Late Breaking News!

My concerns exactly. What if these jumpers are just to map SS response, to a single point, all resources deployed.
Hope to hell SS is on top of this. And what kind of security does he have at Mara Lago?
I don’t like the money Trump is spending every weekend to go to Mar-a-lago. Bad optics.
HOWEVER, maybe he should make that his WH for the time being. It seems he is safer there than the WH.
Good. I don’t give a #### as long as he’s safe.
In fact I’d be glad.
Let’s not pretend this is the ‘50s.
I coordinated attack isn’t an impossibility and we know how well protected our institutions are from 9/11.
I’m really concerned SS couldn’t withstand 12 man Muslim or CIA assault team armed with RPGs. Are they really ready?
From observation, the uniformed security seems more like an affirmative action jobs project than a protective force.
Shoot the next one dead and it will stop.
Until these frequent ‘fence jumpings’ began, back in the Obama Administration, I would have presumed the Secret Service were ready for most any scenario. I no longer feel that way. They have probably never considered, strategized or let alone real-time rehearsed what to do in the case of multiple jumpers. Why not?
It’s surprising how inept they have been made to look. Don’t forget, that first guy is said to have freely wandered inside the White House grounds unsupervised for at least 17 minutes.
I really hope Trump fires a few of these incompetent people, or at least reassign them to less crucial positions.
Give them the famous command from”Stand By Me”:= and this fence-jumping will come to a quick end:
“Chopper! Balls!”
The list needs to include juicy raw steaks.
Electric Fence..problem solved
The organized Left is not afraid.
Direct action is needed, and soon, or they are going to get Trump.
Agreed....
I don’t remember these incidents when 0 was in the WH. Just proves the point that liberals are deranged and dangerous.
I thought I heard the other day that the D Trump ‘fan’ that made it on the grounds to the South Entrance is out on bond.
If I heard correctly, it is definitely the wrong message to send.
Should leave present fence as is, have a bumper zone then an electrified fence and maybe moat or some booby traps.
It does appear that if 3 or 4 attempted at the same time - I am talking the muzzy ‘suicide bombers’, there doesn’t appear to be much to deter them once over the fence.
That guy roaming the grounds for 15 minutes or so is totally unacceptable.
If the guards are ineffective, put the money elsewhere.
One would imagine that ANYONE that is assigned to ‘watch’ POTUS etal would really be on their toes lest they be accused of being ‘BO’ holdovers/operatives....
And any indication they are, should be immediate dismissal - at least from that detail....send them all to watch the North & South Pole and Gitmo....
[whats going to happen when 5 jump in coordination?]
That’s what automatic weapons are for.
“Shoot the next one dead and it will stop”
+1
True. A couple weeks ago a long-time FReeper went down Memory Lane and gave the rundown on what happened — when Lucianne left FR and started her own thing.
The looks like a pretty good improvement, but still looks possibly climbable.
However, the current fence is wholly inadequate. It’s tiny.
