Secret Service Asleep at the Switch

After the immigration order I no longer care if someone kills Obama. 

Doesn't make me a terrorist; it just means I'm at the point where I no longer care about the figurehead who is now dictator. What an asshole.

Besides, Obummer isn't doing anything that would make those in power assassinate him; he is serving bankers, Israel, and the corporate elite. Why would they want kill him?

"Secret Service blunders eased way for White House intruder" by Michael S. Schmidt, New York Times  November 14, 2014

WASHINGTON — An intruder was able to climb a fence and enter the White House in September because of a succession of “performance, organizational, technical” and other failures by the Secret Service, according to a damning review of the incident by the Department of Homeland Security.

The review found that the Secret Service’s alarm systems and radios failed to function properly, and that many of the responding officers did not see the intruder as he climbed over the fence, delaying their response.

It said that Omar Gonzalez, the man charged in the incident, could have been stopped by a Secret Service officer who was stationed on the North Lawn with an attack dog. But the officer did not realize that an intruder had made it over the fence because he was sitting in his van talking on his personal cellphone.

The officer did not have his radio earpiece in, and had left the second radio he was supposed to have in his locker. It was only after he saw another officer running toward Gonzalez that he was alerted to the incident. At that point, the officer gave the dog the command to attack, but the dog had not had a chance to “lock onto” the intruder “and may not have seen” him at all, according to the review. Gonzalez continued into the White House.

Oh, the dog didn't bark, huh?

The review has not been made public, but members of Congress were briefed on it Thursday. An executive summary was obtained The New York Times.

The review of the Sept. 19 incident is part of a much broader investigation of the Secret Service being conducted by the deputy secretary of Homeland Security, Alejandro Mayorkas. That investigation is focused on other incidents in which the White House fence was scaled and how security at the White House could be improved.

That's what this false flag psyop hoax is all about: further insulating themselves from the public even further. What a bunch of tyrants.

Mayorkas is also expected to provide recommendations on who should succeed Julia Pierson as the Secret Service’s next director. Pierson resigned after the September incident amid criticism over other security lapses by the agency.

In addition to faulting the Secret Service for its handling of the intrusion, the review also found the agency mishandled its investigation of Gonzalez in the months before he succeeded in entering the White House. He first came to the attention of authorities in July when he was arrested on gun charges in Virginia. A month later, he was stopped outside the White House carrying a hatchet but was not arrested.

The report also said that because of staffing shortages, the uniformed Secret Service officers who are responsible for protecting the White House did not receive adequate training. 

Because all the tax loot goes to Israel, Wall Street, the war machine, and well-connected corporations.

But the bulk of the report focuses on what happened on Sept. 19, from the time officers recognized Gonzalez outside the White House. Gonzalez did not show any odd behavior, so the officers did not talk to him or alert their supervisors.

An hour later, at 7:19 p.m., officers on Pennsylvania Avenue spotted him climbing over the fence at a point where one of the ornamental spikes was missing.

One officer made a call over his radio, and an alarm was sounded. Two officers approached Gonzalez with their firearms pointed at him and told him to stop. Gonzalez continued running, and the officers decided not to use lethal force because they did not believe he was armed.

An officer stationed at the North Portico door could not hear on the radio what was occurring and had an obstructed view. Instead of remaining at the door, the officer took out his weapon and took cover behind a pillar. The officer told him to stop. But Gonzalez continued running and the officer did not shoot him, also because he did not believe Gonzalez was armed. It was later discovered that Gonzalez had a knife.

The doors at the North Portico were closed and the officer assumed they were locked. But the doors were not locked, and Gonzalez entered the White House. A female officer stationed inside the door “heard unintelligible noise on her radio.” The emergency communication system at her station had been muted. As she tried to lock the doors, Gonzalez “knocked her backward.” She told him to stop but he continued on.

Gonzalez entered the East Room, but then exited, heading down the hallway. Two officers stationed in the White House, assisted by two plainclothes agents who had just finished their shifts, tackled him.

--more--"

Oh, the horror of another sympathy grabbing psyop.
