The Secret Service leader in charge of Presidential protective units, Michael Plati, announced his retirement yesterday.
Fox ^ | 9/11/24 | Jesse Watters

He'll leave the service with full benefits and honors, despite the fact that @realdonaldtrump was nearly killed under his watch. Top sources inside the @SecretService tell Fox that agency brass encouraged him to step aside. The agency should publicly fire Plati and walk him out the door in disgrace, but instead, they tried to bury the story on debate night and are practically throwing the guy a party on his way out.

The guy’s a failure. The FBI sets the whole hit up and this guy’s crew MISSED!

Get him out of here!

The SS obviously was trying to kill him one way or another.

This could be part of why the FBI is suddenly investigating Liberals.
95% chance he is a big Obama supporter.

They are likely to try again.

That’s probably why he got the golden parachute. The SS wants someone who will get the job done on the next hit attempt on DJT.

There is more to this story than one guy retiring.

The Secret Service Inspector General is investigating what happened that allowed Trump to almost be killed.

Once someone retires, they don’t have to comply with any inspector general requests, this guy will not be required to cooperate in the investigation of what happened, I think the Internal Investigation into the Trump assassination has been gutted by this guy retiring and we know the FBI and DOJ are not going to investigate anything involving Trump.

I think the Secret Service got this guy out of the way to coverup what this guy knows.

Did you see this?

“Today acting Secret Service Director to hold classified briefing on Trump assassination attempt”

WTH?!? Classified? Just say the investigation is complete and the results are sealed for 100 years. Isn’t that SOP on DC assassinations of sitting U.S. presidents?

Joe went first, Kimberly Cheatle, next, Michael Plati, next, and yes.....This was poorly executed wetwork. Someone will talk soon. The crime is being avoided by those responsible for investigating it. It's like they want to pretend it didn't happen.

This assassination attempt is what moved Kamala Harris into the Democrat nominee position. Joe failed (again) and had to pay the price.

"Get off my Whitehouse Lawn" moment for Joey.

Failed the original mission but got his parachute anyway. Typical government employee.

First sentence in the press release:

“Michael J. Plati is a member of the Senior Executive Service...”

All I need to know...

What could possibly be "classified" about a public event assassination attempt on a president, where the shooter is dead and burned into ashes?

OH wait.....never mind. I get it.

Failure in government pays better than success. Every time. Why that topic is never of interest to journalists escapes me.

Wasn’t it a cover up from day one?

This was my first thought.

“Get him out of here!”

That was their strategy. Get him out so he can’t be forced to testify.

I would say every sensitive government agency is always in CYA mode; they are doing so many illegal and unethical things they are always covering up something.

You don’t get to the top of a major government agency without carrying out the political will of the ruling elite, which is liberals both Republican and Democrat.

Was it a cover up from Day One, yes but it was a coverup from long before day one, it’s how they normally operate.
