Trump Shot at Rally But OK, Secret Service Escort Trump Away

Trump was shot at a political rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. He’s OK. One person is reportedly dead.

The Wall Street Journal reports Trump Pumps Fist, Secret Service Says He Is Safe

Trump was conscious in the immediate aftermath and pumped his fist in the air several times, attempting to rally the crowd, before agents escorted him away to the motorcade. The Secret Service counter assault team immediately took the stage in heavy armor to look for the attacker.

This is a breaking story. There are not a lot of details.

One Person Reportedly Dead

Trump Press Release

Secret Service Tweet

Agent Anthony Guglielmi, Chief of Secret Service

“An incident occurred the evening of July 13 at a Trump rally in Pennsylvania. The Secret Service has implemented protective measures and the former President is safe. This is now an active Secret Service investigation and further information will be released when available.”

Wow

The Left could not get rid of Trump with Lawfare, so now this.

It will be interesting to see how the Polls react but I suspect strongly Trump.

Mish, you didn’t need to tell us that. It’s nice of you to be concerned, but the priestly press (the ones who lie) told us all about it, over and over again. They couldn’t get away with lying about this, and they knew it. They have to know what can be put over on the public, and what must be played straight.

On his podcast this morning is Denninger really that naive as to have the same conclusion as The Atlantic Monthly – incompetence (DIE specifically mentioned by Den) by secret service and cops?

A video clip played on Newsmax last night shows two secret service agents on the roof top of a building directly behind Trump’s Podium. Both are looking through their rifle scopes in the direction of the gunman and appear to be ready to fire. In the foreground we see Trump at the podium still speaking.

Then AFTER 10-15 seconds, we see Trump go down behind the podium.

This morning there is a photo of the two secret service agents on roof at that moment in The Gateway Pundit with the heading “Watch The Moment Counter-Snipers Engaged The Attempted Trump Assassin”.

Now I’m not a security expert, but this seems to me to be a catastrophic failure on the part of the secret service. Why didn’t they take down the shooter while they had him in their sights until at least 10-15 seconds AFTER he started shooting and got off 9 rounds?

See me post further below on this. The shooter was located on the side of the roof the angled upwards towards Trump. The shooter was impossible to see until he crested the ridge of the roof. He was able to get a few rounds ff before shapr shooters took him out.

The question is, why the hell weren’t the roofs of the buildings adjacent to the rally secured? SS screwed up royally into view.

During her tenure, Cheatle was assigned to the Vice Presidential Protective Division during the Obama administration.

Hard to believe she was not aware of the Biden family flagrant influence peddling as well as Hunter Biden’s other criminal activities.

In 2021, U.S. president Joe Biden awarded Cheatle a Presidential Rank Award for exceptional performance.  Congress raised the amount of the Distinguished Executive awards granted in 1999 to 35% of the executive’s annual salary.

In August 2022, Biden announced the appointment of Cheatle to be director of the United States Secret Service and she assumed office on September 17, 2022

What a staggering display of absolute incompetence by both the secret service and local law enforcement. How can you have such a controversial presidential candidate hold a rally in an area with so few buildings around and literally not have every single vantage point covered? If you’re too fat, lazy and out of shape to climb up there then at the very least monitor the area with a drone. That rooftop looks to be about 150 yards away from the podium. In an age where anyone can literally buy a rifle that is sub MOA out of the box and deliver 1.5″ groups at that distance the only reason Trump is still alive is sheer luck. Expect a lot of “conspiracy theories” to arise in the wake of this debacle.

It was incredibly savvy to get up, pump his fist and fire up the crowd. That’s going to be the lasting shot of this campaign.

Yup. In Pennsylvania the Democrats got their unregistered dolts to register as Republicans so that they could vote for Nikki Haley or anyone besides Trump in the Rep Primary, to try to keep him off the ballot. In Maine they tried to keep him off by using their Secretary of State and in Colorado they tried using a panel of judges and a ginned-up legal premise. I believe it was shot down by the Supreme Court. The Democrats are not hesitant to use every shitty, sophomoric (pulling fire alarms to stop a Congressional vote, etc) trick they can find. Not to entice you to vote for THEIR candidate, but to prevent you and others from being able to choose YOUR candidate. Think about the hubris and sociopathy involved in that strategy. That is the Democratic Party. Like the saying goes, ‘The Democrats haven’t been this mad since the Republicans took away their slaves.’

NY Times August 9, 2016:

Repeating his contention that Mrs. Clinton wanted to abolish the right to bear arms, Mr. Trump warned at a rally here that it would be “a horrible day” if Mrs. Clinton were elected and got to appoint a tiebreaking Supreme Court justice.

“If she gets to pick her judges, nothing you can do, folks,” Mr. Trump said, as the crowd began to boo. He quickly added: “Although the Second Amendment people — maybe there is, I don’t know.”

From what I can gather, the roof the shooter used had a slight pitch with an extended ridge at the crest. The shooter crawled up the side of the building (according to witnesses) and onto the side of the roof that pitched towards Trump. The SS snipers stationed on the rooftops next to Trump couldn’t see the shooter until he crested the ridge and fired a few shots. There’s a video circulating, linked below, that appears to show the SS snipers searching for something through thier scopes (Trump is speaking in the foreground), then the shots rang out from the shooter. This guy knew exactly where to go so he would have cover until he was in postion to take a shot. The 2nd link is supposedly a satellite photo of the venue grounds. The photo was marked up to show where everyone was positioned. The red buildings shown in the photo match those in the linked video.

I just watched a good portion of the press conference with the PA state police and the FBI. PA state police indicated that the SS takes the lead in these situations. SS does the initial site survey. The shooter was located on a building that was outside of the security perimeter. I agree heads should roll over this level of incompetence.

I’d also note that a reporter at the press conference asked the FBI spokesperson “…law enforcement only knew he (the shooter) was up there until shots were fired…?” the FBI spokesperson confirmed that was his understanding.

NY post has identified the shooter as Thomas Matthew Crooks of Bethel Park, PA

Why those roofs adjacent to the rally weren’t secured is a huge breach. The shooter threw up an extension ladder to get up on the roof. Truely amazing how this was allowed to happen.

This was the last thing this country needed…political violence at a time when we are already so divided. SMH….

I wrote this comment on July 1:

There is a bill in Congress that would strip Trump of his Secret Service protection if he is sentenced to prison. If it passes, and the NY judge sends him to Rikers Island, then Trump would be left all alone and probably get shanked. RFK Jr. has been denied Secret Service protection, even after a man with a fake US Marshal badge was arrested for carrying a concealed weapon at a campaign rally. The Democrats aren’t just thinking about murder, they are actively trying to encourage and facilitate it. More on this is at ensign dot substack dot com, read “The Democrats have made a plan for Trump to be killed in prison“.

Mish thought that I was crazy:

Are you in the Looney Bin?

Opps, I meant to say you are in the looney bin!

The odds of such a bill even passing is precisely 0.0%. If it did Trump would veto it.

Second, If the judge was stupid enough to sentence trump to jail, it would immediately be put on hold, the case reviewed, and thrown out.

I replied (in part):

If I’m ‘in the looney bin’ for mentioning that House Resolution 8081 exists, then Congress must be the national version of Arkham Asylum, and Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.), the former chairman of the House Jan. 6 select committee, must be the Joker, because this is an actual proposed Act of Congress.

Trump was scheduled to be sentenced on July 11, but that was delayed by the Supreme Court ruling on Presidential immunity. Two days later, Trump was hit in the ear by an assassin’s bullet. If the shooter’s aim had been two or three inches better, then Trump would be dead.

The bill only had eight co-sponsors and was never likely to pass in a House with a Republican majority. It did show that the Democrats were seriously contemplating the demise of Donald Trump. Why else would they propose removing his Secret Service protection?

Call me crazy if you like, but I think that it’s perfectly rational to point out that the guy on the rooftop with the rifle was not the only one who was gunning for Trump.

This is more small thinking. Putin wants America to crumble from within. That has been the goal since 2008 the day he was humiliated by the EU and US at a G7 conference. He has been successful on multiple fronts. In 2016 the GRU set its sights on the US. The tactics used in Europe and Ukraine are coming to the US. Covid slowed Putin down but he has returned with a vengeance since 2022. Expect more this year. Destabilization and making western democracies falter is the goal.

Turns out he’s an Antifa member.

This anger and hatred really got started back in 2016 when the controlled media turned a blind eye to Trump supporters getting drinks thrown in their faces and physically attacked. I was shocked the police did nothing, many people in Congress said nothing, Clinton said nothing and the controlled media said nothing. The last one is the most diabolical and evil as I’m concerned. The media is there for a reason to report facts, but they purposely turned a blind eye.

This doesn’t surprise me at all. Just a few days ago, Reid Hoffman told Peter Thiel that Trump should be a martyr as in dead.

Inside job. Sniper had a rooftop shot from 150 yards, and not secret service looked there? BBC reporter interviewed a guy that alerted the SS to the guy crawling up on the roof with a rifle? Trump falls to the ground BEFORE the secret service was there to cover for him? Couple of days before the Republican convention and the Democrats are in disarray. Head of the Secret Service is a DEI hire that formally worked for Pepsi? Seriously? Banana Republic. We look so bad to the rest of the world. What a joke

  1. ‘He Had a Rifle!’ Trump Rally Attendee Says He Warned Police Gunman Was Crawling on Roof. So we are to believe a man was able to get that close with a rifle… without being seen or stopped by the police or Trump’s security. And that they ignored warnings of a man with a rifle and allowed Trump to continue to speak?
  2. Multiple shots were fired in the direction of Trump. We are told that one member of the audience was killed. What happened to the other bullets that were fired?
  3. How did they get to the roof and take the guy out so quickly? If the police and security detail purposely ignore warnings, wouldn’t they take their sweet assed time trying to kill the shooter? Wouldn’t they let him unleash at least one full clip at Trump before acting?
  4. The weapon found at the scene was an AR type semi-automatic rifle that generally holds up to 30 rounds. Each pull of the trigger unleashes a round so the entire clip could be easily emptied in well under 10 seconds. Did anyone hear 30 rounds being fired? And if so did the shooter fire only two into the podium with the rest completely missing?

There were only two building clusters there. Snipers were on the roof of one building cluster. A single SS agent on *any* roof in the building cluster the sniper shot from would have easily spotted and neutralized the shooter. In fact, the two building clusters accounted for all high ground in the area, so why there wasn’t one person assigned to the building cluster the shooter chose is a complete mystery. Look at the drone images or video of the scene, and what I am describing becomes starkly obvious as a major F**k up.

I don’t think it was a f789 up… it was orchestrated.

Trump is divisive… there are plenty of clips online with people calling for him to be taken out after he got off of those fake criminal charges (that was just more WWF entertainment)…

So the security would air tight…

Yet they did not see a guy on the roof with a guy?

Even though we can see clips of bystanders shouting ‘he’s got a gun!!!’

Even though the police were told there was a guy with a guy…

Come the f789 on people… are ya’ll mentally retarded???

That all depends on whom controls the Narrative. At some point, Trump and His Team will chime in, and rightly so. The MSM doesn’t want this to turn negatively, but have no choice but to “Watch, Wait & See” and there will be a lot of “Watch, Wait& See” going on from this point forward I’m afraid to say IMHO.

Very hard to control this sort of narrative, and especially when there is a Matching Agenda, right along side of it. “Lone Wolf” perhaps, but they are typically driven by something/someone. The beginning of a pattern of behavior, of a certain ilk perhaps? Let’s hope not, as violence is Rarely the answer imo.
