The Secret Service is facing mounting pressure to explain how a 20-year-old would-be assassin climbed on top of a roof and fired shots at former President Donald Trump without authorities noticing.
Former Secret Service agent Dan Bongino is demanding answers from the agency, revealing troubling details about the breach of security that left Trump injured.
Bongino, who spent 12 years working in the Secret Service under President George W. Bush and President Obama, pointed out obvious mistakes that could have changed the trajectory of the country forever.
He pointed to three issues plaguing the Secret Service that resulted in a would-be assassination of one of the most high-profile public figures in the country.
One, Bongino wrote in an op-ed, is the lack of manpower and security equipment.

What bothered me is not just their body language and attitudes, bouncing around, ponytail whipping from side to side, looking completely panicked. That is bad enough due to the contagion of fear and panic it can induce in those around you, not just the civilians, but your own team.
And it wasn't completely the focus on getting the sunglasses on, and one even adjusted her clothing, pulling her jacket down to straighten it out. All that indicates people who, in an emergency, don't know what to do, so they do something, be it holstering their firearm, putting on their sunglasses, or straightening rumpled clothing.
What really bothers me is that their training should have trained all of that out of them. And that means the training is either being compromised in the minimum requirements to include people who shouldn't be included in that job, or their core training is being compromised to include things like gender sensitivity, etc.
In all of this, contrast those three females with the large bald, sunglassed guy to the left of the screen. Ask yourself how his actions and demeanor contrast to those three females. Do they look like they are in control, or does he?
Who do you want piloting your jetliner when an engine is lost? Who do you want to share your foxhole with when a communist Chinese soldier jumps in at 3 AM to stick you with a bayonet, or...who do you want managing your detail when the President is shot?
The guy washing off the roof had no trouble up there either.
All of this is true...but imho the communications was compromised/sabotaged.
That is the Rosetta stone of what happened that day.
> It takes arduous training over a period of time to train to deny your basic and natural instincts to go to ‘duck and cover’ for self-preservation,
versus the trained need to cover and protect the asset.<
They are trained to “make yourself big”. It was obvious in the footage that there were two trained SS agents who made themselves big, and the rest ducked down in fear.
Just like the Vegas shooter, this will all get buried in a useless internal investigation and then memory- holed.
My wish is to live long enough to learn the true stories of Obama, the 2020 steal, and the assassination attempt. Heck. I almost lived long enough to learn the true grassy knoll story.
EC
You are 100% exactly right.
Plus the three women were just simply too short to cover the President’s upper body.
I am not against women SS agents , but they need to be 6 feet tall at a minimum, weigh about 180 pounds and be in combat ready physical condition.
These short pony tail women were obviously untrained.Cheatle needs to resign along with her entire management team. Never again should the SS be politicized. WHere elese has the 1st SHady, JillBiden,worked he magic in our government. Jill needs to be put in a box and shipped to Alaska for an exoended 6 month vacation. Jill is a walking shitebox of incompetence, she made the Cheatle hire for all the wrong reasons.Cheatle is nothing but a political sock puppet.
Third string SS forced on the Trump Campaign
A couple days ago someone posted a screen shot from James O’Keefe saying that SS whistleblowers are contacting him. We think it’s interesting and awful now. Wait until OMG infiltrates the organization.
BTTT
Thanks for the tip—O’ Keefe has the stones to break this case wide open...
but we need to get off the same talking points and start focusing on communication, communication, communication....in the moments leading up to the assassination attempt.
There is a reason President Trump was left on that stage with a known threat in plain sight to local, state police and the Secret Service..
That was not due to incompetence. That was due to communications sabotage.
The Butler rally got the third string security detail
While Jill went to some casino to address the "Italian Sons and Daughters" dinner.
The inner security was made up from Secret Service detail was made up from Secret Service with DHS agents (DEA).
Outer ring and perimeter security was provided by Butler Pa. local police officers, who were already short staffed.
One thing we get from this is insight into a characteristic that helped her career advancement.
When faced with a situation, people tend to instinctively do what has always worked successfully for them in the past.
In this case, she lied.
This was not her first lie.
Her career advancement was built on a mountain of lies.
They did know. The crowd pointed him out. Several times.
Just sent your post to my brother, they look like a cross between the keystone cops and the three stooges.
“I heard some jackass here on FR call Bongino a liar and a clown earlier this week.”
There’s definitely at least one Bongino hater here. I posted a few pieces of info that DB had received from his pals still in SS. I got replies that Dan is a this, a that, a something else — all of it very derogatory.
As if this poster is more in the know than Dan. Really...
I said it once and I will say it again. Put Dan Bongino in charge of reforming the Secret Service, with power to fire and reassign.
Please have a thorough look at this:
Asssitant dorector of the FBI was sitting right behind PDJT when the shots were fired, She filmed the whole thing.
...”here’s Janeen Diguiseppi, assistant director to the FBI, sitting directly behind behind Trump at the Butler “

It is simply unacceptable that we have no transparency from government agencies like the SS. I’d fire them so fast their heads would spin.
Nixon’s plumbers were more competent.
WAY MORE TO IT!!!
