by Michael Snyder, End Of The American Dream:
All throughout human history, leaders of nations have been guarded by elite warriors. That only makes sense, because there is so much to lose if a king or a president is killed. So considering the fact that we are currently the most powerful country on the entire planet, you would think that the people that are protecting our national leaders would be extraordinarily impressive. But actually the opposite is true. On Saturday, we had a bunch of obvious DEI hires trying to protect Donald Trump, and he almost died.

Members of the crowd could see a man with a gun up there, but the Secret Service didn’t take action and they allowed Trump to speak anyway.
Either this was incompetence on a level that is difficult to comprehend, or something else was going on.
Once Trump was hit, Secret Service agents rushed to the stage.
But as Christopher Rufo has pointed out, the female agent that was attempting to shield his torso was way too short, “leaving his head and neck exposed after he stood up”…
He said: “Scene one: after President Trump ducks, a group of agents leaps to him and protects him with their bodies. A female agent who rushes to the stage acts bravely, without a doubt, but the point of the ‘huddle’ is to protect the president. The agent was much shorter than President Trump, leaving his head and neck exposed after he stood up.”
If a second shooter had been ready to shoot at that point, Trump would have been in grave danger.
But at least that first female agent was trying to do the right thing.
Another female agent on the stage appeared to be cowering behind Trump.
It took the Secret Service an eternity to get Trump off the stage and to his vehicle.
After finally arriving at the vehicle, three female agents appeared to be very frightened and very confused…
Then, he added, “Scene two: as Trump enters the escape vehicle, a female Secret Service agent fumbles her gun and cannot find her holster; another female agent appears confused and, in the moment of crisis, decides to use both of her hands to put on her sunglasses; a third looks frightened and uncertain.”
On Twitter, Michael Yon did not hold back as he criticized these agents…
Absolute humiliation for this gaggle of female Secret Service Agents.
Look at the disorder:
– Can’t holster weapons
– Gear falling to the ground
– Erratic, fearful movements
– No show of force, composureDEI Secret Service make Presidents LESS Safe
Look, I am sure that these women are very nice people.
But they are not suited for this sort of work.
Let’s not fool ourselves.
Not everyone is suited for every type of work. Personally, there are many jobs that I would be terrible at.
Why is it so hard for our society to admit this?
Everyone is good at something, and those that are good at particular tasks should be hired to perform those tasks.
Needless to say, Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle should not be serving in her current position. According to the New York Post, she was hired because Jill Biden personally pushed for her…
Embattled Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle, who is facing congressional outcry and calls to resign over security lapses leading to former President Donald Trump’s near-assassination Saturday, landed her role thanks largely to a close relationship with first lady Jill Biden, The Post has learned.
After everything that has happened, Cheatle says that she has no plans to resign.
So she is going to continue to have an opportunity to reshape the Secret Service.
It is being reported that her goal is to have 30 percent of all Secret Service agents be women by the year 2030…
In a statement Monday, which did not acknowledge the agency’s failings in any way, the Secret Service chief touted “changes” would be coming to Trump’s security apparatus for the duration of the campaign.
But the lukewarm missive did little to quiet the doubters, who have lambasted Cheatle for prioritizing woke “Diversity, Equity and Inclusion” initiatives — like pledging to make the Secret Service 30% women by 2030 — over providing robust and effective security.
If a woman is the best candidate for the job, then hire that woman.
But the women that were attempting to protect Trump on Saturday should definitely be doing something else.
Former FBI Assistant Director Chris Swecker was absolutely horrified by their performance…
On the day of the shooting, Trump’s security detail included three women, who former FBI Assistant Director Chris Swecker told The Post appeared totally ill equipped when Crooks opened fire.
“The women I saw up there with the president — they looked like they were running in circles. One didn’t know how to holster, the other one didn’t seem to know what to do, and another one seemed not to be able to find her holster,” he said.
“DEI is one thing, competence and effectiveness is another, and I saw DEI out there.”
This is not about giving everyone a chance.
Personally, I would love to have the chance to play in the NFL.
But if I was given the opportunity, I would be the worst player in the league by a very wide margin and I would probably get very seriously hurt.
Of course the Secret Service is far more important than the NFL. If a competent sniper had been targeting Trump on Saturday, the ultimate outcome would have been very different…
