I am grateful for President Trump’s trust in me to lead the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. It’s an honor to serve.
As @DHSgov Secretary, I’m committed to safeguarding the American people and protecting the homeland. I’ll fight for your family just as I’ll fight for mine.
I look forward to standing shoulder to shoulder with the 260,000 outstanding DHS employees and their families to keep our nation safe.
My first priority is to end the partisan fighting and reopen the U.S. Department of Homeland Security as a matter of national security.
Let’s get to work. 🇺🇸
@theobserver Sad that when he finally grew a spine, he no longer is in public service. The Republican party is TOXIC. You have to have no scruples or no brain to still belong.
Remember when folk like this were recognised at the pub as the village idiot banging on about crop circles and big foot.
They have multiplied like wet gremlins because of social media.
@JBThinkin and why is there proof of all agents laughing at one point
of course it's staged..like the second one, like McDonalds...everything is a lie, phony...like the orange convicted felon..
STAGED Assassination attempt question #605: Were the so called "Secret Service" agents in on the plan?
I have posted before about how the shooter was able to get into position after being recognized by the Secret Service and local law enforcement as a suspicious person carrying a range finder and positioning himself on a roof directly in view of a Secret Service observation post after visibly walking across the roof. But there are many other ODD behaviors and maneuvers (or lack thereof) by the SS that raise A LOT of suspicion.
The Butler rally was the FIRST TIME that the Secret Service had sent a counter-sniper team to a trump rally. Why would the Secret Service pick a relatively tiny trump rally in Butler, Pennsylvania (a trump friendly stronghold), to deploy a counter-sniper team for the first time? Also, the Secret Service had its OWN command post and communications ISOLATED from local law enforcement. This makes no sense if you are trying to keep trump safe, but it makes perfect sense if you were STAGING an event.
Additionally strange is the fact that acting Secret Service Director Ronald Rowe admitted in Congressional testimony that they DELETED their radio traffic after the event. The local police kept their recordings, but the Secret Service didn’t think they should keep theirs. HUH??
A source close with law enforcement in the area stated that local Sheriff Michael Slupe was instructed to ‘stand down’ and not send extra manpower and SWAT teams to the rally site in advance of the trumps appearance in Butler. This was allegedly done over the objections of Sheriff Slupe. Clearly and purposefully limiting the amount of security around the grounds.
Let's not forget (I have posted about before) the fact that the Secret Service agents stopped to allow Trump to engage in a little “political theatre” fist pump in the middle of an alleged assassination attempt. Just another fact pointing to this event being a planned and rehearsed.
A so called "Independent Panel" review revealed that site agent ASSIGNED BY THE TRUMP DETAIL to coordinate with the Pittsburgh field office to conduct site advance work and site security planning for the Butler rally, only graduated from the Service’s academy in 2020, had only been on the trumps detail since 2023, and had engaged in MINIMAL previous site advance work or site security planning and certainly nothing to the level of the Butler rally. If you are going to send a full counter-sniper team, wouldn't you also assign someone with EXTENSIVE experience to plan and coordinate?
Instead, the SS NEVER established line-of-sight blockades, NEVER secured the group of buildings the shooter accessed and NEVER responded to reports of the shooter as a suspicious person over an hour before shots were fired along with a myriad of other failures.
I don't believe ALL of this were simply a series of GROSS misconduct or agent inexperience, but rather a concerted effort by a handful of CORRUPTED agents within the trump detail and on the take to orchestrate one of the BIGGEST frauds in American Policitcal History!
It’s official — our new Secretary of @DHSgov is confirmed!
I have full faith he will keep our country safe — he’s the right man for the job.
Congratulations, @SenMullin!
🚨BREAKING : In a jaw-dropping interview, President Trump stunned Americans with a bombshell fact: "If we captured 50% of the fraud in this country right now, we'd have better than a balanced budget. Minnesota and these other states, we have massive investigations going into fraud."
@mattyglesias I remember Wed at the PO. You would not believe how many people received the TV Guide! And they were thick. God forbid if they came late because the customers would blame YOU!
Large swathes of the newspaper used to be dedicated to telling you which shows were going to be on television at which times. There was also an entire magazine about this that people subscribed to.
@texasrunnerDFW I have always thought this when someone said, "I only paid $300k for my house" or "30k for my car". No you didn't, when you add up the total cost it is FAR MORE than they claim.
On a $400,000 loan with an interest rate of 6.5% over 30 years, you will pay a total of $510,177.95 in interest
You will pay more in interest than the purchase price of the home
The first 3 years you live there, you’re just paying the bank
Buy carefully, my friends
FUCK YOU @AmericanAir@aairwaves they are saying this is a scratch and its not covered. After I asked at the airport for them look are now saying I have to drive 80 miles back to have it looked at after they denied looking at it. A $565 case and a $3000 bass.
The US removes sanctions on Iranian oil that has been sitting on tankers as the Trump administration looks for any leverage to keep oil prices in check. cnn.it/47yWANx
Everyone says “AI will take all the jobs.”
If that happens… how does this future actually work?
No jobs → no income → no spending.
So who buys things? Who pays rent? Who keeps the economy moving?
What am I missing here?
