Had that information been shared, federal and local law enforcement in Butler, Pa., could have provided heightened security for the president..
A new report on the Butler, Pa., assassination attempt on President Trump reveals that the Secret Service received classified intelligence regarding a threat to Trump's life 10 days before the rally, but failed to share the information with other key agencies.
The damning report comes from the federal Government Accountability Office (GAO) one year after a gunman's bullet grazed Trump's right ear during a campaign rally speech. The shooter, Thomas Crooks, killed attendee Cory Comperatore as he was protecting his family, while two others were injured.
...
the report also identified a series of procedural and planning mistakes, including "misallocation of resources, lack of training and pervasive communication failures" that led to the near assassination.
The report had been ordered by Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa.
...
the Secret Service agent who was responsible for "identif[ying] site vulnerabilities" was new to her role, and this was "her first time planning and securing a large outdoor event as the site agent."
...
Secret Service officials denied the Donald Trump Protective Division's request for enhanced counter Unmanned Aerial Surveillance (cUAS) equipment at the Butler event
...
The new report comes out as Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., approved a subpoena to the FBI and Justice Department for more information on the Butler assassination attempt.

Literally, heads need to roll if this is true.
I’d say the same if it were an attempt on Bidog or The Obamanation of Desolation’s life.
The plot thickens...
Always weary of WND, but if true, screw the firings, start the indictments.
THIS is a hundred thousand times bigger than Epstien. A SIRTIJG PRESIDENT TRIED TO KILL HIS RIVAL.
Giant WTF.
The stuff of conspiracies, like where was the autopen in this...
The assasination of Franz Ferdinand was as oddball should not have been possible, but successful.
Pennsylvania Ping!
Please ping me with articles of interest.
FReepmail me to be added to the list.

Sound off....”
Yeah, that’s why Jill had a sudden need for SS protection in wherewasit... Philly... at the same exact time?
Nothing will happen.
The conclusion is that the secret service was involved in an assassination conspiracy.
How?
The SS left a rooftop unsecured at the Butler Pa. rally and gunman picks THAT rof to shoot from?...you’ll never get me to believe that was all happenstance.
“Yada yada yada but but but Epstein THAT’S what is really important”
Surrender Monkeys.
The commanding officer of ship or airwing is not just randomly assigned from a deskjob auditing supply records. You have to have time in the seat as 2nd in command which you get by having a lot of time in the seat driving ships or flying airplanes and in both cases keeping them fixed, trained and operating.
Talk about bad judgment. Everyone involved in making that personnel decision should be assigned street cleaning duties in SF, Portland and Seattle.
Nope. WORST THING A PRESIDENT HAS EVER DONE
Now way that Biden didn’t know
Let him mill about the place for easily a half hour, probably longer, just before the event.
People in the audience spotted him and pointed him out to the SS agents, and they be like, "Huh? What? Where? I don' see nuttin'!"
Was just about to post that.
