Exclusive on Trump Assassination: “I’ve Been to Every Trump Rally, They Left a Clear Line-of-Sight to Kill Trump” (VIDEO INTERVIEW)
Gateway Pundit ^ | Jul. 16, 2024 | Benjamin Wetmore

Posted on 07/16/2024 7:19:31 AM PDT by george76

In the aftermath of Saturday’s attempted assassination of President Trump, details are continuing to emerge about the security decisions that made the shooting possible.

Lori Levi has attended every Trump rally selling merchandise except for 10, and noticed major security lapses in the set up and layout of the Trump rally by event organizers.

“I had a terrible feeling. I knew something was wrong. I kept waiting for them to fix the basic security problems, since there was a direct ‘line-of-sight’ to President Trump.”

The FBI and federal authorities have assumed total control over local law enforcement to respond to media inquiries. In an email, the City of Butler police told the Gateway Pundit, “The FBI has assumed the role of the lead federal law enforcement agency in the investigation. The FBI is now issuing all press related material.”

The corrupt FBI has been caught fabricating evidence used against Trump in the Russian collusion hoax case. The FBI was caught by Congress lying to hurt Trump. The FBI has been busy persecuting the January 6th protesters with imaginary criminal offenses. The corrupt FBI has worked to take out Trump by any means necessary.

...

Even the High School Crooks graduated from is now directing people to the FBI instead of making any additional comments.

Levi, a long-time rally attendee who attends every Trump rally as a vendor selling Trump-related merchandise, tells the Gateway Pundit: “I knew something was wrong the day before when I came to set up in Butler, Pennsylvania.

They weren’t blocking the line of sight like they have in every other location. Typically they would put cranes, or heavy machinery, in the way to block a clear line-of-sight to Trump as a security protocol. I kept thinking that his security detail was going to bring it in later, but they never did.”

“When we came in on Friday, after attending hundreds of Trump rallies, we noticed the situation did not look right. They can’t protect him from here. I just had this terrible feeling. I knew something was off.”

Levi makes clear that at every other Trump rally, the Secret Service made sure that there was no easy long-distance ‘line of sight’ to the President.

Levi says that the security protocol is to create a “layered” barrier to create a ‘line of sight’ protection for President Trump from sniper and would-be assassins.

This protocol was not in place at the Trump rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, says Levi.

“I assumed they would bring in dump trucks, semi trucks, cranes, to block the line of sight, but they didn’t.”

“I do not believe that some 20 year old kid could have pulled this off,” said Levi. “The Secret Service does not make these kind of mistakes. I don’t believe this story. I think they let him get the shot off first.”

Levi also notes that the security perimeter to protect the typical Donald Trump rally is usually much farther out than it was in Butler, Pennsylvania at the Butler Farm Show Airport.

Other attendees tell the Gateway Pundit that the security problems extend not just to letting a Presidential assassin climb the most obvious building with a direct line-of-sight to the President, but they include a wide variety of other security failures that have as yet gone unreported by the mainstream media.

There were multiple security failures in Butler, Pennsylvania by the President’s official security detail.

Eyewitnesses also relate that the FBI has been vacuuming up photos and video from the event from attendees, and if past procedure is any indication, they will classify and seal all such material as the product of an ‘ongoing law enforcement investigation’ indefinitely.

The evidence and proof of the Trump assassination attempt is being buried right now. Federal law enforcement is starting to blame local law enforcement for the failure, claiming that they were in charge of providing security on the outer perimeter of the rally.

A source close with law enforcement in the area told the Gateway Pundit today that local Sheriff Michael Slupe was instructed to ‘stand down’ and not send extra manpower and SWAT teams to the rally site in advance of the President’s appearance in Butler, a small town of 13,000 in Pennsylvania about 30 miles northeast of Pittsburgh. This was allegedly done over the objections of Sheriff Slupe.

USSS Director just stated that the reason nobody was posted on the building was due to "the sloped roof" being too dangerous?!?!?!

Nevermind that it was almost no slope and much flatter than the roof the USSS snipers were posted on.

Just imagine for a moment if Trump had been killed

The timing and circumstances would have been perfect for game-set-match to the deep-state.

Trump was the total focus of conservatives, no other candidate would or could motivate them. No VP was even chosen yet. RINOs would be back in control.

Biden could then have easily been dumped by the DNC

It would have been Kamala Harris, another cut-out and puppet, vs. Nikki Haley - who is the same. It would have been a controlled result in a low-energy, low-turnout election. Media would have been turned up to “11” to tell us - Democracy in action!

I pray that the local cops speak out about what happened even with the FBI trying to shut them up.

Secret service can’t moan and b!tch about not having enough personnel after they told local law enforcement to not send help.

Just like Nancy Pelosi can’t moan and b!tch about J6 after she refused Trump’s offer of 10,000 National Guardsmen.

BOTH cases were inside jobs where innocent Trump supporters were killed.

There are quite a few bits of new information in that article.

* Lori Levi’s observations are especially interesting about the SS bringing in cranes and heavy equipment to block the line of sight to POTUS but not at this location.
* The FBI and federal authorities have assumed total control over local law enforcement to respond to media inquiries. — no surprise there
* The FBI was “vacuuming up” video and still photographs from attendees.
* Local Sheriff Michael Slupe was instructed to ‘stand down’ and not send extra manpower and SWAT teams to the rally site...done over the objections of Sheriff Slupe.

At the least, the Feds were accessories after the fact in Dallas; and at worst, probably facilitated the JFK assassination by others.

Even if you believed these obvious lies the question remains: Why - when they knew 25 minutes ahead of time that there was a guy with a depth finder and rifle on the roof of the building with direct line of sight/fire to the podium - die they AT THE VERY LEAST stop Trump from being at the podium? They knew exactly where this guy was and what he was up to for 25 minutes and let the show go on without any warning to Trump.

The more excuses they make, the more obvious it is that this was an inside job - because any 12-year-old could see that you don’t leave the rooftops unguarded.

And if they kept the local cops from sending in additional help, it was because they were afraid they might be like the Benghazi heroes: ignore the BS instructions from the assassination plotters in the federal govt and fight like heck to just do their stinking jobs. Oh no, we can’t have people there who would see the blatant set-up and be in a position to actually do the job the Secret Service was only PRETENDING to do.

An observation. One word, Trust. Our current society has been groomed for distrust. This administration has been continuously putting out to not trust citizens, J6ers bad, Trumpers bad, Republicans bad, Christians bad, etc….

Many parts of society have been groomed to not trust law enforcement and our Justice system. As society continues to break down, the issue of mutual Trust must be restored….or the mayhem will continue…..

Excellent link—the Deep State coverup is in full swing.

Republicans in Congress and “respectable” conservative journals like National Review will help make it work by focusing on “mistakes” instead of the actual conspiracy.

The Deep State will also create some kooky conspiracy theories to muddy the waters and protect the guilty.

We have seen it many times before....

In the old days when several of us here were investigating the obvious murder of Vince Foster the best way to dig out the facts was to visit the watering holes of local LEO during happy hour.

After a couple of drinks they openly admitted that the Feds threatened and terrorized them into silence.

Trust for anything in our government can only return when the crimes of the Deep State are actually dealt with.

I believe military tribunals are the only way America makes it out of the mess we’re in.

What’s happening now is just like every other attack the left has done on this country using their power to corrupt everything. We have blatant in-your-face evidence of an inside job to assassinate Trump and the media and the politicians all want us to “tone down the rhetoric” while the FBI does what they always do: snap up the evidence and bury it so they can tell us lie after lie after lie, all to suit their political agenda.

It’s like Pearl Harbor just happened and we’re being told the real problem is heated rhetoric and trust the Japanese to tell us whether they meant to hit our base.
