A gunman who tried to kill Donald Trump was able to fly a drone and get aerial footage of the western Pennsylvania fairgrounds shortly before the former president was set to speak there, law-enforcement officials briefed on the matter said, further underscoring the stunning security lapses ahead of Trump’s near assassination.

She got that “standing on the gallows” look going.
Does that mean no push granny and her wheelchair off the cliff ads by Democrats this time around.
This is a must watch for those who haven't seen it.
I saw it! Those senators were awesome. Bet they couldn’t believe Cheeto would actually show up there in the RNC den.
“ One senator suggested today that Trump’s replacement SS agents weren’t actually SS agents but loaners from some other agency”
I read that a few days ago. There is a possibility that they were from PA and not accustomed to protecting high valued persons.
I’ve heard this as well. That Trump’s SS team was pulled and sent to Pittsburgh to cover Jill and Trump was given “temps”.
I have to again point out that yesterday I linked the idea of the Oxford school shooter in Michigan to this type of nerdy loser Crooks. Said his parents might be in legal hot water if they knew he was unbalanced and heading out to the rally with a rifle and explosives.
Today they actually said the FBI found searches by Crooks of the Michigan shooter’s sick exploits. Out of all the possibilities.
Hope I’m not psychic.
So the shooter did more work scoping the site than the SS ever did.
I want to know and can anyone find out the info..I know that Harris, Jill Biden and Trump were all having events in PA that day..who scheduled theirs first..is there a way to find out who announced their event first
If some 20 year old loner kid could almost cause a tragedy what about all the illegal aliens that have crossed our border?
You can’t make this up. They stripped his security down to nothing and stood aside.
What else makes any sense?
I’m supposed to believe this was massive incompetence?
I wouldn’t be surprised if he hired a surveyor
The Butler Area Boy Scouts could have provided better security. Of course if you knew the Butler Area Boy Scouts were providing security, and there were assets who were being groomed to shoot Trump, then it would make sense to bet there would be a problem with Trump’s business.
Nothing the feds are saying makes any sense......until you accept they might be lying. Once you flip this switch, things around you become very clear.
If I have a cheap Chicom drone (like the ones the Ukes destroy tanks with) and I rig an explosive to it, why couldn’t I easily kill Biden or Trump at a rally or while they’re driving to a rally?
Excellent question. Trump rallies are never scheduled at least not announced very far in advance
Kids got a drone but the Secret Service doesn’t.
Many new “laws” taking individual rights away to ensure a threat was seen in advance.
Well, guess what? It was incompetence, stupid!! And still is.
So expect more “laws” putting the hammer down on us so these sort of attacks don't happen again.
Until next time, that is.
Loaners from DHS — Mayorkas, again.
