8 Dem Congressmembers Pushed to Remove Trump’s Secret Service Protection
Front page mag ^ | July 14, 2024 | Daniel Greenfield

Posted on 07/14/2024 5:09:55 PM PDT by george76

House Democrat Homeland Security Committee site issued a press release touting the bill..

The Secret Service, headed by a Biden associate, failed to approve full protection for former President Trump before the assassination attempt.

And Democrats wanted to go even further.

Rep. Bennie G. Thompson (D-MS), Ranking Member of the Committee on Homeland Security, introduced the Denying Infinite Security and Government Resources Allocated toward Convicted and Extremely Dishonorable Former Protectees Act or the DISGRACED Former Protectees Act (H.R. 8081) which called for removing Trump’s secret service protection.

The proposed bill was co-sponsored by 7 other House Dems.

The House Democrat Homeland Security Committee site issued a press release touting the bill.

Now Rep. Thompson and co-sponsors like Rep. Barbara Lee and Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman have issued press releases condemning the assassination attempt. Some in the most perfunctory way possible.

“I’m praying for the victims of this heinous act of violence in Butler, PA today. I commend law enforcement for their swift and courageous actions,” Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman tweeted.

Meanwhile, Jacqueline Marsaw, a field director for U.S. Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Mississippi, allegedly tweeted, “I don’t condone violence but please get you some shooting lessons so you don’t miss next time ooops [sic] that wasn’t me talking.”

A disturbing number of Democrats in public office helped create a climate of hate and violence, and then also did what they could to encourage and escalate hostilities and to undermine the perception that President Trump would be protected from violence.

Yes indeed, plus Biden’s comment makes him culpable for attempted murder of Trump, I think.

“So, we’re done talking about the debate. It’s time to put Trump in the crosshairs.”

Any lawyers here?

Thompson said, "I was made aware of a post made by a staff member and she is no longer in my employment." I take that to mean he fired her.

The important point is that the rotten little witch got what she deserved.

ANY Dem congressperson up for re-election (especially THESE if they are) needs to be hit on this issue hard. Every hateful word they’ve uttered or written needs to be shoved in their face publicly.

Note the ethnicity of all but one of the Congressmen and women that advocated this. The one white is a POS from Memphis that has primarily a black constituency. Bennie Thompson is a greedy racist from a gerrymandered congressional district from Mississippi that was made to be black majority. One of his former staffers (as of this morning) lamented that the shooter missed Trump but she is a major player in the Mississippi NAACP. The NAACP in Mississippi was the recipient of millions of the ill gotten gains from the tobacco settlement orchestrated by the then AG Democrat Mike Moore. Evil is deep there.

Message: Subpoena these lawmakers. Taxpayers need to know who organized this heinous assault on democracy-----exposing candidates to harm and assassination----and the number of tax dollars and tax-subsidized aides and office supplies that were used in this atrocity.

Notice an overwhelming demographic involved.

Certainly a lack of diversity in that group. On twitter, many of that same group are lamenting that the assassin didn’t have better aim. Two of my ancestors fought for the North. At times like this….never mind

Don’t know what you read. This is what I read on X and on Daily mail.
Democratic congressman’s staffer is FIRED after saying she wishes shooter Thomas Crooks had ‘better aim’ in vile post after Trump’s near-assassination

“Marsaw has since been fired from her position. ‘I was made aware of a post made by a staff member and she is no longer in my employment,’ Thompson said.”

“In other words they used their official positions to assist an assassination attempt.”

aiding and abetting is a crime.

Yup.
Either they’ll double down, or they’ll backpedal faster than the Flash.
Which they do will be very telling.
