I think you might be right. Just heard in an update she is taking a "the buck stops here" attitude. Maybe she won't last the week.

it should always be, "the best qualified-experienced",........ not...... "who can we hire to make us look good on paper to satisfy equal opportunity data"
too many greatly qualified people since as far back as i can remember were passed over, in favor of "data"
if you ain't got the education, or experience, or brains, talent, then why the fook do you think you deserve that job..????

WASHINGTON, July 16 (Reuters) -
The United States received intelligence from a human source in recent weeks about an Iranian plot to try to assassinate former President Donald Trump, CNN reported on Tuesday, citing people briefed on the matter.
CNN reported that there was no indication that the 20-year-old suspect in the shooting of Trump on Saturday was connected to the plot.
The U.S. Secret Service and the Trump campaign were made aware of the plot before Saturday's rally, a CNN reporter posted on X, citing a U.S. national security official.

You’d think that would have really encouraged them to cover that roof…
There is a bigger elephant in the room. Yes we should hire the best Canadate but the other issue is agencies have watered down trainjng to such a minimum standard they are setting their staff up for failure. Even some that should be and do get hired are set up for failure. I’ve said ghis before we see multiple examples of poor performance on body cameras every week!
So until the have a hard reset in police training these train wrecks are gonna pop up wether a female male whatever’

Secret Service Kimberly Cheatle has come forward with her first interview since the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump, blaming a sloped roof as the reason to try to secure the building from the inside.
'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,' she told ABC News in an interview Tuesday.
Meanwhile the Secret Service snipers were here: On a sloped roof!

Trump’s SS detail was subsequently increased at that point. Hmmm.

So, Trump gets shot, almost killed. No riots. No looting. No violence. No "peaceful protests". Wonder why?

The dumbing down of my former agency began with POTUS 44.
Fortunately it was early enough for me to dodge the DEI crap for my last two assignments.
The folks that I know that are still inside tell me the DEI stuff is insufferable with other offices dumping barely functional new hires, at one level, on them without any prior notice. Then the new hires are lazy whiners that produce crap that older more experienced have to redo their work. And the new hires are offended that their work has to be redone.
On a managerial level, the overhead also dumped new hires into high-level positions that they had no education & experience in the subject-matter fields they oversaw.
When legit issues came up then those new hires proceeded to go after experienced employees when they were told things wouldn't work.
Things really went south right after I retired, along with several others. Glad I made it out before the crap got too deep to climb out of before getting chewed on like others put up with before they ran for the door.

If I was still at my old agency I'd demand to see the sourcing and the analysis. It has become so schizophrenic on Iran. POTUS 44 and the current guy wants to deal with them, but they don't hesitate to use the Persians as a boogeyman. And when you have proof of their bad intentions for decades we treat them with kid gloves.Trump’s SS detail was subsequently increased at that point. Hmmm.
Looks like we’re moving into “grassy gnoll” territory…

Well it is hard to imagine that much incompetence naturally occurring at one space in time.
The fact that LE knew the shooter was there somewhere almost a half an hour before he took the first shot and yet Trump was still on stage. That alone makes me think something was fishy.
