Still doesn’t answer the question of why that building was left open and how that asshole got up there and lingered for so long. The dude must have been a boss on COD to maneuver as suggested.
That lady “leader” need to go yesterday. But since everyone else leading over Bagram was promoted UP under Joe I’m not holding my breath.

I was not familiar with Tim Kennedy before this video.
I am impressed with his analysis and conclusions, very similar to my conversations with other individuals with the same background.
I will be sending his interview to all (!) of my acquaintances - especially his recommendation of what President Trump needs to do to survive!

7.62x51 from an SR-25 say the reports I’ve seen.
If he’d been hit with a .300 WM, there’d be no head.

Yeah, it's a limited sample size, but their "idiocy output" has been consistent for over 20 years-- from Day One at FLETC-- and that makes me believe that it's not just tolerated in the USSS but actually celebrated and cultivated. All of this makes me lean hard towards "Incompetence."

Personally, I burnt out on 'selection of best VP nominee to win the upcoming election' many quadrennia ago. Figured, leave that to the folks who (figuratively) like seeing the sausage made.
Besides, I'm 99 44/100% sure that
President Trump/Vice President Vance will be working for us from 2025 on.
So, why are we happy with Vance?
As TSE put it so eloquently,
quote:
Originally posted by TSE: Vance is far too capable to be a figurehead. It is likely that Trump learned from last time that the swamp is deep and he needs trustworthy, effective, and like minded leadership in cabinet positions. I don't think he cared about bringing in one demographic or another, this was about building a better more effective team when he assumes office.
So, here is an article showing Vance to be a true proponent and defender of Second Amendment, and his uncommonly good common sense about the nature of violence in modern America.
And as we know, The God-given Rights enumerated in the Contstitution and Bill of Rights do not stand alone.
Chestnut's summary paragraphs: 'Most gun -rights supporters should be pleased with Trump naming Vance as his running mate, thereby shoring up any dissent among 2A voters who weren’t already on the Trump Train. As for gun-ban groups and gun haters, they’ll now have someone else on the Republican ticket to hate other than just the former president.
In comparing the two V.P. candidates—Vance and Democrat Kamala Harris—on Second Amendment issues, there really is no comparison. While Vance has proven himself a strong supporter of gun owners and the Second Amendment, Harris has fought for more, and more restrictive, gun schemes at every turn, mostly unsuccessfully thank goodness.' ____
More from article:
On Monday, Trump named Republican U.S. Sen. J.D. Vance of Ohio as his running mate in his quest for a second term. And a look at Vance’s record on guns and gun control reveals that he is a very strong proponent of gun owners’ rights.
“Joe Biden and anti-democracy multinational companies are trying to find new ways to take guns away from law-abiding citizens,” Vance said when running for the Senate in 2021. “They’re making it harder to buy firearms and ammunition, and imposing new, unconstitutional regulations on American citizens. I will fight the gun grabbers, whether they’re federal bureaucrats enacting regulations or multinational companies punishing people for exercising their rights.”
In a guest column for the Columbus Dispatch in July 2021, Vance wrote of growing up using firearms and of an “unholy alliance” coming for our guns.
“Worryingly, perhaps the biggest threat to the Second Amendment comes not from the Biden Administration, but from some of our biggest companies,” Vance wrote. “Unfortunately, the unholy alliance between government and business won’t stop at the Second Amendment. Eventually, they’ll come for other cherished American liberties, too.”
The next year, Vance questioned whether limiting access to guns would have any effect at all on gun violence, which he said was tied to “inner-city urban crime” and which he said until recently dropped generally over decades during a time when guns became more widely available.
“None of us like the school shootings,” he told Breitbart News. “None of us likes the fact that if you live near a big city, you hear about gun violence nearly every week. So, we have to not take the left’s bait and say, ‘Well, this is going to make us safer at the expense of our Second Amendment rights.’ I don’t think it’s going to do either.”
Concerning other 2A matters, Vance supports right-to-carry reciprocity legislation, opposes gun-confiscation schemes that would strip Americans of their rights without due process (red-flag legislation), opposed bans on AR-style rifles and common standard-capacity magazines that hold more than 10 rounds, opposes universal background checks and supports legislation that would protect veterans’ Second Amendment rights. In fact, his dedication to freedom landed him the full support of the National Rifles Association during his Senate run.
Most recently, Vance created an uproar with remarks he made about a newly proposed bump stock ban in the Senate. Last month, he called the effort by Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and other anti-gun

The rolling thunder of change is taking place. People who never would have watched the Republican Convention are watching because of the attempted assassination of Trump. Might be their own morbid curiosity making them watch but they are. This video has been viewed 3 million times already.

As I noted before, details matter ... unless you're part of the media with a deadline 30 seconds from now. Just a turn of phrase or a swapped word makes a BIG difference.
Evil exists. You can not negotiate with, bribe or placate evil. You're not going to be able to have it sit down with Dr. Phil for an anger management session either.

Sadly that's a "no." It was what she wrote, not what she said.

I think she is just misusing her words. But I think we can appreciate the body of her message and that a Democrat of 50 years has had the light go on. One less vote for Biden. Lets not pick it apart.

Like the lady that came on to speak about her army vet son killed on Streets of NY and Alvin Bragg not charging 2 of 4 perps and light charges for the other 2.
Finally opened her eyes to how Dems take them for granted. Such a powerful speech. A LOT of minorities/otherwise and “traditional “ -Dem voters are getting woken up and not getting woke and seeing reality.

Last night, I should have watched on YouTube. Instead, I turned on the TV and scrolled through the guide until I found the first channel with the RNC (probably ABC). I tuned in just in time to see Sarah Huckabee Sanders' excellent speech.
Next, Dr Ben Carson comes on stage but instead of airing the audio of Dr. Carson's speech the only audio was their talking heads speaking about previous speakers. I tried to change the channel 3 times and either got a commercial or talking heads. The mainstream media sure was hellbent on trying to prevent a conservative African American's excellent speech from getting to voters.
I finally switched to YouTube where I was able to see Marco Rubio's ok/good speech and Lara Trump's excellent speech.

My wife and I are still relics with cable TV, we switched back and forth between Fox News for the commentary and interviews, and CSPAN for uninterrupted broadcast of the convention.
Great convention so far.
