He has more lives than a Springfield cat.

Do not give this case to the FBI unless you want to wait years for a we can’t figure it out.

[stephenbarrett]

Is this going to happen every month now?

[TheHellFlower]

The amount of people here wishing the dude dead in not so many words is wild. Ya'll are effed up. Get your meds checked. No one has to die for this, whether you like them or not.

[Maris-W]

Amazing the difference in the amount of information being released this time when we still don't have all the facts from the first time. And the fact that the Secret Service took shots not waiting on permission. That's more like it.

[danmatherlee]

Apparently the swamp ain't done trying to stop Trump yet.

[adamburgins]

I don't believe a word they say this shit just does not add up

[HeatSeeker]

that witness that got a picture of the car is a real one

[yuteckfoo]

Has any of the agencies questioned those who openly suggested that they were frustrated with the first missed attempts on Donald Trump?

[facehunter]

So the agent that spotted the shooter saw a barrel hanging out of the bush, but couldn’t see a shooter on a roof that everyone was pointing at?

Yeaaaa okayyy

[joeweeks]

They charged him with 2 wimpy gun charges....no attempted murder?....weird

[johndodson]

What the hell happens when a PROFESSIONAL KILLER tries to kill Trump, rather than an unsophisticated, lone wolf?

[peace-yvqd]

How did this guy get within a mile of Trump? Someone has some explaining to do. The explanation that Trump is not the sitting President so his protection is limited. Thats BS.

[kellyandthorulf]

The sheriff did a good opening briefing, but I don't think anyone trusts either the FBI or the Secret Service after their many failures to live up to their missions.

[lauriehermundson]

Incredibly fishy, who stops to lean their rifle against the fence and "then" run?

[muchdo]

Too bad these agencies have lost the trust of our US citizens! The feeling of security for our people is gone, these agencies are given a great amount of monies and benefits, great salaries, paid by we the people and they still fall short of their oath to serve and protect. But continue to tax the shit out of us like it’s a joke . Too many chiefs and not enough Indians. With the amount of resources existing the people could do better without the top brass political BS. How many of these employees can and have been bought to look the other way? We need to audit each and every person on an annual basis and enforce perjury and no one is exempt from breaking the law!

[RobertWilliams-mkpl]

"The Secret Service sends an agent one hole ahead" Beautiful the they would make any of their tactics public. That's real thinking.

[wt]

Why there is no 24×7 protection or watch by FBI for presidential candidate.

[jameslong]

It was an SKS not an Ak47. Attention to detail does not seem to be the rule of law anymore.

[shirlburris-fgeq]

Government trying harder to make sure trump doesn't get into the whitehouse
