Why now? Doesn’t pass the smell test.
Would be interested in Bongino’s reaction, but he is off this week apparently.

“If the IC wanted to control information, perhaps an operative wearing the mask of a “whistleblower” would be a good vector for narrative engineering. Nah, silly me, this is unlikely, right. Right?”

Eric Ciaramella, says you might have a point Sundance.

“Who?”
“Top Men…”

You have to work very hard to attain the level of incompetence the Secret Service displayed.

That level of effort is intentional.

Washing their hands and placing blame elsewhere.

Lt Col. Tony Shaffer: Trump Assassination Update +

Shaffer is interviewed by Judge Napolitano. Basically, Shaffer said that this was a botched assassination attempt on President Trump and that the photos and videos of the young shooter that are surfacing afterwards are what “the people responsible for the attempt” want us to see!!!

This video is brutal and blends precisely with Sundance’s analysis of the “Whistleblower” coming forward now, ie, a deliberately planted distraction!

All relative facts were known roughly within the first 72 hours,
Maquis’ summation was done after a week or so (correct me if i am wrong) and remains as the most likely scenario, imo.
Everything since has been cleanup
(and disinfectant for the collective involuntary bowel movement that occurred when the Ultimate Author provided a rewrite of the script)

“According to Senator Josh Hawley a “whistleblower” is sharing how DHS officers were assigned to become Secret Service Agents for President Trump…. and that’s why mistakes were made.”

I guess we are just not supposed to ask how these mistakes can be made even after they knew of the Iranian threat.

Think about it. They supposedly have a credible threat of assassination to President Trump from Iranians, yet the Secret Service decides to have mostly HSI agents take a 2 hour webinar on protective details, then send them to Butler, PA.

And they want us to believe they are not nefarious, just incompetent.

I am really starting to viscerally hate the RepubliCANTS.

There was only one mistake made. . . “They” missed!

No doubt Biden was in on it.

Absolutely, spot on! “Trust, but verify”, Reagan once said of the Soviets.

No matter how favorable, hopeful, or apparently damaging some new “release” of information, or discovery, without validation, it’s just noise. It could be the real thing, or it could be obfuscation. The best operating environment for the IC is not citizens believing the Republicans, the Democrats, the Maga conservatives, and so forth. The most favorable environment is total CHAOS! No one knows who’s truthful, who’s lying, which facts are verifiable, and which are wisps of smoke that can never be proven. No one can trust anyone. Then the IC has free operational environment. “Truth” can be anything that they chose to promote, anything that seems plausible in sorting out the chaos.

Let me relay this to election integrity (i.e. “segue”, or “major digression”). I become exceedingly frustrated about “machines” versus “paper ballots”. That’s misdirection, similar to what Sundance believes the IC is doing about the Trump assignation plot.

What is required to guarantee election integrity, via computer, paper ballots, or Egyptian hieroglyphs written upon stone tablets, as Navarro continually says, “it’s about the canvas”. The system design rules for election management and integrity are the same as the system design rules as for banking systems, money handling, inventory, or similar accountability systems. First, is the system DESIGNED to be auditable? Every, single system design that I’ve been involved with over 40 years of IT work, including election systems, banking, finance, inventory, and similar systems, had a separate, verifiable audit trail. (We built entire audit trail subsystems!) EVERY TRANSACTION of the system could essentially be recreated, over and over again. Even if it involved cash, which may have been absconded with, missing inventory, or perhaps missing ballots, the audit will show those exceptions, and the final disposition of accountable item. (There were no “Oops, it’s missing, and we don’t have a clue as to why” results.)

The problem with the election “machines”, was really a problem with their system design. None of the systems marketed today have an adequate audit trail. They are not DESIGNED UP FRONT as accountability systems, just count collection operations. None of them can do more than recreate the scanning event, which will claim “100% verification” even if the ballots were fake, preprinted, scanned multiple times, or even missing altogether. They don’t even preserve the system configuration parameters set at the time of the election, which can corrupt the count, and therefore, the election result. They don’t track the author of these changes. In short, EVERY MACHINE ELECTION SYSTEM WAS DESIGNED TO ENABLE FRAUD, AND COUNT CONTROL BY ELECTION AUTHORITIES, while allowing the perps to remain transparent.

So, when folks (including those of genuine good will) start harping on “no machines” for elections, I’m sorry, but they’re wrong. I was (once) a Navy Supply Corps officer, and financial and inventory audits – ACCOUNTABILITY, were “job #1”. I could maintain better audits and inventories using computers, because I could quickly and repeatedly reproduce the audit. However, I could also track every part or dollar from system input to change to output, and the identity of the actors involved. Every part of that “automated” process, however, would first be performed and tested “by hand”. Each such manual audit was time consuming. However, after that, I could run the same audit for 1% of the total count, 5%, 10%, 20%, as necessary based on the results of the first audit. (Good results from a spot audit of 1% makes it every unlikely that there’s a larger problem. If the 1% audit fails, do the 5% audit, and so forth, until a clear picture of the problem is produced.)

Bottom line: Forget election “machine” problems. Look for ELECTION SYSTEM problems, whether manual or automated. The Democrats stole the 2020 election (and others!) the good ol’ fashioned way. (1) They striped out all the normal tools of audits. (2) They made it impossible to produce an accurate election caucus, i.e. from total counts to batch counts to Voter Registration, to the Voter’s residence to the Voter. Then (3) as the cherry on top, the CRIMINALIZED anyone who attempted to audit their fraud, and destroyed evidence, usually under color of authority.

The Democrats have continuously for 50+ years (maybe 150?) worked on their “voter fraud system design”, working to ensure controllable, fraudulent elections, a.k.a. their “selections”. Republicans were going along for the ride, (a) either so that they were able to ensure their selected RINO’s were elected, too, or (b) so that they could get their share of the graft (re: Biden’s got his 10% his way, i.e. the GOP-e got theirs, in other ways). No one in elected office in my (very long) lifetime has championed election security and integrity, as more than a brief talking point. Now, why is that?

It was a sanctioned hit by the CIA, can we all stop pretending?

The Government has been playing the FBI’s tried and true “we were morons who got duped” card since the afternoon of the g o v e r n m e n t s a n c t i o n e d h i t.

Have they named names and released emails and texts (unredacted) from the Pittsburgh field office, yet? lol I bet there’s a shitload of busted iPhones in the rubbish over there.

Remember the 51 “intelligence community” liars?

This line about DHS filling the gap has been around for a good while. I think it was floated to obscure the fact that USSS was not covering Trump rallies.

With regard to the Hawley interview, if taken at face value, then the question becomes WHY did the powers that be CHOOSE to send untrained DHS to protect Trump. The obvious answer of this entire scenario being purposeful still remains.

With regard to vetting and the viability of some whistleblowers, I will once again bring up questions that I had regarding one of our more famous ones: Edward Snowden. At the time there were rumblings that Snowden, previously employed by the CIA, had purposefully been sent over to the NSA as a CIA operative. The issue was, due to IC competition between the two entities, the CIA wanted the NSA to be exposed and reduced in power. Snowden then, as a whistleblower, exposed the NSA. And thereafter fled the US to avoid repercussions. Strangely, Snowden was able to FREELY pass through a number of airports, domestic and international, unscathed, and able to avoid the (alleged) ‘net’ that had been put out to catch him. Just as strangely, Glenn Greenwald was able to easily find his whereabouts and interview him in Hong Kong. Greenwald was able to ‘find’ Snowden, but US intelligence could not. The question remains, at least for me, was Snowden actually a legitimate ‘whistleblower’ or was he essentially a CIA plant in the NSA. Interesting thought.

Let’s see, we have whistle blowers that never blow when its truly helpful to a congress who is basically useless for anything but information that is always too late for prevention.

The whistleblower account verifies three things I observed from that day: one “agent” ducking for cover instead of rushing to shield and protect; a second later can be heard on mic saying: “What are we doing”; and third, the agent who has difficulty holstering her weapon. I think it passes the smell test and Bongino has already verified most of this information.

just more excuses in my opinion

A lot doesn’t pass the smell test . So the shooting range is used by Crooks and the Department of Homeland Security . Pretty obvious question no one has seemed to ask : were any of the DHS personnel working the Trump venue at the shooting range at the same time as Crooks ? The answer : probable .

Another answer to the claim of “incompetence” is this: How the hell can you make someone “COMPETENT” in maintaining security over a prominent person under threat in the manner described by the “whistleblower?” The story about the ONE WEBINAR being expected to provide ample exposure to people who have NEVER BEEN ON A PROTECTIVE DETAIL is really not very credible.

Incompetence has been used for decades in this manner, but when the powers that be need for us to defer to the “expertise” of these hopeless incompetents (by the government’s own narratives) they will constantly hammer about their “expertise” and claim any other person’s thoughts about the subject are just “MISINFORMATION” and should be censored in favor of the claims of the HOPELESSLY INCOMPETENT of their previous narratives.

So far all congress has achieved is the director resigning so the person in charge of the killing field, her assistant to becomes director. What a promotion for a job tried anyway. Biden must be proud.

If this is all true, then there was still an obligation to inform the Trump Campaign that they were short on real secret service agents and assigning “mall cops” to protect President Trump; and perhaps the campaign should consider hiring their own security.

But of course “incompetence”.

Thank you Sundance, for putting light on what is right in front of us. The Kabuki theatre. With your preface the play script on Faux Newz seems shallow and fake. So boiled down, so condescending, so void of details.

I’m disappointed that it is Josh Hawley. Is he one of the Uniparty? I thought he might be one of us.

“Here ya go, little spoon fed gullible U.S. citizen. Eat this spoon full of pureed carrots. Zoo-o-om, Zo-o-o-om! They’re good for you. Make you strong!”

The content in this spoon fed bite is more cartoonish than Bugs Bunny or Road Runner and the Coyote:

“Well, wouldja look at that!? Just Look at that!! No wonder your only representative candidate for the leader of the free world almost got shot. We used substitute people and they were trained with a video that was messed up. I know you might think your very good government did something vewy vewy bad –but don’t you worry — it was just a mistake. Oopse!! Sometimes we make mistakes boys and girls. And yes, it was a mistake on someone very important to you, so we are vewy verwy upset and we’re going to get to the bottom of this and scold these people so hard that they will feel ashamed of themselves!!”

Thanks Sundance. I saw the amateur acting skills of Senator Hawley. He did a good job acting vewy angwy and concerned. It makes me feel so much better and protected because he is so vewy concerned. /s

I don’t know who we can trust any more.

inside job with the cover of incompetency…what Goobermint does best…TEAR IT ALL DOWN, SALT THE EARTH THAT DC IS BUILT ON!

Is all of this distraction about incompetence on the part of the USSS designed to keep anyone from examining the FACT that there were at least two shooters? The first three shots were the same trajectory. The others were a different trajectory. According the the sound recording and analysis, the first three shots were evenly spaced. Calm, cool, professional. Shot from inside a building, no echo. Like a professional would do it. Those were followed by several very quick shots, from a different gun. Too fast, undisciplined, sporadic, killing and wounding members of the gallery. Then, the counter-sniper’s shot. Another different gun. The patsy is dead. Dead men vote, but, they don’t talk.

Yessssssss! Once one has seen the machinations, it’s terribly hard to not see them everywhere. With that being said, I’m amazed at those that understand what happened previously, yet still say, “That can’t happen here” or “They wouldn’t do that” when the next political theater show begins! I usually walk away pondering the fate of our beloved Republic. Thank you CTH for being the voices of reason!

The next two months will be a very dangerous time for President Trump. My morning prayer remains that this imperfect man is under the protection of G od’s hand and perfect will. Our country, our culture, and our way of life is at stake in this election.

Limited Hangout….

The only new news here is the video training.bit. everything else has been known since week 1 or 2. We knew it was mostly HSI almost from the beginning.

There were only 3 USSS there that day.

This was a plot to kill President Trump with a “mistakes were made” defense. We know it was planned by the government because of the press attendance and the high speed camera set to capture the moment. Everything else is smoke and mirrors. God intervened.

This would never have happened if Trump’s private protection team had been there instead.

The similarities to the JFK assassination are unmistakable. Let’s start from there and stop all this other nonsense.

If DHS officers were assigned to substitute for Secret Service Agents to protect President Trump we have bigger problems. Someone in the Trump campaign permitted this to happen. That person needs to be exposed. That issue reeks of inside complicity.

And we all know Josh Hawley ain’t straight

The more that is uncovered in this “investigation”the worse it looks for the Secret Service..

I get it. It’s akin to Hunter Biden’s Guilty plea to Fed Tax case.

Shuts a lot of doors into questions about millions from foreign countries, drugs, fraud – & the real meat & potatoes.

Where has he been. We knew all this three weeks or so ago. Nothing new in this.

Reg Hawley: I don’t interpret incompetence from this segment with Hawley. I see planned acts of putting unqualified people to protect a former POTUS, if what whistleblower said is true.

Hawley’s exasperation didn’t seem like he had decided the attempted assassination was incompetence IMO.

As many of us here have been saying since Day 1, this stinks to high Heaven and most people, including the few conservatives who still are being allowed by Elon Musk’s team to post on X, believe this to be an inside job to benefit the Biden/Harris administration. Hiding behind the mask of “Incomprehensible Incompetence” is total BS. In a Just world, with legitimate LE, all those responsible for the decisions made having to do with the security for President Trump that day in Butler PA should be placed under arrest and charged with Criminal Negligence at the bare minimum, and Treason and conspiracy to commit murder as well, depending on the internal communications they are trying to hide, if there is a serious will to prevent such future occurrences in the political landscape in our country. In the past Treason was taken very seriously here, and those found guilty of such faced the ultimate price. There was a reason for this. It was to prevent our country from being destroyed by The Enemy Within.

Some observe that the zeitgeist of the US is warping with rising endemic incompetence multiplied by overcomplicated faulty tech.

A predictable outcome of decades of enforced identity class “equity”, which prevents truthful illumination of poor outcomes as linked to incompetence of promoted identity classes, and thus cements and expands it like a metastatic cancer. It seems we are reaching Stage 4.

And some also observe rising with the incompetence a serendipitous ruse in play: Using incompetence as cover for many things. The IC would not be alone in employing this artifice, but they apparently have the added ability to insert players and events to reinforce perceptions spun by their narrative manipulations.

For the IC, the incompetency ruse would be a favored stratagem, because it cannot be assailed due to the identity class issue.

The cat pics are priceless 🙂
