(SQAUK) — A recent photograph capturing a bullet narrowly missing former President Donald Trump’s head has sparked a firestorm of controversy, with many questioning its authenticity. The image, taken by Pulitzer Prize-winning photographer Doug Mills, initially heralded as a stark representation of political volatility, is now under intense scrutiny for apparent alterations.
On closer examination, glaring inconsistencies have emerged. Critics point out the conspicuous absence of bleachers that were present during the rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. Furthermore, the sky in the photo appears unnaturally blue compared to other images taken on the same day. Such discrepancies have led to allegations of deliberate tampering.
Shepard Ambellas, a prominent journalist, highlighted these anomalies on his social media, fueling further skepticism about the establishment’s integrity. The bleachers in the background have mysteriously vanished, and the sky is a shade of blue that wasn’t there, claims Ambellas. This all begs the question: What else are they hiding?
“The image of a bullet passing by @realDonaldTrump‘s head, taken by Pulitzer Prize-winning photographer Doug Mills, seems altered,” claims Ambellas in a Tweet. “Where are the bleachers in the background, and why is the sky bluer than it was that day? Compare for yourself. I call BS!”

Editor’s note: By the way, Shep’s post was immediately censored and not embeddable, and when X tried to access it, a message saying “not found” appeared. This shows how concerned the establishment is about this information getting out. Please share this, as we are in an information war. The above screenshot of the original X post shows the details.
Covering the controversy, CNN reiterated Mills’ esteemed reputation but failed to address the substantive claims regarding the photo’s authenticity. The news outlet’s reluctance to delve into these concerns only adds to the growing distrust among the public.
The implications of this alleged photo manipulation are profound, raising questions about the lengths to which powerful entities will go to shape public perception. As debates rage on, the truth behind this iconic image remains elusive, leaving citizens wary of the media’s role in presenting reality.
Astonishingly, Doug Mills happened to capture the iconic photo of George W. Bush inside the schoolhouse during the September 11, 2001 attacks. He’s being questioned about always being at the right place during significant world events.
“Doug Mills, a veteran photographer for the New York Times, took both of these photographs,” one X user wrote in a post. “How fortunate.”

Also, there is video evidence of Doug Mills being instructed to leave behind the stage and move to the front to take a picture or at least pretend to do so. It’s important to note that he wasn’t taking the ‘magic bullet’ picture at that moment; if he had been, the image would have shown a hazier sky.
Strange that secret service decided to move people from behind the stage right before the shooting. Here’s a different angle.

This incident underscores the necessity for vigilance and critical examination of the information disseminated by the establishment. In an era where truth is often a casualty, the public is responsible for questioning and demanding transparency from those who influence our perception of events.
The ‘magic bullet’ image shows a bluer sky, which could be the result of AI image enhancement software. However, it seems unlikely because the bleachers don’t appear in the photo behind the former POTUS. Just something to think about. I’ll leave you to ponder. Feel free to comment below.
