EXPLOSIVE REPORT: Secret Service Knew of Threat LONG Before Trump Took the Stage!
It’s been revealed that the Secret Service was well aware of the danger lurking in the shadows before Donald Trump took the stage at a recent event. According to Senator John Barrasso, the Secret Service had identified Thomas Crooks, the man behind the attempted assassination, as “a character of suspicion” over an hour prior to the shooting. That’s right, folks. They had this guy on their radar, and yet they allowed Trump to be put in harm’s way.
But the negligence doesn’t end there. While the shooting was taking place, the Secret Service agent in charge of security was reportedly on the phone with local and state police discussing the threat. So, let’s get this straight – they knew there was a potential danger, they had eyes on the suspect, and yet they still let Trump go out there and face the music.
What’s even more alarming is that civilians were desperately shouting to law enforcement about a man with a gun on the building where Crooks was perched. People were literally screaming for someone to stop this madness, and yet nothing was done. Talk about a colossal failure in security.
Source familiar with Secret Service briefing w/Senators tells me a timeline shared with them reveals SS was aware of a threat about 10 minutes before TRUMP walked on stage and still let him on stage.

This is absolutely disgraceful and unacceptable. The Secret Service is supposed to be the best of the best, protecting our president at all costs. But instead, we see a dereliction of duty that puts the leader of our country in harm’s way. It’s a wonder how these individuals are even allowed to hold their positions.
As this story continues to unfold, we must demand answers. How did this happen? Why was Trump put in danger when the Secret Service had prior knowledge of the threat? There needs to be a thorough investigation into this matter, and heads need to roll if there was any negligence involved.
