The gunman who tried to assassinate Donald Trump fired from a rooftop that the U.S. Secret Service had declared to be outside its security perimeter -- a fatal omission that the agency should not have made, according to two of its former officials.

Two local Pennsylvania police officers who went to check out a dispatch call of a suspicious person in the area were alone when one of them, hoisted up by a partner to check the roof, was confronted by the gunman, 20-year-old Thomas Crooks, Butler County Sheriff Michael Slupe said in an interview.

C’mon guys. That roof was STEEP. It was at least a foot or 18 inches taller at the center than at the eaves. These are police officers and SS men... NOT mountain goats.

Mayorkas isn’t going anywhere, he has 111 days to complete his assignment.
They will try again.
Meanwhile they are obfuscating, erasing, sweeping, and planting lies as fast as they can.
Nor do I trust the feckless ******s in Congress to arrive at the truth.

Disagree with the premise...

The roof was “secured” by the WH...
It almost worked as carefully planned by the biden-obama cabal running the country...

Officials of the town now claiming their only assignment was 7 officers were assigned to traffic detail. Nothing else.

He got a phone call and they said "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening"

Probably one of Epstein’s security guards.

Those boys just got bad timing.

That roof wasn’t secured because they didn’t want to distract the assassin

Trump saved himself when he ducked and dodge any additional shots after the first nicked him. SS stormtroopers did absolutely nothing until Trump was on the floor. They waited for some more people to be shot and killed before they did anything at all
