“Voici le temps des Assassins.”
— Rimbaud
I write these words less than 48 hours after the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump in the village of Butler in western Pennsylvania. Not wanting to be guilty of what the illustrious Mark Lane once termed a “Rush to Judgement,” this is a preliminary analysis subject to revision as more information becomes available.
Most noticeable is the diabolic nose-thumbing at the public which the events of July 13 symbolize.
I. The shooter was visible on the roof of a building some 120 yards from Mr. Trump. In news accounts we learn of repeated demands by witnesses for the police to access the roof. The New York Post reported that “the would-be assassin was spotted by police twice, 26 minutes before he shot Trump.”
This has been followed by alternating tales of a policeman going to the roof either via a ladder or, in account no. 2, there was no ladder and the officer somehow crawled up, and while hanging on to the edge of the roof with both hands, spotted the would-be assassin but could do nothing, since both his hands were supporting him precariously on the roof edge.
(In account no. 1 the ladder indicates that the officer likely had one hand free and after seeing the armed man could have reached for his weapon, but did not).
In both accounts the policeman did not engage the shooter and it is allegedly at that point that the shooter turned toward Trump and fired eight bullets from the rifle liberals detest more than all others, the infamous “AR-15.”
II. The Secret Service did not include in its perimeter the building in the vicinity of Mr. Trump’s podium where the suspect, Matthew Thomas Crooks, is said to have fired the shots that hit the former president and three members of the audience, one of whom was killed. They left the crucial responsibility for securing a nearby structure to local law enforcement and then did not bother to ascertain whether or not the regional police forces had indeed secured it.
III. Secret Service audio which would normally be kept classified so early in the “investigation” was broadcast on CNN yesterday evening, July 14. Individual agents could be heard saying that the shooter was down and words to the effect that that there was no further threat. Really? Less than a minute after the ex-president had been grazed by a bullet the Secret Service had ascertained there was no second or third shooter lurking nearby? Who would have this information other than parties to the crime? The 6-foot-3 inch Trump was allowed to stand and become an easy target again, after first crouching and being covered by agents.
IV. The FBI has declared that the shooter was a lone gunman and had no accomplices. A statement like that, made less than 24 hours after the crime was committed is ludicrous. A criminal investigation truly begins in earnest after a perpetrator has been identified. The search for accomplices is something that takes days or weeks, at the least. A declaration like this is equivalent to the mocking jests of the aptly named HellFire Club of 18th century Britain. The FBI’s nearly instantaneous declaration fits a pattern of similar omniscient statements by cops and the media with regard to Lee Harvey Oswald, David Berkowitz and Ted Kaczynski, among others.
Within a few hours of the apprehension of “Son of Sam” Berkowitz, New York police and Newsweek magazine fingered him as indubitably the lone nut who had committed all the killings. Other media followed suit. (The best study thus far of this charade is the film series “The Sons of Sam”).
In the case of “Unabomber” Ted Kaczynski the lone nut label was even more egregious: the FBI made no search for possible accomplices in the town where he resided (Lincoln Montana), the city he visited regularly (the Montana state capital, Helena), or among the radical environmentalists of Missoula, 77 miles east of Lincoln. How do I know this? I was an investigative reporter on the scene shortly after scapegoat Kaczynski’s arrest (my study of the FBI’s “Unabomber” theatrical was published in Secret Societies and Psychological Warfare).
What is the sub-rosa message being conveyed to the subconscious of the American Group Mind by these rush-to-judgement declarations of sole responsibility within a day of the arrest of the suspect?
Who would be in a position to put forth so quickly and didactically the claim that the accused had no other assistance, direction or encouragement? Who would have the brazen confidence to state publicly the certainty that no other guilty parties or accomplices will be discovered? Only the accomplices themselves could make such a statement, in the expectation that it will be accepted by the public as well as the media who are supposed to be tasked with investigating the veracity of official statements.
The crooks behind the “only blame Crooks” theory, now elevated to a rock solid FBI determination, are not simply testing our cognition and alertness, they are grinning at us.
BlackRock Inc. is said to be among the largest “asset managers” in the world. Controlling more than $8 trillion in assets under management, BlackRock is the world’s largest shadow bank. Investments made by the BlackRock crooks include major corporate players in war profiteering and the military industrial complex.

In the UK, The Independent newspaper reported: “The man identified as the shooter who attempted to assassinate Donald Trump has been spotted in a television advertisement for BlackRock. In the ad filmed at Bethel Park School, Thomas Matthew Crooks can be seen in the middle of an economics class, watching the whiteboard.”
It would seem that the odds of this being a “coincidence” are somewhat north of astronomical.
A TV advertisement for the world’s “largest shadow bank” — one that is heavily invested in Federal government-linked military contractors, just so happens to include a future shooter of a former president of the United States at the youth’s Bethel high school, under a BlackRock-supplied video caption reading “that guy made this place a special place to come to school.” (For students of Twilight Language, in Hebrew Bethel (בֵּית־אֵל) denotes “temple of God”).
The assassination of John F. Kennedy was planned in part in Shakespeare, New Mexico and the Storyville district of New Orleans. Let’s revise Andrew Fletcher of Saltoun’s famous observation, “Let me write the stories of a nation, and I care not who makes its laws.”
The Revelation of the Method
In this Revelation of the Method era we are percipients at an alchemical theater of murder. JFK’s killing had elements of Shakespeare’s Macbeth and the text of a play titled “MacBird!” was published by Ramparts magazine in 1966 and staged in 1967. “The play superimposes the John F. Kennedy assassination onto the plot of Shakespeare's Macbeth,” with Lyndon B. Johnson as Macbeth (MacBird)—the killer of the “king.”
The accounts thus far of the attempt on the life of Trump comprise a message to the subconscious of America and it’s not a very subtle one. In fact it’s fairly sloppy and in my view, from what I know of the Revelation of the Method, deliberately so. Our Overlords don’t object if we come to realize that there’s something very wrong with the official government and corporate media tale that is being woven about the events in Butler, PA July 13. Our guardians and watchdogs are lying and misleading us. Our awareness of this truth is anticipated. It’s part of their gag. The joke’s on us.
I have witnessed this process time and again: 9/11; The Tarot Card Killer; Virginia Tech 33, the Batman Massacre in Aurora, Colorado; Necromancy in Parkland; El Paso Cielo Massacre; the Route 91 Harvest Massacre in Las Vegas; the slaughter of mostly Hispanic children in Uvalde, Texas—over and again the blood-smoking pyramid is propitiated and there’s nothing we can do about it. Or at least that’s what the Cryptocracy wants to think: to inject our minds with powerlessness and demoralization by granting us a sneak peek at the appalling revelation of their own responsibility. Now, in 2024, we are spectators at a glaring revelation of their conspiracy. The message? Ha, ha suckers, we don’t care if you know; there’s nothing you can do about our power over you and your world.
That’s the core of the Revelation of the Method, something I’ve been studying and writing about for forty years. Human imbecility being what it is, and the state of the “conspiracy theory” movement being more or less an adjunct of the Cryptocracy itself (with some honorable exceptions), the Revelation of the Method has yet to penetrate the national conversation.
I always look for the set and the setting, the genius loci of occult locations, assassinations and ritual murders, from the high strangeness which has occurred on the 33rd degree of north parallel latitude to the “psychic highway” in the east, along the 42nd degree line.
Butler is located in the region of western Pennsylvania where a massive populist tax rebellion against George Washington and Alexander Hamilton took place in the 1790s, culminating in a showdown in 1794. There was a festival July 13 about 60 miles south of Butler commemorating the uprising. A colleague was distributing 100 copies of my history of the Whiskey Insurrection at the festival, on the afternoon of the shooting.
Those tax rebels who took on the Federal government didn’t have television and Internet. They were close to the land; mostly farmers. There was little or no money in the sense we know it. They distilled their abundant rye crop into whiskey, which became the medium of exchange. President Washington commissioned Secretary of the Treasury Hamilton to tax those yeomen farmer-distillers grievously. In response they shook the nation with a revolt the likes of which would not be seen again until it was exceeded on April 12, 1861.
Perhaps it is a coincidence that Donald Trump was shot in the old stomping grounds of the farmer insurrectionists of yesteryear, who were so bitterly detested by the Federalists of that time.
Who benefits from the attack?
Why was the open air shooting of the leading candidate for president and himself the former president —which was accompanied by unprecedented visual, audio, photographic and digital documentation (even the bullet speeding in midair was captured on film)—mounted in the first place? Cui bono?
Was the extraordinary moment out of central casting, when a bloodied Trump raised his fist into the air against a backdrop of the American flag, amid seemingly stalwart bodyguards supporting him, planned in advance?
Was this the reason why, against Secret Service protocol, he was permitted to stand and offer himself as an easy target when other shooters may have been near? The resulting photo is an enduring, potentially legendary icon of heroic defiance, rivaling the flag-raising on Iwo Jima.
Mr. Trump is the most heavily committed Israeli war-Zionist candidate for the presidency. If he henceforth behaves graciously and humbly, his moral and political capital will be sky high. To be elected he might not need to do much more between now and November than speak generally about binding wounds and healing America. What occurred on 7/13/24 will go a long way toward carrying him into the White House, if he maintains the high moral ground and eschews scratch and claw, gutter politics. Granted that in view of his past conduct, that’s a big “if.”
Among the many questions that confront us, three seem most pressing: was it the intention of the Cryptocracy to kill Trump, or was his mild wounding deliberate?
How was Thomas Matthew Crooks selected and groomed to act as he did (assuming it was him on that roof)?
Will anyone be able to awaken the American people to the human alchemy that is demoralizing and paralyzing us with apathy and fatigue by means of the Revelation of the Method process? Or will the Overlords always have the last laugh?

Something occurred to me today. Just as we will never know the whole truth of the Kennedy assassination, the World Trade Center, exactly who were the blackmailed guests on Epstein's island etc etc, we will never know the whole truth about the now deceased shooter Crooks.
But we no longer need to know any of those details.
Because anyone who has not already sacrificed their mind to the custom made pseudo-reality knows now and will always know in future that the official narrative is a lie. The lie is exposed as such the instant the event takes place. In a sense, what is being murdered is reality itself. Serial killings.
Thank God for you, Michael. I immediately felt the phoniness of the event; the corny way Trump pushed aside his bodyguards to raise his fists "in defiance" (lol!) aped the script of a bad B movie. No one else seemed to see it... Are we all now actors in this bad... and utterly improbable, unreal B movie??? I will now insist that my adult sons read your Twilight Language. While it's advanced reading for the barely awake, there is no time to lose. By the way, Trump's choice of the corporate puppet J D Vance ("hillbilly", yeah, right, lol again!) confirms that bigger and more sophisticated tech forces are coalescing around him. Peter Thiel, a close associate of Vance, will "guide" Trump into introducing digital ID and other nightmarish "technology"... including the technology of mass mind control such as was on display in Pennsylvania. Horrible, horrible.
