NOW is the time for a bi-partisan J13 committee to be seated and begin activation.

They couldn’t wait to form a sham “bi partisan” committee to conclude that President Trump had CAUSED the “armed insurrection” on January 6, and orchestrated a months long made for/in HELLywood production “proving” President Trump was the ringleader of aforementioned insurrection and that he did it JUST by using words.

How did a 20 year old kid get to where he thought he was doing God’s work by killing President Trump ?

Certainly it wasn’t the WORDS of Maxine Waters, or Nancy Pelosi, or Chuck Schumer, or DOZENS of other public democrat voices . . . . .

or WAS it?

BREAKING: A source familiar with Trump’s security detail tells
@FDRLST
that the former and future president’s detail has been asking for beefed up protection and resources for weeks, but has been rebuffed time and again by Biden’s DHS.

DHS, which oversees Secret Service protective detail “wasn’t responsive to those requests” for more resources, the source said.

Was Biden’s regime behind the attack, or did it deliberately do everything it could to allow it to happen?

I am not a law enforcement official , nor do I have any great knowledge of security measures when people appear in public.

But cursory review of some of the photos we saw, make it appear that that building had a clear line of sight to the spot where Trump would be..

. But yet we were told, that that building was officially outside of the security perimeter that had been set up for that event.

And it begs the question why was that building with a clear view outside of the official security perimeter

How hard would it have been to stand where the President was going to be and scan the area for line-of-sight shooting opportunities? Why couldn’t the SS do that?

It’s so simple a caveman could do it.

"Unbelievable!"

You know deep down in your heart that it really is believable. It only makes sense that the deep state has been unsuccessful in trying to rid the political world of Donald Trump since 2015. They've tried everything possible, even changing statutes of limitation, and raising the level of misdemeanor crimes to felony level to get rid of him. They've failed miserably. The only other option is to kill him, or try to steal an election that they know will be very hard to accomplish this time around. Their last resort is to physically eliminate President Trump.

As with many past stories, if the government wants to stop these negative rumors then be open and honest and forthcoming with facts. Last night they repeated “we will not answer anything on that until later results of investigations” again and again.

They keep secrets and then feel self-pity.

Drones with infra red could detect snipers hidden in trees or rooftops easily. The SS denies Trumps team requested more agents. Somebody is lying.

BREAKING: Eye-witness says he saw the suspect climb on top of a nearby structure outside of the event and notified the police who didn’t take action.

“The guy army crawled up the building 50 feet from us... he had a rifle.”

“He’s crawling! I’m thinking, why is Trump still speaking!”

“I’m sitting there pointing at him for two or three minutes!”

“I am 100% certain...”

Not ignored. Cops went looking. One climbed onto the roof. When he got to the top of the ladder, the kid pointed the rifle at him, whereupon the cop started back down. Radios presumably started crackling about this rifle-armed kid. Cops aren’t paid to commit suicide. When your adversary has the drop on you, procedure is to back away and maneuver for a better position.

Susan Crabtree on Secret Service policy. Some of this could be based on candidate fear of political blowback, if an innocent gets killed.


[Here’s my reporting on why the Secret Service did not shoot until AFTER the shooter engaged and some context about the House Republicans’ investigation already underway (months before Trump’s assassination attempt) into whether the agency’s DEI policies are affecting its readiness.
The blowback against the Secret Service started within the hour of the assassination attempt and continued even after Trump and other credited the agency with saving Trump’s life by quickly killing a shooter crawling across a nearby rooftop.

But a source within the Secret Service community tells RealClearPolitics that the agency rules of engagement in this situation are to wait until the president is fired upon to return fire.

“You want to take a shot then find out the guy was holding a telescope?” the source suggested. “The Secret Service is by nature reactive…and you better be right when you do react or you’re f-——d.”

The Secret Service protocol requires that a counter sniper aware of a potential shooter to radio directly to intelligence division team to respond and investigate. In this case, the investigation may have been cut short by the shooter firing his weapon, so the counter sniper then fired as quickly as possible in return.

The source praised the counter sniper who acquired the target and responded within three seconds, calling their performance “incredible.”

“The counter snipers are highly trained and extremely accurate,” he said.]


From the cop’s standpoint, it makes sense. Thanks to Floyd, we’ve seen a violent felon’s death from drug overdose send four cops to prison for multiple decades each, while sending their families into bankruptcy. Putting a civilian down who turned out not to be an assassin could have catastrophic personal consequences. Qualified immunity is not a theoretical issue to a police sniper, given the generally lethal or catastrophically injurious nature of what they are tasked with doing.

An imbecilic assessment.
