The following article, The Case Against the Secret Service Gets Worse, was first published on The Black Sphere.
Suspicions were raised in many Americans when a suppose lone wolf assassin almost killed President Trump. As laypersons, even we wondered how a man could get so close to Trump and with a clear sight line.
Clearly this is an inside job. Now we get further details of the conspiracy.
#BREAKING: According to Fox News, the Secret Service was aware of a threat about 10 minutes before Trump walked on stage and still let him proceed. Additionally, the shooter was identified over an hour before the shooting as suspicious because he was seen with a rangefinder and… pic.twitter.com/33xG82USXx

The Secret Service agency dropped the ball. Thus, the agency is under fire for the glaring security lapses leading up to the attack and that occurred during the attack.
Who doesn’t secure the entire perimeter, particularly a building where the rooftop offers a clear look at the stage; a stage less than 200 yards away.
According to the Director of the Secret Service, she placed sniper teams inside the building. I’m no expert in tactics, but I don’t see how the Secret Service snipers would be effective when they can’t see the sniper perched on the very building in which they are in.
Spectators spotted the sniper almost a full two minutes before he discharged his first shot. That’s a lifetime in the business of security. Yet, Matthew Crooks managed to fire five rounds.
And supposedly, the Secret Service director increased security due to a credible assassination plot by the Iranians. Most people believe the revelation about the Iranians is meant to deflect from Crooks.
Adding even more intrigue, the parents of Crooks phoned authorities about their son on the day of his assassination attempt on Trump.

Affirmative Action hire, Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle explained that no personnel were stationed on the roof because it was sloped. That excuse has been rightly and thoroughly ridiculed. Did Cheatle think that anybody would believe that?
The location of that building alone dictated priority one scrutiny. And with the revelation that the DOJ knew of this threat against Trump over an hour in advance of Trump’s speech.
Republicans will demand answers. Because they are good at demanding answers, just not getting them.
So investigations will ensue, but nothing will get done. But Trump has been warned, and thus must take his security into his own hands.
This situation reminds me of when Trump learned that Obama had bugged his office at Trump Tower. He was warned by Admiral Rogers. A short time later Trump moved his command center, and eventually won the 2016 election.
