LEAK: Secret Service Agents Assigned to Trump Butler Rally Never Directed Local Police to Guard Roof Used by Thomas Crooks

Another ‘coincidental’ Secret Service failure that led to the attempted assassination of President Trump.

New details about the so-called security breakdown that led to an assassination attempt against President Trump during his Butler, Pennsylvania in July have been leaked to the Washington Post.

According to WaPo, Secret Service agents never directed local police to secure the roof that would-be assassin Thomas Crooks used to take 8 shots at Trump and rallygoers.

Would-be assassin Thomas Crooks was able to climb on top of a roof next to Trump’s Butler, Pennsylvania rally and put Trump in his scope.

A bullet grazed President Trump’s ear during his Pennsylvania rally. One rallygoer was fatally struck in the head. Two other rally attendees were wounded, one critically.

Democrat Senator Blumenthal: Americans Will Be “Shocked” at Details of Trump Assassination Report

Democrat Senator Richard Blumenthal said Americans will be “shocked” by the details of a new report about the attempted assassination of Donald Trump.

Blumenthal made the comments after Senate members met with acting USSS Director Ronald Rowe for a closed-door briefing.

“I think the American people are gonna be shocked, astonished, and appalled by what we will report to them about the failures by the Secret Service in this assassination attempt of a former president,” said Blumenthal.

“But I think they also ought to be appalled and astonished by the failure of the Department of Homeland Security to be more forthcoming, to be as candid and frank as it should be to them in terms of providing information,” the Senator added.

The Intercept Sues to Release 911 Recordings From Trump Rally Shooting

The Intercept filed a lawsuit on Monday to force county officials in Pennsylvania to release 911 recordings from the July rally in which former President Donald Trump was injured in an apparent assassination attempt. Despite the public’s “compelling” interest in these materials, Butler County refuses to hand them over without a court order.

Almost two months after the July 13 shooting, questions remain about the timeline of law enforcement officials’ response and coordination, including when rally attendees first alerted them to the gunman climbing onto a nearby roof. Police from Butler Township released body camera footage showing their frantic real-time response from multiple perspectives.

But Butler County insists that releasing the 911 calls might jeopardize investigations into what happened.

“Simply put, there is no accountability without public access,” said Melissa Bevan Melewsky, media law counsel for the Pennsylvania NewsMedia Association. “The county should reverse its denial so that the nation has a better understanding of what happened and can work to prevent similar attacks in the future.”

Never-Seen-Before Video Shows the Moments After JFK Assassination

A never-seen-before video of the moments after President John F. Kennedy’s assassination in Dallas, Texas, in 1963 has emerged.

The newly merged video shows President Kennedy’s motorcade speeding down a Dallas freeway heading towards the hospital, where Kennedy was later pronounced dead.

Stephen Fagin, the curator at The Sixth Floor Museum at Dealey Plaza, stated, “These images, these films and photographs, a lot of times, they are still out there. They are still being discovered or rediscovered in attics or garages.”

People Magazine reported the footage was filmed by Dale Carpenter Sr., a Dallas truck driver who filmed the tragedy near the Stemmons Freeway.

James Gates, the grandson of Carpenter, who inherited the video after his grandfather passed away, shared, “The film was stored in a plastic Dean Foods milk crate and had been in my closet for several years before I decided to put it in a fire safe.”

The 8mm home film is now set to be auctioned in Boston at the end of September.

WHOA: Jesse Watters and Josh Hawley Reveal More SHOCKING Trump Shooting Facts From Whistleblowers

It is sometimes impossible to believe that we are just under two months removed from the attempted assassination of Donald Trump — a former President and the Republican nominee to become the President again this year — and we have almost no meaningful information about the incident. 

It is equally impossible to believe that there has been nearly no accountability for this epic security failure. Yes, former Secret Service Director Kim Cheatle resigned, but she wasn’t fired by Joe Biden or Alejandro Mayorkas. The only other accountability there has been is that five agents were placed on leave. Not fired. Placed on leave. With pay. 

What is not at all impossible to believe is that the media has completely memory-holed the assassination attempt. They simply do not talk about it. Why not? Because discussion of that historic event could help Trump in the election. The media, in their TDS-induced stupor, simply cannot have that. 

Fortunately for America, there are still brave people within the Secret Service (not you, Ronald Rowe) who have come forward to shed light on the massive security cock-up on July 13. Thanks to Senator Josh Hawley sharing the testimony of those whistleblowers, we have learned more about the attempt on Trump’s life that we never would have otherwise known.

It Was a Setup… REVEALED: Most Agents Protecting Trump During Attempted Assassination Were Homeland Security Personnel Who Received Only a ‘2-Hour Online Webinar’ Beforehand

On July 13, 2024, President Trump was shot in the ear during a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. The attempted assassin, Thomas Crooks, was seen staking out the area before the assassination attempt. Crooks somehow was able to carry a gun up on the roof, jump from roof to roof on two buildings, walk around on top of the roof, and then crawl up the metal roof before he started firing at President Trump.

Several Trump supporters were standing nearby screaming at police to take action, who did nothing before Crooks started firing off eight shots at the former president.

Since that day there are still no answers on how Crooks was able to fire off several shots at Trump during a rally and why President Trump was allowed on the stage.

It is now known that former Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle and the agency denied repeated requests from worried agents on Trump’s detail for more security for the former president. It was denied.

On Tuesday, Senator Josh Hawley posted information from a whistleblower that is truly shocking. According to the whistleblower, the Homeland Security personnel who were assigned to Trump’s rally in Butler, Pennsylvania received only a “two-hour online webinar” for their training before protecting President Trump.

Senator Hawley included this in his letter:

“Whistleblower allegations to my office report that the only training received by many HSI agents reassigned to work protective details is a single two-hour webinar on Microsoft Teams featuring pre-recorded videos… These videos were not substantive and their playback was frequently riddled with technical mishaps leaving the HSI agents ill-prepared for the protective mission to which they were newly assigned.”

So DHS refused the Trump campaign requests for extra agents and then the majority of agents who were assigned to the Butler rally received only a ‘two-hour online webinar’ for their training.

It was a setup.

This is a shocking development.

“I Was Astonished at the Lack of Numbers Protecting President Trump” – Devin Nunes Insinuates Democrats Were Purposely Trying to Get Trump Killed

Former Congressman and CEO of TRUTH Social, Devin Nunes, spoke to the X22 Report this week. Nunes discussed the 2024 election, the rigged elections, and the attempted assassination of President Trump.

Nunes told X22 Report that he had noticed for months that he was “astonished” that there was not enough Secret Service agents assigned to President Trump’s rallies. The campaign had requested more manpower for months. But Joe Biden refused the requests for some reason.

Nunes implies that Democrats (and deep state officials) were purposely attempting to get Trump killed.

It sure looks that way.

X22 Report: Do you think we’re going to see some October surprises? Do you think they’re either on the side of the Democrats or with Trump and his party? Do you think there are any surprises that are going to come out in October? Normally, we get that.

Devin Nunes: Look, we know now there’s nothing that they won’t do. I mean, look, we watched an attempted assassination attempt. I knew from just my time with the President and speaking to the Secret Service, many who I’ve known for a long time, and they know my background in intelligence, I was just astonished by the lack of numbers that were protecting President Trump.

And I think many of the Secret Service guys that I spoke to knew that also. And this wasn’t a couple of months ago. This goes back a year ago to when I was having these discussions. And I told President Trump numerous times that he’s got be very careful here because a lot of bad actors out there that don’t want to see him in office.

And as you know, just to take that shot to the side of the head, just by, I don’t know, quarter inch, and this is a changed world.

Look, there’s nothing they won’t try. I guess, Dave, is nothing they won’t do, but they are hampered right now because they have two candidates in Kamala, Kumala, however the hell you say her name, and Walz.

FBI Withholds Physical Evidence in Update on Trump Attempted Assassination Investigation

Forty-five days after the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has released a litany of investigative information. While any nibble goes a long way, the information provided has shortcomings insomuch as the FBI still is not being specific about the all-important physical evidence.

Special Agent in charge of the FBI Pittsburgh Field Office, Kevin Rojek, provided remarks during a media call that simply raise more questions. For example, Rojek explains that the “FBI is now in possession of the subject’s autopsy and toxicology reports from the coroner’s office.” Great. When did the FBI obtain the autopsy and toxicology reports from the coroner? Is Rojek referring to the Butler County Coroner or the Allegheny County Medical Examiner? People often confuse these two entities. Specificity would be helpful. It matters.

Rojek also says that the “autopsy report indicated the subject was pronounced deceased at 6:25p.m. on July 13, 2024, as a result of a single gunshot wound to the head.” This reads just like the Butler County Coroner’s death certificate, not the ME’s autopsy. If this is from the coroner and not the ME, then there are serious problems. The coroner’s report reads “an inquisition taken at 615 Whitestown Road on the 13th day of July…” Nope. The coroner went to the crime scene at midnight on the 13th and was rebuffed and told to return later. The coroner returned at 6 a.m. on the 14th to complete the death investigation. Assuming the FBI told the coroner to return later, then the death investigation report is inaccurate and should be corrected, and Agent Rojek should have explained why the coroner was sent away at midnight.

Next. Agent Rojek explains that “all reviewable evidence collected from the AGR roof and from the Subject’s body are consistent with the round fired by the Secret Service Sniper.” It is interesting that the FBI would use the word “consistent.” What the public needs to know is whether a projectile was recovered from the subject’s body and was there a rifling match between the projectile and the barrel of a sniper’s weapon? Providing the ballistics report would be helpful. Further, having a look see at the autopsy would also provide important information about which direction the projectile removed from the subject traveled. Specificity.

FBI Releases Details of Trump Shooter’s Internet Search History, Photos of Gun, Backpack, Explosives

The FBI has provided new insights into the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump, shedding light on the actions and planning of the would-be assassin, Thomas Crooks.

USA Today reported that the FBI revealed these details in a recent conference call briefing, marking a significant development in the ongoing investigation.

Special Agent Kevin Rojek, in charge of the FBI’s Pittsburgh field office, explained that an analysis of Crooks’ online search history showed “detailed attack planning” before the Butler, Pennsylvania rally where Trump was shot. 

Despite this insight into Crooks’ activities, Rojek stated that a clear motive remains elusive. 

“The FBI’s analysis into Crooks’ activities provided valuable insight into his mindset, but not a definitive motive,” Rojek noted.

The US Is Being Accused of Three Coups

The U.S. has a long legacy of coups. During the Cold War, the U.S. participated in no less than sixty-four covert coups. They did not end when the Cold War ended. Since then, the U.S. has carried out or facilitated several coups, including in Haiti, Venezuela, Brazil, Honduras, Paraguay, Bolivia, Egypt and Ukraine.

Recently, the U.S. has been accused of participation in three more coups. The degree of evidence and clarity varies, and, unlike in the above cases, these cases are not yet closed.

Haiti has a horrible history of American interference and coups. The latest confusing chapter reads like a convoluted novel. The United States, who at first seemed to be backing the enormously unpopular and increasingly authoritarian President of Haiti, Jovenal Moïse, has now been accused of involvement in his assassination.

Moïse was assassinated in 2021 in a confusing plot by men armed with high-caliber weapons who claimed to be with the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration, a claim the U.S. State Department says is “absolutely false.”

But two of the plotters of the assassination now seem to have been revealed as DEA informants and a third as an informant for the FBI.
