President Donald Trump survived the second attempted assassination last weekend as he faces increasing threats against his life.
Trump was rushed from the scene and he played golf in Florida while the Secret Service stepped in to neutralize the threat from armed would-be assassin Ryan Routh.
However, Routh has a long criminal history and it has now emerged that federal authorities were warned about his behavior but ignored it.
U.S. officials apparently did little with the warnings from Americans who had contact with Routh.
Authorities received warnings prompted by Routh’s odd behavior in Ukraine, as Breitbart News reported.
On Sunday, as the 45th president was playing golf at Trump National Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida, Routh was caught hiding in the bushes while heavily armed.
On Monday, Routh faced federal charges of being a felon in possession of a handgun.
A self-published book in which Routh urged the terrorist-supporting government of Iran to murder Trump was one of many “red flags” that adorned Routh’s record.
Among his long list of criminal charges, he was found in possession of a “weapon of mass destruction” in the year 2002.
This was a firearm that had been unlawfully modified to fire in a fully automatic manner.
Routh was a fervent and unwavering supporter of the Ukrainian people.
Almost immediately after the beginning of the Russian invasion in February 2022, he arrived there, looking to help.
His first intention was to offer himself as a foreign recruit for the Ukrainian military.
However, after the Ukrainian government rejected his offer of service, he went on to recruit other individuals.
Chelsea Walsh, a nurse, informed the Wall Street Journal on Monday that she encountered Routh on multiple occasions in Kyiv.
She determined that he was “among the most dangerous Americans she met during her month-and-a-half-long stint in Ukraine.”
Walsh was so concerned by Routh’s actions that she informed Customs and Border Protection (CBP) about him upon her return to the United States.
She provided the Central Prosecutor’s Bureau (CPB) with a notebook in which she detailed the behavior of more than a dozen foreign nationals in Ukraine.
Routh was the most prominent individual on the list.
He was flagged for engaging in “predatory behavior.”
Walsh stated that she initially considered Routh to be “eccentric, but not dangerous.”
However, she later revised her assessment after maintaining a consistent relationship with him.
She said this was particularly in light of Routh’s repeated references to assassinating world leaders.
According to Sarah Adams, a former CIA officer and American with experience in Ukraine, Routh earned a reputation among aid organizations as a “fraudster” and “whack job.”
Routh frequently asserted that he was recruiting foreign combatants as an agent of the Ukrainian government, among other disturbing behaviors.
In reality, this was not the case.
