Authorities believe the horrifying murder of two parents by their adolescent son earlier this year was only the beginning of a scheme that would lead to a fourth assassination attempt on President Donald Trump, they claimed Sunday.
Investigators believe that Nikita Casap, a 17-year-old boy from Waukesha, Wisconsin, committed a double homicide, leaving his mother and stepfather dead as he sought independence and resources to carry out a presidential attack.
“The killing of his parents appeared to be an effort to obtain the financial means and autonomy necessary to carry out his plan,” FBI agents state in a recent affidavit.
Last week, authorities confined Casap pending his trial. He is facing two counts of first-degree homicide, among other accusations.
According to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, the FBI, which is cooperating with federal prosecutors to move the case forward, believes there is probable cause to file charges for preparing a presidential assassination, conspiracy, and the use of weapons of mass devastation.
On February 28th, local cops discovered Tatiana Casap and Donald Mayer’s remains during a wellness check at their Cider Hills Drive home in Waukesha.
Both were discovered shot and buried beneath piles of garments at a home where Nikita Casap also lived. According to the complaint, the 17-year-old may have been at the house for up to 12 days with both bodies there.
In late March, prosecutors filed a criminal complaint incorporating testimony from Casap’s female student at Waukesha West High School, who claimed to have read a three-page manifesto on his phone asking for President Trump’s assassination. According to the affidavit, his manifesto includes ideas about building bombs and orchestrating a terrorist strike.
A search warrant was executed for Mayer’s SUV, and officers uncovered a pried-open safe, gadgets, including an iPad from the Waukesha School District, jewelry, and nearly $14,000, according to the outlet. They note that Casap drove the vehicle across state boundaries to obtain the supplies he sought.
The young man’s manifesto included white supremacist sentiments and a copy of “The Order of Nine Angels,” a neo-Nazi journal.
According to officials, Casap had partially paid for a drone and explosive supplies to carry out an attack before being apprehended.
Casap is still imprisoned on a $1 million bond. He is scheduled for arraignment on May 7th.
There have been three more attempts or conspiracies against President Trump’s life. On July 15th, 2024, he was hit by a rifle round in Butler, Pennsylvania, and one month later, he was almost shot again when a gunman was discovered lurking in the bushes of his West Palm Beach home while he played golf.
Then, in February, Politico claimed that officials unearthed a scheme by Iranian agents last year to target Trump’s plane with surface-to-air missiles. It was thought they planned to strike during the 2024 presidential election.
A stunning new report from CNN’s data cruncher Harry Enten reveals a tectonic shift in American politics during the age of President Trump.
During a Friday segment with host Kate Bolduan, Enten revealed that new data clearly show that Republicans have replaced Democrats as the “party of the people” and that the party of the Donkey now counts Americans with college degrees as its base.
“Throughout all of this one big question has been and continues to be how much pain are Americans — will Americans have to endure in this trade war, and how much will they be OK enduring. A new poll out offers maybe some insight into that feeling showing that Americans are split when asked which party cares most about their needs,” Bolduan said to begin the segment before bringing Enten in.
“This to me is one of the most shocking pieces of poll data that I truly truthfully have seen this year or maybe in any prior year,” Enten began, surprising Bolduan.
“Cares more about the needs for people like you. We’ve got a tie even after this tariff war had already started, split between Democrats and Republicans on how people feel which party cares more for needs of people like you. And why is that so surprising? Because I want you to take a look at prior years,” Enten said.
“Democrats always lead on this question. Back in 2017, before the 2018 midterms, 13- point lead. Two thousand five, a 23-point lead for Democrats. In 1994, which was a big Republican year, a 19-point lead for Democrats,” he said.
“And now all of a sudden, a tie. All of a sudden, the Democrats, who were the party of the people, no more — no more. We get a tie on this question on a question that has traditionally overwhelmingly been a Democratic advantage — people for — party — which party cares more for the needs of people like you,” he continued. “It’s truly something I would not have expected to see, especially after this tariff war had begun.”
“Where are — where does it show that Republicans are making the most gains?” Bolduan asked.
“Again, you talk about party of the people. Look at this. Cares for the needs of people like yourself. Look here. We’ve got non- college, and we’ve got those with a college degree. Among those with a college degree it’s the same score, plus-18 points for Democrats in 2017, plus-18 points for Democrats now,” the data cruncher said.
“But look among non-college voters. Look here. It was plus-seven for Democrats in 2017 and now Republicans an overwhelmingly gain, plus- nine points. That is, the gains have been concentrated, at least within he last decade, among voters without a college degree — the working class. That is where Republicans have gained even since the beginning of the Donald Trump administration,” Enten continued.
