Alleged Trump Shooter Ryan Routh Also In A BlackRock Ad Just Like Thomas Crooks?

What are the odds that both Thomas Crooks AND Ryan Routh (the two alleged Trump shooters separated by two months) would both have been featured in BlackRock commercials?

Off the charts.

It’s already strange enough that Thomas Crooks was in one, but both of them?

That’s the story that started spreading early this morning:

And here:

And here:

You can see a portion of the alleged ad here:

And yes, that would be mind-blowing if true, but is it?

We know BlackRock has their tentacles into everything….

Well, according to BlackRock itself, the news is NOT true:

While not typically my favorite site, I’ll post this Fact-Check from Newsweek for fair-and-balanced reporting:

What appears to be a second Donald Trump assassination attempt in less than just over two months has led to a slew of conspiratorial theorizing behind suspect Ryan Routh and his motivations.

Shots were fired at Trump National Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida, on Sunday, where Trump, the Republican presidential nominee, was golfing, according to multiple reports. The former president, who was uninjured, returned to his home at Mar-a-Lago club Palm Beach after the incident.

Amid the speculation surrounding Routh, social media posts shared on Monday claimed he had appeared in a video for the investment firm BlackRock.

The Claim

A post on X, formerly Twitter, by user @BGatesIsaPyscho posted on September 16, 2024, viewed 147,100 times said “🚨🇺🇸 Absolutely No Bloody Way

“The latest Trump would be assassin – Ryan Routh ALSO appeared in a Blackrock Commerical just like Thomas Crooks.

“That means BOTH featured in Global Wealth management firm’s Commercial.

“THESE ARENT COINCIDIENCES.

“They love their symbolism.”

The post included a video of what appeared to be a pro-Ukrainian protest featuring what looked like Ryan Routh.

The Facts

CNN chief law enforcement and intelligence analyst John Miller reported Sunday afternoon that Routh’s social media accounts have focused on his “self-proclaimed involvement” in the war in Ukraine, including his supposed effort to recruit soldiers to fight in the conflict. Routh also claimed to have fought in Ukraine as it continues to hold off Russia’s invasion.

BlackRock, a repeat subject of conspiratorial theories, recently pledged financial support to Ukraine joining a group of investors committing $15 billion to the country’s reconstruction, as reported by Quartz.

However, BlackRock did not produce the video featuring Routh.

Newsweek reached out to a BlackRock media representative via email for comment.

The video was created in 2022, publicizing protesters demanding the safe evacuation of Ukrainian soldiers defending the besieged Avovstal Iron and Steel Works in Mariupol.

The Associated Press photographed Routh at the protest in Kyiv’s Independence Square on April 30, 2022. Other outlets covering the event also photographed Routh.

Pizzagate conspiracy theorist Jack Posobiec posted a longer version of the video. Although Posobiec did not make the BlackRock ad claim, he did say the video was “propaganda for Azov battalion” and shared more of the original footage.

The Azov Brigade rose out of the volunteer Azov Battalion, rooted in far-right and ultranationalist ideology. The fighters have been on the front lines fighting pro-Moscow separatists in Ukraine since 2014; the battalion’s founders were accused of having neo-Nazi sentiments.

The brigade’s current members have rejected these ties, distancing themselves from the battalion’s reputation since the outbreak of full-scale war in Ukraine in February 2022. The brigade is now a part of Ukraine’s National Guard and has been lauded as one of the most effective fighting forces.

It’s not clear who produced the video, but the protest was to demand the safe return of Ukrainian soldiers. While family members of Azov troops flew the battalion’s crest and flags at the protest, one report of the protest said relatives of the 36th Marine Brigade and other units of the Ukrainian army were at the event.

In any case, the claim that Routh appeared in a BlackRock ad is false.

This false claim is almost certainly inspired by Thomas Matthew Crooks, the suspect in Trump’s attempted assassination in Pennsylvania on July 13, who did appear briefly in an ad for BlackRock in 2022.

BlackRock confirmed Crooks’ appearance, telling CBS MoneyWatch he was not paid or hired as an actor.

“In 2022, we ran an ad featuring a teacher from Bethel Park High School, in which several unpaid students briefly appeared in the background, including Thomas Matthew Crooks,” BlackRock said in a statement.

“We will make all video footage available to the appropriate authorities, and we have removed the video from circulation out of respect for the victims.”

The Ruling

False.

While it does appear that Ryan Routh is in the video, it is not an ad for BlackRock. It is footage from a protest in April 2022, held in Kyiv’s Independence Square, where the relatives of the Ukrainian military demanded the safe return of their families from besieged Avovstal Iron and Steel Works in Mariupol.

So here’s what DOES appear to be true….

Ryan Routh IS in the video that is circulating.

It’s quite strange.

It DOES appear to be a propaganda ad for the Azov battalion.

BlackRock HAS been rumored to be actively funding Ukraine, although they deny that.

So there’s a TON of smoke here.

This guy is very strange, not much makes sense, he’s deeply embedded with Ukraine, and almost nothing about his story or how he got outside Trump’s golf course without any prior notice makes any sense.

Another thing that’s true is he was interviewed by Newsweek (ironically) back in 2022.

How does this man just strangely keep popping up?

Speaking of BlackRock…..

Have you seen this?

THIS Is How We Defeat BlackRock, Vanguard and the ESG-DEI Nightmare — Can I Count On You?

This may be one of the most important articles I’ve published in a while…

Let me explain why.

I’ll start at the beginning and I think you’ll really get it by the time I hit the end.

Ok, so why do we even care about BlackRock, Vanguard and State Street in the first place?

And who are they?

They are the three largest Asset Managers in the world.

Essentially, and this is no exaggeration, they are the people pulling the strings in the background.

These are the “Masters of the Universe”.

ADVERTISEMENT

Larry Fink runs BlackRock and he is almost certainly more powerful than the President of the United States.

That’s not an exaggeration, and I’ll explain to you why in just a minute.

First, let’s start here with something called the “Illusion of Choice”.

Take a look at the image below….

You THINK there are all of these different brands to choose from out there, but they are really owned by TEN big corporations.

That’s true in food:

And it’s also true in Media.

Same exact thing….

You think there are a bunch of Newspapers, TV channels, radio stations, websites — but in 2011, SIX corporations controlled 90% of it all.

Ok, but that’s just the tip of the iceberg.

Because as bad as that is, here’s the part most people don’t tell you.

It’s actually way worse than that because there’s another whole layer on the pyramid at the very top that they never tell you about.

In fact, I bet most people reading this have never heard of BlackRock, Vanguard or State Street — or if you’ve heard about them you probably don’t know exactly what they do.

Or if you DO know exactly what they do, I bet you may never have realized why it’s a giant problem.

So let me explain it to you in real simple terms, and I think it will make a lot of sense.

Most people are paid every two weeks, usually on a Friday.

And most people have been coached to put 6% of their salary into their 401k and/or some other amount up to the employer match.

Great, right?

Well, here’s what’s actually happening.

Most of those funds go into ETFs and other investment vehicles managed by, you guessed it, BlackRock, Vanguard and State Street.

So they’ve built a system where millions upon millions of dollars are flowing in to them via YOUR 401k’s every two weeks.

You bust your butt at work and get a paycheck and you’ve been coached to give 6% of that check to these “Big 3”.

The Big 3 then get bigger and bigger and bigger every Friday!

What a great system, right?

For them it is.

And what are you told about it?

Almost nothing.

In fact, what do they tell you?

When you start your job, they tell you to set up your 401k auto-donation and then “forget about it”.

Isn’t that what they say?

Don’t even think about it!

The money will be there for you when you turn 65, but don’t think about it until then.

And DEFINITELY don’t ask who’s managing it or what they’re doing with it.

My friend Patrick Bet-David has been all over this, breaking the story wide open.

He was on Joe Rogan last week and he dropped this bombshell….

You think those charts above are bad?

That’s not even the worst of it.

Of the TEN food corporations and SIX media corporations, the control and ownership is actually way more centralized than that.

Remember all that money coming in every Friday from YOUR paychecks?

That goes to the Big 3, and they use it to own all of those companies.

So it’s not even the Big 10 Food Companies or the Big 6 Media companies….it’s just the Big 3.

And of the Big 3 it’s really mostly the Big 2.

Many believe the Big 2 may eventually take over State Street.

For those who like stats, here’s the stat for you:  88% of the companies in the S&P 500 has one of the Big 3 as that company’s biggest shareholder.

PBD breaks it all down here:

So…why do I tell you all of that?

Because when you centralize ownership and control, bad things start to happen.

What starts to happen is the Big 3 and their “affiliates” create things like ESG and DEI scores.

ESG stands for Environmental, Social and Governance and it’s a score they give to companies to “keep them in line.”

So is DEI, which stands for Diversity, Equity and Inclusion.

Don’t follow enough Far-Left “social” trends — not promoting enough Trans agenda or LGBTQ agenda or Climate Change agenda (i.e. Bud Light, Target, etc.)?

Then your score takes a huge hit!

That really explains a lot, doesn’t it?

Because I can’t tell you how many conversations I’ve been in with people who say: this stuff doesn’t make any sense!  Why are these companies doing this?  Why would Bud Light TANK their company?  They know it’s not going to play well to the people who buy their beer?

THAT. DOESN’T. MAKE. SENSE!

And you’d be right to say that, but only if you assume Bud Light is trying to please the people who buy its products.

What if Bud Light had a higher master?

What if Bud Light was more concerned with its ESG score?

What if all the Executives at Bud Light knew that if their ESG score dropped too low, then their #1 Shareholder (the Big 3) would fire them and replace them with someone who would be “ESG Friendly”?

What if you’re pulling in a total comp package as a top exec in the $20 million range and your choice is to push the Far Left agenda and push LGBTQ or know that you’ll be fired and replaced in a year by the Big 3?

What do you do?

NOW what decision would you make?

Now is it suddenly making a lot more sense?

And there you have it.

Now I think you get it.

Now suddenly every single corporation turning their logo to the Rainbow Flag in June suddenly makes a lot of sense.

Once again, here is my friend PBD explaining ESG in much more detail:

Now let’s recap…

Do you see how insidious this is?

A big chunk of YOUR paycheck goes to prop up the Big 3 every single Friday, they get bigger and stronger, they use that money to buy all the major corporations in the world, and then they force them to do things you would NEVER support.

Sick, right?

Now let me bring this in for a landing…

And here’s why I’m telling you about this.

Because we don’t just report the news here and then say “good luck”!

No, we give you solutions!

Now back to my Mission and my solution.

I figured I would eventually need to build a Parallel-Economy from the ground up.

I knew that would be a ton of work.

So it was on my back-burner.

In fact, it had been there on my back-burner since about 2016.

Until suddenly, in January of 2023, I connected with a company I had never heard of before….but they’re MASSIVE.

They’ve been in business for over 35 years and they’re a VERY pro-American, pro-Liberty, pro-Conservative values company!

They’re an American based, Made-In-America, warehoused-in-America, shipped-from-America company!

In fact, they’re the last private, family-owned, pro-American consumer goods company left in America NOT owned by those 11 companies I showed you above.

Oh, and what if I told you the products are BETTER and often CHEAPER than what you get from those 11 companies above?

Yes, for real.

And their founder was once placed on Barack Hussein Obama’s list of the Top 10 most “Dangerous Conservatives” in America?

(a list I one day hope to make myself!)

Once I learned all of that, I knew I no longer had to build this from the ground-up by myself, I simply needed to partner with this awesome company to help them get the word out.

So on top of being the last Family-owned major consumer goods manufacturer not part of the Big-11, comparable or often lower prices, supporting American jobs and families, here’s the part that ties in to the main point of this article”.

Non-toxic products!

That means no Arsenic, Cadmium, and Lead in their Spices!

Which really, if we’re being honest, should be the bare minimum for everyone, right?

Stunning I even have to tell you that, but I guess I do!

But it also means no Red Dye 40 or flouride in the toothpaste or chemicals in the cleaning products, or Deet in the mosquito repellant.

What novel concepts, right?

Oh, and Black Angus beef, pasture raised on hundreds of thousands of acres.

Free roaming with plenty of open air between all the cattle.

Grass fed.

No hormones and no antibiotics.  Never!

Oh, and it’s CHEAPER than Omaha Steaks!

But that’s a whole other topic!

Sound good to anyone else?

Me too!

The reason you’ve never heard of them is because it’s Invite Only.

I can get you in, but you can’t just go sign up.

They only want people on the same mission to join and they’re happy to say “no” to the Far-Left Libs!

They’ve been doing it for 37 years and it’s been working great.

Everyone gets a personal, white glove, concierge customer service support to get you access to everything they have.

Imagine that!

No call centers from India.

Just real, friendly, helpful and NICE Americans helping Americans!

Wow, like going back in a time-machine.

So it is Invite only…and good thing you know someone that has the invites….(me!).

If you’d like to find out more and get a FREE personal invite, just go here and tell them Noah sent you:  https://SwitchWithNoah.com

It’s the real deal, and because they don’t raise the Black Angus like the big companies do, they may have the SHUT OFF invites if they grow too fast.

So if you want in, let me know soon.

There’s only one pro-American, American made and manufactured, chemical free, toxin free, hormone free, company left….and I’m teaming up with them to FIGHT BACK!

Who’s with me?

I know I tend to get concerned when I get messages from numbers I don’t recognize, but if you request a Free Invite (Link here: https://SwitchWithNoah.com) you WILL have someone from my Inner Circle reach out to you….so be ready!

These are awesome people and I think you’ll love getting a chance to talk with them.

Your friend,

– Noah
