[Master Thread] Attempted Trump Assassination (Including attempt on Sept 15, 2024)

[Dashinka 24,479]

It is interesting, there are some that completely trust the federal bureaucracy regardless of their actions.  I do wonder how they square a performance like this.  Why is there no accountability in DC anymore?  Why hasn't this DEI hire by Joe and the fake Dr. Jill submitted her resignation?  Democrats always tout how enlightened they are, apparently that does not include self respect, and self accountability. 

 

House committee skewers Secret Service director for not answering major questions on Trump assassination attempt

 

Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle was skewered by a visibly frustrated House Oversight Committee on Monday after she said she took responsibility for security failures that led to the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump but sidestepped several major questions.

Cheatle, who was subpoenaed to testify, did not provide clear answers when committee members asked about whether the Secret Service had secured the building the gunman fired from and how he gained access to the roof.

“I’m not going to get into specifics of the day,” she said, citing an ongoing investigation. “There was a plan in place to provide overwatch, and we are still looking into responsibilities.”

It prompted committee members from both parties to tell her to resign over her “incompetence,” her “lame excuses” and her lack of answers to what they called basic questions.

Incompetence, you say?  Hmmm 🤔

 

Maybe, just not, in this instance, in the manner that you imply.

SCOOP:  The REAL Reason Trump's Assassin was not Eliminated on the Rooftop before Firing on Trump

 

This Information comes from a first-hand source of highest credentials.

 

The attached video is a view from the second story window of the AGR building in Butler, Pennsylvania.  The rooftop it overlooks is where Crooks fired on Trump.  This room was the overwatch view where a Butler County SWAT sniper team was stationed at the direction of the Secret Service for the Trump rally.

 

The Secret Service is responsible for stationing all protective teams for the President.  Local and State law enforcement officers go where they're told.

 

The snipers in this location should have *easily* been able to engage Crooks before he ever came close to scope site of Trump.   Yet, Crooks was able to fire that day without anyone engaging from this position.  Why?

 

The answer is [...]
