According to Breaking Points, text messages from local law enforcement show they were aware and tracking the shooter and knew he was carrying a rangefinder, up to 1.5hrs before he shot Trump.
Local police photographed the suspect and suggested notifying SS Snipers to "look out" and sending in someone to "check it out".
The Secret Service and those up in the chain of command appear to have ignored the warnings and their requests.

As the info keeps coming out, I keep going back and forth between 'weird conspiracy' and 'holy shit, what if they are actually just that fucking retarded?'
Like, retardation must play some part, right?
If I was in a high level position of power and wanted someone dead, I could come up with a better plan...on my own.
Like, I do think there was malice but...holy shit, they were also just really, really bad. That's the most shocking part; they really were actually incompetent.
So, there were three people in that building, one guy just fucked off randomly, then the other guy locked himself out, and the third guy goes down to let him in...right as Crooks is climbing up into what would have been their vision?
Meanwhile, the SS was denying Trump more protection, some people didn't even show up, his main team was swapped out because they were 'overworked,' and then the people that did show up didn't even go to the fucking meeting, so it sounds like comms weren't even fully set up?
It's like a conspiracy fiction...that's a comedy. If life were movie, Leslie Nielson would be the star, or something.
The incompetence could be planned as in incompetent people were specifically put in place to make sure it would go wrong.
That's my running theory as well. It seems like incompetence from the top down, and it very likely could be.
But also it appears that ever lever you could possibly pull to fuck this all up was pulled. Every single time a single instance of someone trying to do the right thing was ignored, or intentionally made worse by doing the opposite of what was necessary.
Bottom line: the guy had a range finder and a rifle and was within shooting range of a former president. He shouldn't have been able to sit around on a roof top for an hour and a half to take aim.
That's why I don't think it was total retardation, just enough somewhere in the hierarchy to believe Trump's death would benefit them. There didn't need to be a plan (it's not off the table, but it's unnecessary), they just needed everyone in the right place to be on the same page. These agents knew there were powers above them that wanted Trump dead, and all they had to do was ignore one little detail that they could pass off as ignorance or a procedural mishap.
I don't think they were answering to the highest powers, to be clear. The existence of Trump scared libs into absolute compliance. Trump can't be their boogeyman if he's dead, and his death probably would have started more fires than they'd want to put out. The real powers, if they have any sense at all, want Trump to be alive, but impotent. That's the only way he's useful to them. Some fucking midwit lib running the SS though? Absolutely smart enough to put this in motion, and stupid enough to think it was a good idea.
Ignore what a lot of them are saying now. Each group are trying to shave the blame off to the others. Reality is the Secret Service did not do their job to defend the President (both their job at providing active defense and department management of the other groups involved.) The “why” only matters now if they all did it on purpose. That blame is now gone with the head of the Secret Service resigned. She took the full blunt as a good little puppet. A new one will replace her and it’ll be up to Trump to use it or to just stick with his own team.
I wouldn't have anyone involved in the management of that operation organise a school crossing let alone the safety of an ex-President in the running to be the next President.
My understanding is this is the guy who took the picture and he went looking for Crooks. Which is why it hard to believe it to be basic retardation. They saw the kid. They made his bicycle. They knew he must be on the roof. Officers started pouring into AGR. They tried to get a view up on the roof and an officer injured himself in the process. All before he took a shot.
The kid did drone surveillance the day before. He shot at a range that the government uses. You give someone a little bit of tactical training and they can do some pretty impressive things. You can do this in a week or two. The rest of military training is all about unit endurance and special skills.
Trump dead was not the endpoint. It was most likely meant to be an initiating event. The way in which it was done was likely just as important.
I mean.. you have to have Jack Ruby ready to go before you give Oswald the order, right?
And now I'm wondering if they have any plans to defend against someone copying what drones do over trenches in Ukraine. Or are they waiting for it to happen first so that Congress has an excuse to restrict private drone ownership?
It was a DJI drone. The same type they already wanted to ban. The FBI helpfully told us they were able to "exploit" the drone to get flight information out of it after the fact.
It's worse than you think already.
Great point... a signal jammer would be the only obvious current solution. It's a problem in a war because it's like lighting a Christmas tree signals-wise, but for a political rally you're not worried about HARM missiles.
Shotguns are also an option. Or maybe an anti-drone drone.
I used to think that when the government does something retarded it's usually safe to assume it was actually maliciousness masked as bureaucratic idiocy. I think that was probably true for most of our past.
This case could very well be one where both governmental incompetency due to DEI and maliciousness were in play.
All of the wet ops in the past were run by skilled white men. Now they have DEI hires planning and completing them.
The DEI retards are just looking back at what worked in the past and trying to follow the formula as they understand it. Trouble is they are too fucking retarded to understand why what was done in the past worked in the exact situations it worked in. They're trying to force square pegs in round holes because they cant see that the object in their hand is square.
It actually takes a supreme level of competency to purposely fuck something up and have it look like it was just incompetence. DEI hires are not capable of that.
It’s kinda the price you pay when trying to manipulate mentally ill people to try and carry out your dirty work. Look at the Vegas shooter for example, so many fucking holes in that plot that they had to patch it up with the dumbest shit I’ve ever heard.
Can you go into more detail? I know a bit about the Vegas shooting, but don't recall all the holes and stuff.
The more info comes out, the worse it gets. At this point, I'm expecting the news that the kid's piano tutor was "ex" CIA or something stupid like that.
No they weren't. They're claiming it to save their own asses. This is stupid middle bureaucrats trying to sound like they aren't useless.
