Report: Secret Service Reportedly Ignored Warning About Man With Rifle on Roof
PJ Media ^ | 07/13/2024 | Matt Margolis

Posted on 07/13/2024 7:33:28 PM PDT by SeekAndFind

An eyewitness at the Trump rally in Pennsylvania claims he saw a man with a rifle on a rooftop. He said he warned authorities but was ignored.

"We couldn't see [Trump], but we could hear him. So we walked up probably five to seven minutes from Trump speaking—I'm estimating here, I've no idea. But we noticed the guy crawling, bear-crawling up the roof of the building beside us, fifty feet away from us. So we're standing there, you know, we're pointing, we're pointing at that guy crawling up the roof."

"He had a gun, right?" a BBC reporter asked him.

"He had a rifle," the witness confirmed. "We could see him clearly with a rifle. Absolutely. We're pointing at him. The police are down there running around on the ground. We're like, 'Hey, man, this guy on the roof with a rifle.' And the police were like, 'Huh?" you know, like, like, they didn't know what was going on. You know, we're like, 'Hey, right here on the roof! We can see from right here. We see him! He's crawling.'"

He continued, "And next thing you know, I'm like, I'm thinking myself, I'm like, 'Why is Trump still speaking? Why have they not pulled him off the stage?' I'm standing there, pointing at him for... you know... two or three minutes. Secret Service is looking at us from the top of the barn. I'm pointing at that roof. Just standing there like this [gestures]. And next thing you know, five shots rang out."

"And you're certain the shots came from that guy on the roof?" the reporter asked.

"A hundred percent. Hundred percent."

"And he was up there for a couple of minutes?"

"Absolutely. At least three or four minutes."

"And you were telling police and the Secret Service?"

"We were telling the police; we were pointing at him for the Secret Service, who were looking at us from the top of the barn. They were looking at us the whole time where we were standing by that tree [with] binoculars. "

Knowing this is not comforting.

Orders from on high.

Let Trump be killed.

Then kill the perp to shut up the patsy.

But the loser missed and the SS took him out thinking the job was done.

Trump clearly needs his own team to provide his protection.

Secret Service is clearly compromised and allowing the attempted murder to take place.

We were inches from losing our candidate tonight.

I’ve been watching and live reporting CBS News coverage all night.

Not only has BBC found an eyewitness who tried and tried to get Secret Service attention, but CBS also found and interviewed another eyewitness who corroborated the same facts.

No telling how many eyewitnesses also saw what authorities didn’t see.

And if the SS didn’t see the shooter in advance, then how was it they immediately took him down after the shooting???

Video above proved SS watched the shooter fire before taking him down on purpose.

Who gave those orders??

I just posted this on another thread...

Everyone on the detail knows at that point because the witness pointed him out, or at least he tried to.

Did you see the pole shed? Its “flat topped”. The witness says the sniper was bear crawling up to the other end. A “flat topped” pole barn generally isnt flat, its sloped to one side with no middle peak. If the sniper is crawling up then he is crawling to the high side (toward Trump).

The SS may full well know that he is there but they cant see him because he is using the front of the building like a merlon.

The SS cant just start hosing down a building randomly because someone says there is someone else on the roof. They have to see him to aim which they cant do until he pops up.

Some will point out that a pole barn like that is effectively only concealment, not cover. True, that still doesnt mean that SS can chew the whole top front of the building off with gun fire.

Actually, only 1/2 inch to 1 inch from losing him.

That’s an important question to have answered.

Sounds like they waited until he took his shots before firing back.

And is it true that a woman is in charge of his SS detail?????? And that she was in security at PEPSICO?????? And that there are females on his immediate detail??????

WHEN Trump gets in, he needs to CLEAN HOUSE.

Maybe. Maybe not. But it does sort of have an all-in-one Dealey Plaza + Dallas police station basement combo feel to it, doesn't it?

Let's just say it isn't "morning again in America." It's late. Very, very late.

Just wait till cell phone videos start popping up showing the shooter on the roof...

Eyewitnesses seeing said shooter...

Eyewitnesses trying in vain to get agents to pay attention......

Secret Service standing around picking their noses.

Shooter firing shots...

Then showing SS agents taking action and taking out said shooter immediately.

God help us all if this stuff shows up.

No. She is in charge of the Secret Service.
