Authorities have identified 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks from Bethel Park, PA as the “subject involved” in the failed attempt to assassinate former President Donald Trump. Crooks, it is said, is a registered Republican, although he donated money to Democratic Party organizations ActBlue and the Progressive Turnout Project.

ActBlue is an app that raises money for left-leaning Democrat candidates, and socialist, progressive and revolutionary organizations. The Progressive Turnout Project is dedicated to a “progressive takeover” by leftist Democrats.

The FBI and other law enforcement agencies have not determined a motive, they say with a straight face. But let’s look at the facts.

What could possibly motivate a young first-time presidential election voter to want to assassinate a candidate?

Could it be the vitriol and hate speech rhetoric shaping a young mind that believes only what he hears from progressive groups like the ones to which he donated?

There was a mention also of Antifa—what many believed to be the Obama-Biden militant arm of the progressive Democrats. This has not been confirmed. Nevertheless, within minutes of the assassination attempt, there was an outpouring of Democrats on social media, including Joe Biden, offering their prayers for Trump and saying that this type of thing should never happen in America.

So magnanimous. But were they genuine?

On Friday, Biden was railing on Trump as a “convicted criminal” at his rally in Detroit. He said,

“No more! Donald, no more free passes. Today, we are going to shine a spotlight on Donald Trump. We are going to do what the press so far hasn’t [sic], but I think they’re gonna soon. We are going to say who he is, what he intends to do. Folks, Donald Trump is a convicted criminal.”

According to New York Times reporter Kenneth P. Vogel, Biden, in a Monday phone call, told Democrat donors,

“It’s time to put Trump in the bullseye.”

Several Democrats recently urged Biden to “take out” Trump after they misinterpreted a Supreme Court decision on presidential immunity. These were widely reported in the news media.

And on July 2, Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) told MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell,

“This is not a normal election where you want to win, and if you don’t, you cooperate and do the best you can for the country and hope to win the next time. This is something that is undermining our democracy. He must be stopped. He cannot be president!”

Writing for Breitbart News, John Nolte documented several articles in the news media comparing Trump to Hitler, authoritarianism, Nazism, and fantasizing about a Trump assassination. Nolte called it a hate campaign. In conclusion, the hate rhetoric toward Trump paved the way for what happened Saturday. And the very critics of Trump who are piously offering their prayers are the ones who fomented the hate.

Titus 1:16 says, “They profess to know God, but in works they deny Him…”

I wonder what they really prayed.

The Democratic Party is in sheer panic mode after Joe Biden’s poor debate performance. There have been many stories where the party faithful are wringing their hands about what to do. Some have even called for him to step down in an apparent admission that Biden has dementia and his continued candidacy will pull down the rest of the ticket come election day.

If it wasn’t enough that his feeble him-hawing, freezing up, rambling on without finishing thoughts to give the entire world the impression that Joe’s not in control, his wife Jill helping him off the stage so he wouldn’t fall on national television should be enough to convince even the least discerning among the party faithful.

Then came Nancy Pelosi.

Sunday’s episode of CNN’s “State of the Union” found US Representative Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and host Dana Bash (also the “unbiased” debate moderator) teaming up to accuse Trump of exactly what Biden has.

Bash quoted a friend of Joe saying that Biden has no business running for reelection and slow-pitched the question to Pelosi, “What do you say to that? Is there any part of you that believes that President Biden should step aside?”

Pelosi responded, “I want you to know I came home to California, south and north, and people are for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. They have some judgment about a person who said, stood on that stage and lied, lied, lied, if you’re just talking about the debate.”

Pelosi continued, “I am respectful of some of the opinions that people have, but it is also respectful of the grassroots. My people are very much Biden and Kamala Harris, and this is an opportunity for Joe Biden to go out there and show he has the stamina…. By the way, the press and for some reason they don’t, there are healthcare professionals who think that Trump has dementia. That his connection of his thoughts does not go together. It’s not only that he just lies. He doesn’t even know the truth. So, if we’re talking about mental acuity, let’s be fair about it. I don’t think Tom Friedman thinks that Donald Trump should be president of the United States.”

There was no comparison about how clearly and in control of his mind Trump handled the debate.

Biden looked like he didn’t have much control over his thoughts, his understanding of the issues, or command of the facts. So now Pelosi and her ilk are trying to say that not only is Trump a liar, he is mentally unsound.

Trump took away the Democrats’ abortion attack platform by clearly stating his position. He was clear about illegal aliens and the burden Biden’s policies are forcing on Americans. He demonstrated without challenge how Biden’s inflation is hurting every American. So now, Pelosi and the crew are focused on calling Trump a mentally incompetent liar.

As Romans 2:1 says, “You, therefore, have no excuse, you who pass judgment on another. For on whatever grounds you judge the other, you are condemning yourself, because you who pass judgment do the same things.”

There they go again. It’s, say it with me… Stupidocrisy.
