This wasn't negligence or incompetence. It was intentional, an attempt to get Trump killed. Rather than shuffle the perps, firings and charges should be happening. Without severe punishment there is no deterrent.

I’ve been saying this since the day of the attempt it was so obvious …

The rot at SS is similar to the rot of the entire national government.

The rot at the SS goes way beyond management. It's the entire SS staff. The SS should be given to Kash at the FBI.

I agree. It all started going downhill when they put the Secret Service under the DHS umbrella

It could be. Hopefully, once all of Trump's nominees are confirmed, we will get more information on what exactly happened. Fingers crossed.

My New Year's resolution was to no longer assume incompetance over malfeasance. From here on out incompetance is equal to malfeasance.

I wouldn't be so sure. From what I understand it's impossible to discern who can be trusted and who can't.

Curran who was the head of the detail that didn’t clear the roof close to the podium that the shooter used has now been promoted to the head of the SS. Hard to understand. Isn’t he a part of the rot?

We’ll see, yes he was assigned to protect Trump, but let’s not forget others died that day in Butler.

It’s been corrupted since November 1963 when they pulled the SS off President Kennedy’s car to make it easier to get clear shots. It is time to take our country back.

Ten gone is minuscule. The FBI has become the Federal Bureau of insurrectionists trying to destroy all the government ‘s political opponents.

The determination to use a fence-line as a boundary for the security perimeter of a Presidential visit…while knowing that buildings and rooftops outside the perimeter were well within range of a sniper was gross - or deliberate - negligence that resulted in two woundings and a death, plus POTUS wounding.
