That is exactly what an unhinged Biden supporter did at Trump\u2019s rally in Butler Pennsylvania today when a deranged Antifa supporter opened fire about ten minutes into Trump\u2019s speech that left Trump shot in the ear, a Trump supporter seated behind him killed, and\u00a0reports that two others were hit and are in critical condition. The\u00a0shooter was shot and killed just 20 seconds after the shooting stopped, remember that.<\/p>\n<p><strong>*Here is a video of the shooting:<br \/>\n<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/CitizenFreePres\/status\/1812255610286522540\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/x.com\/CitizenFreePres\/status\/1812255610286522540<\/a><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"twitter-tweet twitter-tweet-rendered\"><iframe id=\"twitter-widget-0\" class=\"\" title=\"X Post\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/embed\/Tweet.html?dnt=true&amp;embedId=twitter-widget-0&amp;features=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%3D%3D&amp;frame=false&amp;hideCard=false&amp;hideThread=false&amp;id=1812255610286522540&amp;lang=en&amp;origin=https%3A%2F%2Foperationdisclosureofficial.com%2F2024%2F07%2F14%2Ftrump-assassination-attempt-was-it-allowed-to-happen%2F&amp;sessionId=10061f42bfc8b0e95acb8e732ccc1032bab3d0ed&amp;theme=light&amp;widgetsVersion=2615f7e52b7e0%3A1702314776716&amp;width=550px\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-tweet-id=\"1812255610286522540\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-17\"><\/div>\n<p>Witnesses said they saw a man, Thomas Matthew Crooks, belly crawling on the roof of a nearby building and said they screamed at police and Secret Service officers pointing at the roof where the gunman was positioning himself but they made no move to stop him. The witness, in an interview right after the shooting said they saw the Secret Service \u201cBlow his head off\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>He also said it was suspicious that there were only a few buildings on the premises and there were no secret service agents positioned on the roof where the shooter was positioned. He said it was also suspicious that with Secret Service and police officers everywhere, they allowed a guy to crawl up the side of a building\u00a0so close to where Trump was speaking without being stopped and questioned. How does he go unnoticed\u00a0belly crawling across the roof with a rifle, and no one saw him?<\/p>\n<p>The witness said the Secret Service had binoculars, and said the snipers on the building behind Trump appeared to be aiming at the building the shooter was on before the shooting. The witness said,\u00a0\u201cWe screamed for them to check the guy on the roof and they ignored us\u201d. What was really going on?<\/p>\n<p>Trump was wearing a bulletproof vest at Saturday\u2019s speech, which he does not always do but this shot came within inches of the former president\u2019s head and certain death or serious injury.

The failures are profound and questions about ground surveillance, air surveillance, post stander support, counter-sniper advance work, and response must be answered. We have one job and we came within inches of a tragic failure today\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Why were the police and Secret Service not paying attention to these warnings about the shooter? The interviewer asked the witness if the Secret Service saw him trying to warn them and he said, \u201cyes, we were all pointing to the rooftop and he was looking right at us.\u201d Hmm\u2026<br \/>\nWitnesses say that after the initial burst of 7 or 8 shots, there was a pause, then a single shot rang out. Within seconds the killer was dead. The question isn\u2019t should people be fired for incompetence, the question is, will this be blamed on some other absurd reason, or is this Secret Service detail compromised?<\/p>\n<p>Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle is a Biden Administration DEI hire who has already had a scandal on her watch with a female agent whose past should have been a red flag, but instead, she was greenlighted for service and elevated to Kamala Harris\u2019s detail until her psychotic episode likely ended her career. Is anyone in the Biden administration competent for their position?<\/p>\n<p>There are no coincidences folks, as always, something is rotten here and the one thing I\u2019m sure of is we\u2019re being lied to. Trust no one.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019d like to support my work, any contribution no matter how small would be greatly appreciated.
