Rooftop where gunman shot at Trump was identified as a security vulnerability before rally: sources
Nbc ^

The rooftop where a gunman shot at former President Donald Trump during a campaign rally was identified by the U.S. Secret Service as a potential vulnerability in the days before the event, two sources familiar with the agency’s operations told NBC News.

The building, owned by a glass research company, stands adjacent to the Butler Farm Show, an outdoor venue in Butler, Pennsylvania. The Secret Service was aware of the risks associated with it, the sources said.

What’s the point of identifying security vulnerabilities, if you ignore them?

Understanding how the gunman got onto the roof — despite those concerns — is now a central question for investigators scrutinizing how a lone attacker managed to shoot at Trump during Saturday’s campaign event.

The article sort of implies it was mis communication or something Between the police and SS as to who had that covered

He climbed up the ladder.

Q: Who put the ladder there?

Q2: Why didn’t SS see it, and, remove it? And, investigate where it might be taking someone to?

🙃

President Trump should hire the Rooftop Koreans as adjunct security for his campaign.

“mis communication or something Between the police and SS as to who had that covered”

That will be the official cover story...

and it will be a lie.

If the Secret Service did not have the manpower to secure that roof, it would have been very simple to ask local law enforcement to provide additional manpower to secure those buildings. At the very least the Agent in Charge must be held accountable. It will be interesting if he is called before Congress and is questioned under oath.

.
Headed for an Investigation where no one believes the conclusion.

These “Investigations” work for the DC Swamp, and no one else.

It is looking more and more like a deep state assassination attempt.

Too many coincidences and violations of protocol, ignored warnings.

Biden sitting in church at Mass while Trump is being executed., Very Godfather. He looked surprised that Trump survived when FJB got on the TV last night.

Elon, you can put me in the deliberate column.

So it’s pretty much confirmed that the lapse was on purpose.

There’s the SS and 40 different LE entities at the convention. I hope they communicate well.
