"Whistleblowers claim Trump's security detail was mostly ‘unfamiliar’ DHS agents, not Secret Service, Sen. Hawley reveals.""

Nope, that doesn't work. There were LOTS of folks there that were "unfamiliar" with security and they easily spotted the perp on the roof with a gun.

That's just more meaningless chaff to pile on the cover-up.

Was there ever such a thing as a “temp” security guard brought in from some other police field?

To me, that's the #1 unanswered question.  Forget all the chat about roof slope, ladders, drones, etc.

The authorities knew for close to a half hour - if not longer - that there was a suspicious character on site.  How and why was President Trump allowed to walk on that stage with the information that was already known?

At the very least, heads need to roll over this communication failure.  At its worst, some necks need to suffer from rope burns.

SS is a department under the umbrella of Homeland Security. He meant that some of Trump’s detail were from another department under Homeland Security and were not actually Secret Service.

The Bushies started Homeland Security and now we can see that it wasn’t a very good idea.

"let’s not forget he had 3 foreign bank accounts..seriously, a 20 yr old with THREE foreign bank accounts."

Well, maybe he was thinking of running for congress...

“some of Trump’s detail were from another department under Homeland Security”

Yes. HSI. None are trained in protecting. They’re investigators.

Yes that’s my understanding also.

I misunderstood the context of “other” DHS .

I didn’t hear him say it so I was unclear. Thanks for clarifying.

If this is true and the convention SS detail tall, stout men makes this more probable than most people realize. Trump has kicked the democrats provide SS to the curb.

There is going to be more curb kicking once he is elected. These vile people tried to kill him and his demeanor has changed. President Trump is pissed. Really pissed.

I agree, and that makes it even dangerous for DJT,...they will try again. As chine joe said to Trump on the phone call "why did you move your head?"

I hate being fair to these people, but Cheatle needed to be at the convention to observe her SS team in action, show that she was in command, and make darned sure SS agents weren’t in the cloak room with hookers and “DEI Digest” or otherwise failing. Plus, Mayorkas probably ordered her to show the flag to forestall the inevitable criticism if she didn’t.

Cheatle literally running away from questions might not have been the image he hoped for...

"Has anyone seen the video with the guy on the top of the water tower?"

I saw some fuzzy videos and likewise stills... It could have been anything from Bigfoot, a moose or a covey of martians..

Some years earlier Crooks was in a Blackrocks TV commercial. And it is rumored that the building he shot from is owned by a company funded by Blackrock.

I have a theory (don’t we all): That is that the agents, Deep State, whomever, allowed the kid to do all the set up, investigation, buying supplies, etc. The kid thought he was certainly going to carry out the hit. They (alphabets) knew everything about him and expected him to go there, set him up in fact, BUT they put someone in the building to take the actual shot as insurance.

Americans desperately need these theories; if we learn that our agencies are staffed with bumbling mediocrities, we'll start thinking that maybe we're just as mediocre as anyone else, and that we suffer the effects of original sin just like everyone else in the world does.

(And if we're in the "greatest country in the world", then we certainly can't have that.)

Oh sweetie, you actually believe the attempted assassination was the work of just a 20 year old?

Of course not; such a thing could never happen in the "greatest country in the world".

It could only be a conspiracy, and a massive one.
