You are the one out of line. 17 days later if they can't figure who dropped the ball then he too should resign because no accounblity at this point is unacceptable

[chriscarey]

They let him shoot and when he missed they killed him

[ebenezerwheezer]

Everybody relax. The Secret Service and the FBI will investigate themselves and find no wrongdoing.👍

[vaughnkaylor]

Who made the call to let Trump take stage when this is going on. Someone had to make the decision to let the show go on .

[danielclint]

No, this guy was second in command, he did not just walk into this.

[frankchanget]

NO, you guys are wrong. Who was put in charge of securing the site? The site was not secured. President got shot, others died. And this guy needs a full investigation to determine who should be held responsible. Again, who was in charge of securing the site? They didn't do their job, fire him.

They can find us for a warrant, but cant investigate an assassination, lmfaolmfao

[dougwalls]

Man, the whole world seen this and I can't help feeling like our nation has never been more vulnerable.

[Brusky_Halo]

No propaganda ... NO the POLICE DEPARTMENT SAW HIM 90 min prior the secret service did not respond to them telling them . They did nothing, your lying intentionally

[kaileymarie]

They should be able to tell us a lot more by now...

[lupecisneros]

This 20 year old guy was more intelligent than FBI agents for me this was a failure period 😮

[marycorradetti]

This was intentional because you couldn’t plan that many mistakes.

[wjceqcc]

TMZ if someone in your office came out with a story that was completely false would you wait for an investigation before letting that person go or keep them in the loop too possibly falsely change the investigation ??

[Toilettrauma]

How much investigating do they need? Another week, month or indefinite years to come??? What a load of crap

[Ant_Man]

They all that were there supposedly doing their JOB!! All should BE FIRED!!

[erichtorres]

I cant believe your saying he was out of line we have campaigns going on and you guys want SS to keep those people longer Cheatle wouldn't have resigned if not for pressure

[tommymason]

Sen. Hawley is out of line?? …. Bro you are Not that simple minded.

[codyroeder]

I hate when people who shouldn't talk about politics talk about politics

[ImAskinGODgivenessHowAboutU]

Why the hell would he try to kill himself? The people who say that this is a hoax is delusional

[steves.]

Conspiracy or not, failure like this is inexcusable & if it takes more than 3 days to fire the man/woman in charge of this fiasco, then it stinks like a dad fish.
