Was it all plausible deniability?

[Bayard]

If only they’d done their jobs.

Basically the US Secret Service has chosen the Sargent Shultz’s defense.

[Gaffer]

Sorry, I just do not believe this at all. Crooks had been under FBI knowledge at points prior to the attempt. USSS is saying now that the FBI and USSS don’t/can’t talk to each other?

I think they’re all a bunch of colluding liars.

"As part of its ongoing investigation, the panel interviewed 23 state and local law enforcement witnesses, received a series of Secret Service briefings, and obtained thousands of pages of documentation in response to federal, state, and local agencies."

But no interviews/briefings with bystanders who were pointing out the guy on the roof?
I'm getting that "mistakes were made" feeling....

“Report: Secret Service Didn’t Know Crooks Was Armed Before He Opened Fire”

I don’t believe one word of that

BTTT

Well everyone at the rally knew.

So carrying a gun around a secure area is....

[BitWielder1]

I thought snipers are supposed to have really good eyesight.

[Mr. K]

He was just sitting on a roof...

Hey, give them a break. When they became reborn as a DEI organization it’s the best they can do.

[chopperk]

That long black thing he was lugging around could have been a crutch.

[hflynn]

The fabulous Secret Service not only didn’t know Crooks had arms but apparently they didn’t know Crooks had legs because they seemed to still be totally baffled by his movements at the rally.

[1Old Pro]

Rowe should update his resume, he’s fired.

[libertylover]

But a section on “fragmented lines of communication and unclear lines of communication and chains of command”

That used to be just called a Cluster F***.

WE can find other Galaxies LIGHT YEARS FROM EARTH & we cannot see a gun just yards away???
