Homeland Security Chairman Sen. Rand Paul releases Final report on Trump assassination attempt

U.S. Senate ^ | July 13 | Sen. Rand Paul

Today, U.S. Senator Rand Paul, Chairman of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee (HSGAC) released the Committee’s final report regarding what can only be described as stunning failures by the United States Secret Service (USSS) that allowed then-former President Donald J. Trump to be shot on July 13, 2024, in an attempted assassination in Butler, Pennsylvania.

One year later, the facts remain as chilling as ever: a former President of the United States and major party candidate was shot in the head at a publicrally by an individual who was reported as suspicious and carrying a rangefinder to the Secret Service at least 25 minutes prior. It is a miracle that President Trump survived.

This attempt on the life of President Trump cost one innocent life and could have resulted in far more bloodshed. The truth is, President Trump, and the nation, was fortunate. The once-again President survived despite being shot in the head. Since that day, there has been another attempt on his life and further threats to do him harm, including most recently a renewed threat from Iran.

This report reveals a disturbing pattern of communication failures and negligence that culminated in a preventable tragedy. What happened was inexcusable and the consequences imposed for the failures so far do not reflect the severity of the situation.

“Murder charges are against individuals, so which SS agent(s) do you think could be convicted of murder?”

The individuals who lied, the ones making the decisions to ignore the alarms, etc. All that many people making so many mistakes all at the same time was done to dilute culpability. But there had to be a puppet master behind the curtain.

I believe it was originally outsourced to the Pinkertons, after Lincoln.

That is a whole lot of indictments ....

Failures...or refusals? My money’s on the latter. This was Biden’s SS, and well after all the law fare failed; so what’s a democrat to do when that happens?

rand paul only released what his puppet masters have told him to.

No one being referred for prosecution and no mass firings of management means the antiTrump deep swamp is covering up the assassination plot
