Here's Why Secret Service Director Didn't Post Anyone on the Roof Where Sniper Sniped

Anthony Bernal is a senior advisor to First Lady Jill Biden since 2020 and people fear him. As the New York Post  reported, four members of Biden's inner circle said Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle was well-liked by Doctor Jill Biden as well as Bernal. So guess what, she was appointed to the position based on that. 

“Cheatle served on Doctor Biden’s second lady detail and Anthony pushed for her,” a Democratic insider told The Post. “Anthony has no national security or law enforcement experience. He should have no influence over the selection of the USSS director.” Basically, Bernal knows as much about security as Doctor Jill knows about medicine, in spite of what Joy Behar believes. 

“I heard at the time she was being considered for director that Anthony had pushed her forward as an option,” another close source to the administration said.

But Cheatle also does not appear to have a good grasp on what it takes to protect a "protectee." At least she is "the first" woman to head the agency, because that crap is more important to Biden than assigning "the best" for positions within the administration. So we get the first Black, lesbian White House Press Secretary, the first Black/Asian female Vice President, the first gay Transportation Secretary, the first Black Secretary of Defense; the first Native American Cabinet Secretary, serving as Secretary of the Interior, the first woman to serve as Secretary of the Treasury, the first immigrant and first Latino to serve as Secretary of Homeland Security, the first transgender federal official to be confirmed by the Senate, serving as Assistant Secretary for Health, and I could go on and on.

Biden is obsessed with "firsts," as if that is by necessity a good thing, when all the evidence to this proves otherwise. 

Cheatle is going to, and needs to be fired. This much is certain.

She has made the most ridiculous observation as to why nobody was place on the roof the sniper used to shoot at the former President.

Here is what this DEI pick told ABC News:

“That building in particular has a sloped roof at its highest point. And so, you know, there’s a safety factor that would be considered there that we wouldn’t want to put somebody up on a sloped roof. And so, you know, the decision was made to secure the building from inside.” 

Good thing it wasn't raining slightly or she might have had the entire Secret Service detail stay inside so as not to catch their death of cold.

She's an idiot when it comes to running this agency. The sniper didn't care a fiddler's fart about the slope of the roof. In fact, it offered him some cover while he waited to shoot. Instead, Cheatle thought she would look good, and perhaps grab a few virtue signaling points from the press.

No, seriously, she's a total idiot and has no business jeopardizing the lives of the protectees under the watch of the Secret Service. She even admitted they knew about the building rooftop and its vulnerability, but she still opted not to position agents there.

The sniper, Thomas Matthew Crooks, had a clear line of sight to Trump because he was a mere 130 yards away--a distance bootcamp recruits use at the rifle range to qualify. It's a piece of cake to hit the bullseye if you know how to sight in, judge your wind, and have a steady position, which Crooks had in the prone position.

And what is with having short women guard Trump? They come up to the lower part of his neck and some of them don't even know how to reholster their weapon. Should women even have the job of putting their lives on the line for a man when it's the duty of men to protect their women?

This is the worst Secret Service security failure since 1981. She claims the "buck stops with me," but she refuses to resign. Maybe she needs the money, but that seems a bit less important than the lives of our leaders. 

Anyway, Cheatle needs to go. Now. Period.

Oh, by the way, and this is a big 'by the way,' Fox News is reporting that Cheatle's agency listed the shooter, Thomas Matthew Crooks, as "a potential person of suspicion."

So he bought 50 rounds the day before the rally, they had him listed as a potential shooter, and did nothing to stop the attempted assassination.

I am not a conspiracy theorist, but hey.

Cheatle is in way over her head, but as the "first woman to head the Secret Service," she'll probably not go anywhere until Donald Trump becomes our 47th President.
