President Trump was a target of an apparent assasination attempt today during his rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. One Trump supporter was killed an another is in critical condition. The shooter’s “head was blown off,” according to an eyewitness.
An eyewitness to the shooting told a BBC reporter that he tried to alert the Secret Service and police that a man was crawling on a rooftop with a rifle, but said they ignored him. Watch the eyewitness interview HERE.
The Secret Service has now made the following statement regarding the assasination attempt of the Republican candidate for President and former President of the United States. Here’s what they had to say:
“During former President Trump’s campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania on the evening of July 13th at approximately
6:15 p.m., a suspected shooter fired multiple shots toward the stage from an elevated position outside of the rally venue. US Secret Service personnel neutralized the shooter, who is now deceased. US Secret Service quickly responded with protective measures and the former president is safe and being evaluated. One spectator was killed, two spectators were critically injured. The incident is currently under investigation and the Secret Service has formally notified the Federal Bureau of investigation.”

James O’Keefe had this to say about the inept actions of the Secret Service.
DEVELOPING…Shooter found dead on rooftop with vantage point to stage.
Secret Service tasks counter assault teams to cover ALL vantage points — rooftops most obvious.
Counter assault teams are outsourced professionals. Unlikely they make these mistakes, even “B” team tasked to cover Trump.
Glaring error or intentional overlook. Confirmed with former CA team organizer and trainer.
While massive errors are possible, plausible intentional overlook of rooftop is more likely with CA team assignments given by SS. Who makes those possible? Deep State Intel Community?
