00:00:19.920 --> 00:00:25.160
July thirteenth, twenty twenty four, Tens of thousands show up

2
00:00:25.199 --> 00:00:28.320
to hear Donald Trump speak at a rally in Butler,

3
00:00:28.640 --> 00:00:39.039
Pennsylvania at six pm. Trump takes the stage to deliver

4
00:00:39.119 --> 00:00:47.479
a speech as the crowd explodes in cheer. Behind the scenes,

5
00:00:47.799 --> 00:00:51.719
secret services desperately searching for a young man they lost

6
00:00:51.799 --> 00:00:55.200
track of that was now perceived by law enforcement as

7
00:00:55.240 --> 00:01:04.359
a possible threat. Twelve minutes later, shots ring out, the

8
00:01:04.400 --> 00:01:08.000
former president is hit in ducks behind the podium. The

9
00:01:08.079 --> 00:01:12.920
strong maga crowd does not move as expected and stays

10
00:01:12.959 --> 00:01:20.799
put in the ultimate show of strength. Suddenly Trump has

11
00:01:20.840 --> 00:01:24.040
helped to his feet and, in an act of ultimate

12
00:01:24.120 --> 00:01:28.359
defiance to the would be assassin or assassins, raises his

13
00:01:28.560 --> 00:01:39.519
fist in the air while screaming fight, Fight, Fight. Welcome

14
00:01:39.560 --> 00:01:45.519
to Exposed Scandalous Files of the Elite. Becoming forty seven.

15
00:01:59.760 --> 00:02:03.920
Welcome back to expose scandalous files of the elite. I

16
00:02:03.959 --> 00:02:08.879
am your host, Jim Chapman, and look, before we jump

17
00:02:09.039 --> 00:02:15.400
into today's episode and the start of our series regarding

18
00:02:15.479 --> 00:02:20.120
the assassination attempt on Donald Trump, I want to shout

19
00:02:20.120 --> 00:02:25.520
out a few of our newest global celebrity members on Patreon,

20
00:02:25.680 --> 00:02:28.520
and it's important to mention these people support what we

21
00:02:28.639 --> 00:02:34.120
do here. There is nothing cheap about podcasting at this level,

22
00:02:34.319 --> 00:02:37.759
and these people make it possible. We have some new ones.

23
00:02:37.800 --> 00:02:39.960
If I said your name in a prior episode, I'm

24
00:02:40.000 --> 00:02:42.240
going to say it again because it's been such a

25
00:02:42.280 --> 00:02:46.159
busy week with the scandals that have come out that

26
00:02:46.280 --> 00:02:48.919
I want to make sure I don't miss anybody. So

27
00:02:49.000 --> 00:02:53.360
Miss Chryl am Red, thank you so much for your support.

28
00:02:53.919 --> 00:02:56.520
And look, y'all, Miss Reid supports a lot of different

29
00:02:56.560 --> 00:03:00.680
things we do. Actually met her before and she is

30
00:03:00.719 --> 00:03:05.039
an amazing individual. Her and her family traveled many, many

31
00:03:05.120 --> 00:03:08.199
hours to come to New Orleans, Louisiana, and on the

32
00:03:08.240 --> 00:03:11.039
way they stopped and said hello to me here at

33
00:03:11.080 --> 00:03:14.759
the studio. So thank you so much, Miss Chryl, for

34
00:03:15.319 --> 00:03:19.719
becoming a member of our Global Celebrity team. I also

35
00:03:19.800 --> 00:03:24.759
want to shout out Miss Dina Mendoza, Thank you so much.

36
00:03:25.280 --> 00:03:30.599
I really appreciate your support. Megan Haley another big time

37
00:03:30.599 --> 00:03:35.520
supporter of ours. Thank you so much. Miss Michelle Carter,

38
00:03:36.199 --> 00:03:40.919
thank you so much for joining the Global Celebrity tier

39
00:03:41.159 --> 00:03:46.199
on Patreon. And hopefully I didn't miss anybody. Much love,

40
00:03:46.560 --> 00:03:49.000
to all of you. We couldn't do it without you,

41
00:03:49.080 --> 00:03:52.159
and even our lower tier Patreons. We may not shout

42
00:03:52.199 --> 00:03:54.240
you out here on the show. That's a benefit for

43
00:03:54.319 --> 00:03:57.240
the global celebrities. But I love each and every one

44
00:03:57.240 --> 00:03:59.879
of you, and even if you can't be a supporter

45
00:04:00.199 --> 00:04:04.120
for whatever reason, we get it. We understand just sharing

46
00:04:04.199 --> 00:04:07.759
the show helps us out a lot. So let's jump

47
00:04:07.879 --> 00:04:11.080
right into it. And I've done a couple of episodes

48
00:04:11.159 --> 00:04:15.000
so far. One I did just last week that we

49
00:04:15.120 --> 00:04:19.399
released as a bonus episode for Patreon members only, and

50
00:04:19.439 --> 00:04:23.120
that was with miss Kelly Jennings, who is an absolute

51
00:04:23.240 --> 00:04:27.959
expert on all things criminal justice. She came in and

52
00:04:28.000 --> 00:04:31.839
we discussed some breaking news in the Trump case. And

53
00:04:32.000 --> 00:04:36.439
just prior to that, I released the very first emergency

54
00:04:36.480 --> 00:04:41.160
episode that I've released on Exposed and it has gotten

55
00:04:41.560 --> 00:04:44.720
just a ton of play. So go check those out

56
00:04:45.040 --> 00:04:47.639
if you haven't already done so. And we're going to

57
00:04:47.759 --> 00:04:52.879
jump right into this one. So on Monday the twenty second,

58
00:04:53.480 --> 00:04:57.720
we finally got to hear from the Director of the

59
00:04:57.879 --> 00:05:01.959
Secret Service, Kimberly Cheetle, and it's important to note that

60
00:05:02.000 --> 00:05:08.920
she was under subpoena to attend this committee hearing, she

61
00:05:09.040 --> 00:05:13.399
basically had to be forced. Now, she eludes several times

62
00:05:13.439 --> 00:05:16.560
in this hearing that she wanted to be transparent. Hey

63
00:05:16.680 --> 00:05:20.240
I'm here, and the fact that I'm here means I'm

64
00:05:20.279 --> 00:05:25.000
being transparent. Well, I submit to you that the fact

65
00:05:25.079 --> 00:05:28.279
that she had to be subpoened to even attend is

66
00:05:28.639 --> 00:05:34.319
proof that she was attempting to not be transparent. And sadly,

67
00:05:34.680 --> 00:05:39.439
on this day we didn't really learn much. She just

68
00:05:39.480 --> 00:05:42.879
didn't answer many questions. She was, as a matter of fact,

69
00:05:43.079 --> 00:05:45.839
very evasive. So we're going to cover that, and I'm

70
00:05:45.879 --> 00:05:49.040
gonna play you several clips and they're going to paint

71
00:05:49.040 --> 00:05:53.000
a picture of what that hearing sounded like. So we're

72
00:05:53.000 --> 00:05:56.920
going to start with someone that is quite frankly, someone

73
00:05:57.319 --> 00:06:02.360
I'm surprised I'm even about to talk about much less compliment.

74
00:06:03.040 --> 00:06:06.639
I'm not a fan of AOC and in reality, I'm

75
00:06:06.879 --> 00:06:09.399
just the opposite. But I have to give her props

76
00:06:09.439 --> 00:06:12.920
and we'll talk about my thoughts on why she was

77
00:06:12.959 --> 00:06:18.120
so well opposite of what you would think considering her party.

78
00:06:19.079 --> 00:06:23.680
When it came to questioning director Cheatle and I've got

79
00:06:23.680 --> 00:06:27.800
to give credit where credits do, right, she challenged the director,

80
00:06:28.199 --> 00:06:32.199
so here's a clip of AOC questioning the Director of

81
00:06:32.240 --> 00:06:38.360
the Secret Service, Kimberly Cheatle, regarding the attempted assassination of

82
00:06:38.519 --> 00:06:40.879
former President Donald Trump.

83
00:06:41.240 --> 00:06:45.160
Director Cheatle, respectfully, what you had just laid out about

84
00:06:45.199 --> 00:06:49.920
sixty days. We are currently in the midst of a

85
00:06:52.240 --> 00:06:58.879
of an especially concentrated presidential campaign in the moment that

86
00:06:59.040 --> 00:07:02.279
is also paired with, of course, elections happening across the

87
00:07:02.319 --> 00:07:06.040
country that are happening in about one hundred days. So

88
00:07:06.079 --> 00:07:09.480
the notion of a report coming out in sixty days

89
00:07:09.959 --> 00:07:13.399
when the threat environment is so high in the United States,

90
00:07:13.639 --> 00:07:17.360
irrespective of party, is not acceptable. And I think it's

91
00:07:17.519 --> 00:07:20.920
very important to understand that this is not theater. This

92
00:07:21.000 --> 00:07:24.560
is not about jockeying. This is about the safety of

93
00:07:24.600 --> 00:07:31.319
some of the most highly targeted and valued targets internationally

94
00:07:31.399 --> 00:07:35.160
and domestically in the United States of America. So the

95
00:07:35.240 --> 00:07:38.199
idea that a report will be finalized in sixty days,

96
00:07:38.240 --> 00:07:43.839
let alone prior to any actionable decisions that would be made,

97
00:07:44.000 --> 00:07:48.920
is simply not acceptable. It has been ten days since

98
00:07:48.959 --> 00:07:52.199
an assassination attempt on a former president of the United States,

99
00:07:52.519 --> 00:07:57.839
regardless of party. There need to be answers again, party

100
00:07:58.040 --> 00:08:00.639
this committee. This is not a moment to theater. We

101
00:08:00.759 --> 00:08:03.560
have to make policy decisions, and we have to make

102
00:08:03.600 --> 00:08:08.360
them now we do and that may be that may

103
00:08:08.439 --> 00:08:12.399
require legislation, that may require policy that we must pass

104
00:08:12.480 --> 00:08:18.399
the immediate term, and without that we are flying blind.

105
00:08:19.240 --> 00:08:21.519
So the lack of answers and the lack of report

106
00:08:21.600 --> 00:08:23.879
is just simply not something that we can accept here,

107
00:08:25.959 --> 00:08:29.439
Director Cheetle. Is there a standard perimeter that the Secret

108
00:08:29.480 --> 00:08:34.559
Service establishes around an event or are those perimeters independently

109
00:08:34.600 --> 00:08:36.480
determined per event and scenario.

110
00:08:37.000 --> 00:08:41.000
There is no standard. Every event and every venue is

111
00:08:41.360 --> 00:08:42.840
different and treated as such.

112
00:08:43.360 --> 00:08:47.840
So each event has a different perimeter that is established

113
00:08:47.879 --> 00:08:52.519
depending on the logistics of that event. Now, you established

114
00:08:52.559 --> 00:08:57.600
earlier that the building upon which the shooter operated from

115
00:08:58.000 --> 00:09:01.679
was outside of that established perimeter. Correct, for the Butler

116
00:09:01.799 --> 00:09:03.000
Pennsylvania event.

117
00:09:03.399 --> 00:09:06.559
It was outside of our secure perimeter. Yes, Now, that.

118
00:09:08.360 --> 00:09:12.440
Building was I believe five hundred How far away was

119
00:09:12.480 --> 00:09:14.480
that building from the president.

120
00:09:15.559 --> 00:09:18.240
It was approximately two hundred yards two hundred yards.

121
00:09:18.320 --> 00:09:29.519
Now, the individual used in AR fifteen in order to

122
00:09:29.559 --> 00:09:33.440
act out his assassination attempt. AR fifteen has a range

123
00:09:33.480 --> 00:09:38.679
of about four to six hundred yards. My question is

124
00:09:39.039 --> 00:09:43.840
why does the Secret Service perimeter Why is the Secret

125
00:09:43.840 --> 00:09:48.799
Service protective perimeter shorter than one of the most popular

126
00:09:49.159 --> 00:09:51.039
semi automatic weapons in the United States.

127
00:09:53.639 --> 00:09:56.519
There are a number of weapons out there with a

128
00:09:56.600 --> 00:10:01.559
number of ranges. Again, an advance was completed the determination

129
00:10:01.639 --> 00:10:03.799
of the perimeter. I'm not going to speak to specifics,

130
00:10:03.799 --> 00:10:05.960
but there are a number of factors that are taken

131
00:10:06.360 --> 00:10:09.600
into account when we determine our perimeter. Some of it

132
00:10:09.639 --> 00:10:11.120
has to do with terrain, some of it has to

133
00:10:11.120 --> 00:10:12.720
do with buildings, some of it has to do with

134
00:10:12.840 --> 00:10:15.559
assets and resources that are available.

135
00:10:15.919 --> 00:10:20.720
And so what I'm hearing is that a perimeter was

136
00:10:20.840 --> 00:10:26.840
not established outdoors in an outdoor venue that would prevent

137
00:10:27.159 --> 00:10:29.159
an AR fifteen, which is one of the most common

138
00:10:29.240 --> 00:10:34.000
weapons used in mass shootings, from being able to be

139
00:10:34.039 --> 00:10:35.679
within the range of Secret Service protection.

140
00:10:36.720 --> 00:10:40.159
A perimeter was established, and even though there were buildings

141
00:10:40.200 --> 00:10:43.000
that were outside of that perimeter, it wasn't just that building.

142
00:10:43.080 --> 00:10:45.879
There were a number of buildings in the area and

143
00:10:45.919 --> 00:10:50.080
there was overwatch that was created to help mitigate some

144
00:10:50.200 --> 00:10:51.240
of those buildings.

145
00:10:53.159 --> 00:10:56.799
Respectfully, doctor Cheatle, as well as a person who has

146
00:10:56.879 --> 00:11:02.720
experienced an enormous amount of threat incidents including incidents that

147
00:11:02.720 --> 00:11:11.799
have never been reported publicly. There's a common pattern that

148
00:11:11.879 --> 00:11:16.519
happens here, whether it's Secret Service, FBI, Capitol police, local departments.

149
00:11:17.080 --> 00:11:20.399
After a critical security failure, we often hear there will

150
00:11:20.399 --> 00:11:24.480
be an independent investigation. That independent investigation gets set up.

151
00:11:24.879 --> 00:11:27.480
Usually the expectation is between two to three months after

152
00:11:27.519 --> 00:11:32.000
the incident, and then nothing really occurs from there. The

153
00:11:32.200 --> 00:11:35.120
report is usually not satisfactory to the questions that are

154
00:11:35.159 --> 00:11:40.200
usually being raised here, and most importantly, corrective action is

155
00:11:40.320 --> 00:11:46.679
rarely taken. If I were to state anything that I

156
00:11:46.679 --> 00:11:48.919
think is profoundly important is that we need to have

157
00:11:49.039 --> 00:11:55.759
answers to the public. Ideally, I would encourage you and

158
00:11:55.879 --> 00:11:58.440
the agency to be more forthright with the members that

159
00:11:58.559 --> 00:12:02.480
still have yet to have their questioning, because the public

160
00:12:02.960 --> 00:12:06.879
deserves to have full confidence and the stakes are too high.

161
00:12:07.399 --> 00:12:10.679
The violence that could break out in this political moment,

162
00:12:10.720 --> 00:12:15.080
regardless of party, in the event of someone getting hurt,

163
00:12:15.639 --> 00:12:19.440
constitutes a national security threat to the entire country. Thank you,

164
00:12:19.440 --> 00:12:20.080
and iiled back.

165
00:12:20.159 --> 00:12:22.600
Could I go back to something y yes, Please feel free,

166
00:12:22.600 --> 00:12:23.240
Director ma'am.

167
00:12:23.480 --> 00:12:25.360
If I could just speak to something you said at

168
00:12:25.399 --> 00:12:29.159
the outset when you started your questioning, I want to

169
00:12:29.200 --> 00:12:31.799
assure you and everyone on this committee that I'm not

170
00:12:31.919 --> 00:12:35.559
waiting for a report to take action. We have been

171
00:12:35.600 --> 00:12:40.960
conducting analysis all along, and we have been adding additional

172
00:12:41.000 --> 00:12:47.399
features to our security details since this incident occurred.

173
00:12:46.399 --> 00:12:49.320
And i'd hope you can highlight and eliminate what some

174
00:12:49.360 --> 00:12:52.440
of those are in the event of other members questioning

175
00:12:52.480 --> 00:12:52.799
as well.

176
00:12:53.279 --> 00:13:00.440
Now, the fact is AOC nailed it. But why all

177
00:13:00.440 --> 00:13:04.759
of a sudden does she come to essentially the country's defense,

178
00:13:04.919 --> 00:13:10.440
and honestly, even Trump's defense. She's not exactly known for that.

179
00:13:11.000 --> 00:13:16.639
She's certainly not a Trump fan. Well, I think AOC,

180
00:13:17.120 --> 00:13:24.039
after this incident, has suddenly figured it out. Let's unpack this. Now,

181
00:13:24.039 --> 00:13:30.480
there's a certain thing in politics known as establishment politicians.

182
00:13:31.559 --> 00:13:34.960
Let's start on the Republican side of that. Who would

183
00:13:34.960 --> 00:13:39.240
you consider an establishment Republican? Off the top of my head,

184
00:13:39.600 --> 00:13:42.720
Chris Christy comes to mind, he'd be a good example

185
00:13:42.759 --> 00:13:46.480
of that. What about Ron de Santis, Well, I would

186
00:13:46.519 --> 00:13:50.759
say he's kind of a hybrid. He's in between establishment

187
00:13:50.879 --> 00:13:54.360
and anti establishment, kind of in the middle. And on

188
00:13:54.399 --> 00:13:59.320
the democratic side you have let's say Barack Obama definitely

189
00:13:59.360 --> 00:14:05.480
an establishish Democrat, probably the establishment right Kamala Harris another

190
00:14:05.840 --> 00:14:12.159
establishment democrat, But what about AOC. She's definitely not an

191
00:14:12.320 --> 00:14:17.120
establishment democrat. She doesn't say everything they want her to say.

192
00:14:17.559 --> 00:14:22.080
She doesn't necessarily bow down to that establishment. She would

193
00:14:22.080 --> 00:14:27.799
be really the democratic sides version of what Trump is

194
00:14:27.879 --> 00:14:35.480
looked at by establishment Republicans. She's really the anti establishment democrat,

195
00:14:36.600 --> 00:14:39.879
more of a socialist like Ernie Sanders. So would not

196
00:14:40.120 --> 00:14:45.039
surprise me that when she saw this incident that happened

197
00:14:45.039 --> 00:14:48.519
to Donald Trump, somewhere in the back of her mind

198
00:14:49.519 --> 00:14:53.320
she's probably thinking this could happen to me, and that,

199
00:14:53.799 --> 00:14:56.720
I submit to you, is why she is so passionate

200
00:14:56.840 --> 00:15:00.559
about the fact that this has happened in how horrible

201
00:15:00.639 --> 00:15:04.240
it is not only from a violent standpoint, but also

202
00:15:04.480 --> 00:15:09.759
from a government standpoint. Now, Director Cheatle, she's being evasive

203
00:15:09.840 --> 00:15:12.600
to pretty much everyone who asked her questions. Didn't matter

204
00:15:12.679 --> 00:15:15.679
who you were, what party you were in, and there

205
00:15:15.679 --> 00:15:20.279
were points during this hearing where the chamber actually erupted

206
00:15:20.440 --> 00:15:24.440
in laughter after some of her answers. This next clip,

207
00:15:24.480 --> 00:15:27.639
I'm going to play you. It features questions by definitely

208
00:15:27.679 --> 00:15:33.960
an anti establishment Republican known in political circles as MTG

209
00:15:34.960 --> 00:15:42.159
Marjorie Taylor Green in MTG in only MTG's style, ask

210
00:15:42.279 --> 00:15:46.759
her some pretty direct and poignant questions and just listen

211
00:15:46.799 --> 00:15:52.679
to this. Listen to how ridiculous the answers were from

212
00:15:52.759 --> 00:15:56.559
director Kimberly Cheatle, and here's that clip.

213
00:15:56.799 --> 00:15:58.799
I'm miss Cheadle. I'd like to remind you that you're

214
00:15:58.879 --> 00:16:04.039
under oath. The site team has a senior supervisor, an

215
00:16:04.039 --> 00:16:08.559
advanced team, a protective intelligence team, a counter sniper element,

216
00:16:08.720 --> 00:16:12.519
and detail who was the agent in charge? How long

217
00:16:12.679 --> 00:16:15.039
has she been the agent in charge? And what is

218
00:16:15.080 --> 00:16:17.679
her secret service background?

219
00:16:19.639 --> 00:16:22.159
So I'm not going to provide a name. Why not?

220
00:16:22.759 --> 00:16:25.399
You're here to answer our questions Forum, I'm not going

221
00:16:25.440 --> 00:16:28.799
to provide names of you. Stated in your testimony, you

222
00:16:28.960 --> 00:16:33.200
said I am here today to answer your questions. That

223
00:16:33.360 --> 00:16:36.960
is correct answer the question. I'm not going to provide

224
00:16:37.159 --> 00:16:38.720
names of our personnel.

225
00:16:40.120 --> 00:16:41.399
Why not today?

226
00:16:41.559 --> 00:16:44.559
The American people are demanding these answers from you today,

227
00:16:44.600 --> 00:16:45.200
Miss Cheetle.

228
00:16:45.879 --> 00:16:49.080
I will do the best to provide you accurate information

229
00:16:49.200 --> 00:16:50.440
based on the facts that I have.

230
00:16:50.519 --> 00:16:53.279
At this time, you're not answering our questions.

231
00:16:53.919 --> 00:16:57.600
The Advanced Element coordinates with other inteller law enforcement partners,

232
00:16:57.639 --> 00:17:01.320
identifies threats and weaknesses at the site and movements. We

233
00:17:01.559 --> 00:17:03.679
like a copy of the advanced report. Have you brought

234
00:17:03.679 --> 00:17:04.680
it here with you today?

235
00:17:05.000 --> 00:17:07.960
We will comply with the request for the documentation that

236
00:17:08.039 --> 00:17:08.880
has been requested.

237
00:17:08.920 --> 00:17:11.240
When will that be mischeetle because you should have brought

238
00:17:11.240 --> 00:17:11.720
it today.

239
00:17:12.039 --> 00:17:15.799
I am certain that our personnel are working on obtaining

240
00:17:15.839 --> 00:17:17.119
all of that document.

241
00:17:16.759 --> 00:17:19.200
I don't believe you, and neither do the people watching

242
00:17:19.279 --> 00:17:24.319
this hearing. You're not doing well, as mister Moskowitz informed you.

243
00:17:24.319 --> 00:17:27.000
You have been sitting here for over three hours, and

244
00:17:27.039 --> 00:17:30.240
I have you know the entire country is demanding you

245
00:17:30.400 --> 00:17:33.799
resign and demanding that you be fired. If you do

246
00:17:33.920 --> 00:17:36.519
not resign, things are not going well for you. You need

247
00:17:36.519 --> 00:17:40.799
to answer the questions. Was there a protective intelligence team

248
00:17:40.839 --> 00:17:45.119
and what technical resources were utilized for that event, specifically

249
00:17:45.240 --> 00:17:46.920
drone or helicopter assets.

250
00:17:48.359 --> 00:17:51.400
There were a number of technical assets that were deployed

251
00:17:51.440 --> 00:17:55.039
for that event, and there was a protective intelligence team

252
00:17:55.079 --> 00:17:56.400
that was assigned to that event.

253
00:17:56.720 --> 00:18:00.799
Why was Crooks able to fly a drone over the

254
00:18:00.960 --> 00:18:03.759
entire area of the day of the rally.

255
00:18:03.559 --> 00:18:05.640
And the day of his assassination attempt?

256
00:18:06.359 --> 00:18:08.880
To my knowledge, he did not fly the drone over

257
00:18:09.039 --> 00:18:09.960
the entire area.

258
00:18:10.160 --> 00:18:12.240
How did he fly a drone over the area period?

259
00:18:12.359 --> 00:18:13.359
Any part of the area.

260
00:18:14.119 --> 00:18:15.920
Again, I would have to go back and check the

261
00:18:15.960 --> 00:18:18.400
timeline of when that took place and when the event.

262
00:18:18.440 --> 00:18:20.519
Why didn't you bring the timeline with you today to

263
00:18:20.559 --> 00:18:21.599
answer our questions?

264
00:18:21.920 --> 00:18:24.920
I don't have all of the answers on the timelines

265
00:18:24.960 --> 00:18:26.519
based on the criminal investors.

266
00:18:26.599 --> 00:18:30.160
Were you not prepared today to answer our questions?

267
00:18:30.680 --> 00:18:33.000
I am prepared to answer the questions based on the

268
00:18:33.039 --> 00:18:35.200
information and wanted.

269
00:18:34.920 --> 00:18:36.799
To be able to provide do you have a timeline

270
00:18:36.880 --> 00:18:39.880
that you do you have a timeline at all from

271
00:18:39.960 --> 00:18:40.640
any of the day.

272
00:18:42.319 --> 00:18:46.160
I have a timeline that does not have specifics.

273
00:18:47.519 --> 00:18:52.599
That's shocking, that is absolutely unacceptable.

274
00:18:53.160 --> 00:18:55.480
That means you are a failure at your job.

275
00:18:56.400 --> 00:18:58.920
Let's talk about things that are prohibited in Trump rallies,

276
00:18:58.920 --> 00:19:09.559
and I've been to a lot of Trumps. Backpacks and bags, bicycles, firearms, uh,

277
00:19:09.839 --> 00:19:13.279
any type of weapon or any other item determined to

278
00:19:13.359 --> 00:19:17.000
be a potential safety hazard, like a range a range

279
00:19:17.079 --> 00:19:18.000
finder would be one.

280
00:19:18.559 --> 00:19:19.440
UH at five.

281
00:19:19.400 --> 00:19:22.039
Ten Crooks is first observed by one of the snipers

282
00:19:22.079 --> 00:19:25.920
AGR Sniper one as the building five ten five to

283
00:19:25.960 --> 00:19:29.240
ten President shot President Trump was shot in the face.

284
00:19:29.279 --> 00:19:30.920
At six eleven pm.

285
00:19:32.519 --> 00:19:35.440
Five twenty eight, AHGR Sniper one takes a picture of

286
00:19:35.480 --> 00:19:39.119
a bicycle and two bags those belonged to crooks.

287
00:19:40.440 --> 00:19:41.240
Five point thirty two.

288
00:19:42.000 --> 00:19:44.640
HR Sniper one spots crooks looking at his phone and

289
00:19:44.720 --> 00:19:50.720
using a range finder five point fifty five Butler ESU

290
00:19:50.799 --> 00:19:54.160
command confirms receipt of photos and states they have been

291
00:19:54.480 --> 00:19:58.920
relayed on six oh five pm. AhR Sniper one later

292
00:19:59.000 --> 00:20:03.319
communicates that is seen moving northeast in direction of sheets and.

293
00:20:03.279 --> 00:20:04.880
The crooks has a backpack.

294
00:20:06.599 --> 00:20:11.920
Two minutes before the shooting, while President Trump has been

295
00:20:11.960 --> 00:20:16.680
allowed to take the stage, people see crooks laying on

296
00:20:16.799 --> 00:20:19.920
his stomach in a sniper position on the roof and

297
00:20:19.960 --> 00:20:22.839
they're yelling he has a gun and they are trying

298
00:20:22.880 --> 00:20:29.559
to alert law enforcement in secret Service. Why was crooks

299
00:20:29.599 --> 00:20:32.200
not shot by a snooper by the snipers?

300
00:20:32.839 --> 00:20:34.519
Why was he allowed to be there.

301
00:20:35.880 --> 00:20:39.480
As soon as the individual was identified as a threat.

302
00:20:40.079 --> 00:20:40.720
No, no, no, no, no.

303
00:20:41.200 --> 00:20:42.839
What do you consider to be a threat?

304
00:20:42.880 --> 00:20:45.599
A man with a gun laying in a sniper position,

305
00:20:45.920 --> 00:20:48.279
A man that had a backpack, a man that had

306
00:20:48.279 --> 00:20:51.240
a bicycle, a man that had a rangefinder.

307
00:20:51.880 --> 00:20:55.039
At what point is he determined a threat.

308
00:20:56.799 --> 00:21:00.559
An individual with a backpack is not a threat. An

309
00:21:00.599 --> 00:21:03.240
individual with a rangefinder is not a threat.

310
00:21:03.920 --> 00:21:07.359
What about a man laying on a building that has

311
00:21:07.519 --> 00:21:11.160
direct line of sight of President Trump with a gun

312
00:21:11.599 --> 00:21:14.160
that people are screaming and pointing out?

313
00:21:14.200 --> 00:21:14.920
Is that a threat?

314
00:21:15.480 --> 00:21:20.519
Miss Cheatle, Once that an individual was identified, they were neutralized.

315
00:21:21.119 --> 00:21:25.119
No, they were neutralized. Krooks was neutralized after he shot

316
00:21:25.200 --> 00:21:29.400
President Trump in the face, Miss Cheatle, Is he only

317
00:21:29.440 --> 00:21:31.240
a threat once he fires the weapon?

318
00:21:33.319 --> 00:21:37.039
As soon as the counter sniper identified that individual, they

319
00:21:37.039 --> 00:21:38.359
were able to neutralize them.

320
00:21:38.480 --> 00:21:41.200
How were people in the crowd? Okay, then let's just

321
00:21:41.279 --> 00:21:43.720
take it this way. People under your command did not

322
00:21:43.880 --> 00:21:46.279
consider him to be a threat, yet people in the

323
00:21:46.359 --> 00:21:49.359
crowd knew he had a gun and considered him to

324
00:21:49.400 --> 00:21:52.440
be a threat. That means that you are a complete

325
00:21:52.880 --> 00:21:56.599
failure as the director of the Secret Service. That people

326
00:21:56.720 --> 00:22:00.240
under your command don't perceive a man laying on a

327
00:22:00.359 --> 00:22:03.440
roof with direct line to the president with a gun.

328
00:22:03.680 --> 00:22:05.960
They don't perceive that to be a threat, Yet the

329
00:22:06.000 --> 00:22:08.720
people in the crowd do. How is that possible?

330
00:22:09.640 --> 00:22:13.119
That's the last question. But please answer the question, Director.

331
00:22:13.359 --> 00:22:15.960
I'm not certain at this time how the information from

332
00:22:16.039 --> 00:22:18.880
the people in the crowd was relayed to any law

333
00:22:18.960 --> 00:22:19.960
enforcement personnel.

334
00:22:20.279 --> 00:22:23.920
No, you knew that everyone knew. The people there knew

335
00:22:24.720 --> 00:22:26.559
that there was a danger. They knew there was a

336
00:22:26.599 --> 00:22:29.599
threat to President Trump and it was allowed to happen.

337
00:22:29.720 --> 00:22:32.839
Was there a stand down order, Miss Cheetle. Was there

338
00:22:32.880 --> 00:22:34.799
a conspiracy to kill President Trump?

339
00:22:35.000 --> 00:22:35.759
Absolutely not?

340
00:22:36.240 --> 00:22:37.519
Then how did this happen?

341
00:22:37.960 --> 00:22:41.279
And why are you still sitting here not turning in

342
00:22:41.319 --> 00:22:42.440
your letter of resignation?

343
00:22:43.400 --> 00:22:45.920
Last question, but please answer and then I'll recognize Miss Pressley.

344
00:22:45.960 --> 00:22:47.240
Please answer it a question that.

345
00:22:47.279 --> 00:22:49.200
Is what we are investigating to determine.

346
00:22:49.640 --> 00:22:51.200
We're waiting for your letter.

347
00:22:51.799 --> 00:22:55.720
We're waiting for your letter of resignation, and you really

348
00:22:55.759 --> 00:22:57.839
need to consider doing that before you leave today.

349
00:22:58.200 --> 00:23:03.720
Now I submit to you that that is fucking remarkable.

350
00:23:04.839 --> 00:23:10.960
No timeline, Well, Director Cheetle, You're in luck. I have

351
00:23:11.039 --> 00:23:15.279
a timeline. July thirteenth, at five ten pm, Crooks is

352
00:23:15.359 --> 00:23:18.519
seen at the rally and he becomes a suspicious person

353
00:23:18.559 --> 00:23:21.680
of interest about an hour before Trump walks up to

354
00:23:21.759 --> 00:23:26.759
the podium. Twenty minutes later, law enforcement officers spot Crooks

355
00:23:26.799 --> 00:23:30.480
with a backpack and a golf rame. Finder, they even

356
00:23:30.680 --> 00:23:34.720
take pictures. Twenty two minutes later, at five point fifty,

357
00:23:35.000 --> 00:23:39.000
Secret Service locates Crooks on the roof of a building

358
00:23:39.079 --> 00:23:41.720
about one hundred and fifty yards from a podium where

359
00:23:41.759 --> 00:23:46.759
Trump was set to address the crowd. Then at six pm,

360
00:23:47.000 --> 00:23:50.200
eight minutes later, Trump walks up to the podium and

361
00:23:50.359 --> 00:23:53.920
speaks to the crowd. Twelve minutes later, at six twelve,

362
00:23:54.200 --> 00:23:58.240
rally attendees start pointing towards someone on a nearby roof

363
00:23:58.359 --> 00:24:02.720
with a rifle. A local law enforcement officer climbs onto

364
00:24:02.759 --> 00:24:07.079
that roof and sees Crooks with the rifle. Crooks points

365
00:24:07.079 --> 00:24:10.880
it at the officer, who falls off the building. Seconds

366
00:24:10.920 --> 00:24:14.920
after that, gunshots ring out, and about twenty six seconds

367
00:24:15.039 --> 00:24:18.920
later the shooter is neutralized. Then you got a minute

368
00:24:18.960 --> 00:24:22.519
to seven minutes later the Secret Service agents moved Trump

369
00:24:22.599 --> 00:24:27.039
off the stage and into a security vehicle. It took

370
00:24:27.119 --> 00:24:30.400
them seven minutes to do it. Now, don't give me

371
00:24:30.559 --> 00:24:35.400
that bullshit that you don't have a timeline with details.

372
00:24:36.039 --> 00:24:41.119
The incompetence throughout this entire event is just flat out shocking.

373
00:24:41.200 --> 00:24:45.200
And Congress didn't hold back, letting the director know, and

374
00:24:45.359 --> 00:24:49.599
good on them for it. Listen to this club because

375
00:24:49.640 --> 00:24:50.319
Donald Trump.

376
00:24:50.200 --> 00:24:52.440
Is alive, and thank god he is, you look incompetent.

377
00:24:53.319 --> 00:24:56.119
If Donald Trump had been killed, you would have looked culpable.

378
00:24:56.799 --> 00:24:59.319
There is no aspect of this that indicates that there

379
00:24:59.319 --> 00:25:02.720
has been any protection to Donald Trump. Not only should

380
00:25:02.759 --> 00:25:05.559
you resign if you refuse to do so, President Biden

381
00:25:05.599 --> 00:25:09.680
needs to fire you because his life, Donald Trump's life,

382
00:25:09.680 --> 00:25:11.480
and all the other people which you protect are at

383
00:25:11.599 --> 00:25:14.680
risk because you have no concept of the aspect that

384
00:25:14.759 --> 00:25:18.000
the security footprint needs to be correlated to the threat.

385
00:25:18.240 --> 00:25:20.920
I go back now, let's talk about that last part

386
00:25:21.000 --> 00:25:25.759
he said where he discusses the security footprint. He said,

387
00:25:25.839 --> 00:25:29.759
the security footprint needs to correlate to the threat. So

388
00:25:29.839 --> 00:25:33.680
what does he mean? And I'm going to take this twofold. First,

389
00:25:34.400 --> 00:25:38.920
we're talking about Trump here. This ain't Jimmy Carter speaking

390
00:25:38.960 --> 00:25:42.759
in the seventies about peace and love. Like Trump or

391
00:25:42.799 --> 00:25:47.400
hate Trump. He definitely has some very passionate enemies here

392
00:25:47.440 --> 00:25:50.440
in the United States, and some of them would love

393
00:25:50.599 --> 00:25:53.480
nothing more than to see him get killed. That's just

394
00:25:53.599 --> 00:25:57.319
the facts. That fact alone should create more of a

395
00:25:57.359 --> 00:26:01.079
sense of urgency as it relates to his And then

396
00:26:01.119 --> 00:26:07.839
there's something we found out about after the rally, and

397
00:26:07.880 --> 00:26:12.279
that was that the Secret Service knew about a very

398
00:26:12.480 --> 00:26:17.559
credible threat that was discovered out of Iran days before

399
00:26:18.079 --> 00:26:21.559
the Trump rally, and it related to killing Donald Trump.

400
00:26:21.880 --> 00:26:26.920
Not some random threat, but a verified threat that's serious.

401
00:26:28.359 --> 00:26:32.319
The most talked about questioning of the Director during this

402
00:26:32.759 --> 00:26:38.039
entire hearing was courtesy of Nancy Mace of South Carolina,

403
00:26:38.559 --> 00:26:43.440
and she focused on the Secret Service's failure to identify

404
00:26:43.519 --> 00:26:47.599
the shooter as a threat and some other topics. You

405
00:26:47.839 --> 00:26:49.079
got to hear this.

406
00:26:49.319 --> 00:26:51.880
It's Cherdowl recognizing miss Mace from South Carolina.

407
00:26:52.319 --> 00:26:56.440
Thank you, mister Chairman, Director Cheadle. The American people are

408
00:26:56.519 --> 00:27:01.279
watching and they're wondering if there are any questions you

409
00:27:01.319 --> 00:27:03.599
can answer honestly today.

410
00:27:04.519 --> 00:27:05.319
So Director to.

411
00:27:05.279 --> 00:27:08.599
You, I have a series of questions, very specific questions.

412
00:27:08.680 --> 00:27:12.119
I want very specific answers. Most of my questions are

413
00:27:12.119 --> 00:27:13.839
going to demand a yes or no answer. Do you

414
00:27:13.960 --> 00:27:15.279
understand I do?

415
00:27:15.839 --> 00:27:16.200
Okay?

416
00:27:16.279 --> 00:27:19.160
My first question, both sides of the aisle today have

417
00:27:19.279 --> 00:27:22.079
asked for your resignation. Would you like to use my

418
00:27:22.160 --> 00:27:24.119
five minutes to draft your resignation letter?

419
00:27:24.200 --> 00:27:25.759
Yes or no?

420
00:27:25.759 --> 00:27:25.839
No?

421
00:27:25.960 --> 00:27:26.319
Thank you?

422
00:27:28.640 --> 00:27:31.119
Was this a colossal failure?

423
00:27:32.200 --> 00:27:34.519
It was a failure yes or no? Was it a

424
00:27:34.559 --> 00:27:37.799
colossal failure? Is the question? Yes or no? I have

425
00:27:37.839 --> 00:27:39.799
admitted this is a This is a yes or no

426
00:27:39.920 --> 00:27:42.400
series of questions. Was this a colossal failure?

427
00:27:42.720 --> 00:27:43.559
Yes or no?

428
00:27:44.400 --> 00:27:44.720
Yes?

429
00:27:46.039 --> 00:27:48.880
Was this tragedy preventable? Yes or no?

430
00:27:50.000 --> 00:27:50.319
Yes?

431
00:27:51.240 --> 00:27:54.359
Has a secret Service been transparent with this committee?

432
00:27:55.519 --> 00:27:55.799
Yes?

433
00:27:56.839 --> 00:27:58.759
Would you say the fact that we had to issue

434
00:27:58.799 --> 00:28:02.160
a subpoena to get you to show up today as

435
00:28:02.240 --> 00:28:03.200
being transparent?

436
00:28:03.440 --> 00:28:03.680
Yes?

437
00:28:03.920 --> 00:28:04.160
Or no?

438
00:28:04.880 --> 00:28:06.279
I have always been yes or no.

439
00:28:06.279 --> 00:28:07.839
You didn't want to ask me the question. We had

440
00:28:07.880 --> 00:28:10.079
to issue a subpoena to get you to show up today.

441
00:28:10.359 --> 00:28:11.599
That is not transparent.

442
00:28:11.680 --> 00:28:15.880
By the way, you stated earlier, secret Service is not political?

443
00:28:16.000 --> 00:28:17.440
Is that correct? Yes?

444
00:28:18.079 --> 00:28:18.400
Okay?

445
00:28:18.440 --> 00:28:22.119
Would you say leaking your opening statement to punch Bowl News,

446
00:28:22.559 --> 00:28:27.920
Politico's Playbook, and Washington Post several hours before you sent

447
00:28:27.960 --> 00:28:30.400
it to this committee as being political?

448
00:28:30.640 --> 00:28:30.880
Yes?

449
00:28:31.319 --> 00:28:31.640
Or no?

450
00:28:32.240 --> 00:28:34.200
I have no idea how my statement got out.

451
00:28:35.240 --> 00:28:37.200
Well that's bullshit.

452
00:28:37.400 --> 00:28:41.039
So, mister Chairman, I would like to ask unanimous consent

453
00:28:41.079 --> 00:28:43.960
to enter into the record articles by punch Bowl News,

454
00:28:43.960 --> 00:28:48.519
Political Playbook, Washington Post. All done at five twenty four am,

455
00:28:48.559 --> 00:28:51.720
six twelve am, six thirty four am. A solid three

456
00:28:51.720 --> 00:28:54.559
to four hours before this committee got.

457
00:28:54.400 --> 00:28:56.240
Your statement with that objection to ordered.

458
00:28:57.160 --> 00:29:04.200
Okay, is a Secret Service fully cooperating with our committee?

459
00:29:04.480 --> 00:29:04.720
Yes?

460
00:29:06.079 --> 00:29:09.240
Okay, you say you're fully cooperating with this committee. On

461
00:29:09.359 --> 00:29:12.880
July fifteenth, this committee since you a list of demands

462
00:29:12.880 --> 00:29:17.039
of information that we wanted. Has the Secret Service provided

463
00:29:17.039 --> 00:29:20.160
this committee a complete list of all law enforcement.

464
00:29:19.839 --> 00:29:22.000
Personnel that were there that day? Have you done that?

465
00:29:22.119 --> 00:29:24.000
Have you provided a list to the Oversight Committee?

466
00:29:24.599 --> 00:29:25.039
Yes? Or no?

467
00:29:25.079 --> 00:29:26.759
I'll have to get back to you on that.

468
00:29:26.759 --> 00:29:27.319
That is a no.

469
00:29:27.839 --> 00:29:30.599
Have you provided all audio and video recordings in your

470
00:29:30.640 --> 00:29:33.200
possession to this committee as we asked on July fifteenth?

471
00:29:33.240 --> 00:29:33.359
Yes?

472
00:29:33.480 --> 00:29:35.200
Or no? I would have to get back to you.

473
00:29:35.279 --> 00:29:35.759
That is a no.

474
00:29:36.200 --> 00:29:39.519
You're full of shit today. You're just being completely dishonest.

475
00:29:40.160 --> 00:29:41.440
Mister.

476
00:29:43.480 --> 00:29:47.680
Mister. We have to maintain in this committee.

477
00:29:47.160 --> 00:29:51.400
Any any memos to this committee that we've asked you

478
00:29:51.440 --> 00:29:53.880
on July fifteenth. Have you provided all memorandums within the

479
00:29:53.880 --> 00:29:54.599
Secret Service?

480
00:29:55.200 --> 00:29:56.519
I would have to get back to you on That

481
00:29:56.640 --> 00:29:57.200
is a no.

482
00:29:57.519 --> 00:30:00.880
You are being dishonest or lying. I just being dishonest

483
00:30:00.920 --> 00:30:03.200
here with this committee. These are important questions that the

484
00:30:03.200 --> 00:30:06.880
American people want answers to and you're you're just dodging

485
00:30:07.160 --> 00:30:10.519
and talking around it in generalities. And we had a

486
00:30:10.519 --> 00:30:12.359
subpoena you to be here, and you won't even answer

487
00:30:12.400 --> 00:30:15.960
the questions. We have asked you repeatedly to answer our questions.

488
00:30:15.960 --> 00:30:18.599
This isn't hard, These are not hard questions.

489
00:30:19.599 --> 00:30:21.000
Have you provided us all.

490
00:30:20.880 --> 00:30:23.880
Communications from the Secret Service related to that day in

491
00:30:23.880 --> 00:30:25.680
that rally? Have you provided this Committe We've asked for

492
00:30:25.680 --> 00:30:29.119
this information on July fifteenth? Have you provided any of

493
00:30:29.160 --> 00:30:33.839
this information that this committee has asked of the Secret Service?

494
00:30:33.880 --> 00:30:34.319
Any of it?

495
00:30:35.079 --> 00:30:36.039
I'll have to get back to you.

496
00:30:36.119 --> 00:30:38.720
Have you even read this letter that we sent you?

497
00:30:39.359 --> 00:30:40.200
Did you even read this?

498
00:30:40.640 --> 00:30:40.960
Yes?

499
00:30:41.319 --> 00:30:41.720
Okay?

500
00:30:41.880 --> 00:30:45.319
And you have said you don't know, you have no idea.

501
00:30:45.359 --> 00:30:46.279
The answer is no.

502
00:30:46.680 --> 00:30:49.960
We haven't gotten a single document or piece of information

503
00:30:50.119 --> 00:30:54.039
or data from you or your agency and related to

504
00:30:54.079 --> 00:30:54.839
the rally that we.

505
00:30:54.839 --> 00:30:55.720
Have asked you for.

506
00:30:57.279 --> 00:31:03.279
So is this was this attempted assassination of Donald trumpet?

507
00:31:03.279 --> 00:31:06.039
Failure of training or execution or both?

508
00:31:06.839 --> 00:31:08.559
I think that those are answers that.

509
00:31:08.480 --> 00:31:09.000
We need to do.

510
00:31:09.200 --> 00:31:11.559
Is training as execution or both? Which one?

511
00:31:11.839 --> 00:31:12.759
I think those are answers?

512
00:31:12.759 --> 00:31:13.119
All right?

513
00:31:13.119 --> 00:31:16.839
How many Secret Service personnel have lost their jobs due

514
00:31:16.839 --> 00:31:18.079
to this colossal failure.

515
00:31:19.599 --> 00:31:22.640
At this time none, how many.

516
00:31:22.519 --> 00:31:25.480
Secret Service personnel have been required to take a refresher

517
00:31:25.519 --> 00:31:29.000
course on how not to let people shoot Donald Trump.

518
00:31:30.240 --> 00:31:32.359
Our personnel are currently operational.

519
00:31:33.079 --> 00:31:36.839
We are examining the facts of this investigation and we

520
00:31:36.880 --> 00:31:37.680
will make the changes.

521
00:31:37.720 --> 00:31:37.880
Nest.

522
00:31:38.119 --> 00:31:40.319
What time did law enforce and become aware that there

523
00:31:40.319 --> 00:31:42.000
was an individual on the roof with a clear line

524
00:31:42.000 --> 00:31:43.119
of site to President Trump.

525
00:31:43.720 --> 00:31:47.920
I am still verifying timelines, of course, nine days in.

526
00:31:48.000 --> 00:31:48.720
You have no answers.

527
00:31:48.720 --> 00:31:51.079
How many minutes went by between the time law enforcement

528
00:31:51.079 --> 00:31:53.319
saw and took photos of crooks and the shooting.

529
00:31:53.400 --> 00:31:55.640
How many minutes I.

530
00:31:55.559 --> 00:31:58.960
Am still verifying fIF timeline seven minutes.

531
00:32:00.039 --> 00:32:01.960
Thank you, mister Chairman, and I yield back.

532
00:32:02.079 --> 00:32:06.559
Well. I couldnot have said that any better. Yeah, she

533
00:32:06.640 --> 00:32:09.000
might have had some choice words in there, as I

534
00:32:09.039 --> 00:32:13.759
would have, But honestly, the situation probably called for it,

535
00:32:14.240 --> 00:32:18.920
and it's probably quite frustrating when you have someone you're

536
00:32:19.119 --> 00:32:24.079
questioning with the demeanor that the Secret Service director had,

537
00:32:24.119 --> 00:32:27.079
and look demeanor is everything. You can tell a lot

538
00:32:27.200 --> 00:32:32.480
about someone by the demeanor they possess under pressure in

539
00:32:32.519 --> 00:32:35.359
a situation where they know they were on the wrong

540
00:32:35.599 --> 00:32:39.960
side of the argument, and to me, Cheetles seemed way

541
00:32:40.000 --> 00:32:44.759
too comfortable in that hearing, and that bothers me. It

542
00:32:44.880 --> 00:32:49.079
bothers me because it appears she has been put at ease.

543
00:32:50.200 --> 00:32:53.519
Someone somewhere has told her not to worry about it,

544
00:32:53.559 --> 00:32:56.759
don't sweat it, go in there, and regardless of what happens,

545
00:32:56.839 --> 00:32:59.799
you're not going to be in any trouble. I feel

546
00:32:59.799 --> 00:33:02.920
it my gut. I could see it in her demeanor,

547
00:33:03.440 --> 00:33:06.759
and I don't like it one bit. She looked way

548
00:33:06.839 --> 00:33:10.799
too confident in her ability to evade the questions, almost

549
00:33:10.960 --> 00:33:14.480
like she didn't give a shit about how massive this

550
00:33:14.640 --> 00:33:19.599
security failure was under her watch. It bothered me. We

551
00:33:19.599 --> 00:33:24.119
were millimeters away from seeing a former president get his

552
00:33:24.279 --> 00:33:28.839
head blown completely off. And now, I'll be honest, when

553
00:33:28.839 --> 00:33:34.319
this first happened, I was not on the conspiracy bandwagon.

554
00:33:35.359 --> 00:33:39.079
I was not someone who thought our government had anything

555
00:33:39.640 --> 00:33:42.839
directly to do with this. Certainly there was a failure,

556
00:33:43.440 --> 00:33:47.000
and I initially chalked that up to just share and competence.

557
00:33:47.960 --> 00:33:51.599
But now I'm convinced there's a lot more to this

558
00:33:52.480 --> 00:33:58.200
than we the people may realize, and that is scary.

559
00:33:59.400 --> 00:34:05.599
It's not who we are now, was there some actual incompetence? Absolutely,

560
00:34:06.240 --> 00:34:08.679
You watch the video, and I know we've all seen

561
00:34:08.800 --> 00:34:12.960
the actual shooting. You saw that female Secret Service agent

562
00:34:13.119 --> 00:34:17.079
she couldn't find her holest and the female Secret Service

563
00:34:17.119 --> 00:34:21.440
agent who tries as she must rite, she did everything

564
00:34:21.519 --> 00:34:25.719
she could to guard Trump, but she was just too

565
00:34:25.760 --> 00:34:30.480
damned short. Quite frankly, several of the male Secret Service

566
00:34:30.519 --> 00:34:34.039
agents that left him on that stage left them on

567
00:34:34.079 --> 00:34:39.280
there way too long. And that leads me to the

568
00:34:39.360 --> 00:34:44.800
whole di aspect of this. So, for those of you

569
00:34:44.880 --> 00:34:51.199
that may be unaware, DEI stands for diversity, equity and inclusion,

570
00:34:51.880 --> 00:34:55.960
and it is, in my opinion, a horrible way in

571
00:34:56.000 --> 00:35:00.000
which to run government or really business for that matter.

572
00:35:00.719 --> 00:35:04.400
It requires government entities to hire not based off of

573
00:35:04.440 --> 00:35:09.679
the merit of an individual, but also based on certain

574
00:35:09.760 --> 00:35:14.119
criteria like you must employ so many females or a

575
00:35:14.159 --> 00:35:18.000
certain amount of minorities, or even those that identify as

576
00:35:18.159 --> 00:35:22.960
different genders. And the director of the Secret Service herself,

577
00:35:23.039 --> 00:35:29.880
Kimberly Cheatle, it is widely considered that she is a

578
00:35:30.159 --> 00:35:34.039
DEI hire, that she was promoted because she was a

579
00:35:34.079 --> 00:35:37.280
female and they needed a female in that role to

580
00:35:37.400 --> 00:35:42.119
satisfy DEI requirements. As a matter of fact, many of

581
00:35:42.159 --> 00:35:46.079
the Secret Service agents are DEI hires. And I don't

582
00:35:46.079 --> 00:35:50.239
want to make this completely clear. The vast majority of

583
00:35:50.239 --> 00:35:56.079
the Secret Service, FBI, CIA, local police are all good

584
00:35:56.159 --> 00:35:59.480
people who are doing this not for the money, but

585
00:35:59.639 --> 00:36:02.159
because they have it in them to do this. And

586
00:36:02.679 --> 00:36:06.360
there's no one out there that is blue more than

587
00:36:06.360 --> 00:36:10.320
this guy right here talking to you. But make no

588
00:36:10.440 --> 00:36:15.079
mistake about it. Every industry has bad apples, Every company

589
00:36:15.159 --> 00:36:19.159
has bad apples. And look on the subject of DEI

590
00:36:19.400 --> 00:36:22.800
call me crazy, but I own three different businesses and

591
00:36:22.880 --> 00:36:27.079
I hire based off of one's ability to do the job.

592
00:36:27.239 --> 00:36:32.639
I don't care if your black, white, Latino, male, female, whatever.

593
00:36:33.119 --> 00:36:35.599
If you can do the job, I want you working

594
00:36:35.639 --> 00:36:40.440
for me. Your race, your sex, it plays zero part

595
00:36:40.760 --> 00:36:43.920
in that decision. And that is the way it should be.

596
00:36:44.360 --> 00:36:47.639
And I will note that many companies they're slowly figuring

597
00:36:47.719 --> 00:36:54.079
out how detrimental DEI is to business. Microsoft, as an example,

598
00:36:54.440 --> 00:36:58.920
used to promote DEI heavily. Now they've completely done away

599
00:36:58.960 --> 00:37:03.280
with it, as have a lot of other large companies recently.

600
00:37:03.559 --> 00:37:06.800
And here's another fun fact for you right now. To

601
00:37:06.880 --> 00:37:10.760
be listed on Nasdaq. One of the questions you're asked

602
00:37:11.119 --> 00:37:16.280
is if anyone on your board is in an underrepresented community?

603
00:37:16.320 --> 00:37:20.960
Who on your board is LGBTQ, Who's black, Who's Latino,

604
00:37:21.039 --> 00:37:25.599
who's disabled? All that? There is even a rule, y'all,

605
00:37:25.880 --> 00:37:31.079
known as the Board Diversity Disclosure Rule. What's that? That's

606
00:37:31.119 --> 00:37:35.039
a rule that requires companies trading on the exchange to

607
00:37:35.159 --> 00:37:40.159
have a member on their board who identifies as a female,

608
00:37:40.440 --> 00:37:46.800
or as a member of an unrepresented community, racial ethnic minority,

609
00:37:46.960 --> 00:37:51.239
a member of LGBTQ, all of those things, y'all. We

610
00:37:51.360 --> 00:37:56.840
are living in some crazy times. So what's all that

611
00:37:56.880 --> 00:38:00.079
got to do with a former president nearly getting and

612
00:38:00.119 --> 00:38:05.199
his head blown off? Well, I think DEI specifically played

613
00:38:05.239 --> 00:38:08.519
a large role in the fact that this was even

614
00:38:08.679 --> 00:38:12.119
able to occur. While I do think there was a

615
00:38:12.199 --> 00:38:15.840
conspiracy component to this whole deal, I don't think a

616
00:38:15.840 --> 00:38:18.280
lot of people knew about it, and I do think

617
00:38:18.400 --> 00:38:21.280
that the Secret Service agents that were actually guarding the

618
00:38:21.280 --> 00:38:24.480
president were doing their best to do so. I just

619
00:38:24.519 --> 00:38:27.760
think their ability wasn't up to par. And I think

620
00:38:27.920 --> 00:38:32.400
DEI played a role. Yep. I used the term conspiracy,

621
00:38:33.079 --> 00:38:36.000
and honestly, I don't take any pleasure in doing it.

622
00:38:36.079 --> 00:38:40.679
There is no one out there more red blooded American

623
00:38:41.159 --> 00:38:46.320
than me and more patriotic than me. But there's a

624
00:38:46.559 --> 00:38:50.280
lot of evidence coming out about this that it was

625
00:38:50.400 --> 00:38:53.960
the work of more than one shooter. None of the

626
00:38:54.000 --> 00:38:58.119
evidence is stronger than what I am about to present

627
00:38:58.199 --> 00:38:59.960
to you. And I want to shout out this guy

628
00:39:00.239 --> 00:39:02.679
who came up with this and did the work. His

629
00:39:02.800 --> 00:39:06.400
name is Chris Mortensen, and he has a YouTube channel

630
00:39:06.480 --> 00:39:09.519
called Peak Prosperity, So go check him out, give him

631
00:39:09.559 --> 00:39:14.079
a follow. This guy has done a great job of

632
00:39:14.159 --> 00:39:17.320
convincing me that there was more than one shooter on

633
00:39:17.440 --> 00:39:20.639
this day. And what he did was he broke down

634
00:39:20.800 --> 00:39:23.880
the sounds that you hear, and he presents a pretty

635
00:39:23.880 --> 00:39:29.400
good case of these sounds coming from different types of guns,

636
00:39:29.960 --> 00:39:33.079
and from a guy like myself who deals with sound

637
00:39:33.239 --> 00:39:36.920
and editing and things like that, I know what he's

638
00:39:36.960 --> 00:39:40.559
talking about here. So I'm gonna play you a series

639
00:39:40.599 --> 00:39:44.639
of clips where he does just a bang up job

640
00:39:44.760 --> 00:39:48.400
of breaking that down, which incidentally should have been the

641
00:39:48.480 --> 00:39:52.119
Secret Services job. But before I do, I want to

642
00:39:52.239 --> 00:39:55.719
note that CNN, who's not my favorite news source by

643
00:39:55.760 --> 00:40:01.639
any stretch, they actually did some audio forensic analysis themselves.

644
00:40:01.960 --> 00:40:04.360
And that happened the day after the shooting, on the

645
00:40:04.400 --> 00:40:08.000
fourteenth of July, and they posted an article and in

646
00:40:08.039 --> 00:40:12.400
that article they said there were potentially three shooters and

647
00:40:12.519 --> 00:40:17.000
three different weapons. Now, when CNN is saying that, I

648
00:40:17.039 --> 00:40:21.239
want you to understand, they're no friend of Donald Trump's either,

649
00:40:21.440 --> 00:40:24.519
and this was the day after the shooting. But this guy,

650
00:40:25.039 --> 00:40:28.840
what he did was just in much more detail. So

651
00:40:29.000 --> 00:40:38.559
listen to this first club. Watch his shoulder. Now, I

652
00:40:38.599 --> 00:40:42.119
know we're recording this on audio and you can't actually

653
00:40:42.239 --> 00:40:45.559
see what he's referencing as he's talking, but it's the

654
00:40:45.679 --> 00:40:49.679
video from the shooter actually being on the roof that

655
00:40:49.719 --> 00:40:53.119
we've all seen, where he's crawling around that roof. And

656
00:40:53.159 --> 00:40:56.360
I'm sure many of you have seen that. And it

657
00:40:56.480 --> 00:40:59.920
was right when the first shot went off that you

658
00:41:00.159 --> 00:41:04.280
here that he pauses that video and when that shot

659
00:41:04.400 --> 00:41:07.559
goes off, and at this time the shooter was still alive.

660
00:41:08.039 --> 00:41:13.719
There's no kickback. His shoulders don't move, there's no recoil,

661
00:41:14.199 --> 00:41:18.199
and that's important. Now, this guy had an AR fifteen

662
00:41:18.960 --> 00:41:22.480
and I've shot him. They have some kick There's no

663
00:41:22.679 --> 00:41:25.920
way he could have fired that gun without his shoulder moving,

664
00:41:26.519 --> 00:41:29.559
but yet in that video, which was taken by someone

665
00:41:29.559 --> 00:41:33.559
in the crowd, he never moved. But we hear a

666
00:41:33.559 --> 00:41:43.440
shot and I'll continue with this club.

667
00:41:47.559 --> 00:41:50.800
Okay, so let's analyze this. Now, let's go into this

668
00:41:51.039 --> 00:41:53.760
with a little bit more depth. So Video two, the

669
00:41:53.800 --> 00:41:56.880
way I score it, there's about sixteen point zero seconds

670
00:41:56.880 --> 00:41:59.400
from first to last shot, so very consistent with what

671
00:41:59.559 --> 00:42:01.639
we're experiencing on the first audio.

672
00:42:01.800 --> 00:42:02.880
So that's nice.

673
00:42:02.920 --> 00:42:05.599
They kind of line up pretty well. And here's the

674
00:42:05.599 --> 00:42:07.880
whole audio from all that screaming and the shots from

675
00:42:07.960 --> 00:42:10.880
video two. We have in blue the first three shots.

676
00:42:10.960 --> 00:42:14.039
Here we have more shots here from a second weapon.

677
00:42:14.119 --> 00:42:15.840
I'm not sure about this one. It has a very

678
00:42:15.840 --> 00:42:18.920
different sound that we heard. And here's the final last shot,

679
00:42:18.920 --> 00:42:21.639
which I believe is from Oh sorry, don't have my thing,

680
00:42:21.679 --> 00:42:24.400
you know what I'm pointing it. This is the five

681
00:42:24.760 --> 00:42:27.400
that make a very distinct sound. Here's one with a

682
00:42:27.480 --> 00:42:30.000
very different crack in it. That's the sixth shot in

683
00:42:30.039 --> 00:42:31.920
the string. And then here we have the final last one,

684
00:42:31.960 --> 00:42:34.400
which I think is the sniper weapon, which is probably

685
00:42:34.480 --> 00:42:37.199
the one that put the bullet just over the left

686
00:42:37.199 --> 00:42:40.000
eye of crooks on the roof. So we're going to

687
00:42:40.039 --> 00:42:41.800
take a closer look at the blue, the red, the

688
00:42:41.840 --> 00:42:44.480
blacks here and listen to these things. But once again,

689
00:42:44.599 --> 00:42:46.800
let's just listen very carefully, and we'll go back and

690
00:42:46.840 --> 00:42:49.679
forth until you're certain of this yourself. Here's just the

691
00:42:49.679 --> 00:42:52.320
first three shots from that video. I haven't done anything,

692
00:42:52.400 --> 00:42:55.440
no audit. I haven't done any enhancements. This is both

693
00:42:55.639 --> 00:43:00.480
Both of these video audio pieces are exactly pulled straight

694
00:43:00.519 --> 00:43:02.400
from the video itself.

695
00:43:02.639 --> 00:43:03.159
Nothing else.

696
00:43:03.199 --> 00:43:07.239
I haven't boosted any I haven't done any filtering raw files. Okay.

697
00:43:07.320 --> 00:43:09.880
So and and by the way, every instinct in me

698
00:43:10.000 --> 00:43:12.280
was to try and minimize all the screaming. But I

699
00:43:12.320 --> 00:43:14.119
was like, nope, nope, nope, nope, that's just that, Like

700
00:43:14.159 --> 00:43:15.960
what did you do? And then there's questions, these are

701
00:43:16.079 --> 00:43:21.840
raw files. Here's one, two, and three to start. Okay,

702
00:43:21.960 --> 00:43:30.519
listen to that again and one more time. Okay, now

703
00:43:30.599 --> 00:43:43.880
let's listen to the next string. Yeah hear that. So

704
00:43:44.239 --> 00:43:46.800
six sounds different to me. But here's a fun here's

705
00:43:46.840 --> 00:43:50.360
an interesting thing. One two and three besides being muffled

706
00:43:50.400 --> 00:43:53.360
and further away, it doesn't have echoes here we have

707
00:43:53.639 --> 00:43:55.800
this is a shot here, this one this peak.

708
00:43:56.119 --> 00:43:56.440
Darn it.

709
00:43:56.480 --> 00:43:57.400
I don't have my thing up again.

710
00:43:57.440 --> 00:43:59.679
Here we go. So this here is a shot.

711
00:43:59.760 --> 00:44:04.119
This is an echo, very clearly an echo and a

712
00:44:04.159 --> 00:44:06.519
shot in an echo, and a shot in an echo.

713
00:44:06.559 --> 00:44:10.119
Because you hear that there's echoes coming off. So that

714
00:44:10.320 --> 00:44:13.800
also allows us again to analyze where was this gun.

715
00:44:14.000 --> 00:44:17.719
But first up, we just have an absolutely different sound

716
00:44:18.000 --> 00:44:24.719
between the first three. There's no echo, it's much further away,

717
00:44:24.880 --> 00:44:28.000
it's more muffled. It's just not in the same place

718
00:44:28.039 --> 00:44:33.599
at all. But these next ones very different sound, totally

719
00:44:33.599 --> 00:44:37.119
different weapons. Okay, full stop, we have two separate weapons.

720
00:44:37.280 --> 00:44:39.840
Plus we have no echoes coming off of the first three,

721
00:44:39.920 --> 00:44:42.400
and then we do have echos coming off of the

722
00:44:42.440 --> 00:44:42.920
next sex.

723
00:44:43.480 --> 00:44:47.880
It's the pacing. The pacing is the issue. Well, you're

724
00:44:47.920 --> 00:44:54.199
trying to say, is the sound doesn't match the pacing

725
00:44:55.199 --> 00:44:59.159
of the firing of the weapon. You hear two booms,

726
00:45:00.039 --> 00:45:04.400
and then you hear a series of booms really fast,

727
00:45:04.480 --> 00:45:10.559
so boom boom, boom, boom, boom, boom boom. And here's

728
00:45:10.599 --> 00:45:14.760
another interesting fact. Those five shots you hear in succession,

729
00:45:15.599 --> 00:45:19.239
those were so fast that when he broke them down

730
00:45:19.360 --> 00:45:24.159
by time, it would have been a war record for

731
00:45:24.320 --> 00:45:26.960
one person to be able to pull a trigger that

732
00:45:27.159 --> 00:45:32.159
many times in that short of a time span. It

733
00:45:32.239 --> 00:45:36.400
was like zero point seven seven five of a second.

734
00:45:36.800 --> 00:45:42.559
That's not possible with just one gun. That's important. Now.

735
00:45:42.719 --> 00:45:46.039
There's also been a discussion about how many times Donald

736
00:45:46.039 --> 00:45:51.440
Trump asked for extra security for not only that event,

737
00:45:51.639 --> 00:45:54.840
but events prior to that, and it's been reported that

738
00:45:54.920 --> 00:45:59.039
he was denied extra security. As a matter of fact,

739
00:45:59.360 --> 00:46:04.239
Congressman and Jim Jordan asked Director Kim Cheatle that question

740
00:46:05.320 --> 00:46:08.159
in the hearing. And here's what that sounded like, Tim.

741
00:46:08.039 --> 00:46:09.880
When year's back chaining, I recognized Chairman of the House

742
00:46:09.920 --> 00:46:12.599
Judiciary Committee, mister Jordan from ohaw.

743
00:46:12.320 --> 00:46:14.639
Thank you, mister Chairman. Director, were you guess inner Lion?

744
00:46:16.320 --> 00:46:19.840
The day after President Trump is shot, Secret Service spokesman

745
00:46:19.880 --> 00:46:22.760
Anthony Googliami said, quote, the assertion that a member of

746
00:46:22.840 --> 00:46:26.840
the former president security team requested additional security resources that

747
00:46:26.880 --> 00:46:29.480
the US Secret Service or the Department of Homeland Security

748
00:46:29.519 --> 00:46:33.679
rebuffed is absolutely false. The next day, Secretary of my

749
00:46:33.760 --> 00:46:36.719
work has said that is an unequivocally false assertion. We

750
00:46:36.800 --> 00:46:40.119
had not received any request for additional security measures that

751
00:46:40.199 --> 00:46:44.400
were rebuffed. But five days later, the Washington Post said

752
00:46:44.480 --> 00:46:50.039
this top officials repeatedly rejected requests from Donald Trump's security

753
00:46:50.079 --> 00:46:53.599
detail for more personnel. The next day, The New York

754
00:46:53.639 --> 00:46:57.639
Times said this, mister GOOGLIAMI acknowledged that the Secret Service

755
00:46:57.679 --> 00:47:01.840
had turned down some request for additional federal security assets

756
00:47:01.840 --> 00:47:05.440
for mister Trump's detail. So which is it? Because both

757
00:47:05.480 --> 00:47:07.920
statements can't be true. Were you guessing or lying when

758
00:47:07.960 --> 00:47:11.639
you said you didn't turn down requests from President Trump's detail?

759
00:47:13.920 --> 00:47:17.519
Neither, sir, and I appreciate the question what were you doing?

760
00:47:17.599 --> 00:47:20.199
Because those statements don't jive.

761
00:47:20.639 --> 00:47:22.400
So what I can tell you is that for the

762
00:47:22.440 --> 00:47:26.199
event in Butler, there were no requests that were denied.

763
00:47:26.840 --> 00:47:28.679
As far as requests.

764
00:47:28.239 --> 00:47:31.280
Well, maybe they got tired of asking. Maybe it turned

765
00:47:31.320 --> 00:47:34.039
them down, said darn much, they said not worth asking?

766
00:47:34.239 --> 00:47:35.960
How many times did you turn them down? Ahead of that?

767
00:47:37.159 --> 00:47:39.840
I think that it is important to distinguish between what

768
00:47:40.079 --> 00:47:44.280
some people may view as a denial of an asset

769
00:47:44.360 --> 00:47:44.840
or a request.

770
00:47:45.039 --> 00:47:50.480
Was mister Gougliami your spokesperson, He said, he acknowledged a

771
00:47:50.519 --> 00:47:54.280
Secret Service had turned down some requests. I'm asking how many.

772
00:47:54.559 --> 00:47:58.639
A denial of a request is not equal of vulnerability? Well,

773
00:47:58.679 --> 00:48:02.360
tell me what it is number of ways that threats

774
00:48:02.400 --> 00:48:06.199
and risks can be mitigated mitigated with a number of

775
00:48:06.440 --> 00:48:10.199
different assets, whether that be through personnel, whether that be

776
00:48:10.320 --> 00:48:13.119
through technology or other reasons.

777
00:48:13.280 --> 00:48:16.440
Tell the committee which it was they asked for additional

778
00:48:16.480 --> 00:48:19.199
help in some form or another you told them no?

779
00:48:20.000 --> 00:48:21.639
How many times did you tell them no? And what

780
00:48:21.679 --> 00:48:22.559
did you tell them? Know too?

781
00:48:24.559 --> 00:48:27.719
Again, I cannot speak to specific incidents, but I can

782
00:48:27.760 --> 00:48:32.719
tell you in general terms, the Secret Service is judicious

783
00:48:32.760 --> 00:48:34.480
with their resources based on.

784
00:48:34.920 --> 00:48:38.360
What does some requests mean? How many times some indicate

785
00:48:38.400 --> 00:48:40.480
requests is plural? So more than once they asked for

786
00:48:40.519 --> 00:48:43.440
additional help and you turned them down? What they asked

787
00:48:43.480 --> 00:48:45.199
for it? How many times you turn them down? Pretty

788
00:48:45.199 --> 00:48:46.039
basic questions.

789
00:48:46.440 --> 00:48:49.000
So, again, without having all of the details in front

790
00:48:49.000 --> 00:48:51.039
of me, sir, what I can tell you is that

791
00:48:51.079 --> 00:48:51.760
there are times.

792
00:48:51.599 --> 00:48:53.239
I can't get briefed on how many times you turn

793
00:48:53.280 --> 00:48:55.719
down the trump detail when they ask for additional help.

794
00:48:56.239 --> 00:48:58.000
I'm sorry you didn't get briefed on that before you

795
00:48:58.039 --> 00:48:59.519
came to this hearing, knowing you were going to get

796
00:48:59.519 --> 00:49:00.199
asked that question.

797
00:49:01.119 --> 00:49:03.599
What I can tell you is it in generic terms,

798
00:49:03.840 --> 00:49:07.800
when people when details make a request, there are times

799
00:49:08.199 --> 00:49:11.440
that there are alternate ways to cover off on that

800
00:49:11.519 --> 00:49:12.639
threat or that risk.

801
00:49:12.760 --> 00:49:14.360
That's not what he said. He said they were denied

802
00:49:14.400 --> 00:49:18.079
certain requests, some requests. This is your spokesperson on me talking,

803
00:49:18.239 --> 00:49:21.679
This is the Secret Service talking. And what a change

804
00:49:21.679 --> 00:49:25.119
from absolutely false, unequivocally false to oh, by the way,

805
00:49:25.280 --> 00:49:27.039
there were some times where we didn't give them what

806
00:49:27.079 --> 00:49:30.639
they wanted. That's a huge change in five days. And

807
00:49:30.719 --> 00:49:32.760
the fact that you can't answer how many times you

808
00:49:32.800 --> 00:49:36.079
did that, that's pretty darn frustrating, not just for me

809
00:49:36.159 --> 00:49:38.719
but for the country.

810
00:49:38.960 --> 00:49:39.960
I hear your frustration.

811
00:49:40.239 --> 00:49:42.400
Let me ask you this, were any of those requests

812
00:49:42.480 --> 00:49:45.320
denied to President Trump's detail after you knew about the

813
00:49:45.320 --> 00:49:46.519
Iranian threat.

814
00:49:47.360 --> 00:49:49.880
What I can tell you, again I don't know the specifics,

815
00:49:50.039 --> 00:49:54.360
is that there are times when we can fill a request.

816
00:49:55.000 --> 00:49:57.679
It doesn't necessarily have to be with a Secret Service

817
00:49:58.519 --> 00:50:02.440
asset or resource. We can fill that request with locally

818
00:50:02.480 --> 00:50:03.400
available assets.

819
00:50:03.440 --> 00:50:07.119
You spoke to anyone at the White House since July thirteenth, Yes,

820
00:50:07.159 --> 00:50:08.320
I have, who'd you talk to?

821
00:50:08.920 --> 00:50:11.280
I have briefed the President and the Vice president.

822
00:50:11.320 --> 00:50:12.920
Talk to the first Lady.

823
00:50:13.239 --> 00:50:14.199
No, I have not talked to the.

824
00:50:14.199 --> 00:50:16.280
White House staff, anyone in the White house communications.

825
00:50:17.719 --> 00:50:18.280
No, I have not.

826
00:50:18.559 --> 00:50:20.480
Have you talked to the counter sniper who took the

827
00:50:20.480 --> 00:50:22.159
shot that took out the bad guy?

828
00:50:22.400 --> 00:50:22.639
Yes?

829
00:50:22.679 --> 00:50:25.000
I have, And can you tell us about that conversation.

830
00:50:26.039 --> 00:50:28.360
I would not want to reveal conversations that I've had

831
00:50:28.400 --> 00:50:29.800
with my employees.

832
00:50:29.639 --> 00:50:31.880
But that's exactly the kind of information the American people

833
00:50:31.880 --> 00:50:33.800
want to know, American people who pay your salary.

834
00:50:34.000 --> 00:50:37.079
I understand this is an ongoing investigation.

835
00:50:36.480 --> 00:50:38.679
And who's all doing the investigating at Secret Service? I

836
00:50:38.760 --> 00:50:41.320
know the Inspector General, but is there also an internal investigation?

837
00:50:41.360 --> 00:50:42.800
In addition to the Inspector General.

838
00:50:43.199 --> 00:50:47.119
We are conducting a mission assurance investigation internally.

839
00:50:47.280 --> 00:50:49.880
Yes, you know what looks like director, looks like you

840
00:50:49.920 --> 00:50:51.880
want answer some pretty basic questions. It looks like you

841
00:50:51.960 --> 00:50:53.760
got a nine percent raise and you cut corners when

842
00:50:53.760 --> 00:50:55.840
it came to protecting one of the most important individual's,

843
00:50:55.840 --> 00:50:58.719
most well known individuals on the planet, a former president,

844
00:50:58.960 --> 00:51:00.519
likely the guy is going to be the next president.

845
00:51:00.639 --> 00:51:02.320
Looks like you guys were cutting corners. That's what it

846
00:51:02.320 --> 00:51:04.119
looks like to me. Is that true?

847
00:51:04.440 --> 00:51:06.920
I am here today because I want to answer questions,

848
00:51:07.239 --> 00:51:08.519
but I also want to be closed.

849
00:51:08.679 --> 00:51:10.320
I want to but you haven't answered. I don't think

850
00:51:10.320 --> 00:51:12.719
you've answered one question from the chairman, the ranking member,

851
00:51:13.440 --> 00:51:15.679
or me. We've got a lot of other people asking

852
00:51:15.719 --> 00:51:18.000
we'll see if if your record improves, but right now

853
00:51:18.039 --> 00:51:20.400
you haven't answered. I don't think any questions I you back.

854
00:51:20.679 --> 00:51:24.840
And a lot of people, many which the numbers increasing

855
00:51:24.920 --> 00:51:28.719
by the day, are concerned that this was an intentional

856
00:51:29.239 --> 00:51:33.760
act of government, not necessarily from a flat out hey,

857
00:51:33.800 --> 00:51:38.000
we're going to assassinate the former president, but by not

858
00:51:38.280 --> 00:51:44.039
doing anything about it, essentially allowing it to happen, maybe

859
00:51:44.440 --> 00:51:49.519
making it easy for someone. And I truly hope and

860
00:51:49.880 --> 00:51:54.159
pray that's not the case, but with the lack of

861
00:51:54.239 --> 00:52:00.800
information by the government, it leads to that speculation. I

862
00:52:00.880 --> 00:52:04.199
just saw a poll where people were questioned on the

863
00:52:04.360 --> 00:52:08.199
very subject, and hear the results of that poll. Fourteen

864
00:52:08.320 --> 00:52:12.480
percent of the people polled believe it was a lone

865
00:52:12.480 --> 00:52:16.840
wolf assassin. Ten percent believe it was a conspiracy, but

866
00:52:16.920 --> 00:52:21.039
not a government related conspiracy, meaning more than one person

867
00:52:21.480 --> 00:52:26.000
was involved, but not anyone in government. And how many

868
00:52:26.000 --> 00:52:32.400
people think it was a government involved conspiracy seventy seven

869
00:52:32.679 --> 00:52:37.840
percent higher almost eight out of every ten people polled.

870
00:52:38.639 --> 00:52:44.360
This is what no information out of your government leads

871
00:52:44.400 --> 00:52:50.760
to complete distrust. Warrant it or not, you want to

872
00:52:50.800 --> 00:52:57.199
stop the theories, then start learning the art of freaking

873
00:52:57.639 --> 00:53:04.039
transparencypeaking of conspiracy and more than one shooter. There's a

874
00:53:04.159 --> 00:53:10.280
video that raised both of my eyebrows circulating currently and

875
00:53:10.360 --> 00:53:14.360
it was taken by an attendee of the rally. Now,

876
00:53:15.079 --> 00:53:18.920
the video is pointed at the water tower during the shooting,

877
00:53:19.000 --> 00:53:22.159
where a bunch of attendees were actually saying the shots

878
00:53:22.159 --> 00:53:25.519
were coming from. And in that video you can see

879
00:53:25.519 --> 00:53:30.760
a figure and admittingly it's very grainy, but it appears

880
00:53:30.800 --> 00:53:34.599
to be a human being that pops out just when

881
00:53:34.639 --> 00:53:37.880
the shots are fired. Then it looks like the figure

882
00:53:37.960 --> 00:53:40.599
ducks behind the top of the water tower and then

883
00:53:40.639 --> 00:53:44.480
appears again as more shots are fired out And there's

884
00:53:44.519 --> 00:53:49.079
been no explanation for this, and the government has said

885
00:53:49.480 --> 00:53:54.960
absolutely nothing about it. Hold on to your ass because

886
00:53:55.039 --> 00:53:57.519
what I'm about to tell you may have been the

887
00:53:57.559 --> 00:54:03.079
biggest shot of all for me personally. After this incident ended.

888
00:54:03.840 --> 00:54:07.559
Do you notice there's all this footage from attendees, but

889
00:54:07.679 --> 00:54:16.480
we've yet to see any bodycam footage. Well, people asked

890
00:54:16.480 --> 00:54:23.719
about that, and guess what it doesn't exist. Butler County

891
00:54:23.880 --> 00:54:28.360
Sheriff's deputies have said their body camerons were turned off

892
00:54:29.159 --> 00:54:35.159
and there is absolutely no footage from the incident via bodycams. Now,

893
00:54:35.159 --> 00:54:37.960
I want to say this, there is a video that

894
00:54:38.199 --> 00:54:42.800
was released just today, well the day that I'm recording this,

895
00:54:42.920 --> 00:54:46.960
and it shows police going onto the roof after Crooks

896
00:54:47.280 --> 00:54:52.119
was shot. I need to clarify this is not bodycam footage.

897
00:54:52.159 --> 00:54:55.079
It is helmet cam footage from those three guys you

898
00:54:55.159 --> 00:54:58.639
saw jump on the stage when the Secret Service jumped

899
00:54:58.719 --> 00:55:03.239
onto Trump, the fatigues, and any other body cam footage

900
00:55:03.280 --> 00:55:07.599
you can find out there was provided after the incident occurred,

901
00:55:08.159 --> 00:55:12.440
not during, and not prior to the incident. That's important.

902
00:55:12.960 --> 00:55:16.800
And it gets even worse. When Cheetah was asked about

903
00:55:16.880 --> 00:55:22.840
the radio recordings from the Secret Service that day, guess

904
00:55:22.840 --> 00:55:28.519
what she said. There are no recordings of radio chatter

905
00:55:28.960 --> 00:55:38.119
at all. What the fuck, y'all. I'm not exactly sure

906
00:55:38.159 --> 00:55:43.480
what's going on here, but something is, you can bet

907
00:55:43.559 --> 00:55:46.559
on it. Now. This podcast series is gonna cover what

908
00:55:46.719 --> 00:55:51.360
is definitely the most historic controversial election of our lifetime,

909
00:55:51.400 --> 00:55:54.400
maybe in history. And there are a lot of different

910
00:55:54.440 --> 00:55:58.920
parts to this election year as it relates to scandals

911
00:55:59.039 --> 00:56:01.320
not only involved than the shooting, but how about the

912
00:56:01.320 --> 00:56:06.480
other scandals that have come out since the shooting. And

913
00:56:06.559 --> 00:56:11.840
I'm specifically talking about President Joe Biden, who in the

914
00:56:11.920 --> 00:56:16.159
week following the shooting has had well, let's just say,

915
00:56:16.159 --> 00:56:19.320
one hell of a week. So President Biden comes out

916
00:56:19.400 --> 00:56:22.679
last week and he says he would consider stepping down

917
00:56:23.159 --> 00:56:26.199
if something were to happen due to his health. This

918
00:56:26.400 --> 00:56:29.400
was asked after the debate, of course, and because so

919
00:56:29.559 --> 00:56:34.480
much pressure was on him due to his horrible performance

920
00:56:34.519 --> 00:56:38.039
from the Democratic Party. He came out and he said, Hey,

921
00:56:38.880 --> 00:56:40.599
the only thing that's going to cause me to step

922
00:56:40.679 --> 00:56:44.960
down is my health. Just a few hours after mentioning

923
00:56:45.079 --> 00:56:47.440
that his health would be the only thing stopping him

924
00:56:47.440 --> 00:56:53.119
from running, guess what, he gets COVID. Then a couple

925
00:56:53.239 --> 00:56:57.079
hours later, at an event, a lady comes out and

926
00:56:57.079 --> 00:57:01.559
she says, oh, unfortunately Biden won't be at the event.

927
00:57:01.840 --> 00:57:04.719
He has to cancel his plans. He won't be here

928
00:57:04.800 --> 00:57:08.920
because he tested positive and he's canceling upcoming dates as

929
00:57:09.000 --> 00:57:14.039
well as it relates to speaking events and such. Then

930
00:57:15.440 --> 00:57:18.199
not long after that, we get the news that President

931
00:57:18.239 --> 00:57:24.599
Biden decides he's not gonna seek reelection. Then right after

932
00:57:24.679 --> 00:57:28.360
that he tweets that Jill and I have decided to

933
00:57:28.559 --> 00:57:32.440
endorse Kamala Harris. A couple of minutes later, the Clintons

934
00:57:32.480 --> 00:57:35.679
come out, they endorse Kamala Harris. Then AOC comes out,

935
00:57:35.800 --> 00:57:41.880
she endorses, and finally everybody endorses Kamala Harris, including the Obamas.

936
00:57:42.400 --> 00:57:45.480
So people start digging into this. It was really strange

937
00:57:45.519 --> 00:57:50.119
because no one had technically seen or heard from Biden

938
00:57:50.480 --> 00:57:54.480
since he contracted COVID supposedly, and there's a story out

939
00:57:54.519 --> 00:57:58.880
there that was actually leaked from police officials speaking of course,

940
00:57:58.880 --> 00:58:04.119
on the condition that they aren't revealed, that say, there

941
00:58:04.199 --> 00:58:11.079
was an emergency situation involving the president, that these police

942
00:58:11.199 --> 00:58:14.800
officials were called and it was requested that the streets

943
00:58:14.840 --> 00:58:19.199
be closed so the President could be transported immediately to

944
00:58:19.280 --> 00:58:22.159
the hospital. So they start doing that, they start closing

945
00:58:22.199 --> 00:58:27.039
these streets. Then mysteriously there was a standdown order and

946
00:58:27.119 --> 00:58:30.800
a US Secret Service official told the Las Vegas Police

947
00:58:30.840 --> 00:58:34.119
Department that they were going to metivac the president to

948
00:58:34.280 --> 00:58:39.000
John Hopkins. Now, the rumor mill at this point is

949
00:58:39.039 --> 00:58:45.440
that Joe Biden was dying or possibly already dead, and

950
00:58:45.519 --> 00:58:48.079
I got to be honest. When I heard this, I thought, well,

951
00:58:48.199 --> 00:58:53.239
this is bullshit, crazy conspiracy theorists adding to conspiracies, that

952
00:58:53.400 --> 00:58:58.760
sort of thing. However, something happened on the twenty second

953
00:58:58.760 --> 00:59:03.440
of July the definitely had me thinking it could possibly

954
00:59:03.559 --> 00:59:08.480
be true. Kamala Harris, she's doing a campaign event. She's

955
00:59:08.519 --> 00:59:11.559
out there talking to people, right, and she's talking about

956
00:59:11.599 --> 00:59:14.960
the President, and you know, she's saying how much they

957
00:59:15.119 --> 00:59:18.079
loved the president and all that stuff. And there's a

958
00:59:18.280 --> 00:59:25.119
part that some say she had a Freudian slip. I

959
00:59:25.119 --> 00:59:29.239
think it's called and I want you to hear this club.

960
00:59:29.639 --> 00:59:32.519
It is so good to hear our president's voice.

961
00:59:32.880 --> 00:59:34.920
Joe, I know you're still on the on the call,

962
00:59:35.760 --> 00:59:37.239
and we've been talking every day.

963
00:59:37.480 --> 00:59:43.559
Love Joe and Jill, we really do. I know you're

964
00:59:43.679 --> 00:59:44.280
still there.

965
00:59:44.480 --> 00:59:46.079
You're not going anywhere, Joe.

966
00:59:49.039 --> 00:59:50.360
I love you.

967
00:59:50.639 --> 00:59:50.920
Joe.

968
00:59:51.920 --> 00:59:55.840
Now you heard she started to say, Joe, I hear

969
00:59:56.000 --> 00:59:59.360
you on the recording, and then she stops herself right

970
01:00:00.760 --> 01:00:04.559
and corrects herself. And there's a lot of people out

971
01:00:04.599 --> 01:00:09.880
there that say this was pre recorded. And let me

972
01:00:10.039 --> 01:00:13.360
educate everybody out there on something if they may not know.

973
01:00:13.760 --> 01:00:19.159
With AI and the capability of it. Nowadays, I can

974
01:00:19.199 --> 01:00:22.920
actually record my voice and make it sound like Joe Rogan's.

975
01:00:23.239 --> 01:00:29.119
It's easy. It is extremely possible to fake a voice,

976
01:00:29.519 --> 01:00:34.119
regardless of whether it's Joe Rogan, Jim Chapman, or Joe Biden.

977
01:00:34.519 --> 01:00:38.239
So I don't know the answer here, but it's definitely strange.

978
01:00:38.840 --> 01:00:43.599
Just today, as I'm recording this podcast, there is a

979
01:00:43.719 --> 01:00:48.880
video out there where Biden covers quote unquote passing the

980
01:00:49.000 --> 01:00:53.280
torch to defend democracy. And he's in the Oval Office.

981
01:00:53.719 --> 01:00:55.920
And I just told you no one's seen or heard

982
01:00:55.920 --> 01:01:00.719
from him since his COVID announcement other than that recording

983
01:01:01.159 --> 01:01:05.199
he did with Kamala. Well, that's still accurate. As I

984
01:01:05.239 --> 01:01:10.199
told you, there's such a thing as ai and people.

985
01:01:12.320 --> 01:01:16.320
I'm telling you, these days, with technology, it's not hard

986
01:01:16.519 --> 01:01:22.079
at all to take an old video of you sitting

987
01:01:22.119 --> 01:01:24.519
at a desk and making it look like you're talking

988
01:01:24.559 --> 01:01:28.079
in real time. I'm not saying that's what is occurring here.

989
01:01:28.440 --> 01:01:30.320
I want to be real clear on that. I don't

990
01:01:30.360 --> 01:01:37.400
think Biden is very, very sick on his deathbed or dead.

991
01:01:39.280 --> 01:01:44.039
I just haven't seen enough evidence yet to say that.

992
01:01:44.719 --> 01:01:48.199
But it's weird and it's worth talking about that's for sure.

993
01:01:48.920 --> 01:01:52.880
Now this podcast is pre recorded, so by now, by

994
01:01:52.920 --> 01:01:55.679
the time you're listening to this, the President may have

995
01:01:55.760 --> 01:01:59.199
come out in front of cameras, and I would recommend

996
01:01:59.239 --> 01:02:01.559
that he does if he hasn't done so. But as

997
01:02:01.599 --> 01:02:05.639
of this recording, no one has seen or heard from

998
01:02:05.800 --> 01:02:10.480
Joe Biden in over a week. Outside of that what's

999
01:02:10.519 --> 01:02:15.119
alleged to be his recorded voice in which he's speaking

1000
01:02:15.320 --> 01:02:19.320
to Kamala Harris that I just played you very strange.

1001
01:02:19.400 --> 01:02:23.239
And it's also important to mention that there was a

1002
01:02:23.360 --> 01:02:28.079
second day to the hearings in front of Congress, and

1003
01:02:28.480 --> 01:02:34.199
on that second day, Homeland Security, the FBI, in the

1004
01:02:34.239 --> 01:02:40.559
heads of the Secret Service all declined to testify in

1005
01:02:40.639 --> 01:02:45.719
front of the Congressional hearing committee that is investigating this

1006
01:02:46.119 --> 01:02:53.599
entire deal, and that should piss off every American. We

1007
01:02:53.760 --> 01:02:57.960
pay them. They shouldn't have a choice in the matter.

1008
01:03:00.000 --> 01:03:04.400
Want to say it again, if you want to avoid scandals,

1009
01:03:04.639 --> 01:03:10.360
if you want to avoid conspiracies, don't hide the information

1010
01:03:10.880 --> 01:03:18.519
from the American people, be transparent, show the fuck up,

1011
01:03:21.159 --> 01:03:24.440
and there you have it. We're going to bring you

1012
01:03:25.079 --> 01:03:29.519
more as it comes out. I promise you. I am

1013
01:03:29.639 --> 01:03:37.400
not backing off of this scandal, of this investigation one inch.

1014
01:03:39.760 --> 01:03:45.960
This cannot stand in the United States of America and

1015
01:03:46.119 --> 01:03:51.519
these people need to be held accountable, whoever they are

1016
01:03:51.920 --> 01:04:02.760
and wherever they are. And look, there is more of this.

1017
01:04:03.719 --> 01:04:07.000
We are going to get into, so much more than

1018
01:04:07.039 --> 01:04:10.440
what you've heard already, and we're going to bring it

1019
01:04:10.480 --> 01:04:13.760
to you fast and furious. There's still a lot I

1020
01:04:13.800 --> 01:04:17.800
have not covered, so look for that. Thank you again

1021
01:04:18.280 --> 01:04:24.000
for listening and for exposed scandalous files of the elite.

1022
01:04:24.599 --> 01:04:28.840
I'm your host, Jim Chapman. Much love,
