So, I was wrong. That very rarely happens. You can ask either of my ex-wives.

I imagine there are countless leftists feeling like her today.

I thought the tenor at the RNC did a very nice job of that tough aria, even with that interpolated last word!

As for the above operawire.com article, the writer of it is a political leftist ass!

That dumb bitch, who I never heard of until this week, is trying to say that white suburban housewives will determine the election because of abortion

Abortion is way down the list, and Trump has sold his brand on blacks, hispanics, union workers, young Gen X, etc. all based on the shitty economy and the illegal invaders. And Democrat "white suburban housewives" who care about abortion will NEVER vote Trump, no matter what. And many "white suburban housewives" live outside CA or NY and are pro life.

^^^

Maybe the only 'white suburban housewives' she knows are the ones who get to sell the pieces.

first Trump visited Virginia, now JD Vance is coming to Radford University on Monday

Sounds like they are serious

It's been a bit of a busy week ...

I love that opera. Maccio is a great singer but Pavarotti was on a different level.

The Latest from the WSJ, there was a drone there.

Drumroll.... but it was the shooter scoping out the protection. Unbelievable.

There’s an airport on the Butler Farm Show grounds. Wouldn’t that make flying recreational drones there illegal? The Secret Service probably couldn’t get the required FAA waiver.

Pay wall.

Trump Gunman Flew Drone Over Rally Site Hours Before Attempted Assassination
Link that Citizen Free Press has.

A gunman who tried to kill Donald Trump was able to fly a drone and get aerial footage of the western Pennsylvania fairgrounds shortly before the former president was set to speak there, law-enforcement officials briefed on the matter said, further underscoring the stunning security lapses ahead of Trump’s near assassination.

Thomas Matthew Crooks flew the drone on a programmed flight path earlier in the day on July 13 to scour the Butler Farm Show grounds ahead of Trump’s ill-fated rally, the officials said. The predetermined path, the officials added, suggests Crooks flew the drone more than once as he researched and scoped out the event site.

The use of the drone was just one way in which authorities have said Crooks planned his attack. Crooks, described by friends as very smart yet withdrawn, began researching the site shortly after the Trump campaign announced the rally on July 3, and registered for the event on July 7, officials said. He visited the farm show grounds a few days later to scope it out.

I'm waiting for the pictures of the Secret Service helping him carry the ladder to the building. The farce would be complete.

@trapper189

There is a mechanism in place to get authorization to fly a drone on or near an airport.
LAANC System

The problem with the story though is there should have been a TFR in place. So if the story about the drone is true he must have flown it before the TFR took effect.

I posted earlier in the week that ex-agent Dan Bongino was told by his contacts in the SS that only three of the agents guarding Trump were Secret Service, all others were personnel from Homeland Security.

I take Bongino's opinion with a grain of salt however, this story may be gaining some legs and helping to support the belief of willful knee-capping of resources and minimizing of priorities by USSS & DHS upper-management.

So when we hear on tape “what do we do?” “What do we do?” We hear it because they weren’t USSS. They were homeland security or someone else. Sure they were dressed up like USSS but they weren’t. Otherwise their USSS training would have kicked in and they would done what they were trained to do and wouldn’t have had to ask “What do we do?”

It’s why they ran around in circles looking like they didn’t know what to do. Truth likely is…they didn’t. They’d never done it before in training.

That’s why they can’t reholster their guns. That’s why they adjust their sunglasses…They were rent-a-cops from another department.

Fucking tools were trying to get him killed.

^^^It's my understanding that the "what do we do" came from the female SS agent that's not part of the protection detail. I'm not sure, so correct me if someone knows, do all SS agents go through protective detail training?

That airport is an uncontrolled field, in Class G airspace. Without a TFR in place (and hoping that DJI geofences the TFR area so that you can’t fly) … pretty much anybody could fly a drone there.
The question is - why was there no counter-drone measures in place? Oddly enough, DJI makes one of the better systems used by law enforcement.
