In an exclusive interview with ABC News, U.S. Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle confirmed that local police were present inside the building at the same time the shooter was on the roof firing at Trump. Cheatle also said that local authorities were tasked with securing that building.
“In this particular instance, we did share support for that particular site and that the Secret Service was responsible for the inner perimeter. And then we sought assistance from our local counterparts for the outer perimeter,” Cheatle said.
“The buck stops with me,” she said. “I am the director of the Secret Service, and I need to make sure that we are performing a review and that we are giving resources to our personnel as necessary.”
A VERY SHORT PERIOD OF TIME
Cheatle responded to reports that the suspect was seen and identified as potentially suspicious before he opened fire, saying that “a very short period of time” passed between then and the shooting, reports ABC News.
“I don’t have all the details yet, but it was a very short period of time,” she said. “Seeking that person out, finding them, identifying them, and eventually neutralizing them took place in a very short period of time, and it makes it very difficult.”
Are we supposed to take that comment seriously? It was over 30 minutes from the first sighting [when the killer Thomas Crooks was in the parking lot] and 26 minutes from the second sighting [when he was on the roof].
She’s very coy, not explaining the “very short period of time” was over 30 minutes.
The Fire Department in New York responds in three minutes. You have a presidential candidate and hundreds of rallygoers, and you don’t do anything for over 30 minutes? No, it’s not a very short period of time.
She also claimed the agents were in the building instead of on the roof because the roof was slanted. Why weren’t they looking for the suspicious man?
Reportedly, they were indoors because it was hot. Snipers inside the building saw the killer! What did they do about it?
This is nuts.
Thirty minutes is a long time, if you spend it in the mirror poofing your hair. It is obvious that the Trump assassination attempt was an inside job. Our “government” attempted to kill Trump just like “it” killed John Kennedy. Biden may even have been involved. You can’t put it past the old rat and his group.
She is a criminal conspirator in the attempted murder of Trump. There is no aspect of her performance or statements that is credible. The only way to handle her is scorched earth – fired with cause, loss of benefits, criminal investigation.
Remember! it is only one branch of the Secret Service that is detailed to presidential protection. She has other parts to manage, too! If she cannot manage the job, she should resign or be fired!
He task is to do the job, not formulate excuses! The excuses are simply evidence of incompetence.
Something else seems to be a lie the man in the ABC video who says an officer talked to the shooter, then the shooter pointed his rifle at the cop and the cop kind of fell down the ladder or something like that if that were true would not the cop go back on the roof with reinforcement and arrest… Read more »
That cop had the shooter in a vulnerable position. The shooter was fully exposed standing up there. The cop could peer above the wall with his gun drawn. For the cop to admit his cowardly act, he must be telling the truth. He is a disgrace. He needs to have his badge pulled and be fired. If I were a… Read more »
The ABC video is very short but she is OBVIOUSLY LYING !!! her facial expression, her body language the woman is LYING !!! like when he asks what was her reaction, she does not just say shock, she says says it in a very cold unconvincing tone then pauses then add OBVIOUSLY as if she knows she does not sound… Read more »
Those intangibles you describe are consistent with the tangibles of the murder plot. Both indicate deception. Law enforcement interviewers are trained to evaluate both. They would note the deception in behavior. She has been coached by lawyers and other plotters. Naturally, she appears on a far left government/intel controlled network. She has no future, no one will hire her for… Read more »
Her answers dont make sense because she is panicking as it is becoming very clear the whole thing was intentional, it was not incompetence. The whole world can see she is an accomplice in the assassination attempt and she is now saying anything even if it makes no sense as she is desperately trying to send us on the wrong… Read more »
It’s a firm assumption that she is one of the murder plotters. Her responses are so bad, that I suspect she is doing an incompetent act, with the intention that she is to take blame due to inability, to obscure the obvious murder plot. If they will murder Trump, they will go far to deceive. DIE hires are usually incapable,… Read more »
