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.
