Secret Service Opted Out of Drone Surveillance Before Trump Assassination Attempt – US Senator
Sputnik – 26.07.2024
The probe into the attempted assassination of Donald Trump has uncovered new details of the botched security operation at the Pennsylvania rally.
Republican Senator Josh Hawley has submitted a letter to the US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) with shocking details that the Secret Service – responsible for ensuring the safety of the former president’s life – “repeatedly” turned down offers by local police to carry out drone surveillance of the area.
“The night before the rally, US Secret Service repeatedly denied offers from a local law enforcement partner to utilize drone technology to secure the rally,” the senator wrote to Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, citing information from a whistleblower.
The whistleblower also alleged that it was not until after the deadly shootout that the Secret Service went on to use drones to record the area, Hawley noted.
Hawley had previously quoted the whistleblower and spoken out against the officer who left the very spot from which the assassin targeted Trump. The officer allegedly left the roof of the warehouse because it was “too hot.”
“It is hard to understand why [the Secret Service] would decline to use drones when they were offered, particularly given the fact USSS [US Secret Service] permitted the shooter to overfly the rally area with his own drone mere hours before [the] event,” the Republican senator elaborated further.
Hawley also went on to mention that the whistleblower believes that using drones would have helped neutralize the sniper.

The US staked a claim on half the world, as Senate Armed Services Committee chair Jim Inhofe said Washington might have to intervene in Venezuela if Russia dares set up a military base not just there, but “in our hemisphere.”
“I think that it could happen,” Inhofe (R-Oklahoma) told a group of reporters on Tuesday. “You’ve got a guy down there that is killing everybody. You could have him put together a base that Russia would have on our hemisphere. And if those things happen, it may be to the point where we’ll have to intervene with troops and respond.”
Should Russia dare encroach on the US’ neck of the woods, Inhofe said: “we have to take whatever action necessary to stop them from doing that.” … continue

I don’t believe for a second that Donald Trump was hit by a bullet. It was most likely a setup to have him reelected. This whole thing was necessary to make Donald Trump acceptable to the American public. And they ate it like breakfast.

Short explanation:
The bullet theory is based on three miracles. First, an unknown ‘shooter’ was able to enter an unsecured roof. Second, Donald Trump turned his head unexpectedly. Third, the ‘bullet’ was caught on camera. And it happened precisely when the incumbent president had to be replaced.
