Secret Service’s ‘Inexcusable’ J6
Failures Stem From Much Deeper Problems,
Former Agents Say

Original Article

Posted By: Imright, 8/18/2024 8:47:26 PM

Leadership that completely ignores field agent concerns, combined with inconsistent communication protocols and a lack of preparation, lead to outcomes like the Secret Service’s failures on Jan. 6, 2021, former agents told the Daily Caller. The Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) Office of the Inspector General (OIG) released a report July 31 detailing the agency’s performance on the day of the Capitol riot. A fundamental breakdown in inter-agency correspondence led to disparities in intelligence gathering and coordination between the agency and the United States Capitol Police (USCP), the former agents said.

The only Capitol riot I recall was when they tried to burn down the St. John's Episcopal Church in 2020.

The Capitol Police receive a report of an "explosive device" - how did someone know that's what it was? Did the planter call it in? And then they don't call for an EOD team because the DoD needs 72 hours notice to respond to any such request? Did ANY law enforcement agency do ANYthing right that day?

Our politicians have turned agency leadership positions into prizes for winning a campaign. Want to reward someone who helped you get elected? Appoint them to head up an agency, regardless of their experience. Nothing destroys morale faster than an incompetent leader.

The 'Rats had plenty of time to plan how to infiltrate the Trump rally with violent ANTIFA thugs. and Pelosi's (the Speaker of the House is THE person responsible for Capitol security) deliberate refusal of requests from various law enforcement officers to approve adequate security forces to deal with the violent Leftist infiltrators, show coordination of efforts to manufacture the so-called 'insurrection'. The so-called 'Pipe Bombs' were fakes that looked like cheap TV show props. Nice shiny new galvanized pipe and great big white "1 hour" kitchen timer dials. What Bee Ess! The cops KNEW they were fakes, as shown by their actions later that day, casually sauntering over to take photos, etc. REAL bombs would have been disguised as bags of trash, and would have been set off by using cheap cell 'phones, as the thugs in the middle east have been doing for many years. The whole thing was a set-up so as to be able to accuse Trump of "INSURRECTION!!!" and abuse the Constitution so as to deny him the ability to regain the Presidency even if he won election again. Pelosi, Schumer, 'Bug-eyes' Schiff and the 'Rats are truly FILTH!

Given that January 6th was a planned event by the FBI, Capitol Police, DC Police and Pelosi's House, Secret Service interference would have messed everything up for them and exposed the scam, unless they were brought in on the plot as well. A million people participated in the protest against a stolen election and didn't kill one person, the Capitol Police did. DEI Lieutenant Michael Leroy Byrd of the Capitol Police panicked and fired the only fatal shot. I can't wait until the DNC convention begins to see how much violence will be tolerated from the fake palestinian rioters. My guess is "all of it."

The Jan. 6th affair wasn't the result of secret service failures, it was caused by massive fraud perpetrated by the democrap party and the inside the beltway cabal. There wouldn't have been any riot if the parties responsible for keeping elections safe, and on the up and up hadn't conspired to confirm the results even though hours after the voting locations were closed, reports of massive fraud were being reported with eyewitness and video to prove it.

The Harris-Walz campaign beggars the meaning of irony. In an effort to look and sound competent, Harris unveiled her diabolically crafted economic plan on Friday. Purportedly, she intends to solve the problems that she and the decrepit sock-puppet Joe Biden created. In typical liberal fashion, the mainstream media complex is pretending Kamala never existed before her Democrat party coronation. Once an absolute pariah, spitting disjointed hooks like a cybernetic impression of a rap artist, Kamala is now a heroine. We’re witnessing the enthronement of a court jester.

The DNC kicks off in Chicago on Monday to formally nominate Vice President Kamala Harris later this week, despite her never receiving one vote in the primaries. In a move that's in no way surprising given how obsessed Democrats are with race, the DNC is segregating their caucuses.Multiple posts shared to X show official DNC signs directing delegates to attend certain caucuses by race and at one time. On Sunday, the eve of such a kickoff, the Breaking 911 account shared a list of several caucuses segregated by race and other criteria, including a vague "Ethnic Council Meeting."

The Democratic National Convention kicked off Monday in Chicago, with Vice President Kamala Harris taking the stage in a surprise appearance. Before President Biden took the stage, his daughter Ashley and wife Jill talked to the convention crowd. Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez also spoke during the event’s opening day. The Democratic nominating event for the presidency and vice presidency at the United Center will host other powerful party leaders as featured speakers — including Biden whose decision to step down paved the way for Harris’ elevation to the top of the 2024 ticket.

Then, on Monday at the DNC, they introduced Walz at one of the events as "Command Sergeant Major" — misrepresenting the rank that he retired at, a rank he never earned. But they really doubled down on the staging of events with what they did in Pittsburgh at the famous Primanti Brothers restaurant on Sunday, according to Fox News.

The 2024 Democratic Party Platform is here. Predictably, Democrats are laser-focused on moving ahead to repeal any kind of protections for unborn life, including forcing taxpayers to fund abortions. In the Democrats’ platform, it explicitly states, “We will repeal the Hyde Amendment” in the upcoming presidential term (via Democrats.org): President Biden, Vice President Harris, and Democrats are committed to restoring the reproductive rights Trump ripped away. With a Democratic Congress, we will pass national legislation to make Roe the law of the land again. We will strengthen access to contraception so every woman who needs it is able to get and afford it.

Walz told students that, under communism, “everyone shares” and gets free food and housing from the government, according to the resurfaced newspaper piece first reported by the Washington Free Beacon. Just two years before the article was published, China’s communist government massacred pro-democracy student protesters in Tiananmen Square, with death counts ranging from several hundred to thousands, according to the BBC.

My flak jacket is on as I write this since I am sure to offend or p*** off some friends, family, and colleagues who are ostensibly Republicans or conservatives but have a visceral aversion to Donald Trump. Some tell me they are Republican and miss Ronald Reagan but also admit they “couldn’t” vote for Donald Trump in either 2016 or 2020. Nothing says one is Republican like voting for a liberal Democrat. This is the NeverTrump wing of the Republican Party, emerging shortly after Trump secured the GOP nomination in 2016. Reasons for NeverTrump-ism are myriad. Some were offended by his mean tweets, name-calling, and brash Queens personality.

Sunday was a banner day for the Harris campaign. After weeks of carefully curated events, the vice president turned presidential nominee went off-script multiple times, reminding Americans why they once ranked her the most unpopular major politician in the country. After delivering a word salad on the "duality of democracy," a line she's used many times before, she then explained to a high school football team that they can be "undefeated" even if they don't win a game. It was vintage Kamala Harris, punctuated by a visit to a gas station that left people wincing. I don't know about you, but I was going to vote for no price controls,

President Joe Biden laid out the end-of-week goal on Saturday, and Blinken claimed that it was the “last opportunity” for an agreement — though it was not clear why, other than the political goal of reaching a deal during the convention. Israeli President Isaac Herzog met with Blinken, and told the media afterwards that Hamas, not Israel, was blocking a hostage deal: We are surrounded by terror

Before the clinic even arrived, they announced that all of the appointments had been filled and that they would follow up if they had cancelations but the move sparked an avalanche of criticism online.
