They were either completely incompetent or they were happy to see how things played out. Cheatle got absolutely destroyed today, she should be ashamed of herself and should be fired
Ya I can hardly blame you for that!!! IT's all so odd.
I don’t Know what it was.
But I don’t believe the “official” version of events for a second.
I’m sure that the party of “tone that rhetoric down” doesn’t know what those words mean

Im sure she will be out of a job in a few months, thats for sure
or they haven’t ruled it out yet. What you’re sure of could fill a shopping bag im sure.
Back when gardaí couldn't access blood for testing when a suspected drunk driver was taken directly to hospital, I knew a solicitor who regularly drove while intoxicated.
He carried a single-sided razor in the sun visor. If stopped and asked to get out of the car, he would take the razor, fall on the road and nick the top right of his forehead near the hairline. Up he gets, bleeding etc, claims to have a head injury so had to go straight to hospital. He had a number of tiny scars in that area, and no DD convictions...
The director wouldnt answer if the shooter worked alone, Im sure they know or not at this stage, fairly basic question, seems like she will be out of a job by dec
The maddest aspect of all this is the behaviour of the Director of the Secret Service….I've never seen the likes, she should have been fired the minute she suggested that the reason there were no snipers on the roof that the shooter took 7/8 shots at the former President is that is was a little too slopey!!! And her behaviour since hasn't improved.
The way things are going crazy conspiracy are now becoming through
N Haley why she stayed so long when it was obvious wud not win
If she knew Trump was going to get clipped go to rnc I have most delegates.
Trump not killed she was begging him to forgive her
Wud you see kamala clipped if her numbers are brutal blame a hillbilly trump fan
The world is crazy
Witches.
Forgot the smilie. But still....

Is that a serious post?
Maybe he slashed his ear with a razor blade when he was in the huddle.…
View of the roof where the shooter fired from.
You think it was tomato ketchup on Trumps face after he got up and not blood?
Ok - so - on first principles you are going wrong - some say there was no direct hit on his ear - but it was a red sauce packet he squeezed on cue at the right moment.
There are YouTube/tiktok clips showing the whole kit and caboodle.
I've been coming across people who actually believe this was an inside job, instigated by the Trump campaign.
It would have required the involvement of the USSS, the young shooter, the Trump campaign all of whom would have had to come up with a scheme to shoot the former President in the head, to wound him tho….not kill him…and get him on board as well.
That is outrageous!!
The most messed up aspect of all this, is that the most obvious theory is that it was an inside job. That would explain how little we know about the shooter, and how he managed to pull off a shooting from the best possible vantage point, and that that vantage point was unpoliced, and that that shooter had attracted the attention of a number of officials all of whom lost track of him, until he fired off 7/8 shots.
I really do not want to believe that America is that f##ked up…but it is the most obvious theory. I'm still leaning on the incompetence angle, and if you have seen the Director of the Secret Service it's not hard to see how incompetent she is, but it's also hard to ignore that she seems to be acting in a fairly unusual manner. The reputation of the Secret Service is in the toilet.
I don’t know if this will be the most entertaining hearing I might watch later or the most excruciating:

Earlier commentary seemed closer to right than I initially would have believed (with apologies to that user): the director is extremely reluctant to give a straight answer to the overwhelming majority of questions.
Brutal stuff. No idea what the big deal is about answering how many shells were found on the roof.
The director has got to go, now she just admitted she knows the answers to questions but refuses to give them.
Nancy Mace telling her "she's full of ****". She's more than likely be forced to resign
Lots of stuff on x/Twitter saying Don Jr and an associate of Steve Bannon were involved in very suspect conversations and planning. Could it have been a “false flag” operation?
With the Trumpsters anything is possible!
It wouldn’t surprise me that you’d find anything Rep Luna says to be grounded in reality.
More questions than answers

I am watching the hearing now only saw about 15 minutes. America is an odd place politically/mindset.
Two Congress members of colour (as they say) tried to shoehorn racism as the reason for the attempt on Trump. As white men are not viewed as a threat etc.
Secret Service Director Cheatle refuses to answer questions directly, and refuses to resign. Another congress woman referenced that it is like Slim Shady's song "It wasn't me"
It is definitely going to be a film in 20 years time.
well I tuned in and watched Pete sessions ask her questions that she either a) answered or b) was talked over by sessions grandstanding the second she would open her mouth to answer a question he asked, apparently rhetorically, so without looking at this more at work, she isn’t not answering “any” questions, FTR, but I can’t dispute that it’s a car crash or not I don’t have the time to watch more this morning but I’m sure the soundbytes will make the headlines and YouTube shorts which seems to be what republicans are fishing for here today (and to their advantage the water is chummed up for a change)
It is an absolute total car crash.
USSS* not the Nazis. And she isn’t answering “any” questions? Overegg the pudding some more.
SS director on capital hill being asked lots of questions not answering any of them
