Secret Service Agent Suspended After Trump Assassination Attempt in Butler

 

A Secret Service agent assigned to protect Donald Trump has been suspended, along with several others from the Pittsburgh field office, following disciplinary action in the wake of the failed July 13, 2024, assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania.

 

 

The agent, identified as Myosoty Perez, was part of the security detail tasked with safeguarding the former president during the campaign event where he was shot. She was photographed accompanying Trump as he arrived at the rally and was reportedly one of the advance team members sent to secure the location ahead of time.

Perez’s attorney, Larry Berger, confirmed her suspension and said she had “fully cooperated already through all the investigations into the matter” and was now considering her next steps. “She was a site agent — she wasn’t in charge of overall security that day,” Berger clarified.

 

In total, six Secret Service agents have been suspended for between 10 and 45 days. One of those disciplined had been responsible for conducting a site walk-through and helping coordinate event security. In addition to Perez, four leaders from the Pittsburgh field office and a counter-sniper team member were also suspended.

 

The agency’s handling of the event has come under intense scrutiny, especially after it was revealed that the would-be assassin, Thomas Matthew Crooks, was able to crawl onto a rooftop and fire multiple shots at Trump. Crooks was ultimately killed by a counter-sniper.

 

The fallout from the incident has been severe. Two weeks after the shooting, Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle resigned amid bipartisan outrage. Cheatle, a 28-year veteran of the agency, was replaced by Sean Curran — who had been on stage with Trump during the attack and was appointed to the position by the former president in January.

 

While some agents faced disciplinary action, those present in the now-famous “Fight! Fight! Fight!” photo, which shows Trump moments after being shot with blood visible on his ear, were not punished. According to sources, “they did exactly what they were supposed to do that day.”

 

However, for those who lost loved ones at the rally, the explanations have been cold comfort. Helen Comperatore, widow of firefighter Corey Comperatore, who was killed by one of the bullets intended for Trump, lashed out at the Secret Service. “I think the Secret Service is garbage,” she told The Post. “All I’ve wanted this entire time was to sit down with the men who screwed up that day and find out why. Why? Why at that rally? Why at that one in Butler?”

 

Her frustration was palpable as she recounted the agency’s failings. “They never picked up radios that day. They brought the wrong cables for their drones. They were a hot mess. There had to be a reason why and I want to know.”

 

The suspensions mark the first wave of formal disciplinary action taken in response to the attempt on Trump’s life — but for families like the Comperatores, they may be only the beginning of what they feel is long-overdue accountability.

So what is the story here.

The fall guy  woman, get indefinitely (?) suspended while the other 6 morons

get between 10 and 45 days ?

 

Helen Comperatore got it right : “I think the Secret Service is garbage”

[OneManShow]

But still does not explain how Thomas Matthew Crooks, was able to "crawl onto a rooftop"(with presence of local police) and fire multiple shots at Trump. 🤔

 

[spidermike007]

None of this story makes any sense on any level, there were only three or four rooftops in the entire vicinity, they had drones examining the entire surroundings, they had Secret Service agents inspecting every rooftop, so how is this guy able to set up a 20 foot ladder on the side of one of those buildings, crawl up to a flat roof without being detected, even though agents were very close by on nearby rooftops, and fire off some shots?

 

The other aspect of the story that makes no sense is that Trump's ear healed in 5 days. I've talked to a few doctors about this and they say the one part of the body that will never heal is the ear, when the ear gets badly injured it does not regrow, and it does not repair itself. So something very, very fishy happened on that day in Butler field. 

 

I am not a conspiracy theorist though some will probably accuse me of being such but that whole incident made about as much sense as the so-called Epstein suicide.

Perez sure looks Messican. Where are ICE?

 

Crooks was a bad shot.

[black tabby12345]

Why blame Secret Service agents for the failed attempt of D.Trump's assassination in 2024?

 

Thomas M.C's lousy aim was solely  responsible for that instead.

He could have saved  at least 280000 Americans from sudden groundless job losses if he was the better marksman.

NOT a flat roof.........a SLOPED roof which is a hazardous location apparently, according to DEI health and safety and warm fuzzy regulations.

 

The sloped roof where a would-be assassin took aim at former President Donald Trump during a campaign rally in western Pennsylvania wasn’t safe enough for snipers.

 

This is a reason for not posting someone there, U.S. Secret Service Director Kim Cheatle said in an interview with ABC News on Tuesday.

 

“That building, in particular, has a sloped roof at its highest point,” she said. “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.”

 

“And so, you know, the decision was made to secure the building, from inside,” Cheatle added.

Okay that's reasonably good PR, and certainly a way for them to deflect, but the bottom line is there were drones in use with overhead views, and this man would have easily been detected on any sort of rooftop.

Watch the video again, notice how on the third attempt to reholster her wapyn, she has to grab a roll of fat and slide it out of the way to be able to make visual contact with her waste-line.

 

"Special Agent Body Positivity, the results of your physical exam are in.  According to government service body fat standards, you're half a pound short of obese."

 

"Thanks, chief.  Missed it by that much!"

 

What has DEI done for the secret service?  Check out how the leader of the free world is guarded by the overwhelming might of fallopian tubes here!

Seriously?  This is a special agent?

 

 

Think she'd be more suitable as a Rocky Horror cast member!

If her combat shooting fails for her fat, she then has to do her job as the human shield instead.

 

Even though it could be useless if  the hit man is the grand master of the practical shooting capable of taking out the target with head shots.

How far from Trump was the sniper?

Close enough for a "service pistol" to be of any use, however "fat" she was, or however quick she was "on the draw".

 

Ms Perez was sacked, what about the person in overall charge on that day, what about the person responsiblefor setting out and commanding the cordon (which manifestly failed), what about the person responsible for the drone surveillance (especially if they had brought the wrong cables)?

 

Heads must roll, must be seen to roll. A Latina female agent - just the job!

[proton]

Presidents need men protecting them, not short, fat DEI girlies who cannot even draw a gun and who panic at the first sign of an emergency.

Three possibilities:

1) it was a miracle - proof that God watches over him.

2) it is a marvellous tribute to the recuperative powers bestowed by a diet of McDonalds, KFC and Coke.

3) It was faked...

 

How wonderful that the photographer was present for the iconic perfectly framed shot of Donald Trump's "Iwo Jima" moment.

 

PS: the Iwo Jima flag raising photographs were faked. I don't deny that the flag was raised when the mountain was captured but the photos were subsequently staged.

People who have never shot at humans, or animals for that matter, will get "buck fever" and blow an easy shot, even though they can hit the bullseye from 300 yards away. There's always the likelihood, something many have thought, that he was hired and not acting alone, then sacrificed, much like Oswald was in the JFK assassination. Most anyone can shoot a gun for a short period and hit a pie plate at that distance every time.

Another DEI failure.

 

She was there to fulfill a quota.

 

Great. Until it all kicks off. Then you want the best man for the job.

So the woman was a "DEI failure", whereas the men just performed poorly.

Your definition of DEI is the Rethuglican shorthand for "Niggers, spics, and <deleted>".

Exactly. Several other people failed and they were men.

 

So it is dominantly an example of non-DEI hire failure!
