Starting point is 00:00:00 Over the weekend, a Trump supporter actually went on to Marlago, brought a shotgun, and some gasoline, and was killed. And we're now learning why that person may have been there, said here, an armed man drove into the secure permitor of Marlago, President Donald Trump's resort in Palm Beach, Florida, before being shot and killed early Sunday morning, according to a spokesperson for the U.S. Secret Service. although Trump often spends weekends at the resort. He was not there when the property was breached at 1.30 in the morning. And we have here where the suspect was found near the North Gate. I mean, I think it's incredible that the Secret Service has been unable to keep the president safe.
Starting point is 00:00:44 And we are now learning to what happened that night. He was ordered to drop the two pieces of equipment that he had with him, at which time he put down the gas can and raised a shotgun to a shooting position. The two agents and the deputy fired their weapons. neutralize the threat, in other words, to kill him. Now, we're learning about this individual, and it says here he was a family man and a big Trump supporter. The whole family is.
Starting point is 00:01:10 The 21-year-old man seen here, Austin Tucker Martin, was shot and killed by Secret Service and was, quote, an average Trump supporter. As you can see here, here is the gas can he brought and the shotgun. his cousin, Braden Fields, was in disbelief over the incident. Quote, we are big Trump supporters. All of us, everybody. Fields is 19. And added about his cousin is, quote, real quiet, never really talked about anything.
Starting point is 00:01:43 Quote, he's a good kid. Fields told the outlet, I wouldn't believe he would do something like this. It's mind blowing. He wouldn't even hurt an aunt. He doesn't even know how to use a gun, Fields said. Here's some images of what the perimeter looked like after that night. Quote, the only words we said to him was drop the items. He put the gas can down and pointed the shotgun at the officers and then he was killed.
Starting point is 00:02:11 To this, Pan Bondi said the following, grateful that POTUS and our law enforcement agents are safe. And Cash Rettel said this. The FBI is dedicating all necessary resources in the investigation of this morning's incident at President Trump's Mar-Lago when an armed individual was shot and killed after unlawfully entering the perimeter. We will continue working closely with Secret Service as well as our state and didn't write as well as as well our state and federal partners and will provide updates as we are
Starting point is 00:02:44 able. And just as an FYI, Cass Pat Pat Patel when this is all happening was doing this last night. Yeah. Your tax dollar is hard at work. work and I just want to remind you that Casual during his confirmation hearing said this. And the resources of the FBI, which are funded by the American taxpayer dollars in the seven minutes that you and I have been talking about, two people have died from fentanyl overdoses. One person has been shot to death in this country and three people have been raped.
Starting point is 00:03:21 The resources of the FBI will go to that mission set and that mission set alone. That mission said alone. That's exactly what's happened. And just to put a fine point on it, Casper Tell in 2023. And I'm not saying take all their funding. I'm not to defund everything guy. I'm just saying Chris Ray doesn't need a government funded G5 jet to go to vacation. Great.
Starting point is 00:03:47 Just one more time. Fantastic. All right. And we also learned this about the government and why he was there. It's all connected to Epstein. Here we go. Martin was outspoken about his Christian faith in views colleagues from Pine Needles Lodge. in golf club in North Carolina told TMZ
Starting point is 00:04:08 and believed that President Trump was, quote, a strong leader. He had become fixated on the latest release of millions of documents by the Department of Justice related to convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein and was deeply concerned by the prospect of a government coverup and powerful people, quote, getting away with it. And this text message actually was intercepted by TMZ.
Starting point is 00:04:30 I don't know if you read up on the Epstein files, but evil is real and unmistakable. man who was shot at Mar-a-Lago. The best people like you and I can do is use what little infants we have to tell other people about what you hear about the Epson Files and the government is doing about it. Ray's awareness. And then his friend that morning said, hey, where are you? He seems to be like a normal person aside from this because last year, Martin started
Starting point is 00:04:58 a business making hand-drawn golf course designs. Quote, Fresh Sky Illustrations is an artwork company that mainly focuses on bringing to life the hopeful feeling of being on a golf course by illustrating golf course scenes and providing frame copies of handmade works in various golf gift shops. So this, I mean, let's just, all right, so let's just like think about all this real fast. Okay. We are yet again confronted with the fact. Donald Trump and the right are radicalizing men, young men. That's a fact. That is what's happening. It is, Now, I think this is the third time, a right-wing radicalized young male has tried to kill the president, or at least seemed to have violent intentions.
Starting point is 00:05:50 We saw that, of course, in Butler, Pennsylvania, where that man was very close to killing Donald Trump, we're seeing that here right now with this individual who is radicalized by the Epstein files, the family of a Trump supporter. And I don't know what to tell you. Like the Epstein files, this is a huge problem for the administration. My hope is that no one gets hurt. I'm glad Donald Trump and the First Lady are saved. I don't want anything violent to happen to them. I would like them to get consequences from the Justice Department.
Starting point is 00:06:32 But that won't happen for a few years. But we're also not going to get justice around Epstein. And I can understand the frustration of the population, seeing the most powerful people in our country getting away with it yet again. Yet again. Now, of course, the solution to that is not violence. Here is how Jimmy Kimmel put it. We have Attorney General Pam Bondi who put on a nearly five-hour Karen Thon in front of the House Judiciary Committee yesterday. And for those who are wondering when the abuse of power will end, the answer is never, probably.
Starting point is 00:07:11 So a photographer got a shot of her folder. She opened the folder. They got a shot. And you see a page that says Jaya Paul Pramila search history. That refers to Congresswoman Pramilla Jaya Paul, a Democrat, with whom Bondi exchanged from one of the most contentious exchanges of the day. The photo appears to show a list of everything Jaya Paul searched for in the Trump Epstein files, which again, we've trademarked.
Starting point is 00:07:34 They tracked her search history in the private room at the DOJ, where Congresspeople are, you know, legally permitted to look at the less redacted files. And it would seem that they tracked those Congress people without their knowledge. They looked at their search history to give Bondi an edge in the hearings. And then they're so dumb, they printed it out and put a title on the top. Jayapal-Prolma's search history. It's such a delicate balance between stupid and evil. And the idea that the Department of Justice in the executive branch is spying on Congresspeople in the legislative branch is deeply disturbing.
Starting point is 00:08:16 Pam Bondi has spent more time investigating the people who are reading the Epstein files than the people who are in the Epsom, I mean the Trump Epstein file. Absolutely. I'll see you soon.
