Ky talk station Tuesdays at this time means we are going to do a Daniel
Davis deeve died with my guests, retired Lieutenant Colonel Daniel Davis. Normally,
Daniel and I are talking about foreign affairs, the situation unfolding in Ukraine,
which doesn't look like it gets any better anytime. But today we're actually going
to pivot over to something, of course that is on everybody's mind, the
massive, massive, and I've been referring to it with a nod to you,
Daniel Davis, Charlie Foxtrot. That was Saturday, in the effort to
assassinate Donald Trump. What went right in this other than the immediate response where
they surrounded Donald Trump as they should have and got him off that stage.
By all accounts, that was done properly. But here, let me just
read you one sentence from a friend of mine who has a storied career in
law enforcement, more than thirty years in law enforcement. He has sent me
this. He took the USSS training class, all right, he had reason
to do. That is in charge of some agents as some sites. Anyway,
they stress you always always always control the high point within five hundred one
thousand yards site distance of the podium. They tried to put USSS counter sniper
teams on the highest points, etc. Et cetera. Sir, I shoot
modern sporting rifles regularly. I know how easy it is to hit a target
with one. At one hundred and fifty yards. That was the most perfect
vantage point to take a shot at the former President Donald Trump, and yet
no one was on the dann roof for even paying attention your analysis, Daniel
Davis, welcome back. Hell well, thanks for having me, Brian.
But yeah, I'm just just this is just as much of a head scratcher
for me as it is for you and Charlie Foxtrott is certainly a one of
the most app descriptions from it, and you know, and it just gets
a lot worse when you look at it. Even I'll start off on the
podium, it was certainly good the way they immediately just literally leapt on him,
and that was fine. But then there was some problems even after that,
because after they stood him up, they got kind of around him,
but his head was still above everyone. It was still completely visible, and
they stood there for what seemed like an eternity. Now at that particular moment,
nobody knows if there's one shooter, if there's multiple shooters, if this
was designed to draw the fire and the attention of everybody else. And then
when they're looking that way, then another shooter pops up here, which is
entirely reasonable and possible from an enemy perspective. They don't know that, so
they have to assume it's a dangerous situation and immediately get him out of the
scene. But for whatever reason, they just stood there for an interminable period
and then finally got him out. In all the way he's going down those
stairs you see, I mean from the chest up, you see him visible
most of the time. So I don't even understand that part of it.
But man, it gets a lot worse when you start looking at that location,
because I'll just tell you that position there, when you look at the
aerial shot of this situation, that it's one of only like three or four
places there even could be an enemy snapper, and that's of course the primary
place you would be. And there needs to be some hard questions, asking
some answers demand of the people who were in charge of setting this up,
because there's no I mean, you used to say to yourself, there it's
self evidently obvious why you would not even leave such a direct line of shot.
That was the c for danger spots, and yet it wasn't even covered
well. And are learning today the local police had a watch post inside the
building that punk murderer climbed on top of, and then a police officer actually
climbed up a ladder saw him. He turned around and pointed his rifle at
him, and the police officer slunk back down the ladder. No word that
he tried to communicate with anybody, raising all kinds of questions, which we've
been talking about a lot this morning. Do they not have a unified comms
between the Secret Service and local law enforcement? Hood He got on a radio
and said, there's a guy in a building with a gun. For God's
sake, I mean yeah, And you know now I actually cover this in
some detail in a show on my channel last not where I methodically looked at
the timeline here and it is it is again. I stress there needs to
be some really hard answers or questions asked and answers given because something is not
lining up here. I'm just gonna be honest with you. When you see
many minutes I mean as many as four minutes where the crowd on the ground
is screaming, there's the guy's got a gun and they have cameras showing him
literally crawling up on there. You see policemen on the ground, and yet
nothing's being done. And you see these guys, they have microphones on their
face. Why aren't they calling somebody? And then why isn't the Secret Service
immediately getting Trump off the stage before finding out if the guys got a weapon
or not. And then you see these guys on the roof with this huge
scope looking right at this guy. Why did they not say something because they
were also miked up to say shoot or shooter, get the president off the
stage. None of those things happened. And there needs to be a thorough
investigation here and just saying oh, I'm sorry, we made a mistake.
I'm not sure that that's going to cover this one. Well, I agree
with you all day long. But then again, you know, lot of
people have they look at the war and report on the Kennedy assassination. Nobody's
believed that that came out what a year plus later after the assassination. How
long are we going to be on pins and needles on this before we finally
get a definitive answer on the reason for this epic failure on so many levels.
You know, I've been seeing already some of the Secret Service officials talking
like, well, this is going to be a thorough investigation. It'll take
a long time. Okay, five do a long thorough investigation, but you
need one right now. And I mean something that somebody else is looking at,
not just the people in the Secret Service, like an external agency that's
going to find out what's happening, because we still have a campaign to get
through. We still have the president himself that needs to be protected. And
if there is systemic errors in the way that they conduct these things, it
needs to be identified today, not six months or six years from now.
Well you know it as well as I know. We live in the day
of the Internet and a lot of conspiracy theories swirling around this one. And
I'm not that kind of guy. I like to wait until I get my
facts before I draw my conclusions. But as bad as this was and the
failures on so many levels, even novices can point to why in the hell
wouldn't they do X, Y or z uh this one? This one looks
really really bad, Daniel Davis, and I think a lot of folks have
lost their respect for letter at agencies generally. So if the FBI is going
to investigate this, I think there's a sort of measure of skepticism out there
they're ever going to get the real answer? Well, who's to argue with
you? I mean, we've been lied to so many times. I mean,
this is not an R or a D issue here. This is a
government issue, and it's across the board. Uh, And there is substantial
loss of trust in the government of what anybody's saying. Because when you can
see with you're on eyest it's something is deeply, deeply amiss. I mean,
I even the stuff I talked about on my show yesterday were I chronicled
to all these things. I can't come to a conclusion because I don't have
enough information what may or may not happened. He could have just been grossing
confidence, but it could have been something else as well, and who might
have been behind that. I don't have any way of knowing, but somebody
needs to find out something, and maybe we have multiple agencies oversee this.
I don't know what the answer is, but I do know that things are
not lining up with any kind of common sense and logic. Well, my
popcorn will remain out on this one. Daniel Davis Deep Dive find it easily
