Please do not let them get away with this.

[FJBVoteTRUMP]

Thank you Ted Cruz for exposing the cover up

[MrsRanchoFiesta]

Acting Director Rowe should be fired for the political bureaucrat he is.

[sirdernosoftides]

FBI INVESTIGATING WHY THEIR ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT FAILED 😂😂

[jamesarmstrong]

Keep after them Ted I think you will find it was an inside job

[UniversalPatriots]

I'm proud of Ted for steping up to the plate 😊

[harleydie]

When us little people lie under oath we go to jail.

[Odarnet-DJT]

Intentional mistakes to remove a political rival.

[martingindulis]

YOU DON.T EXPECT THEM TO ADMIT THEY WERE TRYING TO HARM TRUMP DO YOU.

[tommyhunter]

I directly accuse them of being in on it.

[postscript]

I agree with Senator Cruz's conclusions. I find it very concerning that the S.S., FBI, etc. did not inform the public about the PA tragedy investigation's details for over two weeks. Why no press conferences?

[anoka]

Glad we have someone like Cruz in Congress that calls it the way it is!!!!

[robertlotzer]

When will everyone realize that the last thing the SS is is incompetent? This was not incompetence. This was a stand down call from somebody. This was on purpose.

[ThumbdownMan]

Very intellegent guy talking with no paper notes needed.

[mysterymystery]

Fire all USSS Leadership and deny pension of Acting director and leadership.

[followyourbliss]

How did the shooter ride his bicycle carrying a backpack with a rifle in it go undetected, climb on the roof of a building and seen by a crowd of people and snipers? Very strange!

[williamcrum]

How deep are we the people willing to let this continue in our free country

[testy]

Maybe the reason the people who made the wrong decisions during the assassination attempt have not been fired is because the current director is afraid of what they might reveal about him if he fired them!!!

"Nothing went wrong, and we did a fantastic job." Sounds like the Afghanistan pullout.

[rezzytheskyguy]

they are complicit. they've watched for months people be questioned by your commitee under oath to then lie under those oaths with no penalty for perjury or any other consequence extracted. They will not tell the truth until we find it. And even then, they will deny it until we prove it beyond a reasonable doubt. they are complicit.
