Dan Bongino has been all over the Secret Service failure that resulted in the near-assassination of former President Trump. As a former Secret Service agent himself, Bongino has inside knowledge and sources that make him a great source of information you won't hear elsewhere. He's been there, so he knows how the Secret Service operates.
...
“comprehensive breakdown of the Secret Service failure in Butler County, Pennsylvania” and went over some recent developments in the story, such as the fact that law enforcement officers who were assigned to monitor the roof the shooter fire from did not do so because it was "too hot."
He also revealed a couple of things that he expects outlets to widely report next week, including why counter-snipers waited so long to shoot the would-be assassin.
“I've got from as close a source as you're gonna get to this, okay?" he said before going into detail about what he found out. "The reason they waited and hesitated was because they were unsure if that was in fact the locals who were supposed to have that post. Apparently, they waited for the muzzle flash, which is an unbelievable lapse in security, before they realized 'That's not us.'”
Not only did Trump nearly lose his life because of this, but Corey Comperatore is dead.
"How do you live with that?" he asked. "They waited for the muzzle flash because they were unsure if that was one of ours or a friendly, which could have been resolved by the Secret Service site advance agent if they just would have posted someone on the damn roof, instead of whining about the freaking heat.”
...
The video that we've seen of the Secret Service sniper taking out the would-be assassin is not the kill shot.

Well Dan, we are waiting.
He seems to have good inside info.
I listen to Dan since the beginning of this Assassination. And I’m think that he is leaning towards saying this attempted assassination of Donald Trump was an on purpose. by the Secret Service agency. They were complicit.
It takes time to organize information in an understandable manner.

They sure did, and that sure isn't a way to protect anyone.
why counter-snipers waited so long. Because the were told to wait until the real shooter took his shot and then take out the planted evidence
Getting popcorn ready! Come on Dan, time to drop the hammer.
He’s going in a direction that I did not expect.
He seems to be going in the direction of — “Incompetent people screwed up in their job of protecting Trump because they were stupid.”
I really see this as: “The government tried to take Trump out, but they missed.”
I suspect the bombshell will be this: On that day, the Secret Service was lazy, careless, and incompetent.
We already know all that. As do the Democrats (although they won’t admit it).
Now this would be a true bombshell: On that day, the Secret Service was DELIBERATELY lazy, careless, and incompetent - because the wanted Trump dead.
If that’s true, we’ll never be told it.
Somebody needs to be prosecuted on a charge somewhere in between involuntary manslaughter and negligent homocide.
Biden and Harris watched the whole mission from the situation room.
I am impatient. I don’t know how many bombshells I have waited for to just end up fizzles.
He’s sounding more and more like Chickenhawk Hannity every day.
So, I guess the counter snipers were not concerned there was an unknown man on a rooftop aiming a rifle at the leading candidate for president of the United States? They couldn’t tell if it was an assassin or a local LEO? They decided to wait and see what happens?
I have seen a report recently, that local police were expecting a meeting with Secret Service officials that never occured. I assume that during this meeting communications would be established and tested. This was not done. Apparently no SS official cared to communicate with Butler County PD or PA State Police, leading to a negligent lack of communications, and thus this situation. Seems like the SS dropped the ball with this one.
Good for Bongino!
The fine line between incompetence and malfeasance. Fedgov has plausible deniability. They’ll string a investigation into the Harris administration admit some unfortunate mistakes and it will disappear.
