Even if electric, it's unlikely five combusted at once.

Looks like one car burst into flames and that fire then ignited the others. In looking at the pictures, the middle cars are burned evenly, while the outside cars are predominantly burned on the sides nearest to the middle cars.

I have heard that Vehicles the president travels in have great security features such as bulletproof glass and some other things we may not know about.

Are we saying that the Secret Service goes to Hertz Rent a Car to rent vehicles when a president visits a place? I thought I had heard the presidential limousines are airlifted to places the president visits , and that even when he goes overseas, he’s transported in his own vehicle which has been outfitted with security features.

Maybe this incident will be forgotten but this does seem very suspicious.

And it does seem odd to me that they send a secret service agent up to the rental car counter to rent a car for the president.

It’s very strange, as is the lack curiosity about it.

Even if electric, it's unlikely five combusted at once.

With all five cars parked side-by-side, I'm sure fire from the Expedition couldn't possibly have spread to the neighboring cars, right?

Here's a more mundane story than includes the facts that 1) the Secret Service rented many more than 5 vehicles for that trip, 2) the vehicles were all parked together in an overflow lot at the airport, and 3) the Secret Service had already returned the vehicles to Hertz the day before the fire.

Nantucket fire destroys multiple cars used by Secret Service for Biden visit

By Ross Cristantiello
November 29, 2022

Multiple vehicles that were rented by the Secret Service to use during President Joe Biden’s recent visit to Nantucket caught fire Monday.

The incident took place at Nantucket Airport. Just before 5:30 a.m. on Monday, staff noticed the fire consuming several vehicles in the airport’s rental car overflow area, Nantucket Airport said in a release. The airport was briefly closed, but first responders controlled the flames and it was soon reopened.

There were no injuries, The Nantucket Current reported, but the blaze destroyed five cars and came within 40 feet of tanks containing jet fuel.

The vehicles were just a few of the many rented by the Secret Service when Biden came to the island to celebrate Thanksgiving with his family, the Current reported. The cars are owned by Hertz and were returned to the company less than a day before the fire.

Nantucket Fire Chief Michael Cranson told the Current that, following an investigation, officials determined that the fire was not suspicious.

Security footage of the fire posted by the Current showed a significant amount of smoke and flames billowing through the predawn air. A Chevy Suburban, a Ford Explorer, an Infiniti QX80, a Ford Expedition, and a Jeep Gladiator were all badly damaged.

Neither Biden nor his family rode in the vehicles while they were on Nantucket, Secret Service spokesperson Anthony Guglielmi told NBC News. Secret Service agents used them to move around the island, and the vehicles did not show any concerning issues while the agents rode in them, he told the station.

Hertz is investigating the fire, Guglielmi told NBC, and a cause has not been identified. Officials are focusing their investigation on the Ford Expedition, the Current reported, which could have been where the fire started. The model was under a safety recall because of issues with its battery junction box.

This is what happens when an affirmative action VP attempts to assassinate her way to the job.

One of those vehicles (the dark colored one) was subject to recall for bad batteries - internal shorting danger. Which is why the SS isn’t investigating.

Isn’t it more likely that the cars rented were used by SS & other admin personnel? Ole Joe probably rode in The Beast or in another armored up vehicle(s).

Why did the cars catch fire? “The cause of the blaze remains under investigation,” says the Current...

It was staged in order to garner JoeBiden some kind of sympathy.

The fire started in one car and spread to the others.

They’re probably all unusable now, but one had more damage than the others.

If there’s an electrical socket anywhere in the vehicles, Joe probably stuck a fork or something in it.

Likely SS who didn’t want folks to be able to determine who went where.

The biden entourage unloaded a pile of sh!t into the cars because they are so full of it, and the sh1t spontaneously combusted.

More likely a coverup of something.

All on timers set by the SS and/or FBI to cover evidence of some kind.
