  • TRUMP LATEST NEWS: The head of the Secret Service has revealed that the shooter who tried to kill former President Trump was identified as a "potential person of suspicion," but by the time units were able to track him down, he had managed to open fire at the rally in Pennsylvania.
    United States Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle made the remark in an interview that aired on ABC News just hours after Fox News Digital reported that a local law enforcement officer spotted a suspicious man carrying a range-finder just 30 minutes before Saturday’s attempted assassination in Butler.
    That officer reported the sighting to state police, a law enforcement source said. He took a photo, and there was a discussion about whether what he was carrying was a pair of binoculars to try and see the rally better. But then a few minutes into Trump's remarks, the would-be assassin - identified as Thomas Crooks, 20 - began shooting, according to authorities.
    Cheatle acknowledged in the interview that responsibility for the security failure that led to the attempted assassination of Trump ultimately rests with herself.
    "The buck stops with me," Cheatle said, adding that "This is an event that should have never happened."
    She said the Secret Service was aware of the security vulnerabilities presented by the building Crooks took a sniper's position on to aim at Trump. However, a decision was made not to place any personnel on the roof.
    "That building in particular has a sloped roof at its highest point. And so, you know, there's a safety factor that would be considered there that we wouldn't want to put somebody up on a sloped roof. And so, you know, the decision was made to secure the building, from inside," she said.
    A local law enforcement officer spotted a suspicious man carrying a range-finder "in or just-outside" the venue before former President Donald Trump took the stage at his rally in Butler County, Pennsylvania on Saturday night, according to a law enforcement source.
    The officer reported the sighting to state police, the source said. He took a photo, and there was a discussion about whether what he was carrying was a pair of binoculars to try and see the rally better.
    A few minutes into Trump's remarks, a would-be assassin identified as Thomas Crooks, 20, opened fire, according to authorities. He wounded the former president, killed a 50-year-old father of two and wounded two more spectators before a Secret Service counter-sniper neutralized the threat, according to authorities.
    It was not immediately clear how long Crooks was on the roof, but sources say he was initially seen without the gun about 30 minutes before the attack.
    State police did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the source's version of events.

Incompetence is the only thing they are good at. All they do is shrug their shoulders but nobody are ever held accountable. Biden even said no US soldiers died since he became president. Those soldiers who died in Afghanistan during his disastours withdrawal were obviously not American enough for him.

    Her statement made no sense whatsoever. They had plenty of time time. Members of the public were pointing to the shooter on the roof 10 minutes before the shots were fired. One officer reported the guy in the area 30 minutes before hand. The Secret Service snipers must have seen him on the roof. He was only 130 meters away. Why did the wait until he fired his weapon before taking him out. Something is not right here.

      And it was the one and only roof that was close by at all. If you’re the secret service sniper with that high of a vantage point, if you’re not looking at the closest roof at all for a good few minutes, then what are you looking at? And the footage of the secret service sniper shows clearly that he was looking in the assassin’s direction the entire time, but waited to act until after the shots flew.

      It looks to be a 3/12 pitch. The roof the SS counter snipers were on was pitched and looked to be even steeper. Possibly a 4/12 or 5/12. Her reasoning is complete BS.
      And you know what you do if the roof is too steep to get on? You rent a damn man lift and put a guy in it near the building with adequate sight lines of the surrounding rooftops. This stuff doesn't take a genius to figure out. If you're worried about falling they make fall arrest systems that clamp to standing seam metal panels and you hook your harness into it. You would think the SS would talk to someone who knows about accessing roofs safely.

      That was what? 2/12? Not as steep as my roof.

    From a Secret Service job interview: “We may occasionally ask you to be a human shield in the event of gunfire, but we’ll NEVER ask you to secure a gently-sloped roof.”

    What a joke. If she really said that she should resign in disgrace! The slope of the roof is so small. The Secret Service snipers behind Trump were on a roof with a similar small slope. Obviously the slope of the roof isn't the issue.
