MILWAUKEE – The Secret Service will make no changes to security at the Republican National Convention in the aftermath of an assassination attempt against former President Donald Trump, the agency said Sunday.
“We are confident in the plans that we have and are moving forward with those plans,” Audrey Gibson-Cicchino, the Secret Service’s RNC convention coordinator, told reporters.
Trump, 78, will arrive in Milwaukee on Sunday ahead of the four-day convention during which he will be formally named the Republican nominee for president.
Earlier in the day, President Biden announced that he had directed the Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle to “review all security measures” for the GOP convention in light of the shooting at a Trump rally Saturday that left the former president bloodied, one rally-goer dead and two more injured.
“That security plan will remain in place,” Gibson-Cicchino said, referencing the current security footprint, which will allow armed protesters to enter a so-called “soft perimeter” near the convention site.
Closer to Fiserv Forum, where Trump and other GOP pols will address delegates, a “hard” perimeter has been set up by the Secret Service, restricting those parts of downtown Mikwaukee to only credentialed convention attendees.
RNC officials and the Secret Service have spent 18 months making security preparations for the thousands of delegates, politicians, press and protesters that have already descended on the Midwestern city for the conference, which starts on Monday.

Great article. I can see and hear Obama through that whole story.
They’re making a mistake, if so. It will only serve to encourage someone to try again since they got so incredibly close this time.
They are with swamp
Translation: “We’re certain we’ll get him next time!”
Homeland Security since 2003
Sec. Mayorkas
Is there anything preventing the RNC from also supplying some of their own security?
There is Evidence of treason, treason, and treason,
and a set-up by the SS, CIA, FIB and DOJ
to murder the President.
No accountability. Yet again.
Americans are about to vote for the Red Hats.
The “we don’t shoot until shots are fire” protection plan”…… you know that person in the security area could have a telescope on the roof…..
Dan Bongino as head of security. Hire Marcus Lutrell types and others who would certainly volunteer. If by some miracle Trump overcomes fraud and survives the election, FIRE everyone involved in tha blumpkin of an extraction, including the shitty snipers, and JAIL the pig in charge of the SS
I stand corrected. thanks.
Mayorkas is (#_%(@#^(@!. I won’t spell it out on a public forum.
One of the female agents left President Trump’s center mass and head exposed. That was not an accident. The other women at the President’s vehicle were having trouble holstering their weapons like they had not practiced it at all. But they looked tough with their raybans and all.
If I were President Trump, I would have former special forces soldiers for security and tell the Democrat party’s Secret Service types to take a hike.
“RNC chair says convention ‘very comfortable’ with security following Trump rally shooting”
I honestly thought that headline was from the Babylon Bee.
Somebody with an IQ above ape level might want to review what happened in PA and see if any of the issues just might be relevant to the convention.
Those apes might want to start with security coverage of “the high ground”, communications and command and control protocols, rules of engagement protocols etc etc etc.
Btw—if they insist they are going to wait until the shooter fires the first shot then at least they should clear the podium area immediately when a potential shooter is spotted—and not wait for the first shot.
Remember when Biden’s team was trying to shield him from reporters when he’d be walking outside? They had so many SS you couldn’t even see him in the middle. Trump gets DEI hires way to short to even take a bullet for him.
From WIKIPEDIA: "The United States Secret Service (USSS or Secret Service) is a federal law enforcement agency under the Department of Homeland Security with the purpose of conducting criminal investigations and protecting U.S. political leaders, their families, and visiting heads of state or government.[3] The Secret Service was, until 2003, part of the Department of the Treasury, due to their initial mandate of combatting counterfeiting of U.S. currency".
Who is the head of Homeland Security? Maybe Mayorkas?
They are not reliable. Get private security.
“Mayorkas?”
You are correct.
Biden appointed both Janet Yellen and Kimberly Cheatle. Here’s how the confiscation process for both started;

I was corrected, thanks.
Mayorkas is a scum of the first order. We’ll never be told the truth on this shooting or other things.
