The local SWAT team assigned to help protect former President Donald Trump on July 13 had not had any contact with the Secret Service agents in charge of security before a would-be assassin opened fire, those officers told ABC News. It was a critical part of the planning and communications failures that ended with a gunman killing one man, critically injuring two more and wounding Trump as he delivered a speech just days before accepting the Republican presidential nomination. "We were supposed to get a face-to-face briefing with the Secret Service members whenever they arrived, and that never happened," said Jason Woods, lead sharpshooter on the SWAT team in Beaver County. "So I think that was probably a pivotal point, where I started thinking things were wrong because it never happened," Woods said. "We had no communication." In their first public comments since the assassination attempt, the SWAT team on the ground that day and their supervisors spoke exclusively with ABC News Senior Investigative Correspondent Aaron Katersky. It is the first time any key law enforcement personnel on-site July 13 have offered first-hand accounts of what occurred. They explained that they did what they could to try to thwart the attack but now have to live with the failure. Article.

Trollfest '09
Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.
Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).
Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.
Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".
In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.
In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.
Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.
Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!
This is definitely a Beaver production.

Sid Salter of The Clarion-Ledger will host "Pin the Tail on the Trial Lawyer", sponsored by State Farm.
There will be a hugging booth where in exchange for your young son, Frank Melton will give you a loooong hug. Trollfest will have a dunking booth where Muhammed the terrorist will curse you to Allah as you try to hit a target that will drop him into a vat of pig grease. However, in the true spirit of Separate But Equal, Don Imus and someone from NE Jackson will also sit in the dunking booth for an equal amount of time. Tom Head will give a reading for two hours on why he can't figure out who the hell he is. Cliff Cargill will give lessons with his .80 caliber desert eagle, using Frank Melton photos as targets. Tackleberry will be on hand for an autograph session. KIM Waaaaaade will be passing out free titles and deeds to crackhouses formerly owned by The Wood Street Players.

SS, FBI, local PD, state police, whatever, it doesn’t matter; they’re all just cops. You can’t and shouldn’t believe what they say just because they’ve nailed down a government gig. Cops are the only people across society who are as likely to lie under oath as a criminal defendant.
I'm kinda stunned the local SWAT team would expect to be consulted when there are armored limos and no parades down streets these days. And there's that the population of Butler PA is 13176 people. That includes babies.
Are there now SWAT teams at every open air event? Do they have SWAT at Nesohba? Are Mississippi's Capitol police and State troopers coordinating protection of the political speech makers? Are there law enforcement snipers on top of all those cabins and SWAT teams at the gates ready to move in?
Fake gross incompetence event designed to appear as gross incompetence after Trump was assassinated. That kid was going to get killed on that roof even if he never fired the weapon.

Please ignore the first two posts from useful idiots (or just one posting twice) who are suffering from TDS and wish Trump's head had resembled that of JFK after the shooting.
The local LEO snipers reportedly called attention to the shooter 90 minutes before Trump took the stage. Something is rotten in the state of Denmark.
This was nothing short of a coup. This is the first time in my life that I honestly feel like the USA is done for. When our own government allows this to take place and maybe even coronates it we are done. Love your county always, love your government when they deserve it.
@07:47 - it isn’t "consulted"…it’s coordination to make sure there aren’t any holes in the plan. The 4 details I experienced over the years had coordination briefs.
Video has now come out from a person between the fence and the building where Thomas Crooks attempted to assassinate former President Trump. One officer is seen trying to clear people from the lawn, saying that they are trespassing. Other officers have surrounded the building. They are looking and pointing at the roof. From the angle where the video is shot, it is impossible to see Crooks. At 3:03 you hear the shots being fired, and the return shot from the Secret Service sniper.

It’s the SS responsibility to determine the security plan delegate and communicate responsibility to local agencies.
If he hadn’t turned his head, we’d be at war with Iran as we speak
From listening to the Senate hearing today, with the Secret Service representative, and FBI, it sounded to me as if the Secret Service acting Director was placing the blame on the local units.
While listening to an interview with, the local SWAT unit leader, that leader said they never had a face to face meeting with the Secret Service leader. Someone isn't being truthful.
Both things could be the truth. The local sniper team was looking out of a second story window on the same building the shooter was lying on. The Secret Service skipped the meeting with the local swat team.
In your world, both things may be true, but not in this world. The responsibility rest squarely on the Secret Service. It is their responsibility to post up, and/or assign the local units duties. The Secret Service failure is inexcusable. Yet, no one has been fired over this failure.
Please tell us which one is not true.
