The Secret Service had already been under investigation by House Oversight Committee Republicans for several months when a bullet came within inches of killing former President Trump, killed a bystander, and injured at least two others at a rally in Pennsylvania Saturday afternoon.
Even though Trump and his family members credited the special agents and a counter sniper assigned to his protective detail with saving his life and possibly many others, recriminations against the Secret Service started almost immediately after the assassination attempt.

How’d he get a ladder there??
How’d he had a long rifle?
Why were the rooftops not under LEO control?
Why, when warned by attendees, was no action taken?
They had the loon and they let him go in and kill Trump. But for Trump turning his head... where would we be today?
Well damn it, GOP, do something!
Stop writing letters, endless investigations that go nowhere and show some action, you lazy Bass Turds!!
It doesn’t feel like incompetence.
The GOP will be sure to ignore communications command and control during the event.
They do not want to find anything that forces them to actually do something.
Water tower 90ft tall, 100yrds East of assassin.
No over watch?
That vantage point easily covers the area
Why is no one talking about this?
Meanwhile nobody notified the SS on stage that there was an imminent threat?
Lol.
The communications command and control was in the hands of co-conspirators of the assassination plot.
Jill hires Cheatle, Jill schedules same day event as Trump, Cheatle moves top officers to Jill, Cheatle leaves Trump defenseless.
You’re right. The level of incompetence you would have to accept to believe this wasn’t deliberate is just too high.
Yes, he should have been removed from that stage. The person who failed to order that task needs to be put under fire in a Congressional hearing.
Corey is dead because of it.
As a side note, that failure by the Biden employee has likely ensured Trump’s victory ( if they can’t cheat their way out of it)
“”””Even though Trump and his family members credited the special agents and a counter sniper assigned to his protective detail with saving his life””””
Trump has nothing to gain at this time by bashing the SS.
But wait until Jan 20, 2025 when Trump is inaugerated and it will be very different as the government goons are handed their pink slips.
How many more idiots can the CIA talk into shooting Trump before they can no longer claim to be innocent of the plan to do so?
Imagine no SS or police did ANYTHING to avert the idiot who shot at Trump even having 26 minutes before he did so? AND 2 snipers in the building he was on top of. How dumb are we if we believe their lies? And THE PEOPLE did THEIR job in finding this fool.
From what I have seen, there was a permanent ladder on the building for servicing the flat roof.
Main point is, why a rooftop with direct line of sight was left unprotected by the SS? It was only 150 meters from podium where Trump would be speaking. This is very suspicious overlook by the secret service.
Plausible? Yeah, right! I can take my nine year grandson to the site with his BB gun. If I show him the building and where Trump would be and tell him his job was to make sure no one shoots Trump. The very first thing he’d ask is how do I get on the roof. This is beyond elementary. Making the excuse that the chocolate doughnuts might’ve melted up on that roof doesn’t pass the smell test.
Have you seen the video of sniper crawling around on the roof and everyone within 50 yards screaming and pointing him out? The Secret Service eyes were on him this whole time. Since you’re telling me there were no radios to verify the sniper was a sniper, they still would have had time to send a runner for communications.
“The person who failed to order that task needs to be put under fire in a Congressional hearing.”
I don’t think you are looking in the right place.
I don’t believe anyone on stage knew there was a sniper on the roof—so there was no order for anyone on stage to give.
The assassination plotters controlled centralized communications to make sure they were kept in the dark.
If you look for “mistakes” you are looking in the wrong place.
It was intentional.
It is a HOME DEPOT ladder the kid bought.
There’s a photo of it propped up against the building!
“””Imagine no SS or police did ANYTHING to avert the idiot who shot at Trump even having 26 minutes before he did so?”””
I have seen similar reports that the SS or police had seen the shooter 30 minutes prior, but lost sight of him.
So why did SS even allow Trump to go on stage when they knew there was a suspicious person in the vicinity? Afterall, Trump being late to come onstage at a rally has been a rather common occurrence.
That's the money line.
