House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer announced that his panel will open an investigation into the shooting against former President Donald Trump.

Comer (R-KY) revealed that he has already contacted the Secret Service and requested its director appear for a hearing on what authorities are investigating as an assassination attempt against the former president.

“I have already contacted the Secret Service for a briefing and am also calling on Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle to appear for a hearing. The Oversight Committee will send a formal invitation soon,” Comer said in a statement.

Trump, 78, was delivering a speech at a rally in Butler, Pa. when multiple shots were fired just after 6 pm ET. The former president, who was seen with blood gushing from his right ear claimed afterward that he “felt the bullet ripping through my skin” and that he “was shot with a bullet.”

The suspected shooter, who has not yet been identified, was “neutralized by Secret Service, according to the agency. At least one rally-goer is dead and two other spectators were badly injured, per the Secret Service.

“My prayers are with President Trump and the victims of the assassination attempt at today’s rally in Pennsylvania. I thank the brave Secret Service members who put their lives at risk to protect President Trump and for the American patriots in the audience who helped others who were hurt,” Comer went on.

Have a hearing and do what? She will not know a thing. What are they going to do? Have the DOJ investigate?

[bantam]

Republitard big talk! Nothing ever happens!
Maybe some gets a strongly worded letter?

THIS TIME HEADS BETTER ROLL!
SS allowed this f tard to take a crack at a former President, and most likely the NEXT President of the United States!!!
This STINKS bad!

“WE handed him to you on a silver platter.
And you MISSED!”

“NOBODY will believe it was an accident, leaving that building unguarded, blowing off people who said there was a gut with a rifle climbing the building...letting him get off the first several shots and apparently hitting Trump, before you killed the guy!”

“What are we going to do now?”

...waiting for the first “Hitler meltdown” video about the guy missing.

[Zack Attack]

Yes, no agents on the building 130 yard away with a clean shot? Heads must roll. Trump was set up.

[griffin]

Well now....THIS will get to the bottom of things!!!

Whew! I was worried for a second.

Democrat Bennie Thompson introduced the absurdly named "Denying Infinite Security and Government Resources Allocated toward Convicted and Extremely Dishonorable (DISGRACED) Former Protectees Act (HR 8081)" on April 19, 2024.

Question: who put these Democraps up to facilitating a Trump assassination?

[Tucker39]

I’m confident Comer will look very sternly at Cheatle, et al, before he makes a somewhat disapproving statement re the USSS’ giving the assassin first dibs on Pres. Trump before finally firing at the shooter./MegaSarc!

[Pollard]

hearings, investigations, probes, sternly worded letters and foxnews soundbites

VS

bullets

[cgbg]

Exactly—the SS lady is just a useful idiot front for the people who really run the Deep State.

Her job was just to make the SS as incompetent and stupid as possible with DEI hires.

It is also my view that Biden (and anybody else with SS protection) is in grave danger because of gross SS incompetence.

They all “work” for Obama..who is the CCP “governor” of the USA

[MayflowerMadam]

Oh good. Another useless hearing. Theater.

[MayflowerMadam]

I wonder if the local Sheriff in Butler County has any kind of authority to do investigations, make arrests, etc., since this happened in his jurisdiction.

Of course, it could be that it was his people who ignored attendees pointing out the shooter. In which case, nothing will be investigated.

[MayflowerMadam]

” this is merely a coincidence?”

I’ve posted before that “they have to kill him”.

Their lawfare was strong, but seems to have fizzled.
The debate was a big success for Trump; Biden looked awful.
Trump’s polling gets better every day.
RNC Convention starts today.

Everything is against them. The only thing they have is cheating, and there’s almost too much awareness for that to succeed again (although it can).

Murder is the only thing.

[MayflowerMadam]

“waiting for the first ‘Hitler meltdown’ video about the guy missing.”

LOL! Sounds like you’ve got a good start already. There’s a template; you should make one.

[Skooz]

yep

[MayflowerMadam]

Of course that was the goal. Shock and awe for everyone to see in real time. That’s the reason for terrorism; they’re terrorists.

[ridesthemiles]

SOON??? HOW ABOUT MONDAY AT 9 AM?????

[Georgia Girl 2]

The first two people to be questioned should be the two SS snipers as to why they didn’t kak this guy on sight and who was talking in their ear bud at that moment. That’s all I want to know.
