“So little accountability”

**************

If you want accountability start cutting agency budgets. Otherwise they have no incentives or reasons to be accountable.

“Senators Blackburn, Cruz, and Lee, among others, were left in the queue and not allowed to ask questions of the agency they fund and oversee.”

***********

They keep funding them regardless. Oversight is a joke.

> This is not the America we knew.

We didn’t know what was going on behind the scene.

100%...I’m pretty convinced we’re being publicly lied to by these people.

Hard to believe 5 days later Biden’s government is stonewalling everyone.

I doubt that they knew he was scouting the area before the event actually happened. I’m assuming that they are guessing this from cell-tower positioning information that they are looking at. They can, in hindsight, say where he was prior to the event.

“And Ms. Cheatle, Director of the Secret Service, refused to step down/resign...

What a colossal disgrace.”

************

Not to them. They see it as a victory and an assertion of their power.

I don’t care how the see any of this. The entire event reeks like a 4 day old homicide scene.

“Smells really bad. Like they’re hiding something.”

*************

At the very least it strongly suggests that they dislike Trump so much they didn’t care if they did their jobs to prevent harm to him.

So do I. It’s just the way it tends to get written up in criminal filings because it sounds more scary than, “a common digital communication application”

I totally disagree with you regarding your statement that “there is No way that a 20 yr old does not have....” I have a 25 year old grandson who spends the majority of his time with computer items and has NO social media presence. He has only recently gotten a cell phone—for emergency use and that’s it. He has no desire at all to interact with anything like most of the world does.

I’m just saying that what we see as disgraceful the Swamp see’s as defiance and an assertion of their power. Being called disgraceful and other epithets doesn’t phase them. Their goal is power, not popularity.

Btw, I personally think they’re sweating bullets...People were killed, maimed and or seriously injured. A former president nearly had his brains blow out in front of thousands of cameras that were trained on him.

I honestly believe behind the scenes they’re scrambling to save or cover their own asses.

I read that he was on Discord, too-I’ve also read that there have been others who were on Discord who ended up abducting, stalking and trying to murder other people, etc and talking about it there...

If it was a defective rules of engagement policy that caused this assassination attempt they seem to be doubling down that they did nothing wrong and don't need to change a thing.

Evil, obtuse, gross malfeasance.

Definite appearance of something even more nefarious and sinister going on within.

Zero confidence in these losers.

They had one job.

They are clearly refusing to cooperate and be transparent, which absolutely begs the question “Why?”. Incompetence clearly doesn’t bother them so what else are they hiding?

One shooter a while back was on a Discord talking to “people”.
