U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas is facing serious questions from members of Congress over the failed assassination attempt on Donald Trump on July 13.
And while he has yet to answer questions about how an identified threat was allowed to scout out the venue via a drone, climb onto a rooftop just 150 yards away from a presidential candidate and actually fire shots at Trump before being stopped, Mayorkas has boldly weighed in by issuing a statement regarding women in law enforcement.
Instead of addressing the growing cascade of failures that nearly allowed the assassination of a former president and current candidate, Mayorkas released an impassioned statement denouncing public statements that questioned whether the Secret Service was more concerned about diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) or actual protection.
Mayorkas called accusations that the Secret Service was cutting corners on its protective detail for Trump “baseless and insulting” and attempted to recast the concerns over astonishing official incompetence as an attack against women “serving in federal, state, local, tribal, territorial, and campus law enforcement.”
Senator Josh Hawley (R-MO) says he has spoken with whistleblowers who said that the DHS dispatched officers who were unfamiliar with security protocols and treated the Butler, Pennsylvania rally as a “loose security event.”
Mayorkas had previously responded to claims by Rep. Mike Waltz (R-FL) that Trump’s Secret Service was denied requests for increased resources by saying that Waltz’s statement was “an irresponsible statement that is unequivocally false.” A follow up story in the Washington Post showed that Mayorkas’ claim was not true.
Earlier today, Mayorkas announced the appointment of an “independent review panel” which will conduct a 45 day investigation into the attempt on former president Trump’s life. Among the four panelists named is former DHS Secretary Janet Napolitano who has been a highly outspoken critic of Trump.
Whether those panelist will get to the truth of what happened in Butler, PA remains to be seen, but it seems a safe bet that the right DEI boxes will have all been checked .
I am sure the “independent review panel” will get to the bottom of what looks like a plot. /s
Mayorkas is a traitor.
Fidel Castro could not have planned a better destruction of the USA! With Cuban born Mayorkas overseeing the millions of illegals flooding the border and now the attempted assassination of President Trump he is at the head of the snake. He is plotting every day for the further destruction of our Republic. Members of Congress should have returned him to Cuba. Gitmo, Cuba! Let him serve our country from his homeland.
BTTT
Should have impeached him long before now.
Rep Eli Crane videos made in Butler PA are on his Twitter X feed here.
From the window, and from on the roof.
Just wait 'til The Warren Commission gets ahold of this.
Quoting Mayorkas on the Trump shooting: “We in the US Dept of Homeland Security — the largest law enforcement organization in the federal government — will, with great pride, focus, and devotion to mission, continue to recruit, retain, and elevate women in our law enforcement ranks. Our Department will be the better for it, and our country more secure.”
Yeah, sure .....dont make me laugh.
That’s why Trump was “more secure” on the day he was shot.
Reference:
<><>Mayorkas heads The Dept of Homeland Security which has more than 260,000 employees in jobs that range from aviation and border security to emergency response, from cybersecurity analyst to chemical facility inspector on the govt payroll as of Jun 11, 2024.
<><>Mayorkas’ Homeland Security Investigations division apparently lent employees to the S/S has over 9,800 Special Agents and tactical officers on the tax-paid govt payroll. Complete With perks privileges bonuses and pensions.
Yet, Mayorkas denied Trump’s request for increased security.
Call Congress to express your outrage.
Biden sent $200,000,000,000 to protect Ukraine
but left a US presidential candidate unprotected.

It’s very close, the windows would align closely with any shots taken by Crooks, both in trajectory and acoustic signature.
Thanks. The people on the 2nd floor in the building behind Crooks should be polygraphed.
It's gonna be interesting to see how the pieces of this all fit together... anything the legacy media says is a lie though and obviously DHS is run by professional liars.
Kudos to Rep. Crane and also there's an Army guy in the house who would know about this kinda stuff... his first name is Corey.
How about a nice trip to the waterboard?
How many of us believe that the only reason SS ended up fatally shooting the Crooks is so that he couldn’t be questioned.
The rally audience was the target to spread fear to rally going.That is why they picked a terrible shooter. The audience was the target. Democrats hate the deplorables most of all.that was murder all the way around.
Water boarded. Starting with Cheatle and working down.
“Will no one rid us of this turbulent Cuban?”
Yes, divine providence.
And a clear signal to those who can see.
The counter signal would have been Trump’s head exploding in high-res slow-mo.
God had another plan.
Of course he would defend DEI. Without it he wouldn’t have a high paid Government job.
