Bidding. Tbs details emerging about the suspect and the second Assassination Attempt, he left a letter detailing planning, what he planned to do eight days ago at the former president s Golf Club in newly released Court Documents Prosecutors say Ryan Ruth wrote that quote, this was an Assassination Attempt on Donald Trump and urging others to quote complete the Job And Quote cnns Randi Kaye joins us now from west Palm Beach, florida. Randi, youve been reading through these documents. Youre seeing this new letter thats emerged. Apparently theres a photo of the rifle and so on. What can you tell us good morning, jim. We havent looking through these documents as Prosecutions Filing and this letter was addressed from Ryan Ruth to the world and it also reads, this was an Assassination Attempt on Donald Trump, but i failed you. He writes, i tried my best and gave it all the gumption i could muster. It is up to you now. Finish the job and i will offer 150,000 to whomever can complete the job. That is evidenced that will No Doubt be discussed in court at this detention hearing this morning. We also have learned from these filings, jim, that a witness told officials that ruth had dropped off a box at his home months ago and in that box was ammunition, a metal pipe, tools for phones and various letters, including the one that we were just reading to you. Also, there were photos of the guns that you mentioned. This is also new in the filings is a colored picture of the gun it also shows us pictures of 11 bullets and that extended Magazine Scope also some new information, jim, coming from these filings has to do with a search of ruths car. They apparently found six Cell Phones and included in one of those Cell Phones was a search. They found a search that he had done on google from how to get from Palm Beach county to mexico, Palm Beach county is where trump international Golf Club is and where we are today. Also there Cell Phone data that actually puts Ryan Ruth around maralago and around trump international Golf Club, many weeks before this incident occurred, starting on August 18 and going until september 15, which was the day of the incident. Apparently, he had been around that area multiple times according to to the Prosecutions Filing also, there was a list of dates and venues, a handwritten lists that officials got their hands on apparently from Ryan Ruth allegedly from him. This would be showing trumps events that he had both past and future events, some leading up to this 20 he 24 election day. Also, there was detailed in this filing about Routes Position where he was at trump international golf course. The filing says that he was quote, directly in line with the very next whole jim, as you know, Donald Trump was on the fifth hole of trump international and Secret Service was in there Golf Cart looking on the fence. Theyre there were one whole ahead of him trying to secure the area that would be the sixth hole where they spotted that rifle allegedly belonging to Ryan Ruth sticking out through the fence. So they are now saying that he was directly in line with the sixth hole, which is interesting because Secret Service has said that he never fired a shot at former president. It was when the Secret Service and fired on him that he fled. Jim all right. Randi kaye. Thank you very much with that new information. A breaking this morning. We appreciate it also new this morning, a defiant Mark Robinson is back on the Campaign Trail despite an exodus of his top aides, the controversial republican nominee for North Carolina the governor is holding events just a day after several key campaign official step down. Heres what he said. Just a short time ago Business People were here for all those parents out there who are losing their children to fentanyl volatiles people out there that are struggling to keep a small businesses open. Were here for the people who are were here for the people who are struggling to get their children a decent education. Were not here to talk about 15 or 20yearold salacious false lies. They dont want to talk about whats going on right now. They want to talk about what possibly happened 15 years ago the Staff Aff resignations Folla Cnn Investigation that on Earth Graphic and inflammatory Comments Robinson made several years ago on a porn website. He denies making those posts and cnns Dianne Gallagher joins me from wilkesbarre, North Carolina dianne, what else is robinson saying this morning jim this is the first appearance by robinson since the more than half a dozen senior Campaign Staff resigned this weekend and about several of the 45 to 50 supporters who showed up here today. Well, farro said thats precisely what made them come. They wanted to show support for robinson and what they described as very difficult time for him. Robinson didnt directly address those allegations beyond calling them Salacious Lies from the past that may or may not have happened when he spoke to supporters, but he did address that and the campaign departures. When he spoke with press, as soon as he finished the event, take a listen we have full confidence that we can go on. Were getting resumes from all over. Were getting offers from all over people jumping in to help us. Weve made a ton of friends in this thing since weve been in a lot of talented people right now are reaching out to us and were riding the process right now, a foreman, a team that we know can still lead us to victory. So we have full confidence in our ability to keep going. But the timing of that, them walking away from her brightening the top determined that matter. Its not its not the timing. Its how you react. And we are ready to react and were doing it right now. Were getting robinson. Youve talked about the reporting being Salacious Lies, not true have you taken steps than two weeks not you . Absolutely. All we absolutely all were wearing talks right now everything up to legal counsel to take cnn to task for what they have done to us we are going after okay. We are going to go after him for what theyve done, but we have five weeks left in this race, folks make no mistake about it. We are not going to let Cnn Dollars off of our mission. Our mission is quite i am dismayed about the fact as i said before think about how many people out there right now, right in the place where we are right now, who are hooked on fentanyl, who are hooked on opioids and how many will die to night because of think about whats going on on our border. Think about whats going on on the World Stage and this is what you, this is what you choose to focus all. Youve got these news cameras, news reports, pens, pencils, your microphones. This is what youre focused on youre not focused on the things that we talked about standing up there Mount Or Economy youre not focused on those things i am am going to remain focused on those things and you better you better understand. I am coming after full cnn full throated order to put the people first in order to put the people first, weve got to concentrate on this campaign going to do thats exactly what were going to do, like records dont know more questions, no more questions more questions because joe from greensboro and brings No Robinson may be talking about the fact that were focusing on that, but i can tell you there were plenty of republicans in North Carolina who are as well concerned about what the Kfile Investigation as well as a significant Staff Departure means potentially for downballot republican candidates here in North Carolina, jim, and look at the top of the ticket. Former President Donald Trump was in North Carolina he was in wilmington on saturday. He did not invite Lieutenant Governor Robinson to appear with him on stage. Robinson had a small public event at a speedway instead in a different part of the state, didnt even mention robinson by name at that. And this is someone who at one point called Martin Luther King junior youre on steroids. This is a person who had a Speaking Position at the rnc earlier this summer. And so while he is trying to focus on the campaign, i will tell you that other republicans here in the state of North Carolina are very concerned about that investigation, as well as the Campaign Shakeup yeah. I mean, dianne, did Mark Robinson explain why these staffers are leaving if the if the report from this network is not true no, they said that they have stepped away on their own accord. They wish them well and the staffers themselves just saying this was something that happened on their own volition so they have not gone into the specific details, but the timing of course, coming just days after that Kfile Investigation was published all right. Dianne gallagher. Thank you very much. And cnns Kristen Holmes is here with me now. As dion mentioned, robinson was not invited to trumps rally over the weekend in North Carolina again, if Theres Something wrong with the reporting, you would think Donald Trump would have them up on Stage Talk about them, didnt even mention them at this rally this weekend. Yeah i mean, but you also may i think that if this reporting is true that Donald Trump would be out there disavow him and saying that he shouldnt be running for office. But again, Donald Trump has not said anything about it at all remaining completely silent and we have absolute faith in our reporting that lee is r Mark Robinsons words from this porn forum. Now, Donald Trump, i am told, is it does not likely to invite Mark Robinson to any former or future events he is expected to be in North Carolina again later this week, we shouldnt see Mark Robinson with him if that holds him not inviting him to any of these events. But in terms of disavowing them or does it only what Donald Trump himself has said about Mark Robinson . We havent seen any indication that that is happening. Now, look, when it comes to the ticket asking him to get off the ticket, thats not possible. We know that the ballots have already gone out. Those military ballots as well as Absentee Ballots with Mark Robinsons name at the top of the ticket. But there is huge amount of concern as diane said, among republicans, that this is going to hurt Donald Trump. If you look at the most recent polling, the New York Times put out today, it is well within them the margin of error has Donald Trump leading by about two points. Again, within the margin of error, neither Side Harris or trump is going to take that for granted. They want to win the state of North Carolina, which has gotten increasingly closer since Kamala Harris was boosted to the top of the ticket, this could hurt him. The question is, what would hurt him more . Him coming out and disavowing Mark Robinson are just leaving it alone and it clearly, as at this point that campaign things just not saying anything is the right move for the former president. Yeah. And i mean, i have to think at this point, if Mark Robinson you know, if hes being unfairly maligned the Trump Campaign would be coming out and embracing again they must, they must think inside the Trump Campaign that this is toxic to. Well, i will say talking to senior advisers, they saw that Mark Robinson was a problem for a long time. This is just the latest and this is obviously the worst right . This is just, this is just the worst of what we have seen, but he has caused problem after problem for them at one point went to an event North Carolina and he was speaking before Donald Trump is taking the stage and the campaign made sure to tell us that he was not introducing the president , even though he was speaking before him, they were going to have someone else or voice of god introduced Donald Trump, which seemed like a very, very determined are very specific clarification that were making their they dont want them to be lumped together. But as you said, he has praised robinson multiple times, so nothing on his part, theyre about him coming out and saying, you know, i take back those comments and they sound pretty some sympatric you in terms of going after the press and yet Mark Robinson not onstage with Donald Trump this weekend, not mentioned by Donald Trump as we go to Kristen Holmes.
