This quote gets me "The presence of women on the security detail for the world’s most important political figure shows that we have actively unlearned things about human nature that our forebearers already knew. We are actively losing scientific knowledge."
We have a new definition: "An incompetent fattie hired absent the ability to pass a basic physical qualification test, unable to properly handle a firearm, who turns to panicked jelly when faced with doing the job she was hired for.".
The amount of apologetics and mental gymnastics around this online is astounding - that it was an incredibly hard shot to pull off so they didn’t expect it, or that the CS teams couldn’t see that roof so couldn’t have known.
On the KD course S-1 guys would easily be hitting black from the 200, standing. I could take any random 19yo SOI grad, have him make a sketch and realize there was a dead zone on that roof that needs covered. Or idk the basic intuition that any potential vantage point within 800m needs covered. And we got some epic photos but that the SS team let their principal stand up and expose himself to the crowd for multiple seconds after receiving fire, with the one guy behind Trump just awkwardly holding his arm overhead.
Yes coaching from the sidelines is easy but anyone with a minimum of experience in this domain can tell what an absolute clown show this was.
Yeah that was the same shot as the "moving targets" portion of the old USMC table 2 rifle qual. The portion where almost everyone hits every shot. In other words, the most basically trained person with a rifle can hit that. We're just lucky the kid was inexperienced and probably jittery and rushing.
I substantially agree with everything written here. I would like to point out an alternative explanation for not clearing and controlling the roof. The Secret Service team were very low on resources. They had called this out multiple times to the DEI-hire head of the Service and been refused assistance. In those circumstances their zone of responsibility necessarily had to contract to the immediate area around the President. Nearby rooftops were delegated to state and local police. In turn this created a coordination problem that armed men on the rooftops might be part of the police security operation. Potentially the wilful under-resourcing of the Secret Service detail is the root cause of the failure. Not to deny other alternative explanations.
The understaffed argument while accurate and valid (they have been asking for augmentation to his protection detail and been rebuffed by the DEI girl-boss - could have easily been addressed by posting one observer on the water tower, that is the high point for miles. It no only has clear line of sight over the entire event field it has the same of the roof top the shooter traversed and set up on. One man, with a radio, to cover all the roof tops at the event.
And as for radios, how is it the SS advance team didn't ensure their one force multiplier (communications) was seamless?
While in the military we worked with locals, sister services and foreign military and always ensured we had comms nailed.
I'd encourage all to tune into Dan Bongino's podcast tomorrow (Monday). He will have the best analysis of this colossal failure and the details we are all overlooking.
Strategically placed, Trump 2024 banners blocking the lines of sight would have been very effective. Diversity hires are dangerous no matter where they are found !!!
This understaffing excuse doesn’t fly. That building should have had an agent posted on it, end of story. Local cops could’ve been on crowd control, and patrolling the perimeter of the event. It was either sheer incomoetence or an inside job. All agents in charge of the semantics of the security detail as well as the bumbling DEI hires that where around the president should be canned.
The resource limitations are just a fact. There's no arguing it. I agree they should have got local cops up there but they did not have enough Secret Service agents. They repeatedly requested more and Cheadle or Mayorkas turned them down. That's on them.
Butler Township commissioner Edward Natali confirmed that the Butler Township Police Dept ("BTPD") had NO security detail for this event. All seven officers were assigned to traffic detail. He wrote on Twitter on July 21 that "the BTPD was NOT responsible for securing AGR or any other location. Anyone who says so, reports on it, implies, etc... is uninformed, lying, or covering their own backsides. I trust I am being loud and clear."
How in the hell can an obese woman who can’t handle her pistol get on the presidential security detail? DEI is ridiculous. And that’s just one of the fuck ups from the SS. Embarrassing.
Only a leftist freak like you would think my statement is complicated. Is that because you are a tranny groomer? You think surgically mutilating and chemically castrating children is healthcare, don’t you?
If I had been in the crowd in front of her I’d hoped she’d holster her gun instead of pointing it into the crowd with a panicked, wild-eyed look. How could anyone trust her with a LOADED weapon?? Under pressure all the female SS agents came unhinged…
When the first shots were heard, the female agents around Trump ducked. They actually DUCKED, with their personal safety paramount in their minds. So yeah, fire them at the very least.
“The same goes for all other leading Right wing politicians in America. You cannot trust your personal security into the hands of a government that both hates you and is filled with incompetent fools.”
Some jobs are men's work, and some are women's work. I do know women who would be extremely competent and deadly as bodyguards (unlike these pathetic SS girls who shamed themselves), but they are on the extreme end of the distribution of women's abilities in this regard. SS should be recruiting from the extreme end of the men's distribution.
But even so, if you gave them serious training I bet the average woman from among my junior/senior students would have more presence of mind and self-control under fire than these SS girls showed.
The leaders of America's "security" apparatus have already repeatedly broken laws in order to get Trump. It is obvious that deep state malice played an major role in the near murder of our president and one other, and the murder of a good American citizen.
Question: Why did the secret service agents allow Trump to stand up? If this shooting was a surprise to the USSS, then how did they know it was safe to let the president stand up immediately after only one shooter had been taken out? How did the USSS know there were no more shooters? Because they had planned the whole thing and they knew only one shooter was there.
WRT the Reagan video, you would have to time the reaction of the agents in milliseconds. It was pure instinct, rising above professional to the absolute best the country has to offer. Mesmerizing devotion to duty.
I would think the dead fireman had the same reaction speed saving his children from gunfire.
I am a female professional good at my legal job and have four ponies: I will not use female farriers. Lots of reasons - mostly my ponies’ well being; my ponies, all mares, are not into DEI and stuff.
Excellent post-mortem including the transcript that exposes yet again the failures of DEI / gender equality hiring. This reads like the "don'ts" in a security training video. Men are naturally superior in situational awareness, tactical response, and physical strength in combat and protection of lives under fire. That is a fact and we should accept it and optimize it.
The first time I saw/heard video of the assassination attempt, red flags immediately flew high in my brain when I heard that incompetent agent saying “what’re we doing, what’re we doing!!” And sounding all panicked. Cheatle and all the women agents need to go. When priority of the secret service changed from protection to diversity, we get an example of the direct result: not the best hires for the most important job- protecting the president from crazies. And I am a woman. Agree that Trump needs to hire his own. I have questions too about complicity too by DCBlob in this. God help us and God bless Trump/USA.
Of course you are right.
This quote gets me "The presence of women on the security detail for the world’s most important political figure shows that we have actively unlearned things about human nature that our forebearers already knew. We are actively losing scientific knowledge."
They don't even know the what a women is anymore.

Or inside job
Yep

That's still crazy that no one could tell that dude wasn't police? He was aiming the wrong way!

A Boss protector would have been on top of that watertower.

RoE, baby.
How in the hell can an obese woman who can’t handle her pistol get on the presidential security detail? DEI is ridiculous. And that’s just one of the fuck ups from the SS. Embarrassing.
And dangerous!!!
Thats a rather complicated way of describing 'a woman'.
See my definition above. I'll send it to Sotomayor since she doesn't know what a woman is.
Only a leftist freak like you would think my statement is complicated. Is that because you are a tranny groomer? You think surgically mutilating and chemically castrating children is healthcare, don’t you?
Why the fuck is that fat fuck of an agent reholstering their gun anyway? Job ain’t over.
If I had been in the crowd in front of her I’d hoped she’d holster her gun instead of pointing it into the crowd with a panicked, wild-eyed look. How could anyone trust her with a LOADED weapon?? Under pressure all the female SS agents came unhinged…

geez
We have always lived with incompetence and corruption, but now we are in an age of INCOMPETENT CORRUPTION.
And getting worse by the minute as they make increasingly panic-induced decisions!.
Oh boy. That’s a thing now.
It has always been a thing in DC. Arguably the predominant thing.
“The same goes for all other leading Right wing politicians in America. You cannot trust your personal security into the hands of a government that both hates you and is filled with incompetent fools.”
The same goes for every American citizen.
I found it ludicrous that a 5’5” woman providing a “screen” for the 6’3” Trump.
amen, rediculous

I do know women who would be extremely competent and deadly as bodyguards (unlike these pathetic SS girls who shamed themselves), but they are on the extreme end of the distribution of women's abilities in this regard.

AGREE from a woman also
Yes, the exception to ‘men are better under pressure’ may be if the situation involves a Mama and her children.
Question: Why did the secret service agents allow Trump to stand up? If this shooting was a surprise to the USSS, then how did they know it was safe to let the president stand up immediately after only one shooter had been taken out? How did the USSS know there were no more shooters? Because they had planned the whole thing and they knew only one shooter was there.
I see his point, but I would hope the surrounding snipers would see the diff between a rifle and a telescope.
WRT the Reagan video, you would have to time the reaction of the agents in milliseconds. It was pure instinct, rising above professional to the absolute best the country has to offer. Mesmerizing devotion to duty.
