Mayorkas Is Blocking Secret Service Director From Testifying
Town Hall ^ | 07/17/24 | Katie Pavlich

Posted on 07/17/2024 11:03:55 AM PDT by Enlightened1

The Department of Homeland Security has opened an investigation after the Secret Service catastrophically failed to protect former President Donald Trump at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania last weekend. Trump narrowly escaped death after a bullet went through his ear while he was speaking at a lectern. The shooter was positioned on an unsecured roof just 140 yards away from the stage. The DHS Inspector General has also opened an investigation.

Republicans and Democrats on Capitol Hill have also launched separate investigations and have called on Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle to testify on Monday, July 22.

According to House Speaker Mike Johnson, DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas is attempting to block Cheatle from testifying. Johnson called on Cheatle to resign during an interview with Fox News Wednesday morning.

During remarks at the RNC convention in Milwaukee Tuesday night, Johnson vowed to get to the bottom of what happened.

The difference today is the reach of the internet and social media.

If Mayorkas, Cheatle, Garland, and all the rest refuse to cooperate with House Republicans or their own Inspector General, then people should be free to make the conclusions that they are involved in a conspiracy, and say so publicly to smoke them out.

Make them come out and deny it while simultaneously blocking investigations that would prove it. Let the court of public opinion work its magic.

Right now, they have the appearance of guilt by being uncooperative. It's time to say it publicly that they are acting guilty of something unless and until they appear before Congress.

Some Congresspeople should be saying it too -- on the floor of the House where they are Constitutionally protected -- and accuse Mayorkas and Cheatle of covering something up that's too damaging to Democrats if the public were to know about it.

I like your idea. Keep re-submitting, force them to evade over and over. Mike Johnson is totally useless at what he needs to do.

On another note, a lot of the speakers have talked about the open borders at the RNC convention. I had hoped that at least a few of them will loudly point out that Chuck Schumer is blocking Mayorkas impeachment in the Senate.

Show the dem administration, both in the executive, congress, and at the state level as being completely lawless, above the law, and out of control.

Mayorkas is Jewish so going after him would label you by the press as a bigot.

The parade route was changed in the last 24 hours before the assassination.

The mayor of Dallas’ brother was a general basically in charge of military intelligence.

He was fired by Kennedy as a result of the Bay of Pigs.

FWIW Ruby pointed the finger at the “Texans” namely LBJ who was the most ambition man in Texas at the time.

The cover-up of Tippit’s murder was more a product of local authorities than federal agencies.

There was a question of the chain of custody of four bullets that really were the only link between Tippit’s murder and Oswald.

Ruby had been mobbed up in Chicago but incredibly he seemed more scared of the “Texans”.

The Feds were involved from the get go on the cover-up.

But this murder could have only happened in Texas because of the locals.

In my view this assassination attempt was better planned and better executed than Kennedy’s in Dallas.

Trump is alive ONLY through Divine intervention.

The staging of the kill shot was so perfect that only an average degree of skill was required.

The shooter evidently was more than willing to go on a suicide mission as he could see the counter snipers had him scoped.

We may never know the details but I feel some locals as well as the SS was involved in this near perfect set-up.

I thought the Left hated the Jews? I just can't keep up.

The biden-obama cabal has the wagons circled...

A repeat of the French revolution’s aftermath in town squares should be a strong possibility...

It’s almost as if Dems knew that the acts of the flunkeys they appointed would be condemned. Even if there were a few decent Dem senators and Mayorkas was replaced, they have plenty of replacements. Cheatle is Dr. Jill’s protege.

I can't find anything about Shapiro interfering in this, except that the state police work for him. What have you found? Shapiro has been suggested as a Biden or Kamala replacement.
