a grey shirt/khaki pants -- and as you can see, he's carefully trying pinpoint a target from afar before pulling the trigger. Once bullets start to ring out, you can hear people screaming on the ground and a mass scramble take place .... and only moments later, you can hear incoming gunfire -- with multiple pops coming his way, and at that point ... the gunman was struck, all on camera. The cameraman, Michael Difrischia, panned back to the gunman after the retaliating rounds could be heard ... and sure enough, you see the gunman laying there limp and lifeless. You can hear someone off-camera say, "That's exactly why we need f***ing Trump here." In terms of what led up to this ... Difrischia tells us he and his wife, Amber, were watching the Trump rally from outside the main grounds ... standing near some trees with about 30 to 40 other people, when Amber noticed the dude climbing up onto a nearby building there.

Ukrainian Catholic Priest Prayed For Donald Trump’s Safety At PA Rally Moments Before Shooting


Catholic Priest Prayed for Donald Trump’s Safety at PA Rally Moments Before Shooting 

The priest said that the Trump campaign contacted him a few days ago and asked him to offer a benediction at the rally. A Catholic priest who gave a benediction during former President Donald Trump’s rally Saturday told people they needed to pray for Trump moments before Trump was shot and wounded. Father Jason Charron, a Ukrainian Catholic pastor, told CNA a group of about 15 to 20 people called him over to a barricade within the rally site as he was trying to leave shortly before Trump began speaking. “I said to them: I prayed for him and his safety, but that they have to pray, as well, because there are people who want to kill him,” Father Charron said in a telephone interview with CNA late Saturday night. “And little did I think — literally a few minutes later there was this kind of indistinct sound, and people began leaving, and at that point I heard someone saying that that was a gunshot.” A gunman trying to kill Trump firing several times at the former president, hitting the top of his right ear while killing a spectator and wounding two more, authorities said.Father Charron said he met briefly with Trump before the former president went out to address the crowd at the rally, which took place in an outdoor venue at Butler Farm Show in Butler County, Pennsylvania. 


“I spoke with him regarding the situation in Ukraine, and shook his hand. It wasn’t a very in-depth conversation,” Father Charron said. The priest told CNA that the Trump campaign contacted him a few days ago and asked him to offer a benediction at the rally. In an interview that aired on the 'Pints with Aquinas' podcast Saturday night, Father Charron recounted the prayer he offered at the event. “My prayer was one of protection. My prayer there was for the restoration of right relationships in our society — relationships at the individual level, at the familial level, at the societal level, such that our national would be made great again in God’s sight. And our nation be made great again, I said, that our world be made great again, in God’s sight,” Father Charron said.“All of this presupposes that people, first of all, begin to live their daily lives in accordance with God’s will,” the priest added. 


Father Charron said he is aware of Trump’s policy pronouncements that conflict with Catholic teaching, including Trump’s recent statements saying he favors the availability of abortion pills. But he alluded to Trump’s pro-life actions, which include while he was president appointing three U.S. Supreme Court justices who helped form a majority that overturned Roe v. Wade in June 2022, which enabled states to ban abortion. “If people are going to wonder why I was at a Trump rally, it wasn’t to canonize him or absolve him from his many imperfections,” Father Charron told CNA. “His recent shyness on championing pro-life legislation is undesirable, and it’s not for that that I’m there, but to encourage him to build on the pro-life victories of his first administration,” he said.Father Charron was ordained to the priesthood in the Ukrainian Catholic Church for the Diocese of St. Josaphat in 2008. He has served in parishes in North Carolina, West Virginia and Pennsylvania and is currently pastor of Holy Trinity Ukrainian Catholic Church in Carnegie, Pennsylvania, and Our Lady of Perpetual Help in Wheeling, West Virginia.

FBI identifies Trump rally shooter as 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks 

Authorities have identified the gunman involved in the attack against former US President Donald Trump on Saturday as 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks, who was killed by Secret Service agents at the scene after the shooting. The FBI named Crooks in a statement early Sunday morning, identifying him as a resident of Bethel Park, Pennsylvania – about 35 miles south of Butler, where Trump was holding his rally. Crooks fired on Trump while perched on a nearby building rooftop outside the rally’s security perimeter, before being killed by the Secret Service, according to law enforcement officials. Witnesses at the rally described a “bloody” and chaotic scene, with people trying to administer first aid to those hit by the gunfire and struggling with the dense crowd. The shooting left one rally attendee dead and two others in critical condition, authorities said. Trump was injured, writing on social media that he’d been hit by a bullet in the upper part of his ear – though his campaign said he was otherwise fine. Trump flew back to Newark, New Jersey, late Saturday night. Now attention turns to the active and ongoing investigation, which involves multiple federal and state bodies. The FBI has urged members of the public to submit any information they have through a tip line or the agency website, including photos or videos of the shooting. Crooks graduated from Bethel Park High School in 2022, according to a local media report and a video of the school’s commencement. He was registered to vote as a Republican, according to a listing in Pennsylvania’s voter database that matched his name, age, and a Bethel Park address that law enforcement was searching Saturday night and is linked to Crooks in public records. This year’s presidential election would have been the first he was old enough to vote in. Federal Election Commission records show that a donor listed as Thomas Crooks with the same address gave $15 to a Democratic-aligned political action committee called the Progressive Turnout Project in January 2021.When reached by CNN late Saturday night, Crooks’ father, Matthew Crooks, said he was trying to figure out “what the hell is going on” but would “wait until I talk to law enforcement” before speaking about his son. After being killed at the scene, Crooks didn’t have any identification on his body, so agents had to “run his DNA and get biometric confirmation,” Kevin Rojek, the special agent in charge of the FBI’s Pittsburgh field office, said at a press conference Saturday night before the gunman was named.

Fire heavily damages downtown Springfield buildings 
A fire in Springfield's downtown Wednesday kept crews busy for hours. The fire began before noon in the 400 block of East Adams, in a structure which housed the recently opened cat cafe called Cat's Pyjamas. Neighboring buildings were also impacted. The adjacent Cafe Moxo announced it will be closed indefinitely as owners assess damage. The cause remains under investigation but is believed to have started in an upper story. A tenant reportedly called authorities after smelling smoke. The Elf Shelf, a longtime book and record store, formerly occupied the cat cafe space and was being moved upstairs. A social media post said art and artifacts for an exhibit on the former Pillsbury Mills were in the building and were destroyed. A firefighter suffered smoke inhalation. Those inside the buildings got out safely. Cats from the cafe were removed and safely placed at a nearby business. Source

Brazilian Pilot and Illinois Coffee Entrepreneur Juliana Turchetti Dies Fighting Fire 

Juliana Turchetti, a trailblazing Brazilian aerial firefighter and owner of Springfield, Illinois-based Aviatori Coffee, died Wednesday while fighting a fire in Montana. Working on behalf of Idaho-based company Dauntless Air, the 45-year-old native of Minas Gerais was flying a FireBoss plane contracted to the U.S. Forest Service in order to fight a man-made fire when the plane crashed. Turchetti was the only person on board. Local and federal authorities said the accident is under investigation. Turchetti was an admired figure in the aviation and coffee industries, both of which she came to through childhood passions in Brazil. Turchetti was recently in the process of selling the Aviatori Coffee house in Springfield in order to devote more time to her aviation career. After deciding at the age of 12 that her calling was in the sky, Turchetti took her first flight as a flight attendant in Brazil at age 21 in order to save money to become a pilot. She would eventually accrue more than 6,000 flight hours while earning numerous piloting and instructors’ licenses, according to her LinkedIn profile. She was also a regular contributor to the B2B news publication AgAir in English, Spanish and Portuguese. Turchetti moved to the United States in 2017, pursuing aviation jobs in Nevada, Minnesota, Oklahoma and Texas before eventually landing in the city of Havana, Illinois, to fly agricultural planes. While in Havana and missing the coffee of her home country, Turchetti started bringing in roasted coffees then green coffees from Minas Gerais. She began importing and roasting the greens for farmers market sales, then launched the family-run Aviatori Coffee shop in 2022 inside a historic Springfield house. In a 2022 radio interview with NPR Illinois, Turchetti shared some of her thoughts on coffee, urging guests to be brave. “I love telling people what I know about coffee, because it’s a constant learning for me; I’m still learning a lot,” she said. “So don’t ever feel intimidated. If anyone is listening to us and wants to go there and ask questions. I’m more than happy to answer. And, the good coffee is the one that you like.” Source

Russian interior ministry says gunmen have opened fire in Dagestan

Priest and six law enforcement officers killed in attacks on synagogues and church in Russia’s Dagestan


CNN — Six law enforcement officers and a priest have reportedly been killed in what appear to be coordinated attacks by gunmen in Russia’s southernmost Dagestan province. Attacks have been reported in a church and a synagogue in the city of Derbent and at a synagogue and police traffic stop in the city of Makhachkala. Regional authorities say 12 law enforcement officers have also been wounded, though it is unclear in which city. The two cities are about 120km (75 miles) apart. Two “militants” have also been killed following the attacks, the Russian state-owned news agency RIA Novosti reported on Sunday, citing Dagestan’s Ministry of Internal Affairs. A priest was killed in the attack on the church in Derbent, according to the Dagestan Public Monitoring Commission Chairman, Shamil Khadulaev. “According to the information I received, Father Nikolay was killed in the church in Derbent, they slit his throat. He was 66-years-old and very ill,” Khadulaev said. He also said a security guard at the church armed with only a pistol was shot. Additional priests have locked themselves in the church and are waiting for help, Khadulaev said. Meanwhile, the synagogue in Derbent was set on fire with photos showing large flames and plumes of smoke billowing heavily out of a series of windows on at least one floor of the structure. In what appears to be coordinated attacks that took place around the same time as those in Derbent, a synagogue and a police traffic post in Makhachkala also came under fire. The Israeli foreign ministry described what it said was “a combined attack” on the two synagogues. “The synagogue in Derbent was set on fire and burned to the ground. Local guards were killed. The synagogue in Makhachkala was attacked by gunfire, there are no further details,” the foreign ministry said in a statement. “As far as is known, there were no worshipers in the synagogues at the time of the attack, and there are no known casualties from the Jewish community,” according to the statement. The head of the Dagestan Republic, Sergey Melikov, has issued a message on Telegram saying that “unknown persons made attempts to destabilize the social situation. Dagestan police officers stood in their way. According to preliminary information, there are victims among them.” Source

Synagogue, church attacks in Russia’s Dagestan kill police, priest



Gunmen have killed at least eight people – six police officers, a national guard member and a priest – during what appear to be coordinated attacks on a synagogue, an Orthodox church and a police post in the Russian republic of Dagestan, the Ministry of Internal Affairs in Dagestan has said. Twelve people were wounded in the attacks, which took place in the cities of Derbent and Makhachkala on Sunday evening.Both the synagogue and the church are located in Derbent, which is home to ancient Jewish community in the mainly-Muslim North Caucasus region. The police post attack took place in Makhachkala, the capital of Dagestan, approximately 125km (78 miles) away. The synagogue in Derbent was set on fire as a result of the attack, local officials told the Reuters news agency, while eyewitnesses also reported that smoke was rising from the church. Four of the attackers have been shot dead in a subsequent shoot-out, according to Russian news agencies quoting the local interior ministry. The Russian news agency TASS reported that the attackers were members of “an international terrorist organisation”, according to law enforcement agencies. The attackers in Derbent had earlier been seen fleeing in a car. “Tonight in Derbent and Makhachkala, unknown people made attempts to destablise the public situation,” said the Head of the Republic of Dagestan, Sergei Melikov. “Dagestan police officers stood in their way. According to preliminary information, there are casualties among them. All services are acting in accordance with the instruction … The identities of the attackers are being established.” The Israeli foreign ministry said the synagogue in Derbent had been burned to the ground and shots had been fired at a second synagogue in Makhachkala. The statement said it was believed there were no worshippers in the synagogue at the time. Daniel Hawkins, reporting for Al Jazeera from Moscow, said that Dagestan has previously seen separatist violence in the 1990s and early 2000s, Hawkins noted. “Violence there, as the years have gone on, has died down,” Hawkins said, explaining that the region never saw the kind of conflict that engulfed the neighbouring Russian republic of Chechnya, which saw Russian forces and separatists fight two brutal wars during the same period. Source
