RealClearPolitics White House and National Political Correspondent Susan Crabtree dropped an important report on the failure of the Secret Service to protect President Donald J. Trump and those around him during last week’s Pennsylvania rally.
According to Crabtree, the potential lack of drones and the “DEI” protocols at the Secret Service contributed to the failure, but the biggest reason Trump’s life was put in danger is because rules of engagement prohibit snipers from engaging until the assassin shoots first.

When I go on ‘news’ or ‘news Trump’ to look to see what else there is surprisingly no immediate articles come up about this whole assassination attemopt.
Kind of reminds me of when a kid is guilty and he doesn’t want to talk about it.
I would question when this ROE went into effect.
No time, no comms. From what I heard, shooter fired VERY shortly after the cop backed down.
Cop should have gotten out of view, drawn his weapon, popped up again and surprised the shooter by emptying his clip.
Well, that guy is afraid of walking the wrong direction and falling off the stage I think.
Very accurate. And again, Secret Service can assign tasks, but can NEVER assign responsibility. Never!
It wasn’t the Secret Service that were the counter-snipers. Their tactical vests say very clearly, “POLICE,” on them.
Has anyone seen this news story?
Secret Service blames local police, says they were tasked with securing properties surrounding Trump’s Pa. rally

“ Instead, they said, several factors contributed to Saturday’s security lapses, including that first lady Jill Biden was having an event the same day in nearby Pittsburgh, and Vice President Kamala Harris was having another in Philadelphia, taking up some of the local Secret Service resources that could have been used to help protect Trump’s rally.”

Just a coincidence - NOT! 50 states, and both are in the same state as Trump on the same day. BS that this is happenstance.
Is this the case for Biden as well? I doubt it.
Bongino show is on fire today. “No excuse, total failure” I agree
I was here when Kennedy was shot.
I was here when Reagan was hit
I was not a Kennedy fan.. But the death of the President was heartfelt. Honor him.
Today I see adult educated human beings wanting my President shot.. Dead!!
How did we get to this? The hate is openly showed and acted on.
My God..!!!
Even if true…
It does not explain why SS agents weren’t on the stage shielding President Trump. I mean, if there was even a question, you shield the president, right?
You want to take a shot then find out the guy was holding a telescope?
As a long time long range shooter, this is bull. They have probably a 6x36 Night Force on the rifle from 140 yards and can’t tell a rifle from a telescope? You can see bulletholes in a target at 200 yards with a $3000 riflescope, that is a fact!
Apparently, the rules of engagement for the Capitol Police are considerably different, they weren’t worried about Ashley Babbit firing first!
From the ashes the Phoenix doth rise!
We were devastated and then we got strength from DJT standing up and refusing to bow down to those liberal criminals.
Absolutely. If you can, watch today’s Louder with Crowder. He shows an attendee’ cell phone footage showing people pointing to the roof and yelling at police officers. I have never seen it before. Damning!
That is absolutely NOT true, per Dan Bongino, former SS Agent. If a true threat is detected, they MUST shoot him.
Evil. Someone wanted Trump dead.
And this isn’t a oh well, all is good.
SOMEONE IS DEAD and others are in critical condition. And others will be traumatized by this.
People need to be fired and people need to be held accountable.
ONE- PROTECT TRUMP.
TWO-KEEP A CLOSE EYE ON THE SECRET SERVICE PEOPLE AND MAKE SURE THEY DON’T TRY ANYTHING FUNNY….
I remember on this forum when a policeman tried to stop a shoplifter, who had been banned from the store already but went back to steal, and was caught in her door where she was driving away, dragging him off to a certain death. He shot and killed her and one frreeper wondered why he just didn’t do a warning shot in the air!!!!!
I mean, whuuuuutttt????????
Why no drone over the venue? Trump’s team should not use Open Air venues for these rallies. Too many areas to cover for potential shooters. 130 yard shot is nothing.
Yup, reactive logic. Zero predictive or preventative logic!
