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.
“They told us they had no communication with the Secret Service until after the gunfire started. This SWAT team saw the shooter. They recognized him as suspicious, even took pictures of him,” Katersky reported.
“None of the concerns, though, had a chance of reaching decision-makers before Trump took the stage because of what these men and women described as failures of planning and communication,” he added.
Jason Woods, the lead sharpshooter of the SWAT team in Beaver County, expressed his frustration.
“We were supposed to get a face-to-face briefing with the Secret Service snipers whenever they arrived, and that never happened,” Woods said.
“So I think that that was probably a pivotal point where I started thinking things were wrong because that never happened and we had no communication with the Secret Service,” he added.
Aaron Katersky: You had no communication with the Secret Service at all on that Saturday?
Jason Woods: Not until after the shooting.

Absolutely!
It was just a piece of glass from a teleprompter that wasnt broke. Just barely grazed his ear! Yeah, Thats the ticket.
Isn’t it amazing that all of these lone wolf attacks happen at the same time as catastrophic failures by the authorities?
(This SWAT team saw the shooter. They recognized him as suspicious, even took pictures of him,” Katersky reported.)
“even took pictures of him”
A guy in civilian clothing
with a scoped rifle
pointed at the President Donald Trump
Shoot first
Take pictures of the body later
Guess this is the “secret” part.
Cheatle needs to be put under arrest for murder. Congress needs to call in every single person involved.
That’s pretty much the only logical conclusion anyone could come to right now
One of them said his rules of engagement was to not be the first shot.
The world ain’t what it seems, is it gunny?
You keep that in mind
The moment you think you got it figured.
.
You’re wrong!
Well that worked out great
Again Secret Service fails miserably

GP is misleading. They DID meet on July 8th., but there was a scheduled briefing for 9:00 on July 13, and the SS was a no-show. See p. #6 of my Senator Johnson’s preliminary report.

I have been screaming that. She must be tried for treason along with several others. Attempted overthrow of the government. Watching her testifying before Congress, she had a muderous look in her eye. Either try the people for treason, or we count this as the beginning of our civil war #2.
Including the top republican politicians who were on on this? Don’t dare lie and say no one wearing an R didn’t know.
You have to wonder what a freedom of information request of all electronic (email, text, voice, etc) for information between the Butler local police and the Secret Service and Homeland Security would look like for the two weeks leading up to and the one week immediately after the assassination attempt.

Tom Fitton from Judicial Watch is going to be on it.
“Unbelievable!”
Actually it is not unbelievable. With this corrupt DOJ, corrupt FBI and now corrupt Secret Service leadership, it is exactly what we can believe. And, as always, organizations and governments rot from the head.
The Secret Service did its job by getting out of the way. The FBI did its job by finding a patsy.
