Revolver has a story this morning discussion the assassination attempt on Trump in Butler P.A. and how Patel and Bongino seem to be covering it up.

As the author asks, if there is "nothing there" as the FBI is asserting why are there two cases in Federal court. while the details of those cases aren't given it seems likely they are about security breeches and who was involved.

Let us not forget; Crooks was walking around earlier with his rifle over his shoulder and in fact was photographed by law enforcement. The building he shot from was just outside of the perimeter the fBI drew, and well within rifle range. There were law-enforcement in that building (a building owned by a corporation wit deep ties to the Democratic Party) but not one single person on the roof, the logical spot to shoot from. Crooks had to be the absolutely luckiest human being alive to make it that far.

Then there is the matter of how it was handled. A policeman came on the roof, saw Crooks with a gun, and promptly left instead of doing his job. Then the Secret Service shot and killed Crooks. Within days the Secret Service had completely scrubbed the crime scene, and in fact they ordered the body of Crooks to be cremated before the medical examiner had given it a proper examination.

Then the FBI hemmed and hawed and the head was forced to resign, but apparently nobody else was sacked - not in the Secret Service,not anywhere. The story was quickly brushed under the rug.

And now Paatel and Bongino are saying "nothing to see here" and closing the case.

If there is nothing to see here why don't they release all the records? I'm sorry but they are lying to us.

So why would they lie? I see several possible reasons:

1. They've been Wrayasized, gone native. Christopher Wray did this, turned into a company man after being appointed. There is great peer pressure to be "one of the guys" and it's easier to protect them than to prosecute their own.

2. They fear damaging the reputation of the agency.

3. They are trying to dig all the way to the roots and hope not to frighten off anyone, not to tip their hand.

We all know Patel and Bongino's bonafides; that is not in question. But We've seen good men turn bad once in positions like this in the past. Just look at Jeff sessions after he became Attorney General.

I don't believe it. I also don't believe it when the administration said Biden was telling the truth about the drones flying all over the place; those were NOT hobbyist drones. Too many eye-witnesses, even people who know such things, disagreed.

I don't like secrets, especially from an Administration that promised transparency. This is just another secret.

If it was not, why aren't heads rolling in the Secret Service and FBI for the gross incompetence of that day? It's one thing to say "there was no conspiracy" but it's another to let dereliction of duty go unpunished. We need an accounting of exactly who was involved and how they screwed it up. Why aren't the heads of the FBI providing that.

If you believe they have told us the truth I have a very lovely bridge that spans the river from Manhattan to Brooklyn...

I've argued this is exactly what a hit by the CIA would look like. Because of it's high profile they would HAVE to make it look like an amateur production. So they find some idiot do to the job for them. It's even in their manual, if you care to look it up (I once posted it; it says plainly that assassinations should generally be carried out in a manner that avoids direct involvement by the Company when possible.) What the CIA would do (or another agency) is facilitate - clear the path for the assassin. Somebody sure did seem to clear a path for this pinhead.

Remember too Patel and Bongino have hostages to fate - wives, parents, children, sisters and brothers, nieces and nephews. Be a shame if anything happened to them.

Who can stand up to pressure like that? I couldn't. I'd probably let it go too to save the lives of my loved ones. This is how the mafia works and how the CIA works overseas.

I imagine we'll never know the Truth. But of course if they are allowed to get away with this they will do it again. You can't come to an arrangement with people like that.

Our government is like the Mafia only it's making laws to make what they do all legal and cover what they do that isn't. Don Corleone could only dream of such power.
