Fun Fact: Julia Pierson was the first woman to serve as the USSS Dir., from 2013 to 2014. She was appointed by Obama & served as the USSS 23rd agency Dir., a move widely interpreted as an effort to both temper the machismo of the agency and promote "Diversity". She was SS Dir. when Omar Gonzalez, on September 19, 2013, a 42-year-old Iraq war veteran, jumped the WH fence and made it INTO the East Room of the WH. She resigned in 2014. It now appears DHS & the current SS Dir. assigned roughly only (3 or 4) actual specialized and highly trained SS agents and/or officer(s) to the DJT detail [ B/c other Gov. agencies security personnel were used ] then Cheatle just admitted DHS and SS utilized inexperienced and/or under-trained security personnel to protect DJT. Additionally, who was the site protection detail lead agent coordinating actual site security, was it a female agent? Things that should make you say hmm.. and so I mention the aforementioned because an official statement of [No Confidence] of upper management must be made by the rank and file for accountability purposes..

[@trywallin4405]

Even if everyone agrees on the failure of Secret Service many questions remains unanswered, where the former Secret Service boss was just dodging & ducking all questions. For example, did Crooks use the 5 ft ladder he bought (not found near the HGR Construction), and if so, where? Why didn't the police/Secret Service have access to any ladder? How many of the 8 shots heard (3+5 shots) came from Crooks? Secret Service's snipers only need 1 shot so maybe the 5 last shots didn't come from Secret Service? Kimberly Cheatle didn't even know how many shell casings there were from Crooks rifle. 8 shell casings has been recovered next to Crooks body according to Col. Paris (PSP). Where there counter snipers in the HGR construction, and if so, where? Why only 22 (out of more than 8000 employees) - whereof an undisclosed amount of temporary/inexperienced agents - from Secret Service at an event with ten thousands of participants, protecting the person who lives under the probably biggest threat in the world? Why didn't Cheatle want to reveal that there were 22 agents and why did she repeatedly claim that there was enough people to protect Trump? There were 30 from PSP plus an unknown number of Butler Police. Especially strange considering the extended threat to Trump from Iran (where Biden let thousands of illegal Iranians into US thru the Mexican border). Was Butler, Pa. commissioner truthful when he claimed that USSS lied and that all of the police only were there for traffic duty? Why was Trump denied requests for more security, and who denied this? Why didn't FBI add resources? Whatabout the Democrats who wanted to take away Trump's Secret Service protection completely, just weeks before the assassination attempt? Why were Secret Service and the police on different radio frequencies? Is that standard, and if so why? There where 3 different radio systems/frequencies; USSS, Pen State Police & Butler Police - plus phones, voice & text thru some text system - and it seems like this contributed to the obvious communication failure. Col. Paris (PSP responsible) said he doesn't know the routines for how to relay info from the radio communication (or phones) to the correct person (he says only USSS knows this) or if his police could access the other frequences. Why wasn't the radio communication recorded at the event? Cheatle says it's recorded otherwise. Secret Service knew about the threat more than 1 hour before Crooks started shooting. Why did Secret Service let Trump speak in spite of that they knew about Crooks even before Trump went on the stage? Why wasn't Crooks investigated by USSS when he was considered to be a suspicious subject (not even at 5:30 or 5:52)? Seems like Secret Service had Crooks in the crosshairs already 19 minutes before Crooks started shooting. Why did the Secret Service's snipers have their weapons directed towards Crooks for so long (19 minutes) without shooting? Why did they let Trump continue to speak? Why were there no counter sniper team in the water tower (most elevated position, 160 yards away from Trump)? When was the last sweep of the roof where Crooks was shooting from, and the area around it? Why did Secret Service let Crooks run a drone over the area (even more than 1 time)? Why didn't USSS have any drones (or chopper)? Why did the police have to tear down the fence and drive thru a gate to be able to get to the building where Crooks was on the roof? When & why did Thomas Crooks father call the police, worried about what his son would do, how did that conversation go and did USSS search for this info? Who approved the security plan? Who was the site command/site supervisor? Seems like there was a planning problem, a coordination problem and a supervision problem. Who was in what command center at what time? Exactly who signed off on the security plan? Where's the accountability? Nobody has been disciplined and everybody who failed their mission are still active and can continue to put presidents and others at risk for another 60 days or more, during a presidential campaign. Nobody has been fired or even suspended. Why was 'The Beast' not parked immediately adjacent to the stage (with a secure distance to the public) to facilitate a fast exit for Trump? Why did Kimberly Cheatle (one of many Trump-haters & Jill Biden's favorite security guard) lie about the slope on the building, and about who were in the building ('local police') with Crooks on the roof. Kimberly Cheatle had no answers during the hearing 9 days after the assassination attempt. Cheatle knew just about nothing, not even that it was 130-140 yards between Crooks & Trump. Transparency from USSS is close to none.
