The director of secret service, Kimberly Cheatle, was hired by the Biden administration in 2020 & was working at PepsiCo before that. Zero military or secret service experience


Seems you are wrong

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kimberly_Cheatle#Career

Cheatle joined the United States Secret Service in 1995
She became the first woman to serve as assistant director of Protective Operations, a department tasked with protection of the president and dignitaries, and managed a budget of over $133.5 million.
etc

Seems Pepsi was a 3y break

20 years old with AR-15-type, got his "DemolitionRanch" tshirt....

Like shooting from the roof like this was almost a suicide by cop, and he was living at less than 100km from the rally ...

Is this not less about political persuasion and more about mentally ill people having access to firearms?


Here we go with the anti-gun non-americans.

Softdrink companies have paramilitary death squads all over the world, actually. I'm sure she's qualified.

And to add, let us not forget Democrats wanted to strip Trump of Secret Service Protection due to the felony.
Trumps team had even requested a larger ss detail for events.

How that roof top was not covered by the SS is mind boggling.

Ya the info coming out is brutal. The first counter sniper team had the guy in their sights before he fired. People are claiming that the ss responds after a shot is heard to avoid "accidentally shooting a bystander with a telescope"

Maybe a guy crawling around on a rooftop with a deadly assault weapon 100ish yards away warrants a shoot first ask questions later response? Both cst teams had a better vantage point of the Maga crowd instead of blatantly obvious snipers nests. Did the secret service make the judgment call that magatards are the biggest threat to democracy? Cause it sure seems so

An AR-15 can be set to fire .22 cal bullets... easily.

Hell... the standard M-16 bullets is only like .1mm bigger than a .22

Biggest diff is the fact that .556 is armor piercing depending on the round variant.
