Top officials repeatedly rejected requests from Trump’s security detail for more manpower and gear at events before the attempted assassination. At times, they cited a lack of resources.

We can send billions of dollars to Ukraine but not provide resources to protect presidential candidates? I would have bought them a drone if I knew they didn’t have one.

They did this to RFK Jr., too, and he’s a Democrat. The killer looked up Biden’s events and information on the Royal Family. They must protect these people.

They knew about this killer for at least an hour. They let Donald Trump take the stage when they spotted assassin Thomas Crooks on the roof. President Trump almost died, and Corey Comperatore died. Two men were critically wounded. Donald Trump said the two injured men would be okay.

Top officials at the U.S. Secret Service repeatedly denied requests for additional resources and personnel sought by Donald Trump’s security detail in the two years leading up to his attempted assassination at a rally in Pennsylvania last Saturday, according to four people familiar with the requests.

The requests, which have not been previously reported, were sometimes denied by senior officials at the agency, who cited various reasons, including a lack of resources at an agency that has long struggled with staffing shortages, they said.
