What the Secret Service knew before the Trump assassination attempt

The Secret Service says it learned of the threat to former President Donald Trump's life just 10 minutes before the shooting happened at a rally Saturday. Now lawmakers are demanding a congressional hearing into the assassination attempt.

Resign? F**k that. She needs to be fired and arrested on charges of being an accomplice to the assassination attempt.

[suemullins]

They knew and let Trump take the stage

[ryan]

Why would the secret service allow a man to be on a nearby roof for 20 minutes and allow Trump to be on stage.

[xx__blz_it_xx]

She’s not stepping down or being fired because she was following orders.

[sues]

That is an admission of guilt. WHY was he allowed on the stage before the threat was neutralized? This whole things stinks.

[HsingSun]

They knew, but they failed. There are too many suspicious.

[ieskiyi]

Our Federal Government is our biggest problem

[clocks]

She is going to break, once they clamp her down on questioning..she knows something?

[lazynow]

she needs to go back to protecting bottles of sugar water....

[desert-walker]

So let me get this straight they knew the kid had a rangefinder yet they didn’t take him away and question him and keep him away from the place that’s number one number two she didn’t put any guards on the roof because it was a slightly sloped roof as you can see by people walking up there like somebody was going to fall L O L that right there tells you she’s a liar She wanted it unprotected incase somebody did decide to do something or she’s just a complete idiot and is totally unqualified for this job. You don’t just tell the police you guys are in charge of this building and then forget about it if that’s what happened at all who knows but even a complete idiot would put somebody on that roof, and also have at least four walking around the building

Why is the Director of the Secret Service even attending the RNC Event? Disgraceful...

[EarthCitizen]

Hate to say it, but this story keeps looking more and more like failure was intentional. Knew all, did nothing? Really?

[dubyredburndarling]

He should have been detained! Why was Trump allowed to go on the podium?!! This rings so loud of set up.

[zcrrwiv]

All these girls out of the kitchen is absurd

[uvycbno]

SPOTTED HIM? .... MORE LIKE; ASSISTED HIM

[MrJonAkemon]

Parents called the police 3 hours prior saying their son was missing. Secret service was watching the shooter for over an hour prior

[juanwyckoff]

They really Tried to back door Trump… how y’all see him on the roof and let Trump go on stage. That’s dumb af.

[edwardsullivan]

10 Minutes...
And the Head of the Secret Service is still employed...?!

[psykart]

10 minutes before he walked on stage, not 10 minutes before the shooting

[crwrwep]

That's a lie. The Secret Service knew about the shooting threat 26 minutes before the shooting. Crooks was on the building roof for 26 minutes. He also went through a check point 90 minutes before the shooting with a range finder. Why does someone need a range finder at a political rally?!!!! Crooks should have been on the radar then. Another question that no one is asking....HOW DID CROOKS KNOW HE COULD ACCESS THE ROOF OF THAT BUILDING UNDETECTED OR UNDETERRED BEING SO CLOSE TO THE STAGE AND....THAQT VERY BUILDING BEING A STAGING AREA FOR LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT?
