Secret Service Chief: 30 minutes is “a very short period of time”

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.

Poopy Joe Can't Shoot Straight

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 the man who threaten a police officer with a firearm???

I don t know which part but part of that is not true.

You point a firearm at the police there will be consequences, the cop will not just away

unless the people in charge told the cop to stand down… Which is what they would do if there was intent to let someone shoot Trump.

too many things about that event don t make sense,

they are lying to us to hide the truth, and the truth is it was not negligence it was intentional, they wanted someone to shoot Trump, not the cop, the people in charge wanted that.

The main suspect is that Kimberly Cheatle.

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 friend or family member I would shun him permanently.

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 sincere and she feels she needs to add something to fool us that she was really shocked.

Why did she feel she needed to add, after a short pause ” OBVIOUSLY” unless she fears we can tell that was an insincere answer ???

when he asks her who is responsible she does not give a straight answer, she says ;

” What I would say is…the secret service is responsible”

why did she precede that with ” WHAT I WILL SAY IS” ???

No one talks like that unless they are about to say something not true

If your wife suspects you were with another woman and asks ; were you at your golf game or with another woman…

Do you answer WHAT I WILL SAY IS …that I was at the golf game ???

that is announcing that a lie is coming on !!!

everything about her screams LIAR

and I am sorry but she does not have an intelligent face, to me she looks low IQ.

and the lie about the slanted roof is something someone not very intelligent would come with, it is not clever AT ALL.

She is DUMB and a LIAR.

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 anything, she just wants to get out of this alive.
