Alex Jones’ ‘eerily accurate’ prediction on Biden leaving the race — and what may happen next



President Joe Biden ended his campaign this week, and to no one's surprise, Alex Jones was right again.

“Your prediction was eerily accurate to the day on which he would step down,” Liz Wheeler of “The Liz Wheeler Show” tells Jones. “Who’s behind that? Who made him step down? I have a very hard time believing that it was him.”

“We know the answer to that,” Jones says confidently. “The question is: What are the specifics?”

“It’s a big deal,” he continues. “Biden’s been out of his mind for years, the perfect puppet, and now they know that one’s going to buy a new election steal if it’s him. So, they want Kamala or Newsom or Hillary or ‘Big Mike’ Michelle Obama or Kamala. Anybody but him.”

“That’s why I’ve been predicting they would remove Biden imminently. Which they did,” he adds.

While no one knows exactly what has happened to the president, there are theories swirling. And Jones has his own.

“The point is that Biden was refusing to step down, and I said last week, I said, ‘He will have a medical emergency,’” Jones says. “They just tried to kill Trump, that's failed. Biden’s refusing to step down. It’s the same Deep State that wants full control and people that follow their orders.”

Now that Biden’s out, Americans have been left wondering who the Democratic nominee will be. While it seems that Kamala Harris will step into Biden’s shoes, Jones isn’t so sure.

“It needs to be Kamala on paper under the law to get the 198 million as of yesterday — it’s probably up now,” he tells Wheeler.

“But the Democrats have said that they want to have kind of a weird snap primary where the delegates or the donors with the delegates decide who’s there to at least act like it’s Democratic,” he continues.

“I mean, the sky’s the limit. They already tried to kill Trump, in my view. They already tried to take Trump off the ballot. They’ve already done all this, so we’re really seeing the desperate coup of the Democrat-controlled Deep State out in the open right now,” he adds.

Glenn Beck reacts: Secret Service director RESIGNS after DISASTROUS testimony



Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle has finally resigned, 10 days after the attempted assassination of former president Donald Trump.

It was not only the actions not taken on July 13 that cinched her resignation, but her testimony to the House Oversight Committee, as it was nothing short of disastrous.

“Can you answer why the Secret Service didn’t place a single agent on the roof?” Cheatle was asked by Rep. James Comer (R-Ky.) during the testimony.

“We are still looking into the advanced process and the decisions that were made,” she responded, to groans from those present at the hearing. As the questions continued, Cheatle continued to dodge them — not giving one good answer as to why there were no agents on the sloped rooftop.

While Americans across the country are relieved that Cheatle resigned, Glenn Beck believes “that should not close this case by any stretch of the imagination.”

“When the assassination [attempt] first happened, I looked her up, and I’m like, where did she come from? And I saw that she was head of security for Pepsi, and I’m like, you’ve got to be kidding me,” he adds.

Glenn has some questions for the former Pepsi employee turned Secret Service director that he believes need to be answered before her lack of action is memory-holed.

“What’s on her devices? Why was she using Signal when talking to the White House from her own personal phone? That’s against the law. Did the White House know that was happening? What were they talking about? That’s really important to find out,” he says.

“I think everybody on that Secret Service detail should be brought in front of Congress and have to answer themselves. You know, it’s one thing to be told ‘Shut up, sit down, shut up, don’t say anything.’ It’s another when you’re going to be blamed for it on national television,” he adds.

Former Secret Service agent Dan Bongino on near-assassination of Trump: 'They basically let him get shot'



Dan Bongino – former Secret Service agent turned conservative political commentator – was sounding the alarm on the problems with the Secret Service “decades ago.”

He even wrote a book about it: “Protecting the President: An Inside Account of the Troubled Secret Service in an Era of Evolving Threats.”

“You're going to think, ‘Gosh, did he write this 10 minutes ago?’ No, I wrote it 10 years ago,” he tells Glenn Beck, shedding light on the longevity of the internal issues within the Secret Service.

Back in August of 2023, Bongino warned on his show that he was receiving “information from high-ranking Secret Service sources” regarding “the minimal security posture applied to Donald Trump.”

But when he predicted “that Donald Trump was likely going to be hurt or killed,” the mainstream media “attacked [him] as a conspiracy theorist.”

Those same people who falsely call themselves journalists are now eating their words, as Bongino’s hypothesis was proven correct on July 13.

“You have inside connections,” says Glenn. “Does your gut tell you this is just more of the same incompetence times a thousand or is something nefarious going on?”

"They Basically Let Him Get Shot”: Secret Service Vet Dan Bongino Demands Firings After Trump Attackwww.youtube.com


“I can tell you the level of incompetence leads naturally to the second question; you're not crazy to ask it,” Bongino responds.

As for the “stunning” incompetence, however, Bongino has some questions.

“Why was President Trump on ... what we would call the X? Why was he out on the podium at all” considering they “knew there was a threat up to an hour out, potentially 18 minutes out?” he asks, adding that “there is absolutely zero chance the command post did not get information that they were working a suspicious male surveilling the outside of the perimeter with a rangefinder.”

“They just let the line-of-site threat exist, and the countersurveillance vulnerability assessment — which is a piece of paperwork the countersurveillance team looks at — will show that they knew that was a vulnerability and yet they did nothing about it,” he continues. “They basically let him get shot.”

As for that document, “They’re going to claim it’s classified,” says Bongino, but “it’s not.”

The Secret Service has also given other excuses to justify their actions, such as it was “too hot,” the “roof was sloped,” and that they manned the building from inside on the first floor.

To hear Bongino’s response to those rationalizations, watch the clip above.

Trump responds to Secret Service director's resignation, claims agency rejected 'many requests' for more agents



Former President Donald Trump reacted to Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle's Tuesday announcement that she had resigned from her position following backlash over how her agency handled the recent assassination attempt against the former president.

In an interview with Fox News Digital on Tuesday afternoon, Trump stated, "She never gave me proper protection, so I ended up having to take a bullet for democracy."

'We fell short.'

He claimed that his campaign submitted numerous requests for additional security, which the agency often rejected or outright ignored.

"Many requests were made by on-site Secret Service for more people, always with a turn down or no response," Trump told the news outlet. "I have the biggest crowds in history, and they should be treated accordingly."

He added that "big improvements have been made over the last week," Fox News Digital reported.

On Tuesday morning, Cheatle sent a letter to the Secret Service announcing her resignation despite previously refusing to step down.

"To the Men and Women of the U.S. Secret Service, The Secret Service's solemn mission is to protect our nation's leaders and financial infrastructure," Cheatle wrote. "On July 13th, we fell short on that mission."

During Monday's House Oversight Committee hearing, she faced pressure from both sides of the aisle to resign after admitting the agency's response to the assassination attempt was a "failure."

After Cheatle's initial refusal to step down on Monday, United States Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) filed a motion that evening that would have forced a vote in the House to impeach her, according to a recent press release.

During the hearing, Mace asked Cheatle whether the agency's response was "a colossal failure," to which the director replied, "Yes." Mace slammed the Secret Service for its lack of transparency, noting that lawmakers had to subpoena Cheatle to testify. She accused the director of leaking her opening statement to various media outlets before sending it to the committee in anticipation of the hearing.

"I have no idea how my statement got out," Cheatle claimed.

"Well, that's bulls***," Mace rebutted. "On July 15th, this committee sent you a list of demands of information that we wanted. Has the Secret Service provided this committee a complete list of all law enforcement personnel that were there that day?"

Cheatle responded, "I'll have to get back to you on that."

"That is a 'no,'" Mace continued. "You're full of s*** today. You're just being completely dishonest."

"We haven't gotten a single document or piece of information or data from you or your agency," Mace added.

During her testimony, Cheatle did not provide a direct response when asked how many times the agency had rejected the Trump campaign's requests for additional security.

In her opening statement before the committee, she admitted that the agency's response to the assassination attempt was "the most significant operational failure of the Secret Service in decades." However, at the time, she maintained that she was "the best person" to lead the agency.

After Cheatle gave in to the mounting calls to resign on Tuesday afternoon, President Joe Biden released a statement addressing the decision and thanking her for her service.

"As a leader, it takes honor, courage, and incredible integrity to take full responsibility for an organization tasked with one of the most challenging jobs in public service," the statement read. "The independent review to get to the bottom of what happened on July 13th continues, and I look forward to assessing its conclusions. We all know what happened that day can never happen again."

During her Monday testimony before the committee, Cheatle said the agency's ongoing initial internal review would take approximately 60 days.

Biden-appointed Secret Service director won't step down after Trump shooting



DEI and ensuring that women make up at least 30% of the department may be among the U.S. Secret Service's top priorities, but its core function is still ostensibly to "ensure the safety and security of [its] protectees, key locations, and events of national significance."

Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle, 53, acknowledged in an interview Monday that her agency failed to execute this core function at the Trump rally over the weekend — where the former president was grazed by one of a hail of bullets and a beloved father of two was slain in the stands.

While Cheatle admitted failure and told ABC News that the "buck stops with me," the director revealed that her ownership of fault effectively means nothing.

Sources close to the Biden family recently told the New York Post that Cheatle, who previously served in the Secret Service for 27 years, then briefly ran global security for PepsiCo., secured the favor of Jill Biden and her advisers, including Anthony Bernal.

"Cheatle served on Dr. Biden's second lady detail and Anthony pushed for her," a Democratic insider told the Post. "Anthony has no national security or law enforcement experience. He should have no influence over the selection of the USSS director."

Another insider said, "I heard at the time [Cheatle] was being considered for director that Anthony had pushed her forward as an option."

"Anthony is obsessed with being DEI-compliant," a third source told the Post.

President Joe Biden appointed Cheatle to lead the agency in 2022.

'What I was seeing was DEI.'

Biden said at the time, "She is a distinguished law enforcement professional with exceptional leadership skills and was easily the best choice to lead the agency at a critical moment for the Secret Service. She has my complete trust, and I look forward to working with her."

It appears that Biden's confidence was again misplaced.

"It was a total security breakdown from start to finish," former FBI Assistant Director Chris Swecker told the Post. "From the total security plan for the rally to the reaction once the shots rang out."

"What I was seeing was DEI," continued Swecker. "The women I saw up there with the president — they looked like they were running in circles. One didn’t know how to holster, the other one didn’t seem to know what to do, and another one seemed not to be able to find her holster. DEI is one thing. Competence and effectiveness is another, and I saw DEI out there."

"It was obviously a situation that, as a Secret Service agent, no one ever wants to occur in their career," Cheatle told ABC News.

When asked who bore most responsibility for the security failure, Cheatle said, "What I would say is the Secret Service is responsible for the protection of the former president."

"The buck stops with me," continued Cheatle. "I am the director of the Secret Service, and I need to make sure that we are performing a review and that we are giving resources to our personnel as necessary."

"It was unacceptable, and it's something that shouldn't happen again," added Cheatle.

Despite admitting responsibility for this "unacceptable" failure, Cheatle said she does "plan to stay on" in her role.

Various lawmakers and officials have called on Cheatle to step down.

'There was a complete breakdown of communication all the way down the line.'

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), for instance, refrained from criticizing the agents on the ground who threw themselves on President Donald Trump when the bullets started flying but insisted that the "head of the Secret Service should resign over this."

Cruz also latched on to Cheatle's characterization of Trump simply as a "former president," noting Trump is "the first in modern history to run for president again, and he has been the focus of several prosecutions and controversies — understatement intentional."

Rep. Tim Burchett (R-Tenn.) told cable news, "There was a complete breakdown of communication all the way down the line, and so that starts at the top. The head of the Secret Service needs to go. That's obvious. But I doubt that will happen."

Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) introduced the Secret Service Accountability Act Monday to hold Cheatle accountable "for the agency's incompetence and failure to protect President Trump during the Butler, Pennsylvania, campaign rally."

"Saturday's assassination attempt on President Trump's life was either intentional or the result of gross incompetence by the United States Secret Service," Boebert said in a statement. "Under Director Cheatle's failed leadership, the United States Secret Service has prioritized woke DEI policies over the core responsibilities of the Secret Service, including protecting our nation's leaders. This lack of leadership contributed to the first assassination attempt of a President in 43 years. Director Cheatle has got to go!"

The House Committee on Oversight and Accountability has asked Cheatle to provide information related to the incident, including:

  • a complete list of all law enforcement personnel with roles in protecting Trump at the rally;
  • all audio and video recordings in the possession of the Secret Service related to the rally;
  • all memos and or notices issued by Cheatle to Secret Service personnel regarding the assassination attempt; and
  • other intel and correspondences related to the rally and assassination attempt.

Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas told reporters days after Trump was shot on Cheatle's watch that he has "100% confidence in the director of the United States Secret Service."

Cheatle has in turn expressed her confidence in the security plan for the Secret Service at the Republican National Convention.
