Ron Johnson Lays Out Astonishing Info and Big Questions in New Report on Assassination Attempt

There’s been some incredibly disturbing information that has come out so far in regard to the Secret Service handling of security for the Trump rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, on July 13 before the assassination attempt where former President Donald Trump was shot in the ear, Corey Comperatore was killed, and two other men were injured. 

We reported on Sunday about the disturbing news that the Secret Service admitted they hadn’t provided resources when asked for the Trump detail, when they had previously denied that. Also, according to information from Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) reported by Real Clear Politics’ Susan Crabtree, they delegated 12 post-standers for Jill Biden’s event in Pittsburgh versus three for Trump’s event with many more people in Butler. That, despite a known threat from the Iranians against Trump. 

We had already covered the report that resources had been moved to Jill Biden from the Trump detail and that the Trump detail didn’t have a lot of their regular people on it, that there were “temps” on the detail.

Now, there’s even more. As Matt Vespa from our sister site Townhall reported, Fox’s Maria Bartiromo hit one of the highlights that a new preliminary report from Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) reveals about the assassination attempt — who they gave pictures of the dead alleged shooter to. This is crazy, but it shows how loose everything seems to have been around this whole event. 

But it gets even worse, as Johnson explains. Those pictures were sent to an ATF agent who has gone dark. Johnson then raises the stunning possibility of a second shooter. He also goes into more detail about how the Secret Service didn’t even attend the 9:00 a.m. security meeting on July 13 with local law enforcement, and they weren’t even on the same security channel. Yikes. 

Crabtree lays out a lot of the concerning things in Johnson’s preliminary report. 

Key findings:
1.) Secret Service did not attend a security briefing provided to local special weapons and tactics (SWAT) and sniper teams the morning of July 13, 2024. Why not?–There was a 9 a.m. briefing on July 13, 2024, Butler County Emergency Services (Butler ESU) provided a security briefing for the local SWAT teams and snipers assigned to the rally. In addition to Butler County, local SWAT teams and snipers from Washington County and Beaver County were also tasked with security responsibilities.
2. Local law enforcement said communications were siloed and they were not in frequent radio contact directly with Secret Service.
3. Local law enforcement notified command about Crooks prior to the shooting and received confirmation that Secret Service was aware of the notification.
4. Following the shooting Secret Service was seen on the roof of the AGR building with local law enforcement; photos of the shooter were sent to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) for facial recognition.
5.) Secret Service was initially not going to send snipers to the rally, according to local lawenforcement.

If they hadn’t had any snipers there, there would likely be more people dead. But not being in frequent radio contact may explain why they didn’t have a proper response to the shooter. 

But it’s clear from the initial report that there was a huge failure, and the Secret Service head, Kim Cheatle, needs to answer up in the hearing she’s supposed to be at.
