The swamp’s incompetence has struck again, and this time it nearly cost us a former president. While the left-wing media continues to downplay the gravity of the situation, we’re here to give you the unvarnished truth about the shocking security failures that led to the attempted assassination of Donald Trump. Buckle up, patriots, because this story of bureaucratic bungling and ignored warnings will make your blood boil.
The Assassination Attempt
On July 13, 2024, during a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, former President Donald Trump became the target of the most serious assassination attempt since President Ronald Reagan was shot in 1981. The shooter, Thomas Matthew Crooks, managed to get within 135 meters of Trump’s stage before opening fire. The incident resulted in Trump being wounded, a former Pennsylvania fire chief killed, and two other attendees injured.
“I would like to start by extending my deepest condolences to the family and friends of Corey Comperatore, who was killed during the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump’s life in Butler, Pennsylvania, Saturday, as well as those who were injured during this senseless act of violence.” – Kimberly Cheatle
Missed Warnings and Security Lapses
Multiple warnings about a suspicious person were reportedly missed by the Secret Service in the lead-up to the attack. A whistleblower has come forward with information about security lapses and alleged retaliation against Secret Service personnel who raised concerns prior to the incident.

Perhaps most alarming is the revelation that the shooting location had been identified as a vulnerability prior to the event. This raises serious questions about the competence and preparedness of those tasked with protecting our nation’s leaders.
Fallout and Investigations
In the wake of this catastrophic failure, Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle resigned, stating, “I take full responsibility for the security lapse.” President Biden has ordered an independent review of the incident, and multiple investigations and reviews are being conducted by various agencies and committees.

The Secret Service’s reputation has been severely damaged by this incident, with even Democrat lawmakers expressing concern. Rep. Ro Khanna stated, “The one thing we have to have in this country are agencies that transcend politics and have the confidence of independents, Democrats, Republicans, progressives and conservatives.”
“The Secret Service’s solemn mission is to protect our nation’s leaders. On July 13th, we failed,” – Kimberly Cheatle
As patriotic conservatives, we must demand accountability and a thorough overhaul of the Secret Service to ensure that such a catastrophic failure never happens again. The safety of our leaders, regardless of party affiliation, is paramount to the functioning of our democracy.
