This Is Why We Drill:  Embarrassing Secret Service Response to Attempted Trump Assassination

 

I spent a couple of years in my career with Broaddus Defense, a private company that helps clients prevent and prepare to respond to violent attacks.  The Secret Service fumbled the response to the attempted assassination of President Trump yesterday, and every member of the assigned team and their superiors should be taken in front of a Senate committee and grilled during a session that is carried live by every single media platform.  This event and the Secret Service's response is why we drill.

 

First, [...]

Very interesting.  Unfortunately, it also sounds like a very basic failure by the USSS.

Retired Army General: 'Somebody Failed to Appreciate the Militarily Significant Aspects of Terrain'

 

[...] The general said that the Army has a process for making threat assessments that would have produced for the Secret Service personnel a limited set of locations where a hostile actor could attack the president.

 

He said the Army calls the battlespace analysis process OAKOC for obstacles, avenues of approach, key terrain, observation and fields of fire, and cover and concealment.

 

"Without any other information right now, my guess is there were likely failures during the planning and reconnaissance phase," said the former director of nuclear support for the Defense Threat Reduction Agency.

 

"When they received the mission, they should have [...]

He was 20 years old, registered as Republican aged 18, so the timing still fits. Plus, Pennsylvania was one state where the DNC pulled out the stops to make sure Dr.Oz ended up as the GOP senatorial candidate and give Fetterman the best chance of winning.

This is exactly the same thing I was thinking when discussing everything with my friend.  PA requires one to be registered to a Party to vote in a primary and the 2022 PA Republican Senate primary was one of the most hotly contested races in the nation.

Radicalized Lone wolf

Who turned the vile hate speech he constantly heard from the leftist media and dem politicians into evil action.  "Hitler" "Existential threat to democracy" "Dictator" "The end to our way of life".   This is not harmless rhetoric.

According to the leftist/Democrats who spew it, it is fine.  Wasn’t it the leader of the Dems in the Senate that was calling for his supporters to make some Supreme Court Justices pay for not agreeing with the Democrat position?

Seems his one time $15 donation was two weeks post Jan 6 , the progressive group he donated to, apparently vocal critics of trump’s failed coup. 

 

Radicalized Lone wolf incel , most likely, like the young man who set himself on fire 🔥 at trumps New York trial.

Maybe he was a follower of those idiots from the Lincoln Project?  The interesting thing is it is the Democrat extremists that seem to be the most dangerous out there.

The Democrats are way worse than anything Sarah Palin ever did, and they have supporters that will act on it.

The crux of the dem message from the start has been that "Trump must be stopped."  "If Trump gets back in the White House, the country will go away".  I have heard this over and over and over and over again.  Is it really that surprising that someone, who might be a bit imbalanced, believed that nonsense? 

 

It will be interesting to see if The View, MSNBC, and CNN alter their rhetoric.  Personally, I don't think they will...or can.  Some of them are very sick mentally, imo.

I have not finished watching this but I have to agree with Candace.  Hard to believe that this is just USSS incompetence.  Also hard to believe that if there is a bigger plan that it could be so sloppy.

Now the Dems/Left/MSM types are trying the "both sides" gambit.  Megyn Kelly lets them have it.

Hmm, so the Morning Joe show is really just a Democrat mouthpiece, and cannot be trusted to actually report or relay news facts.  I think that is well known among many people.  Btw, what is Old Corrupt Joe going to watch this morning?

 

As a side note, could have put this in the journalism thread, but seemed more relevant to this thread.

Another petulant Democrat pushing the staged narrative.  I must say, Democrats are really showing their true colors with respect to being “for the people”, when they claim an event like this where one person was killed, and at least two others were severely injured was staged.  This is why I cannot support any Democrat today, they are a way more threat to Democracy than anything Trump can muster.
