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.

The Trump campaign asked local officials a month and a half before the event if they could hold it at the airport. Something else was already scheduled, so the officials suggested the actual location. Can’t remember where I read this.
Lots of other video, but none of that.
Yes, the guy was on the roof. Yes, he had a rifle. But do we know he shot those rounds? Or was he more of a patsy?
Do the ballistics line up from his position on the roof? He swept the muzzle of the rifle at a police office peering onto the roof, just seconds before the first shots rang out. Was this enough time for someone like him to reposition in the other direction and shoot accurate shots on target?
Or...is there more to the story regarding the window of the two-story building right behind?
A professional sniper would almost always look to take the shots from inside a room.
Video of him in the act of shooting would put this discussion to rest.

Message: Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle must resign in the aftermath of the embarrassing spectacle of the S/S’s reaction to the assassination attempt on President Donald Trump at a Butler, Pa rally on a Saturday.
A presidential candidate was literally left on his own, with incompetent protection, abandoned to Cheatle’s loathsome doctrine of DEI.
Cheatle has been Biden’s nominee as the current director of the US Secret Service since Sept 2022, according to the agency’s website, and has worked for the S/S for 27 years.
Cheatle can never adequately explain why a roof top, with ladder, 150 yards from a shooting target, with an unfettered access to both the stage and the egress route to the target’s exit car, was left unguarded and uncovered.
The presence of three useless female agents expected to shield a 6’4” male from harm was unimagineable and embarrassing.
Cheatle must be relieved of her duties at once.
Possible remarks by “security agents.”
Say, that’s a nice AR-15 you have there. Look at that scope. I bet you can hit a target easy at 130 yards.
Need a hand with that ladder?
Well listen, I gotta go. It’s getting hot out here. I’m going inside.
How did they find out?
Where’s the drone?
Where’s the video of the flight?
Who did not see this drone and properly freak out?
I guess the SS let him have their drone.
They trained this guy. I am reflexively skeptical of conspiracy theories, but this is starting to stink.

The Blackrock connections are not coincidental.
Did the drone have banner attached wuth a target and Trump’s picture in it?
And the SS didn’t know about it? Now we find out half of Trump’s SS detail that day was Homeland Security not SS. ‘
How pathetic.
There are many reasons to choose an off-the-street 20 year old. “Dead men tell no tales.”
I am surprised I am not seeing more people talk about how RNC had Nessun Dorma after trump speech.
Maybe he just likes the song...or maybe he saw the movie Payback.

That was Hawley.
“One senator suggested today that Trump’s replacement SS agents weren’t actually SS agents”
Per Dan Bongino, there were 2 or 3 SS people. All others were “OTA”s - Other Treasury Agents - on loan. His regular, good, detail were sent to guard Jill Biden who also was in that area.
If Cheatle doesn’t keep her mouth shut she’s going to have a target on her too.
“Recall after 9/11 the government said these attacks would never happen again as they found a lack of communication between agencies was a large part of the problem.”
There are many similarities between this event and 911.
I have hinted at them in some of my posts—but folks here get a bit touchy on this topic.
Good post.
You are on the right track.
Is that the one with the Johnny Horton music?
If the Secret Service and/or other govt agencies were involved in planning an assassination, there need to be military trials and summary executions.
This is incredible, if true. We’re no better than Stalinist Russia at that point.
If Biden was involved, same thing.
Christie’s eyes says it all.
