Just for S & G's, I've been perusing YT clips of how the Hip Hop Community is viewing DJT after the assassination attempt. 

You'd be surprised....  among many, he's now considered full Gangsta, and a hero.

Secret Service faces serious questions about security footprint and rooftop access at Trump event

CNN By Whitney Wild, Evan Perez and Tierney Sneed 7/15/2024

 In the wake of the attempted assassination of Donald Trump, there are widespread concerns and questions about how a sniper was able to obtain rooftop access roughly 150 meters from the former president’s position at the podium at an outdoor rally.

Sources have described the shooting as coming from the “three o’clock” position of Trump’s podium location, with shots coming from his right side. Seconds after gunfire rang out, Secret Service counter-assault snipers began shooting the suspect who was found on top of a roof.

Notably, the shooter’s location was outside the security perimeter, raising questions about both the size of the perimeter and efforts to sweep and secure the American Glass Research building, and how the shooter was able to obtain rooftop access.

This is bogus. You think a professionally-trained sniper is going to go to Fortran and post something like this? It makes conservatives look bad when this kind of misinformation is out there. We ought to be better than that.

Whatever happened here (I suspect it was more DEI incompetence than intent), we will try to get to the bottom of it. This is not at all helpful.

Secret Service will participate in independent review of Trump assassination attempt, director says
by Sarah Fortinsky - 07/15/24 8:41 AM ET

The U.S. Secret Service plans to “participate fully” in an independent review of the assassination attempt against former President Trump, Director Kimberly Cheatle said in a statement Monday.

Cheatle said the agency would also work with Congress “on any oversight action” committees plan to take.

“The Secret Service is working with all involved Federal, state and local agencies to understand what happened, how it happened, and how we can prevent an incident like this from ever taking place again,” Cheatle said.

“We understand the importance of the independent review announced by President Biden yesterday and will participate fully. We will also work with the appropriate Congressional committees on any oversight action,” she added.

The statement comes amid mounting questions over how a gunman was able to get close enough to the former president to injure him with an AR-style rifle at Trhump’s Saturday rally – when a bullet grazed Trump’s ear and he was promptly rushed off stage by Secret Service agents.

Attendees knew he was on the roof.
Police knew he was on the roof.
Secret Service knew he was on the roof.
They knew he had a rifle.
And they waited for him to shoot. They didn’t even bother to remove Trump from the stage.

I've been watching and reading everything I could find about this incident for more than 48 hours now and think I have some idea about what took place. If what I think took place is true, you'll see it only here so pay attention.

The people responsible for this set the young man up to be the patsy (hat tip @jafo2010 ) used him to make sure he drew all the attention while the actual pro was on the roof of the building just behind the one the kid was on wearing attire (rifle and all) that blended with the building. When the kid opened up, the pro took one shot (the one that nearly did the job). When the counter snipers opened up on he kid, the pro slid down from his perch, got in his car, and calmly drove away.

Call me anything you want but that's what I think and it fits the MO.

Salena Zito post-shooting interview with Pres. Trump:  Trump rewrites Republican convention speech to focus on unity ,not Biden, Washington Examiner.
Quote
... “The speech I was going to give on Thursday was going to be a humdinger,” he said, “Had this not happened, this would’ve been one of the most incredible speeches” aimed mostly at the policies of President Joe Biden. “Honestly, it’s going to be a whole different speech now.”  ...

“This is a chance to bring the whole country, even the whole world, together. The speech will be a lot different, a lot different than it would’ve been two days ago,” he said.

The Washington Examiner’s interview with Trump had been due to take place on his airplane on the return flight from the rally to Bedminster. That arrangement put this reporter just feet from Trump when he was shot.  ...

Trump said when he stood up and saw the crowd had not moved, he needed to tell them that he and the country were going to be OK. “The energy coming from the people there in that moment, they just stood there; it’s hard to describe what that felt like, but I knew the world was looking. I knew that history would judge this, and I knew I had to let them know we are OK.” ...

I watched the BBC interview of a bystander who witnessed the shooter climbing on the roof and tried to get LE’s attention. Also saw phone video of the shooter inching forward on the roof. There were plenty of witnesses.

I found it remarkable the crowd had not scattered in a panic.

They didn't have time to panic. It takes some time for that to develop.

Jill Biden spoke with Melania Trump following Pennsylvania rally shooting: report
Former President Trump, President Biden also spoke by phone in wake of Butler, Pennsylvania, incident
 By Greg Norman , Brooke Singman Fox News
Published July 15, 2024 8:48am EDT

First lady Jill Biden reportedly spoke with former first lady Melania Trump in the wake of Saturday’s attempted assassination of former President Trump at a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.

Details of their conversation, which was first reported by NBC News, were not immediately available Monday. 

The White House, the Office of the First Lady of the United States, a spokesperson for Melania Trump and the Trump campaign did not immediately respond to requests for comment by Fox News.

"When I watched that violent bullet strike my husband, Donald, I realized my life, and Barron's life, were on the brink of a devastating change," Melania Trump said in a statement on Sunday. "I am grateful to the brave secret service agents and law enforcement officials who risked their own lives to protect my husband."

Honestly, I thought the Mod comment was lighthearted.

If he was a patriotic American who dared sit in Nancy Pelosi's chair while wearing a MAGA hat on January 6th, or a grandmother praying in front of a baby-murder clinic, Quantico would've moved heaven and earth already.

They can't get into his phone, but they already know he acted alone. Has it occurred to the geniuses at the FBI that the phone might reveal messages from a dozen people saying, "Okay, Tom, it's all planned, we're going to shoot him on July 13. You'll be able to get on top of that roof"?

They will NEVER "find" anything like that I'll assure you!

Trump under fire: New details emerge on rally shooting in Pennsylvania

Quote
Pennsylvania State Police Lieutenant Colonel George Bivens conveyed that authorities "do not believe it was a lone wolf attack." These words signal that the 20-year-old attacker most likely had accomplices.

How did he know there would be a building less than 150 yards from the speaker's platform that had an accessible roof (a handy ladder! Where did that come from?) and that it would be outside the so-called USSS "perimeter" of protection?

I am not and never have been a leftist.

If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

Biden hand-picked Kimberly Cheatle.  As with every pick joe has made, the job goes to the person most unqualified.
Perhaps Mayor Pete turned down the Secret Service job in favor of Secretary of Transportation.

Video shows Trump gunman crawling on roof while multiple people alert police: ‘He’s on the roof!’



Shocking video shows would-be assassin Thomas Matthew Crooks crawling onto the roof from where he shot former President Donald Trump — as onlookers frantically point him out to nearby police officers.

Video shared on X captured concerned rally-goers in Butler, Pennsylvania noticing Crooks, 20, crawling onto the roof of a manufacturing plant around 400 feet from where Trump was speaking and growing increasingly frustrated as cops ignore their alarm throughout the 52-second clip.

“Look they’re all pointing,” the man behind the video camera says, with people pointing and looking straight at Crooks, who can be seen clearly on the roof.

Just another case of 'the Government' investigating itself for criminal acts and not finding any.
OK everyone, the investigation is completed and we find ourselves innocent of everything.

The Secret Service allegedly flagged the building rooftop from which a gunman attempted to assassinate Trump days before the event…and then did nothing to secure it.

I wonder why they would’ve refused to cover and secure the most obvious potential assassination site. https://nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/trump-rally-shooting-secret-service-identified-rooftop-security-flaw-rcna161783
