Whistleblower Says Security Detail at Trump Rally Comprised of ‘Unprepared and Inexperienced’...

I have been saying for a long time these people on the far out radical left , do not, & cannot comprise any sort of intelligence, regarding the intensive job performance of PREIDENTIAL SECURITTY. What I have said in the past, & will repeat "These radical left crazies cannot run a lemonade stand PERIOD. I think seriously about our children playing a game in the back yard, & this is the mentality of the radicals IN THE demonic PARTY! i AM NOT REFERING TO MY CHILDREN AS ANYTHING ELSE THAN INNOCENT CHILDREN PLAYING A GAME, & HAVING FUN! We do realize these crazy folks are NOT children!

Wait 'Til John Wilkes Booth Hears About This.

SFC (Join to see) - It must have been a very boring military career where you never had more missions than the number of "best" people available.

I am certainly not defending that charlie foxtrot, but no, the Secret Service does not and cannot, assign their "best" people to each and every protection detail. They are however supposed to assign competent people to every protection detail and especially we would expect the leader of each detail to be highly qualified.

MSG Thomas Currie - I never said "where you never had more missions than the number of "best" people available.". I said I wouldn't send soldiers on a mission without the proper training and supervision. That's a big difference. While it would be nice to have the "best" people available, the day is carried by properly trained people. Are you going to send out Intelligence soldiers to blow up a bridge? They would probably just unintentionally kill themselves. This is the kind of stuff I'm talking about.

MSG Thomas Currie - I never assigned a Marine leadership of a detail if he did not have my full faith and confidence that he had the wit and wisdom to formulate a good plan, to lead his Marines [even his raw inexperienced Marines] in the execution of that plan and the attention to detail required to ensure that he was watching. What gets inspected well gets done well.

Somebody drew up the security plan for that event.
_Did that somebody understand the detail had insufficient manpower for the venue?
_Did that somebody notify their chain of command that they had insufficient manpower, request more manpower or request surveillance assets to mitigate security gaps?
_Did that somebody share concerns with state, county and local law enforcement to close or mitigate security gaps?

Maj John Bell All very good questions.

Maj John Bell - That's the point. The public is talking about the clumsiness and confusion among the DHS agents that were used to fill out the detail (admittedly they are easy to criticize in the videos) but there isn't enough emphasis being put on the either incompetence or deliberate indifference at the upper layers. Sure people are calling for Cheatle to resign or be fired, but the one that I want to see in front of a Congressional panel is the agent in charge of that protection detail and the agent who did the advance visit, planning, and coordination. Those should have been experienced professional career Secret Service agents, there is absolutely no excuse for incompetence at that layer unless the "incompetence" was deliberate.

MSG Thomas Currie - We have to go through Director Kimberly Cheatle for find out who the supervisory agents were who were in charge of advanced planning and in charge of the detail on the day of the assassination attempt. Actually, it was very similar to Reagan’s assassination attempt; The failure in Reagan’s assassination attempt: “The Secret Service had extensively screened those attending the president's speech, but greatly erred by allowing an unscreened group to stand within 15 ft (4.5 m) of him, behind a rope line.”

It would have been good if Cheatle fired the people in charge as soon as possible herself and then resigned. The only reason I could see for the hesitation is if politics swayed the judgement of the professionals in charge. If it did then we would have a whole new can or worms. To me that would make no difference in the outcome, if professionals let “their” orders be swayed by politics they need to be fired immediately. If they were just that incompetent, they still need to be fired immediately. MHO
