Ritchie Torres Instagram – The attempt to scapegoat a rural police department for the security failures of July 13th is embarrassing excuse-making on the part of the Secret Service Director.
The Secret Service should admit full responsibility for creating a security perimeter so narrow that it fell within the firing range of an AR-15.
The Secret Service has a categorical duty to protect all major presidential candidates from all threats, regardless of where those threats lie in relation to the security perimeter.
The Secret Service’s core mission of protecting a presidential candidate cannot be outsourced to a local rural police department simply by creating a narrow security perimeter. | Posted on 18/Jul/2024 18:32:49
