Report:  Secret Service Didn't Know Crooks Was Armed Before He Opened Fire

The report, released early Monday, also asserts that [...]

They Tried to Kill Him

 

[...] There are three possible explanations for a near-miss assassination attempt:  first, a fluke of bad luck; second, culpable negligence, where authorities starve a target of protection in the hope, conscious or unconscious, that a lone nut will take advantage of the opportunities thus left open; third, deliberate conspiracy to commit murder.  If the attempts on Trump's life were anything but the first option, then there quite simply are no other issues in this election.  The party willing to use murder as a political tool must be defeated.  The fact that options two and three are live possibilities months later is itself alarming.  [...]

Secret Service Brass Interfered in IG Assassination Probe

 

Secret Service leaders meddled in an independent government investigation of the July 13 assassination attempt against former President Donald Trump and are still not following many basic agency security protocols for presidential candidates, presidents, and vice presidents in the final days before the election, according to emails reviewed by RealClearPolitics and several sources in the Secret Service community.  [...]

Oh, God, this is stupid.  He'll be a sitting duck, and this is their last chance!  Maybe there'll be a snowstorm that cancels it.

President-Elect Trump To Hold Huge DC Rally Before Inauguration:  Let's Hope Security Is Dialed in

 

President-elect Donald Trump sure does seem to love his huge, trademark rallies.  They were one of the key events in his presidential campaigns - all three of them - and he still seems to enjoy them, so much so that he's holding a victory rally in Washington, DC just prior to his inauguration.

The Associated Press places the rally on January 19th:  [...]

Just days before hundreds of thousands of spectators are set to gather for the swearing-in of President-elect Donald Trump on the steps of the Capitol, Secret Service and other law enforcement officials are expressing confidence that they are fully prepared to protect the peaceful transfer of power even as they acknowledge an elevated threat level from President Joe Biden's inauguration four years ago.

Behind the scenes, however, deep concerns remain that the Secret Service is still facing some of the same institutional problems exposed last summer and fall in the wake of two assassination attempts on Trump's life.  New threats and fears also have emerged since a pair of New Year's Day attacks on ordinary Americans [...]

I think that he should show up at the White House gate with a judge who can swear him in in front of the gate guards.  Then he should go directly to the Oval Office and start working.

Trump May Not Be Safe at His Inauguration

 

We're all excited about Trump's coming inauguration, but in light of the recent attempts on his life, it's a fair question to ask if all the necessary safety precautions are being taken to ensure his safety.

Former Secret Service agent Dan Bongino isn't sure.

"I've been getting a ton of questions, 'Dan, how do you feel about this inauguration?'  'You think it's going to be safe?'  And the answer is complicated.  That's not an easy yes or no question."

In response to the recent Secret Service and FBI briefing, Bongino stated bluntly, "The inauguration is probably not safe."  [...]
