I just got off a briefing with the Secret Service and FBI. I am appalled to learn that the Secret Service knew about a threat prior to President Trump walking on stage.

I have no confidence in the leadership of Director Cheatle and believe it is in the best interest of our nation if she steps down from her position.

No, he is just recalling what good research here used to be like, back when FR was much bigger and better at analyzing the news than today, where it is now more of an ankle biting site full of unchallenged gossip and innuendo rather that of facts. People here used to source just about everything that they asserted, and would be called to do so whenever they just started embellishing heavily due to bias.

...a few days after 9/11 when I was working in NYC, the police evacuated the train terminal, Penn Station. I heard a police officer on the news ratio station, 1010 WINS, saying “well, we usually get like 100 calls a day from people saying they’re gonna blow up Penn Station. And it never happens. But now after 9/11, out of an abundance of caution we are evacuating.”

Evacuating Penn Station, versus removing one man from a podium, I don't see the equivalence.

Yes….but presumably they knew it was a fake because a fed agency planted it

I think so, with Jill’s event announced just three days in advance.

Guilty as charged. I know I get too enthused at times. But you are right.

Planned. Intentional. Blown. Cover-up proceeding. The management of the SS should all be waterboarded to get the truth.

Well, now Congress and the Senate will get ZERO answers, because Mayorkas has the Inspector General auditing/investigating the Secret Service in regard to the Assassination attempt. Now all you will hear is “Can’t comment on an ongoing investigation”

I’d very much like to reply to your post but your post references an ongoing investigation and I can’t speak about that.

FWIW:

“The IGs serve under the general supervision of the agency head. Yet, by statute, IGs have a dual and independent reporting relationship to the agency head and to the Congress.”

2 Thessalonians 2:7 For the secret power of lawlessness is already at work; but the one who now holds it back will continue to do so till he is taken out of the way.

The SS has ONE job to do and they knew about a threat and failed to act - thus they failed. Period.

Isn’t the mission of the Secret Service to protect our currency?

“Just announced Biden has COVID and has to cancel his appearances for now.”

That is the best thing that has happened for Biden in months. All of his appearances have been disasters and he is ready to stay in the basement until he drops out.

The ex-sniper I was listening to yesterday was ABSOLUTELY APPALLED that the sniper team did not take that potential assassin out before he shot at Trump. He vehemently disagreed that the Rules of Engagement prohibit taking preventative actions to neutralize the obviously imminent threat.

From https://www.houseofnames.com/biden-family-crest

The Anglo-Saxon name Biden comes from when its first bearer worked as a maker of buttons. The surname Biden is a metonymic name derived from the Old French word boton, which means button.

Yeah, that's right Senator...

Director Cheatle probably is a perp here.

She got her job because of DEI. No way she is aware of that or any conspiracy. She just gets in her government limo in the morning 'runs' the SS from her desk.

"the Secret Service knew about a threat prior to President Trump walking on stage."

If they knew of a possible threat then, at a minimum, they should have beefed up security precautions.
