Members of the local SWAT team assigned to protect former President Donald Trump at his rally on July 13 have revealed that they had no contact with the Secret Service prior to an assassination attempt on the former president. The shooting occurred on July 13 when a would-be assassin opened fire at Trump while he was addressing supporters. During an exclusive interview with ABC News’ senior investigative correspondent Aaron Katersky, the officers detailed how a lack of communication and planning failures led to a critical delay in identifying and neutralizing the threat.

The USSS is a real clusterf##k. Who was the USSS Agent in charge at Butler PA? He/She should be royally identified and fired. The Greek should also be fired. They work for him. He endorsed their behavior.

What the wimpy congressional Republicans should do is call for all the Secret Service Supervisory Special Agents that were in the Secret Service unit at the rally before and during the assassination try against Trump to be interviewed and to testify before Congress. Those Supervisory Special Agents should be questioned to determine what the actual rules of engagement from the politicized bureaucrats at the top of the Secret Service and the Department of Homeland Security were for that rally and previous Trump events, were the Secret Service snipers under orders not to fire on suspected assassins until after the assassin(s) made the first move, like taking a shot at Trump? You have to wonder, as it appears that the Biden crew through Mayorkas before the assassination attempt on Trump failed, were actually assigning Trump the minimum Secret Service protection that they could get away with.

It looks like more and more like the higher ups in the Secret Service and Homeland Security(Mayrokas) orchestrated the attempted assassination by removing all security, even though they knew there was a shooter loose that day. It looks willful due to Trump derangement/hatred and determination to stop Trump at all costs.

Sounds to me like the USSS had been cutting corners, either by incompetence or design for awhile. Most days, nothing happens. But like the Irish Republican Army told the British government when their attempt to kill Lady Thatcher, You have to be lucky everyday. We only need to be lucky once.

Kennedy's shooter took three shots. Reagon's shooter, six shots. Crooks got off eight rounds. The USSS is getting sloppy and Wray testifies that maybe it was glass that hit Trump. They want us to believe that eight bullets and a piece of glass didn't kill Trump so we're all good. Well I'm not good. Many people have to be fired.

My how things have changed. I used to think the ultimate lawmen were the FBI, and that the Secret Service was the best of the best. Now if I was involved with a kidnapping event, I would trust my local sheriff more than the FBI. If I were Trump, I would trust the local lawmen in a Republican county more than the SS.

You know this was an inside job because of the lack of evidence where are the bullet casings. do they all match the casing from the bullet that hit PRESIDENT Trump? why did the FBI hose down the roof after Crooks was killed. (I believe he was the decoy and was killed so he would not talk) No communication, as planned. Look at the J6 debacle. Ashley Babbit shot, her body cremated before being returned to her family. Why. the cop that shot her is hidden for six months at Andrews AFB. why?

secret Service had to provide FOUR TIMES as many agents for First WItch's 300 person indoor blather fest, than they were permitted to use for Trump's 15,000 to 20,000 outdoors rally. And even if there were zero DEI-induced competence issues (which I doubt) when you have 1/4 the number of people in your security team that you REQUIRE......inevitably things will NOT get done that MUST get done to provide proper security. This was intended to be a short handed security team by the evil people in charge, like Mayorkas. NOT errors, not entirely incompetence, not miscues......INTENTIONAL shortage of adequate numbers of security people.....PLANNED by the Dems. They WANTED Trump to be at risk. Things ran as intended by Mayorkas.

The establishment media are suggesting that President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is deporting more illegal aliens than former President Donald Trump did, even as Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) data shows otherwise. Politico, for example, seemingly credits Biden for Title 42 — the public health order that Trump first used as a border control during the Chinese coronavirus pandemic. Biden, in May 2023, ended Title 42.Though Politico notes that Title 42 expulsions at the United States-Mexico border are different from deportations of illegal aliens from the U.S. interior, the report later conflates the two to claim that Biden and Harris have

Democrats just revealed their true, sick political nature with their cynical push to remake the Supreme Court. Indeed, they showed just how far they’re willing to go to take down Donald Trump and win an election. And that they are the real threat to democracy and America’s political system. The plan, rolled out by President Biden and Veep Kamala Harris, would impose 18-year term limits on justices, essentially, a plan to pack the court with liberals. They’d subject justices to a code of conduct you can bet will be used similarly against justices they dislike. Plus, they want more limits on presidential immunity after the Supreme Court reminded them that, under the Constitution,

The group shamelessly made their presence known from the stands by chanting hateful rhetoric and booing the Israeli team as they stood for their national anthem at the Parc des Princes on Saturday night. Swarms of protesters were seen waving Palestinian flags — with some even performing the Nazi salute during their heinous display of hatred.

Shocking new footage from the assassination attempt on Donald Trump shows local cops with guns drawn surrounding the building where Thomas Crooks opened fire — fully two minutes and 10 seconds before the shooting. The video later shows a barrage of gunfire, and then the crowd’s reaction to Crooks being shot and killed by the Secret Service, with one witness commenting that it must have been a headshot because of the “big poof of hair.” As the video unfolds, Trump can be heard in the background speaking to the crowd at his rally in Butler, Pennsylvania on July 13 — but no attempt was made to get him off the stage.

Twenty-six years ago, a young man named Matthew Shepard was beaten and strung up on a Wyoming barbed wire fence to die. The beating and murder were because Shepard was gay. The perps were quickly found, tried for murder, convicted, and sentenced to prison. They’re still there. It was a good news story about bad news and was widely reported. But it wasn’t true. It has since been shown that Shepard and one of the perps were in the drug business together. Shepard was due to receive a $10,000 shipment of meth. The perp himself was gay and had been in a gay relationship with Shepard.

Opposition leader Maria Corina Machado said the margin of González’s victory was “overwhelming” based on voting tallies it had received from campaign representatives from about 40% of ballot boxes nationwide. The National Electoral Council, which is controlled by Maduro loyalists, earlier said Maduro had secured 51% of the vote to 44% for González. But it didn’t release the tallies from each of the 30,000 polling booths nationwide,
