Secret Service under fire

@Jolly Interesting. I did not realize that they were short so many people.
How do you fix it?
For those that are on security, it is a tough job I would think. Significant travel and being away for "long"periods, etc.

One of the biggest complaints of the protection agents is they cannot have a life apart from the job.

(copied from a blog...)
Here are just a few inexplicable things he revealed:
- the Secret Service had no radio communications not only with the local police but also with the snipers
- most of the vital communications were made using texts over an overloaded cell phone network
- There are no recordings of the Secret Service communications, although there are of the locals
- Rowe's assertions about the responsibilities of the local snipers didn't actually come from the local snipers--it was just made up by the Secret Service (we would know much less were it not for the locals)
- the Secret Service command center was not co-located with the local police
- The investigators have YET to talk to the local police who were assisting the SS, including the snipers (after three weeks!)
- Butler was the VERY FIRST TIME that the Secret Service provided snipers for a Trump rally this election cycle
They communicated via text.

Saw that last one this weekend. It's almost like they wanted Trump killed.
Nah...

@George-K I thought after Sept 11, one of the things that was indicated as a major problem was lack of communications among different organizations. Obvlisouly, they have not solved things.

I’m telling you, protection at these types of events aren’t as tight as you’d think, especially outside of the security zone.

Lad, 150 yards in the prone position with a rifle is rock-throwing distance. I'd call that within the perimeter.

Why are they typing sh**t*ng or things like @ss@ssinate. Why aren’t they typing it out?

To avoid suppression algorithms
Exactly. Certain words like m-rder, r-pe, etc trigger the algorithm and it gets blocked/demonitized.

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

FFS, that is more frightening than any of this other DEI crap.
