Jill Biden caused the short-staffing.

The USSS wanted to be at her event so they could hear her new "walk-on" music

I bet you a dollar that there were sloping roofs at the Nato summit.

I agree.

And having them there gives them the opportunity to “help” an assassin do the deed. As seems to have happened here.

NATO summit ended Wed, July 10

New DEI work rules: get 3 weeks off for every one you work at a big event like NATO?

The disrespect for the people of the US, the Congress and all other involved parties like the police is stunning. The SS & DOJ are telling us how stupid they think we are and how corrupt they are. There should be many firings and some prison sentences.

The totalitarian Dem Party chummed the water for 8 years getting their base riled up and foaming at the mouth for blood and then they sent Trump unprotected into the shark infested waters hoping for him to be killed.

It may be about various people unable to attend briefings because of NATO

That made them treat the young lad as a VIP and the belle of the ball?

I guess the almost flat roof excuse didn’t go over.

“...to hire their own security beholden only to them.”


The advantage of using federal l.e.o.’s is that they can be legally armed in every state, local laws notwithstanding. Imagine the permits required to handguns into New York State.

Now one way around this is to deputize them as U.S. Marshalls. That’s how DiFi could conceal carry everywhere. But that requires a Justice Department that doesn’t want you dead.

"In addition to the NATO summit, which concluded on Thursday, the Secret Service had to cover campaign appearances by First Lady Jill Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris last weekend."

The FBI....Saaay, isn't this the same FBI that raided a former Presidents house using the excuse he had documents he had every right to have, and while in his house they put pre-printed covers they brought with them that said TOP SECRET and put them on the floor, took photos of them and leaked them to the media? That FBI?

Look at this Trump guy, how careless of him leaving obvious top secret documents lying around. But remember folks, they aren't trying to destroy him or kill him.

Biden bragged they were hiring something like 87,000 more IRS bozos. Why could they not of hired, trained and paid 500 more SS agents.

Staffing shortage is not even relevant. They had eyes on a guy with a gun 20 minutes before he took the shot. Everything else is just smokescreen.

Hillary probably wanted to add Trump to Alamo-Girl’s Clinton Body Count page.

They sure weren’t short of government employees on any of the politically motivated raids the feds conducted on opponents of the regime.

It doesn’t even rise to flimsy. ONE SS agent could have prevented the kill shot that this kid had all the time in the world to take, as multiple people screamed of and pointed to his presence as he sat in the crosshairs of a defensive sniper team for the better part of a half hour utterly and absolutely unmolested until he fired and was instantly silenced forever. When the job was done the SS acted.

They still have to kill Trump you know. The huge problem they attempted to solve with his death still threatens. They’ll try again. Maybe a plane crash this time.
