The authorities, the media, and the legal system worked hard to hide the manifesto of the transgender Covenant school shooter from the public using every scheme imaginable. But even without such efforts, most of the notes and messages left behind by terrorists and mass shooters never see the light of day. (I’ve reviewed plenty of them and trust me they’re not very interesting.) Even when they appear in public federal charging documents, the media tends not to quote or quote them very sparingly.

But the latest Trump assassin’s note is a headline.

Suspect in Trump shooting attempt urged others to ‘finish the job’ – Politico

As does Politico.

Multiple media outlets felt the need to quote sections of the letter stating, “This was an assassination attempt on Donald Trump but I failed you. I tried my best and gave it all the gumption I could muster. It is up to you now to finish the job and I will offer $150,000 to whoever can complete the job.”

Along with political criticisms of Trump.

The media has often run Democrat attack ads for free, but this is an assassination ad.

It also once again mentions the gunman’s obsession with Iran. “He ended relations with Iran like a child and now the Middle East has unraveled.” Considering the attempted killer’s obsession with foreign wars, and Iran’s obsession with taking out Trump, it raises the question of whether the Iranians found themselves a useful idiot.

The media certainly has.
