Tinfoil hat time. By no means am I going to convince anyone with this short article that Ryan Wesley Routh (or Thomas Michael Crooks, for that matter) is an asset for the Deep State. That is not the intention because to “prove” it would be as impossible as “proving” anything the Deep State does.
All I want is for our readers to ask questions. And for this particular exercise we won’t look into all of the curious circumstances surrounding Crooks, the first would-be Trump assassin; perhaps some other day we’ll do that.
Routh’s attempted assassination of Trump will be downplayed by the vast majority on both sides of the political aisle as a crazy lone wolf. That narrative fits when we consider how crazy the dude appears to be. But EVERY Deep State asset since Lee Harvey Oswald has fit the mold of being a lone wolf crazy dude. That’s their modus operandi.
Here are five reasons I believe it’s likely that Routh is a Deep State asset…
Evidence of Contact With Government and Deep State
Like Crooks, Routh appears to have had contact with members of the intelligence community and possibly even members of the federal government. According to Mindy Robinson:
In case you were wondering….
The guy who tried to assassinate Trump today…Ryan Routh made several posts suggesting that he was working with or for the DOD and the US Embassy in regards to Ukraine. 🤔
Because of course.

Routh even appeared in Deep State Ukrainian propaganda:
🚨BREAKING: Ryan Routh was featured in an AZOV propaganda video in 2022. For those unaware, AZOV is a violent, far-right Ukrainian militia with neo-Nazi origins, notorious for its anti-Russian extremism—and supported by the CIA. Yet the media stays silent. pic.twitter.com/kfHvo6vZWx

Corporate Media “Tested” Him
He was also a subject for multiple corporate media outlets. For those who don’t know, the Deep State likes to test an asset’s ability to maintain their lies and/or programming by putting them on camera. Oftentimes they are tested as crisis actors before being deployed for bigger assignments.
According to Collin Rugg:
NEW: Suspected would-be Trump assas*in was previously interviewed by Newsweek Romania, started crying during the interview as he begged people to “come fight.”
Ryan Routh was arrested after an assas*ination attempt on Donald Trump.
In the video, Routh explained that he initially went to Ukraine to “fight” to support the Ukrainians.
Once he got to Kyiv, he said that he helped recruit people to get involved in the war.
“We need everyone here fighting… that’s why I’m in Kyiv so every project that I promote is about getting people here to support the Ukrainians.”
“When you talk to a 20-year-old guy that sold everything he owns to come here fight, that is heroism.”
“You know he’s coming here to risk his life for humanity for the Ukrainians.”

As Sean Davis highlighted, it’s important that all of his media contacts are investigated…

The “Oswald Vibe” of a Patsy
Exiled Deep State whistleblower Edward Snowden noticed something about Routh:
We know little so far, but w alleged Trump shooter’s personal and public participation in military activity in Ukraine, it is hard to imagine this White House’s agencies can claim zero contact—”clean hands.” Something of an Oswald vibe, here. Congress should get answers.
All the usual breaking news caveats apply here. Nobody knows what the facts are yet, which is precisely why the public needs rapid, reliable, and non-evasive answers from the agencies you pay to provide them.
I’m not saying this guy was some pro on somebody’s payroll, obviously—in my opinion, the guy just looks deranged. But that doesn’t mean the government didn’t have a hand in encouraging his past militancy, as we once did with Bin Laden. We had a word for it at the CIA: blowback.

The most important attribute of any Deep State asset on a high-value mission is the cover-up. Someone could be properly skilled and fully controlled by the Deep State, enough to make them perfect for a mission, but if there’s even the slightest chance they could be traced back to the puppet masters then they will not be used.
The best we’ve been able to connect both Crooks and Routh to the Deep State is through degrees of separation. Therefore, there can be no direct connection made. A weak assassin with no direct connections is better for the Deep State than a skilled assassin with direct ties.
Known Deep Staters Saying Outrageous Things to Distract Us
For every social media post questioning the official narrative about Routh, there are ten more posts focusing on the hideous responses from known Deep Staters like Alexander Vindman and David Frum.
The attack failed. Questions are being asked. The Deep State knows the easiest way to point the conversation away from them is to get others to be bombastic and unhinged. Conservative and alternative media are particularly targeted because we generally love highlighting how insane our political opponents are.
They even pulled in Vindman’s wife…
No ears were harmed. Carry on with your Sunday afternoon.

Trump has been inciting violence against his enemies for years. He douses a situation in gasoline, lights a match, & walks away claiming no responsibility.
Look at what is happening in Springfield, OH right now but he wants to claim he's a victim. You cannot have it both ways.
— Rachel Vindman 🇺🇸🦅🌻 (@natsechobbyist) September 15, 2024
Frum and others in corporate media were sent in to blame Trump himself, which is a surefire way to draw conservative and alternative media to focus on the “assassination apologists” instead of the would-be assassin or the Deep State…
Shortly after a leftist freak tried to assassinate my dad, @davidfrum of @TheAtlantic tweeted the below. Truly deranged that after two verified assassination attempts, this sicko responds by claiming, without any evidence, that he is actually the one guilty of inciting violence! pic.twitter.com/mFeEDmu3Yz

Timed to Bury a Bombshell
Of all of the theories surrounding the assassination attempt, this is by far the weakest but that doesn’t mean it’s not true. Within a couple of hours after a bombshell affidavit from an ABC News whistleblower drops that implicates the Harris campaign in debate cheating, the story was memory-holed by the assassination attempt.
The Harris campaign demanded fact-checks of Trump while negotiating for ABC News to not fact-check Harris. That alone is disqualifying for both the campaign to continue and for the network to participate in future debates, but it gets worse. They also colluded on which questions were not allowed to be asked. And the network sent the Harris campaign “sample questions” to help her have her talking points memorized. They did not do this for the Trump campaign.
This is blockbuster news and nobody’s talking about it now. Nobody will be talking about it the rest of the week. No meaningful coverage will occur. It’s been disappeared faster than a Clinton witness with zero repercussions for the campaign or the network.
Question Everything
Sometimes I feel it’s an exercise in futility to highlight these things. I have no expectation that anything official will come from it. Routh will be given the Insane-But-Justified-Lone-Wolf label by corporate media. Democrats and Republicans will debate blame. American citizens will reinforce their biases with very few changing their opinions about the election.
But every time I think it’s best to just let it go and focus on more productive commentary, I remind myself that even if only a handful of people are prompted to ask tough questions without expectations of truthful answers, it’s worthwhile.
The moral of the story is that however desperate you believe the UniParty Swamp, the Deep State, and the Globalist Elite Cabal are in their quest to prevent a second Trump term, it’s likely far worse than what you think. They see him as an existential threat who has a chance, albeit slight, of taking down their house of cards.
In other words, there is no boundary they won’t cross. We need to stay frosty. President Trump needs to be protected. The best thing we can do is pray our gratitude to God for protecting Trump today and our hope that He will continue to protect him going forward.
