Assassination Aftermath
President Trump survived an assassination two Saturdays ago. This week, the head of the Secret Service answered a subpoena to testify before Congress and told them a whole bunch of I don’t knows and we don’t have that informations. She has no recordings of the comm traffic the day Trump was shot for instance, even though keeping those recordings is normal. She couldn’t say why nobody secured the building the shooter used. Couldn’t say how many shells were found on the roof. Couldn’t say anything about the drone the shooter flew over the scene. Or why the shooter was never contacted, even though the locals saw him and lost him multiple times. Or why Trump was put on stage when both the locals and the Secret Service KNEW there was a suspicious person walking around with a range finder. In short, she withheld information from Congress. At the same time, a round robin of pointing fingers is going on as the locals say the Secret Service didn’t show up for meetings and the Secret Service says the locals didn’t do what they were told. Even the Democrats were pissed with her, and she’s gone now. But it feels like the coverup is already in place, and I’m not hopeful that we will find out what went wrong the day Trump was shot. I don’t like that feeling.
