If you have been reading our reports regarding the assassination attempt against Donald Trump, my premise has been that someone calling the shots is preventing Trump from being properly protected.
A top agent in Pittsburgh just came forward, solidifying that theory even more.
Talking Points…
- Agent confirms being kept in the dark
- Trump agents not trained properly
- Analysis
I have stated many times that I do not believe the theories that our government ordered a hit against Donald Trump. However, I firmly believe that some of the people calling the shots in the agency had no problem allowing the assassination attempt to play out once they were aware of the threat. There were just too many security breakdowns on what should have been automatic calls for that not to be the case.
This is my theory, and I have not hidden the fact it is only my theory, but the evidence appears to be stacking up in my favor. For example, an agent just came forward that is based out of Pittsburgh. That agent has now come forward to say that he was kept in the dark about the threat against Trump at the rally. The Secret Service special agent in charge (SAIC) of the Pittsburgh field office stated that the office was not made aware of any credible threats until they saw the report on TV.
This week, a handwritten note was published on Fox News that showed the agent questioning why the office had been kept in the dark. The note stated:
"Why am I hearing that there were threats to the site on TV.
"How can the SAIC of our [field office] not know about any threats and why did they feel that only one part of [Special Operations Divisions] was sufficient to cover it instead of the entire package."
The site agent also testified before the committee, again expressing concern that the office was not informed of threats before the rally, which would have surely changed the approach to how to protect Trump. The agent told the committee:
"As a Site Agent or Lead [Advance] Agent assigned, you should have any intelligence or any information pertaining to an active threat to a particular protected.
"It shocked me, like just being out there. They're planning to have a protectee with 15-20,000 people in an outdoor event, when there's an active threat for the drone attack. That was definitely one thing that obviously raised my concerns, and I know everyone's concerns."
As if that report was not enough, another report surfaced this week about one of the agents who was flying the drones on Trump's protection detail. According to that report, the agents only had an hour of training on operating the drone, and that was not even formal training. The agent was apparently struggling to manage the drone, having called a toll-free number for tech support to operate the device. The report hinted at this issue as well stating:
"Multiple foreseeable and preventable planning and operational failures by USSS contributed to [Thomas] Crooks' ability to carry out the assassination attempt of former President Trump on July 13.
"These included unclear roles and responsibilities, insufficient coordination with state and local law enforcement, the lack of effective communications, and inoperable C-UAS systems, among many others."
U.S. Secret Service Chief of Communications Anthony Guglielmi has been turned into a spin artist over the last month, trying to keep face for the agency. In part, he responded to the reports, stating:
"We have reviewed the interim report on the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump. The weight of our mission is not lost on us and in this hyperdynamic threat environment, the U.S. Secret Service cannot fail.
"Many of the insights gained from the Senate report align with the findings from our mission assurance review and are essential to ensuring that what happened on July 13 never happens again."
After reading the preliminary report, I have never been more confident that my theory is pointed in the right direction. Accidents and mistakes happen, but not this many at this level. Keep in mind that this is not your "normal" presidential candidate being protected. This is a former president and someone that you know is despised on the left, so there are always going to be possible threats when he is out in public. I stand by my theory that someone at the top of the food chain wanted to see Trump killed, and they allowed these scenarios to play out as much as possible without agency interference. I dare anyone to prove me wrong.
