Did Trump avoid a third attempt?

Today Donald Trump has scheduled a rally at the Nassau Veterans’ Memorial Coliseum, in Uniondale, Nassau County, New York. But this morning, a K9 team found a barrel full of explosives in a vehicle trying to get in. Or did they? By late morning, the Nassau Police Department were denying everything. They even said a civilian training his dog to sniff bombs, turned in a false alarm. Who is telling the truth? More to the point, who has a motive to lie? And mightn’t those who have issued a decree (or fatwa or however one says it in Farsi) that Donald Trump must die, have added the time-honored enhancement at all costs?

Latest at the Trump rally in Nassau County

Jordan Conradson (The Gateway Pundit) published the first report at 10:34 a.m. EDT. Conradson began with a post by independent journalist James Lalino, who apparently has sources within the Nassau County Police Department.

Sources in the Nassau County Police Department just told me that “the perimeter was breached and a blue barrel was removed” from the area surrounding tonight’s Trump rally site.

Source said “During K9, doing their checks, they found an explosive device in one of the vehicles and that driver ended up running into the woods. No one saw if he had anything on him, they just saw him take off running. A lot of cars are now parking, they’re lining up on Hempstead Turnpike, just parking on the grass. Even over at Eisenhower Park, they’re just parking over there.”

A few minutes later, Newsweek had a “debunking” report. They quoted official NCPD spokesmen:

We did respond to a suspicious occurrence in the vicinity of the Nassau Coliseum, however there was no validity of an explosive device being found… We’re unsure where this information originated, but we can confirm that no explosives were discovered.

The Daily Mail had a similar “debunking” report.

A quarter hour later, the NCPD posted a terse statement:

Reports that an explosive device was found at the Nassau Coliseum are FALSE.

Fifteen minutes after this, they left a detailed statement:

From Commissioner of Police Patrick Ryder:

Reports of explosives being found at the site are unfounded. There is a person who is being questioned who may have been training a bomb detection dog near the site. The individual with the bomb dog falsely reported explosives being found, and that individual is currently being detained by the police.

Reaction to the NCPD posts are mostly skeptical, to say the least.

Jeremy at The Quartering expressed similar skepticism.

Jeremy points out that no person, training a dog for “scent work,” would pick such a crowded venue. More likely, he suspects that the person now under detention, did have his dog with him. That dog did detect an explosive device, or explosive chemicals – and the police want to hide this fact. Lalino’s report that an NCPD K9 sniffed out a bomb, begs explanation.

At time of writing, Team Trump has not canceled the event. More to the point, no law-enforcement agency wants to admit that anything untoward has happened.

Further questions

People interested in attending the rally had requested 60,000 tickets at last report. The Nassau Coliseum holds only 16,000, so the rest will watch outside, on large screens.

As this afternoon wore on, the excitement, which at first died down, ramped up again. Christina Laila dropped another report at 4:00 p.m. It included two posts, some of which quoted other posts:

This last post contained the most interesting insight:

If you look into historically suspicious events, you’ll see a pattern in which there is some kind of training exercise or drill whose subject matter almost exactly overlaps with the real life thing that allegedly happens. This allows for plausible deniability when feds are caught—it was just confusion from the exercise. I’m not saying that this is what’s happened here, but its interesting to point out this pattern.

This goes along with the theory that Jeremy at The Quartering advanced. Which is: someone did try to smuggle explosives into the venue, and someone else caught him. Furthermore, that someone else was not a civilian, but was in fact an NCPD K9 officer.Now federal authorities have said nothing, and local authorities are telling a totally illogical story to explain the events. Note particularly that the NCPD has not released the identity of their “suspect,” person-of-interest, whatever.

The good news is that someone defused a literally explosive situation. But the bad news is that we have yet another sign that federal authorities have been compromised.

Again CNAV renews its suggestion that Donald Trump build his own security force. Particularly when, as Napolitan News Service reports, one voter in six wants Trump dead. This figure includes twenty-eight percent of Democrats – and seven percent of Republicans.
