President Biden on Sunday announced an FBI investigation into the Secret Service’s astounding failure to protect Donald Trump at the rally in Butler, Pa., promising the probe would be “thorough and swift.”
But it’s folly to trust a federal law enforcement agency to obliterate interagency niceties by exposing all the foibles and flubs of fellow G-men.
Instead, we’ll likely see a vintage DC investigation along these lines: Please tell us if you screwed up. Also, is there someone else we can blame?
Congress is jumping on the Secret Service’s Butler debacle, asserting its own right to investigate the assassination bid.
House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer has directed Secret Service chief Kimberly Cheatle to “preserve all documents” tied to the Trump shooting, and Cheatle could take a high-profile hammering before Comer’s committee next week.
Meanwhile, Rep. Lance Gooden (R-Tex.), citing a lack of “faith in the current FBI leadership,” is calling for a select House committee to look into the Secret Service’s mess, joined by Rep. Jim Banks (R-In.), while Sens. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) and Gary Peters (D-Mich.) announced plans for a bipartisan Senate investigation.
Yet the White House is telling Americans to blindly trust an agency whose acronym is now widely presumed to stand for Following Biden’s Instructions.
This is the same FBI that kowtowed when Team Biden wanted parents who protested school closures and mask mandates at school board meetings to be categorized as terrorist threats.
An FBI analysis in 2023 recommended targeting conservative Catholics as potential violent extremists, citing nine “radical-traditionalist Catholic” organizations as “hate groups.” Twenty state attorneys general denounced the Bureau for effectively claiming that it could “distinguish the bad Catholics from the good ones” based on their “preference for ‘the Traditional Latin Mass and pre-Vatican teachings.’”

Can you trust an agency that browbeat Twitter and other social media companies to suppress The NY Post’s bombshell laptop revelations?
RHETORICAL QUESTIONS.
I so want to doubt anyone deliberately dropped his protection.
And then I hear they had word of the Iranian assassination plan two weeks ago!
How could they have refused pleas for more assets, and how could they have left a roof uncovered that was a known threat location?
I suspect they deliberately neglected to give him the best protection. After all, these scum were refusing any protection for RFK jr.
You can ask the FBI if it’s daytime and they’ll neither confirm nor deny it
And they spied on Trump
They planted evidence at Mar a Lago, they did a frame up job of him as a Russian spy, they wiretapped his HQ and campaign.
They arrested or disbarred all of his lawyers. The director sneaked into the meeting with ill intent to set him up. They charged him with numerous frame up crimes. They hid Hunter’s Biden bribery family laptop for the year before the election.
They are a filthy organization and nobody in DC can do this. It has to conducted by someone out in normal America who has zero connection to DC.
Yes we can trust them... We can trust that they’ll hide evidence and lie to protect the democrats. THAT WE KNOW!
Too busy investigating parents speaking at school board meetings.
In retrospect, the entrapment and lawfare job they did on General Flynn in 2017 seems so simple, so easy, and so phony given what we know today.
Its because most of America, and even Trump, trusted the FBI in January 2017
While the FBI still have power (for now), we can say that America’s eyes are now wide-open, and the FBI’s reputation and trust is destroyed - FOREVER.

Since Trump has a construction background, what is the teeniest possibility he has a favor to collect in that world, who just might go find who’s doing this. I’m sure that whoever is ahem found, will not see sunrise.
Good for the NY Post to put this into print.
They did such a great job with the Kennedy assassination...
Time to disband the FBI.
So, let's see: you were inclined to doubt that this government, under this administration, would act (if only through omission) to put Trump in jeopardy. But then you immediately embraced that absolute horsesh*t story about Iran?
The overrepresentation of credulous morons among self-identifying "conservatives" is why we can't have nice things.
Marsha Blackburn and others confront the Secret Service Director, Kim Cheatle at the #RNC https://hugh.cdn.rumble.cloud/video/s8/2/L/3/P/W/L3PWs.caa.mp4?b=1&u=ummtf
Long since time. Leave no stone on another.
Wow what a stupid arrogant pos you are.
We already know what the Warren - ooops - FBI Commission Report will say. It would be better if the Butler PA local police led the investigation rather than rat face - I love my jet - Wray.
I would recommend that the congressional republicans ask to set up special investigation group comprised of star law enforcement officers drawn from the state enforcement agencies.
