Trump shot?

[l0st]

It has begun...

Normally I would have placed this in the "Propaganda" forum.

From FOX: Secret Service increased Trump's security recently over intel of Iranian assassination plot

Remember what I mentioned earlier in this thread, "Never let a crisis go to waste?"

They pick NOW to bring up the notion of an Iranian plot?  They pick NOW to "add that" to the conversation.  Why?

Of course the Iranians, and most every other US antagonist, has "chattered" about killing Trump... AND Biden... and a slew of other people they hate.  Hell, even our own CIA harbors many assassination-plots of elite-players in their back pocket. It's what these people do... they always have.  

Is this because they want to offer public information that the Secret Service is "always on the lookout" and had "sufficient" attention to the physical safety of this candidate (and former President?)  Is it a need to increase 'confidence' in them, and ward off any uncomfortable questions about exactly what culture lurks within the Secret Service now?  Is the taint of covert partisan alignment now to be found even within the body of the Secret Service, even as it is manifesting elsewhere?

I suspect there's more distraction to come...

Welcome to the first one I found.

I think it's deflection and intentional misinformation.

Anyone who knows how the SS operates knows that they tak control of the entire area prior to an event. The President even has an "away team" that arrives in advance and sets everything up beforehand. I realize he is no longer the President but my tacit understanding is that similar security services are typically offered to ex-Presidents and candidates. All this crap about reduced services for non-electees sounds like bullshit to me. I'm not aware that has ever been the case.

What would be the point of a knowingly incomplete security detail? Better than nothing? Doesn't really add up to me. You're either securing the premises or not. "Defense in depth."

Keep in mind, Executive branch compounds are classified "C3I" which stands for "Command, Control, Communications, and Intelligence " and are run by the military. If you watch the President entering the West Wing on TV they are US Marines at the door.

So there was a BIG security fuckup but now it's Iran's fault? Well, I'll wait and see what, if any, evidence comes forward to back up that theory, but I haven't seen a single (onvios) Iranian in any of the videos of the event.
