Florida’s junior Senator still wants answers about how a gunman was able to shoot Donald Trump and three others, killing one, at a Pennsylvania rally.
“It is now clear to every American that there were gross failures in leadership of the U.S. Secret Service (USSS), Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and other federal law enforcement agencies that led to the assassination attempt, murder and severe injuries that occurred at this event,” U.S. Sen. Rick Scott wrote Joe Biden.
“It is a miracle that President Trump is alive and well, but absolutely inexcusable that the deranged would-be assassin had a direct line of sight to the former president and the leading candidate for President of the United States.”
Scott wants FBI Director Christopher Wray, USSS Director Kimberly Cheatle and DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas to “hold a daily public press conference to share updates and answer questions from the American people,” and he has a number of questions that should be answered.
Scott wants to know if Trump is getting updates on the investigation, and also wants answers as to whether any of the negligent law enforcement officers were disciplined in the wake of the security breach.
He also wants Cheatle to answer a question he’s posed already this week: “If the buck stops with you, and this has clearly been established as a colossal USSS breakdown and national embarrassment of historic proportion, why haven’t you resigned?”
Other questions follow, including protocols about drones and graded roofs, and these: “Was the Trump campaign made aware of the increase in credible security threats received by the USSS prior to the rally in Butler, Pennsylvania? Why was President Trump allowed to take the stage after USSS and law enforcement on-site identified, but had not yet neutralized, a credible security threat?”
The Senator also wants to know about the size of Trump’s security detail, whether it accords with precedent for candidates and former Presidents, and whether “deviations” from standard operating procedure occurred on Saturday.

Joe Biden wasn’t on the secret service detail. Way to try and capitalize on the near death experience of Orange Hilter. Only in a state like Florida could Fraud Scott get elected. More crooks here than you can shake a stick at with the lower classes having an IQ less than that of an ape to vote so heavily against their own interests.

Mercury, good evening, and thanks for “Weighing In”, but never forget its not “Really News” until Elvis “Weighs In”.
They would not have called Joe, “The Puppett” for permission to allow the poor misguided 20 year old kid to “Take His Shot”.
So in that respect you are correct in your somewhat rambeling non-senseical commentary.
Mercury non the less they did get permission for the kid to take his best shot from “The Puppett Master”.
While I can not reveal the name of “The Puppett Master” I can tell you that his initials are “BHO” and he’s a clean good looking “Communitty Organizer” with a “Nice Crease” in his pants.
Thanks again, Mercury, for “Weighing In”,
This comentary of Sage Wisdom has been brought to you courtsey of The Elvis Pitts American Fan Club’s Poly-Sci Division.
Thanks so much Mercury,

Spinning wheels forever on the why’s and who’s to blame.
Maybe it’s violent television shows, that morphed to violent video games, that morphed to violent and bullying social media to… Heck, the Music Man proclaimed it was the evils of pool halls. This was a 20 year old white middle class kid so screwed up he thought he should execute someone. And then folks like Trump gave access to the weapon to do it. Just like that. Just next door. No migrant hordes. Just a American boy..

Tell Sick Rott that the low performers have to be used somewhere.
The high performers have to be protecting the elected.

The huge uptick in Useful Idiot postings is a pretty clear indicator of how nervous the Lefties truly are.

The MAGA-shill multiposing shows they are edgy about Trump’s supposed cakewalk.
Understandably edgy given 2025 fascism, abortion, contraception, ….

The more the MAGAs try to stifle the discussion on a woman’s right to choose, the greater the number of voters who are paying attention.

No, the former president was shot by a Useful Idiot or an insane fool! The whole nonsense that he was a ‘registered republican’ is a Red Herring. I’m assuming that at your age you do know what that is. Am I right?
Reagan was shot by a jackass to impress Jodi Foster. Not that it’s equivalent to a political assassination attempt, but John Lennon was shot by another depraved loser.
Have you seen the transvestite photos of the kid? How about The one with the gruesome piercings? There is plenty of evidence that he wanted to blend in with the ‘kewl kids’. There is nothing in his chosen lifestyle that actually associates him with the ‘young republicans’. We can be reasonably confident that his voter registration was just another gesture to piss-off his parents (mommy-D & daddy-L).

Sage wisdom Elvis,
SloPoke got a job with a University (which shall remain nameless) and is leading their School Of Political Science under a random psudo “Gringo Name”.
We are making great strides in lineing up hundreds of thousands of Hispanic voters for Trump.
We are back and ready to “FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT” !!!!

The Trump campaign knows that outdoor events are more difficult to control but does them anyway, regardless of expense to local communities. A campaign that was notorious for not paying its bills in 2016 and 2020.
Remember when Republicans preached individual responsibility? Now they are all victims of persecution.

Michael K good evening Son,
While it is so disapointing to have to “Chastize” you for your continued Dook 4 Brains Leftist Commentary I honestly have no choice. Son you have crossed the line too many times and are hereby placed on a 2 week chastizement which includes a full 2 week masturbation ban.
Sorry to have to escalate your punishment by Chastizement Michael K, but your insolance and general “Dookness” leaves me with no other path forward.

Impeach Mayorkas for the second time and fire the head of the Secret Service. That’s what the Pelosi Democrats would do.

The Secret Service is a mess and has been since Obama’s presidency. Too many gung-ho frat boys.

Cheatle exemplifies everything wrong with DEI. You just promote the best person. I am sure that there are some 5’11 women who can be in the Secret Service, but anyone 5’2 is just too small to block a bullet. You just cannot be the best and be 5’2. This was the Secret Service’s plan, no matter who executed it. If the Secret Service had communicated with law enforcement there were many opportunities to protect the former president that were not taken.
