Someone still has to explain how this kid knew exactly where to go and how a detail that does the same thing over and over and over, left that zone of what is supposed to be a protective sphere unprotected. It does not make sense and explaining it away as incompetence doesnt wash
I came across the footage of his family after the shots and my eyes started watering.. truly sad. I’m so sorry for him and his family. They lost a real man that day
Horrible, horrible thing… My prayers are with the family, that man was a firefighter!!! We lost a good one, his passing will not be in vain! We will unite and get much stronger because of it! Love for the family, must be absolutely gutting. We love you and we are with you!
Amazing interview. Thanks guys. On a side note; many years ago I listened to Tim on an interview and heard what a great man was. I was so inspired, that day I quit drugs and took many steps to make a 180 in my life. I’ve never been happier/more successful than I am today. Thanks Tim.
Bringing in his own security is what I was thinking. Funny I saw on TicToc where a bunch of Vets all volunteered their services to protect him for free.
Sadly, we now KNOW this was a failed SET UP. The ONLY thing that has a chance at keeping President Trump alive *IS* to surround him with capable & LOYAL VETS. The same VETS.who were trained by the very “Deep State” for their “GWOT” warmongering. The same veterans who came back to the typical lack of medical care.
I’m blown away by all the depth of detail,insight, and NOW a new understanding of how seriously the Secret Service FAILED. Thank you for a new understanding of all that goes into protecting our President.
Wow, I wasn't planning of spending an hour of my life watching some special force guy on a you tube channel but Tim is the real deal and I'm glad I did. Very educational
As former state level LEO I was shocked by what I saw. I left my job 13 years ago because I started thinking the criminals I was investigating had more morals than my command staff. Don’t even get me started on how the police hiring standards are incredibly low now compared to when I entered.
As a female construction worker. I 💯% agree with what TK said about DEI. If you can do it great. If you cannot we should not lower standards. Outliers are outliers. You don’t pick a quota like 30% female or any other minority. Who is most qualified? That is fair, honest and safe for everyone. It’s insulting to the minorities who do have what it takes. Great episode. Thank you.
In my lifetime I’ve met one woman steel worker. We played on the same women’s soccer team years ago. She worked the shipyards and construction in Portland Oregon. She said her union boss asked her why their campaign to recruit more women was failing, and how they could improve it to welcome more women into their union. She said it’s mainly that not that many women are interested in becoming steel workers. Also, as you say, you have to be able to physically and safely do the work. She said great money, when they had work.
Exactly. Feminism was supposed to be about equal opportunity, not forced diversity for the sake of being diverse. The best man or woman for each and every job, period. That’s how a nation functions at its full potential
The first informed conversation I have seen on this incident. Tim Kennedy is the first person I have seen explaining the likely Rules of Engagement & Range Cards from a SME perspective. Well done

@@Awareness_With_Dennis All the drones and all the spare drones... they ALL malfunctioned at the same time? 🤔 Sorry, it's almost as good an excuse as the sloped roof 🤦♀ And they still thought it was a good idea to let Trump on the stage 😳
How did a 20 year old socially inept kid outsmart the Secret Service, Sheriff's dept, local police, and tip toe past a building full of police and set up a sniper post on top of the police 'counter sniper' position?
Best explanation so far. About Trump - while I was going to college in NYC in early 80's is when I first got to know of him and how he cleaned up seedy 42nd street. The violence and all were pretty bad then. His character raising his fist with 'Fight, Fight, Fight' I already kind of knew. It was hard trying to explain things about Trump decades later to people who just hates him not knowing the full story and regard him as a buffoon. And yes he's 'built differently' and I regard him as a maverick - like Howard Hughes, Ernest Hemingway. All great American men.
Great show. One of the greatest bravest heroes of World War II was a gorgeous tiny British/French SOE woman named Violet Szabo. She was parachuted into France ahead of the Normandy invasion. Also the most feared spy in WW2 was one legged American spy Virginia Hall who Nazis' named the "limping lady". She escaped from France by walking over the Pyrenees mountains. Oh and two Dutch teenaged girls who repeatedly lured Nazi officers into forest and dispatched them. Also the most decorated soldier in World War II was Audie Murphy 5 ft tall. As Teddy Roosevelt said it's not the size of the dog in the fight but the size of the fight in the dog.
This is why podcasts are valuable: bring on someone who actually knows what the fuck they're talking about for an HOUR instead of minutes. Thanks for the informing pod
I’m a 71 year old Marine and I couldn’t phantom the level of incompetence I saw on Saturday. Thank God our prayers were answered that protect President Trump. Enjoyed the discussion between the two of you! Keep up the great content! God bless.
Tim has made so many great points. I have zero tactical knowledge, and I was thinking the security team looked more panicked than Trump. I love the insight Tim brings to this situation. Much appreciated
The Director of the Secret Service said they didn't post snipers on the roof the kid shot from because it was a sloped roof and a safety hazard for personnel. Unreal.
On the assessment part that you talked about, I’m in full agreement of your statement. I personally have seen a 98LB female complete a physical function 300LB male could not to pass a physical requirement to obtain an open job position and was the person in evaluating the physical part. The male applicant stated that he could not complete the task and that it was a two-man job and I had to call in a 98LB experienced Skinny 5,5’ female to demonstrate that this could be done by one person to drive home it can be done to give that male an opportunity to complete the physical task and he refused and therefore was not hired. I am confident in this statement that if a smaller female had the wherewithal and the training with experience would have brought Trump down onto the deck immediately hi whatever means necessary while all the other agents were still getting them that would reduce the field of fire vulnerability of Trump getting hit while the other agents were still arriving by creating as much cover as possible during a shooting event by whatever means necessary in my mind is the primary objective and male nor female is irrelevant in this, would you not agree?
Tim Kennedy is not only the top of line professional but a wise , Honorable and competent man who is so right about everything ! Thank you for your sevice ! Great interview!👍
Ran into Tim Kennedy out shopping here in the Austin area. I said hi and mentioned my father was a Vet of Vietnam War and the first Iraq war and I was a fan. He's one of the nicest guys and the personality you see here is all him.
Fascinating..It would be such an honor to just sit and quietly listen to these special forces vets tell war stories. Blows my mind the life they've lived, what they've been trained to do and then gone and done it.. Numerous times and still manage to go home alive and somewhat intact.. I am so grateful for your bravery and for every warrior that didn't make it home I thank you for your ultimate sacrifice for your country . ♥️ I hope someday I could buy y'all a beer or 2..may God bless you all
Heard someone say where is the evidence of a conspiracy... my only thought is, you dont think that Empty roof was enough evidence? Incompetence on that level is compliance
The roof of my own home has a near identical pitch. I climb onto my roof several times a year to remove leaves from my gutters. Never once have I felt unsafe or unstable on that surface. I am however astonished that the director would use the “too dangerous” excuse. She is breathtaking in her attempt to fob such a weak excuse at us.
In answer to your question, the Secret Service Chief is a Jill Biden favorite; of course, first, not qualified to hold the job, and second a woman. You cannot have a woman Secret Service Chief. Notice how she hasn’t been fired. The Dem-Left is practicing its usual, no accountability.
This is like day 6 of sniper school, building a range card! This was insane, as a sniper/instructor for 20+ years. It was a 150yd shot, you could make with your eyes closed. I'm still trying to wrap my head around it. The ICS system was developed decades ago to de-conflict local/state/Fed commication issues.
decades ago . Wow. yeah I have heard a few times over past yrs that comms issues were addressed after 9/11 b/c it was such a big factor. I used to think it was talking about the intelligence side/info sharing but I guess it applies to comms in field as well? I think I remember something about police/fire/govn't agencies not being able to coordinate on day of attack 9/11
The saddest thing, seeing this 2 weeks later, is how the media has memory holed this story. They WILL NOT let this be a contributing factor in the public’s opinion. WE CAN NOT FORGET
As a Marine I am one that disagrees with females in combat roles- why because most females can’t handle combat. The secret service women that were assigned to the detail for President Trump proves this.
As a former SEAL with very similar experiences, thank God someone with a bigger soap box than me is voicing my exact thoughts. Thank you, Kennedy! DEI only works if standards are NOT lowered or as the woke say, “adjusted”.
As a female veteran, I concur that there should not even be different physical fitness standards for males and females. You either have what it takes or you don't. It's not a matter of privilege but a matter of national security!
@@karolinaska6836You're right about that!!! Several of the females that I served with told me they refused to use adjusted standards & followed the men's standards! Made me proud!!!
The question I’m seeing no one ask on these deconstruction videos is: why the hell was Trump left speaking on stage for 4 minutes knowing there was an imminent threat?
One of THE best takes on the events. I'm impressed at how little we regular folk will never understand what it means to be this type of expert. It's important to hear the truth. Bro is solid. The mainstream media need to hear this.
I find him incredibly annoying and he's not giving any insight. Don't think I can finish watching this. The machismo and over emotionality, and he doesn't answer the questions directly. Doesn't seem like someone who would be calm cool and collected in the face of a tense situation.
@@darianbalcom8777 I understand completely how you could think that and the knee-jerk recoil from the machismo but imagine if you were in a life or death situation and you could pick Tim or one of the female SS agents on the stage with Trump last Saturday. Who would you pick? You don’t have to like the person to make the smart choice. The man knows his job inside and out, likely with the same competency and minutia detail that you know your own. Military needs these type of abrasive personality people 🤷♂
37:00 As the proud owner of a Barrett M107 chambered in .50bmg I can confidently say that it will do absolutely ZERO damage if the projectile itself does not make physical contact with the target. The crack of the projectile breaking the sound barrier will probably ring your eardrum if it’s close enough but other than that it will do no damage.
Yeah man, Former infantryman here.. i got mad respect for my brethren in arms especially those that have the level of training this man does however… he loses so much credibility for talking out of his ass like that… i genuinely find motivation from these guys but that statement right there had me smh…
I just watched a guy prove it on RUclips with 3 white claws 2 in front 1 in back with a can space in between….the back one blew up a piece of tipped one of the other cans over the other one didn’t even move lol
As he pointed out, a sniper's first responsibility is observation not shooting. The most disturbing aspect of all this isn't why they didn't shoot sooner. It's their apparent failure to signal SS on the ground to get the President offstage during the minutes leading up to the shooting.
They are saying that without a rifle in sight, they couldn't be sure he was an active threat. But if communication was as it should have been, they would have known from the officer who climbed the ladder that the suspect DID have a gun. Do they need to see it, or simply know it exists? Apparently the former. That all being said, the rifle had to be visible for at least 4-5 seconds as he set up for his shot and then fired 5/6 times. So the whole point is mute. Those snipers should have fired after 1-2 seconds of it being visible. Not wincing from the audible gunshots and then reacting.
Thank you for your explanation. I highly suspect that whoever mapouts out the security forTrump is either incompetent or sloppy by design. Someone wants to take out or disable him badly ????
@@ClayAsbury122that’s the issue. They were informed initially that the building was secure and then somewhere the communication between groups broke down. It is reasonable to assume that they wouldn’t know for sure if this was a credible threat or another LEO taking up a position. Trust me it’s a sticky situation. In Iraq we had ROEs where we could not shoot unless shot at which put us at a severe disadvantage. This is just how the US govt rolls and unfortunately people pay the price for it.
Thank you for the clear and concise discussion on this matter. As a veteran, I can tell you my goal was always the “men’s” version of every test or die trying. I used to scream at women who did the 80% effort of their requirements BS. I screamed “you are the reason women aren’t taken seriously.” I demanded of myself every day, I will not be the reason anyone dies or gets hurt. I can be mushy as a marshmallow as a wife and mother but as my service spouse said to anyone who would listen “she is hard as Christmas candy” as a soldier. I didn’t know he did this until after I had left the service. It is the best compliment ever. DEI = Did not EARN it.
Epic episode. This is one of the best interviews I’ve ever seen - let your expert guest do the talking and ask the right questions at the right time. Kudos, Chris - this is next level.
Rarely have I come upon such an intelligent discussion. I was riveted by the whole thing. Extremely well thought out and incisive questions and a fascinating guest with not only incredible knowledge, but very eloquent and well spoken. Fabulous content. Well done!
One of my first thoughts about the Mr. Trump Deletion attempt, was who were the people in charge outside his campaign, responsible for making decisions for his safety? Next, is there possibly anything suspicious behind the curtain, a smoking pew-pew so to speak. 🤔 My next assumption was, the individuals who have the most to lose are the people in charge: Mr. BRIBED-DONE, Executive Branch; DHS Secretary, Mr. Mayorkas; Director of U.S.S.S.S.; Ms. Kimberly Cheatle. They are all likely going to be replaced if Mr. Trump is elected. The following are on the Hot-Seat: Obviously, Mr. BRIBED-DONE;😉 Very Likely Mr. Mayorkas, continued unmitigated failure in his position; somewhat likely Ms. Cheatle; though after the Trump deletion attempt, more likely. I said; more likely, because, Mr. Trump did nothing with, Mrs. Clinton after her intentional injurious & misguided failures.😊 Oh, I just found that, Ms. Cheatle, worked on Mr. BRIBED-DONE’s VP Secret Service Detail During Mr. Obama’s administration. 😮 I wonder if she has a “Conflict of Interest?” Nah, she is just as professional as the other Department heads in this Mr. BRIBED-DONE administration,(Executive Branch), like the DOJ.😉 🤭 🤭
Thanks Tim for your bravery, wisdom, dedication and service. I hope you have a loving wife who supports and appreciates every moment she has with you. With your job your life is on the line.
So a guy climbing over his secret service detail trying to protect him is admirable? If a second shot came from some where and hit him, you’d blame the protection detail. It was obvious he wasn’t listening to them. Saying,” Wait! Wait!” To the people trying to whisk him away.
If you listen, you can hear the police yelling the shooter is down, shooter is down!! Thats why Trump felt it was ok to get up. I also believe it is Trump saying Wait, wait as he wanted to grab his shoes!!
I have been avoiding this topic since it happened because I don't trust the US media. This answered a lot of the questions I had. Tim and Chris did a great job keeping it clear and easy to understand. Thank you for this.
Same here. 🤫 Japanese media cannot be trusted as well. So I am here to looking for more inforamation. Is it all same around the world in these days? (LOL)
Many of us feel the same, especially when initial _media_ reported that President Trump fell and was helped offstage! Pods like this are why the MSM and big-tech discredit, suppress, outright ban, or even destroy the content creators (financially, etc.) and guests.
This is also a lot better than the interview with Mike Baker that he did yesterday! Mike Baker definitely showed his true colours yesterday and that he is still with the CIA
But its not, you never take any of these podcasts as 100% fact or trustworthy. They were and now majority all have some angle or advertisers etc to please so they are not much different at this stage of the game.. He doesn't push back on people very much and the likes of Tim who talks 'a lot' shall we say.. you can enjoy it but you don;t just take it all in at face value without questioning it
Also thank God for the Internet!!! We had 3 networks for information !! I’m watching everything on the independent channels here. Great job! Thank you 🙏 ❤
Trumps attempted Assassination brings an entirely knee (yup pun intended not new but knee) meaning to one of my favourite childhood cartoon characters…”Donald Duck”.

@@raptango_na6199 He wasn't standing. He was on his belly. I haven't seen an elaborate trustworthy trajectory analysis yet. But remembering magic bullets exists, with impossible trajectories, it might not even matter 😅
Shooter bought the ladder at Home Depot, a mile away, before he had setup his climb to the roof. Crowd audience reported to police the shooter on the roof. So much went missed here..communication and the shooter bought ammo also near HOME DEPOT from a gun shop.
I love this talk better than those who are professional journalists who always seem to be biased one way or another. In other words you guys are genuine. Please don’t change
That’s a pity. But you’re right. Professional investigative journalists would have to found their claims in research and facts - which is something this guy isn’t doing an inch of. He’s got field experience, great - but this all falls into the category of opinion. And very much BIASED opinion at that; not even a whiff of objectivity on display here. Podcasts like this very clearly demonstrate that this is talk radio with pictures, at best.
But he’s more knowledgeable than 99% people on subjects like this, I would listen and understand what he says, then research yourself. He’s a great source of information
Have a close friend who worked for USSS. The agency is riddled with problems and retention issues. There’s a reason why USSS is rated one of the worst places to work in the federal government.
Social security admin is rated the worst Then DHS Then DoJ Then State department and Department of the Navy are tied Secret service seems to actually be ranked above average …. It if you’re in the middle of a colonoscopy go ahead and pull out anything else you’d like to add
@@BlackOpMercyGaming USSS has the tendency to overwork their personnel, because of staffing shortages. From what I’ve been told people have also had their leave cancelled. I won’t post the number of personnel leaving, but I’ve been told it’s in the ballpark of high double digits per month. So while they can graduate a class, 1 class or more of people is leaving the same month.
@@EndlngAnthem Okay, let's do some math here. There are 7800 people working in the Secret Service. Your figure "double digits" sounds sexy, but it's not a factual number. Let's say between 10 and 99 people are leaving per month, which would be between 0.12% and 1.2%. Gasp! It's a stampede! I presume the average agent retires after 20 years service, and they are evenly distributed in age. That means 130 retire per month, and that's assuming nobody quits earlier than that because of the tough effects of this job on family life, etc.
@@dougerrohmer lol are you an employee? 7800 people is the entire agency. There’s only about 3200 agents and 1300 police officers. All of the officers are in DC and the agents are spread across the U.S. It’s widely known there’s retention issues and it’s obviously impacting agency performance.
Thank you this it’s been a fantastic watch, I never got bored once, never fast forwarded it once, all the way through I enjoyed every second of it and I learned so much, I’m an English muddle same as Chris but I’ve watched Tim on some of podcasts and I always love to hear him, but I’ve seen a lot of others that have done this same topic but this by far the most interesting watch to date. But I would like to hear more of the short I watched Tim talking about the time he went on tv giving his address out because some people were trying to find him i do recall him saying he regretted it only because it stopped the people coming for him that he frightened them off. He is a great guy.
This was an EXCELLENT podcast. You asked virtually every question I was wondering and this is the only discussion I've seen so far that walks through all parts of the operation.
He is wrong about the ladder. The ladder is not fixed it was brought and put there. It's clearly visible in the helicopter video from sky news. Go to Google maps and you can see no fixed ladder.
Tim Kennedy is a great speaker and teacher he could be a professor if he’s not already and a Warrior of course . We are blessed to have him as an influence
The head of Secret Service just said that she was concerned about putting a team on that building because it has a sloped roof. "Safety issue." You can't make this stuff up.
I read somewhere the cop was boosted by another to grab the roof edge to pull up and peek over. Gunman pointed his rifle at him and cop fell injuring himself. The cops called in after the fall.
The snipers would have *had* to see the rifle. The rifle had to be over the crest of the roof for the kid to see Trump through his scope, and it would have taken the kid at least a few seconds to get Trump in the crosshairs. Both snipers were facing the roof the kid was on. All this multiple minutes after people are telling the police the kid was on the roof. Pretty damn fishy.
Thank you Tim Kennedy for your overall service ! And your continued patriotism , integrity ,knowledge and experience and your involvement which is very much needed and appreciated ! I thank you sir !
I WAS THERE!! LOCAL COPS WERE THE ONES ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE GATE AND FENCES. they had patrolling guys in camo which looked to be PANG SF from Ft. Indiantown Gap. They had snipers EVERYWHERE!! there is no reason this guy would not be seen. They knew he was there for at least 2 minutes that i seen.
@user-mq5rh6ew7p from where Trump was at the podium, 7 o'clock or his 1 o'clock position behind the fenced off area not through the metal detectors roughly 60-80m away.
@@Mia13jml wow you were close. Also it sounds like you were by the area where people were pointing out the shooter. Is that true? If so what did you see? Could you see the shooter? Also you mentioned snipers everywhere. How many could you see on the day. From the sounds of it there was only those two snipers. There has to be more than two. Is there something that you saw on the day, that isnt being spoken about?

😢
I'm sure that's true mr user-randomnumbers
The police are a gang like any other.
LIKE catch and release in my State SHAMEFUL 😮
Some say the police are a gang as well.
So Secret service agents can literally use their bodies as shields from bullets but they are just too delicate for sloped roofs. I can't.
They are expected & required to stop the protected injuries at any cost!
They where on a slope roof lol
Agree 100%
with Every Word TIM said.
As a female construction worker. I 💯% agree with what TK said about DEI. If you can do it great. If you cannot we should not lower standards. Outliers are outliers. You don’t pick a quota like 30% female or any other minority. Who is most qualified? That is fair, honest and safe for everyone. It’s insulting to the minorities who do have what it takes.
Great episode.
Thank you.
In my lifetime I’ve met one woman steel worker. We played on the same women’s soccer team years ago. She worked the shipyards and construction in Portland Oregon. She said her union boss asked her why their campaign to recruit more women was failing, and how they could improve it to welcome more women into their union. She said it’s mainly that not that many women are interested in becoming steel workers. Also, as you say, you have to be able to physically and safely do the work.
She said great money, when they had work.

The fact that there were/are no drone specialists/operators as part of current Secret Service operations, as in Ukraine, is insane.
Good point never even thought about that
It’s said they had drones but the drones malfunctioned
@@Awareness_With_Dennis Of course they did. This whole fiasco definitely seems sus haha

Sorry, it's almost as good an excuse as the sloped roof 🤦♀
And they still thought it was a good idea to let Trump on the stage 😳

How did a 20 year old socially inept kid outsmart the Secret Service, Sheriff's dept, local police, and tip toe past a building full of police and set up a sniper post on top of the police 'counter sniper' position?
That’s the real question
Also state police
Incompetence
How did RFK not get any secret service assigned until 7/15/24? I think the answer to both of our questions is the same.
A coup

Also the most feared spy in WW2 was one legged American spy Virginia Hall who Nazis' named the "limping lady". She escaped from France by walking over the Pyrenees mountains.
Oh and two Dutch teenaged girls who repeatedly lured Nazi officers into forest and dispatched them.
Also the most decorated soldier in World War II was Audie Murphy 5 ft tall. As Teddy Roosevelt said it's not the size of the dog in the fight but the size of the fight in the dog.
Whatever the dog you may have for the fight, I’m not secure being covered by a 5”6 person when I’m 6”3.
This is why podcasts are valuable: bring on someone who actually knows what the fuck they're talking about for an HOUR instead of minutes. Thanks for the informing pod
I loved him saying he does not watch the news! Spot on as well
TIM KENNEDY IS THE VERY BEST OF THE BEST 💯👍👍
I’m a 71 year old Marine and I couldn’t phantom the level of incompetence I saw on Saturday. Thank God our prayers were answered that protect President Trump. Enjoyed the discussion between the two of you! Keep up the great content! God bless.

Thank you for your service ❤
Think God protected Trump - He knew that Trump would be vulnerable, and got him to focus on a chart to his right.
Tim Kennedy is an American patriot. I read his book “Scars and Stripes” and he is a true bad ass. Great interview!
ME TOO👍💯🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
God I love Tim. Guy knows his stuff
Tim has made so many great points. I have zero tactical knowledge, and I was thinking the security team looked more panicked than Trump. I love the insight Tim brings to this situation. Much appreciated
Touche !
Yes, he really does bring it, with fire too!
This is one of the best segments I've seen on 7/13, thanks, Chris.
The Director of the Secret Service said they didn't post snipers on the roof the kid shot from because it was a sloped roof and a safety hazard for personnel. Unreal.
Even though they had detail on a different sloped roof - does she think we're stupid?
But they were on a roof already that was also sloped. What fucking roof isn’t sloped???????
It's that officer safety again bulshit
Crying a River
she is not fit to head the SS and she MUST resign at once.
On the assessment part that you talked about, I’m in full agreement of your statement.
I personally have seen a 98LB female complete a physical function 300LB male could not to pass a physical requirement to obtain an open job position and was the person in evaluating the physical part.
The male applicant stated that he could not complete the task and that it was a two-man job and I had to call in a 98LB experienced Skinny 5,5’ female to demonstrate that this could be done by one person to drive home it can be done to give that male an opportunity to complete the physical task and he refused and therefore was not hired.
I am confident in this statement that if a smaller female had the wherewithal and the training with experience would have brought Trump down onto the deck immediately hi whatever means necessary while all the other agents were still getting them that would reduce the field of fire vulnerability of Trump getting hit while the other agents were still arriving by creating as much cover as possible during a shooting event by whatever means necessary in my mind is the primary objective and male nor female is irrelevant in this, would you not agree?
Tim Kennedy is not only the top of line professional but a wise , Honorable and competent man who is so right about everything ! Thank you for your sevice !
Great interview!👍
Ran into Tim Kennedy out shopping here in the Austin area. I said hi and mentioned my father was a Vet of Vietnam War and the first Iraq war and I was a fan. He's one of the nicest guys and the personality you see here is all him.
Vietnam guys were just built different. Great meeting you.

That’s really fucking cool actually , glad to hear he is genuine
Absolutely the BEST critique of the incident I’ve seen yet. This man knows what he’s talking about, period! Critique or assessment, both right on.
This Tim Kennedy is a smart man. He's 💯 right
Fascinating..It would be such an honor to just sit and quietly listen to these special forces vets tell war stories. Blows my mind the life they've lived, what they've been trained to do and then gone and done it.. Numerous times and still manage to go home alive and somewhat intact.. I am so grateful for your bravery and for every warrior that didn't make it home I thank you for your ultimate sacrifice for your country . ♥️ I hope someday I could buy y'all a beer or 2..may God bless you all
Heard someone say where is the evidence of a conspiracy... my only thought is, you dont think that Empty roof was enough evidence? Incompetence on that level is compliance
This man is smart. Realistic !
Complicity
Don't forget the ladder while the shooter rode a bike. The left has pushed so many agendas without question there's nothing they won't try.
The director's lame excuse of a sloped roof strongly suggests complicity. That or profound stupidity, i.e. the dog ate my risk assessment.
@@jengel2000especially since the roof they were on had more of an angle. Why isn't anyone talking about the man that was on the water tower?!
Then the ducking secret service director says “it was too dangerous to secure that roof” for real? What the fool kind of people are we hiring here?
Thats not the bad part. They knew he had a gun and was up there. They left trump on the podium to get assassinated. Then shot the kid.
A woman
And, what kind of fool do they think we are?!
The roof of my own home has a near identical pitch. I climb onto my roof several times a year to remove leaves from my gutters. Never once have I felt unsafe or unstable on that surface. I am however astonished that the director would use the “too dangerous” excuse. She is breathtaking in her attempt to fob such a weak excuse at us.
In answer to your question, the Secret Service Chief is a Jill Biden favorite; of course, first, not qualified to hold the job, and second a woman. You cannot have a woman Secret Service Chief. Notice how she hasn’t been fired. The Dem-Left is practicing its usual, no accountability.
Tim Kennedy got it 100% right that's why everything is messed up from the military to school teachers
Omg, demolition ranch showed that 50BMG will not do anything if it misses.
The internet is not gospel ..Kennedy is a trained professional..this generation is lost deceived...America is doomed.
Exactly. My neighbor won’t let go that this “wind tunnel” would have blew the whole ear off its non sense
Tim didn't say a close miss from a 50bmg would cause physical damage to his ear... what is your point?
Competence is paramount with no bias towards individuals.
This is like day 6 of sniper school, building a range card! This was insane, as a sniper/instructor for 20+ years. It was a 150yd shot, you could make with your eyes closed. I'm still trying to wrap my head around it.
The ICS system was developed decades ago to de-conflict local/state/Fed commication issues.
decades ago . Wow. yeah I have heard a few times over past yrs that comms issues were addressed after 9/11 b/c it was such a big factor. I used to think it was talking about the intelligence side/info sharing but I guess it applies to comms in field as well? I think I remember something about police/fire/govn't agencies not being able to coordinate on day of attack 9/11
God was in charge. He protects His people.
"Im not disparaging the people on the ground there"
1 min later: "They gave them a bunch of hacks that dont know how to do their jobs!"

I’m sorry I don’t"t get your point ?
The saddest thing, seeing this 2 weeks later, is how the media has memory holed this story.
They WILL NOT let this be a contributing factor in the public’s opinion. WE CAN NOT FORGET
As a woman I agree. There are areas where we can't compete. It's insanity!
Most sane women do know our limitations!!!
As a Marine I am one that disagrees with females in combat roles- why because most females can’t handle combat. The secret service women that were assigned to the detail for President Trump proves this.
Exactly we can't do things men can. It's biology/anatomy

As a former SEAL with very similar experiences, thank God someone with a bigger soap box than me is voicing my exact thoughts. Thank you, Kennedy! DEI only works if standards are NOT lowered or as the woke say, “adjusted”.
As a female veteran, I concur that there should not even be different physical fitness standards for males and females. You either have what it takes or you don't. It's not a matter of privilege but a matter of national security!

There’s a point where incompetence = complicity 🎉
Tim Kennedy is such a patriot. Miss him in UFC!
The question I’m seeing no one ask on these deconstruction videos is: why the hell was Trump left speaking on stage for 4 minutes knowing there was an imminent threat?
20 mins
I agree
@@saltnanger2044 Damn.
Inside job they did it intentionally
Its all staged! Even this 🤡
One of THE best takes on the events. I'm impressed at how little we regular folk will never understand what it means to be this type of expert. It's important to hear the truth. Bro is solid. The mainstream media need to hear this.
Why does MSM need to hear it? To call him a white supremacist?
I only know Tim from a Joe Rogan episode lol but hes cool as hell. I believe his info qualifies as expertise commentary for sure
Tim does not want you to have access to firearms. He wants all types of new regulation. Not a friend of the 2nd amendment.
I find him incredibly annoying and he's not giving any insight. Don't think I can finish watching this. The machismo and over emotionality, and he doesn't answer the questions directly. Doesn't seem like someone who would be calm cool and collected in the face of a tense situation.
@@darianbalcom8777 I understand completely how you could think that and the knee-jerk recoil from the machismo but imagine if you were in a life or death situation and you could pick Tim or one of the female SS agents on the stage with Trump last Saturday. Who would you pick? You don’t have to like the person to make the smart choice. The man knows his job inside and out, likely with the same competency and minutia detail that you know your own. Military needs these type of abrasive personality people 🤷♂
37:00 As the proud owner of a Barrett M107 chambered in .50bmg I can confidently say that it will do absolutely ZERO damage if the projectile itself does not make physical contact with the target. The crack of the projectile breaking the sound barrier will probably ring your eardrum if it’s close enough but other than that it will do no damage.
@@mikhaelsunik You’re not missing out on anything. Tim Kennedy ain’t worth even looking into.

I just watched a guy prove it on RUclips with 3 white claws 2 in front 1 in back with a can space in between….the back one blew up a piece of tipped one of the other cans over the other one didn’t even move lol
Chris, excellent episode and guest. I have so much respect for Tim Kennedy.
As he pointed out, a sniper's first responsibility is observation not shooting. The most disturbing aspect of all this isn't why they didn't shoot sooner. It's their apparent failure to signal SS on the ground to get the President offstage during the minutes leading up to the shooting.
They are saying that without a rifle in sight, they couldn't be sure he was an active threat. But if communication was as it should have been, they would have known from the officer who climbed the ladder that the suspect DID have a gun. Do they need to see it, or simply know it exists? Apparently the former. That all being said, the rifle had to be visible for at least 4-5 seconds as he set up for his shot and then fired 5/6 times. So the whole point is mute. Those snipers should have fired after 1-2 seconds of it being visible. Not wincing from the audible gunshots and then reacting.
@@AaronS11979 perhaps… But an unauthorized person on a secured roof? If that's not enough to trigger alert, what is?
Thank you for your explanation. I highly suspect that whoever mapouts out the security forTrump is either incompetent or sloppy by design. Someone wants to take out or disable him badly ????
@@ClayAsbury122
Another Sniper Said They Had a "Pac-Man" Defense - The Smile Face Part OPEN,
Represented That Building Was Unprotected.
@@ClayAsbury122that’s the issue. They were informed initially that the building was secure and then somewhere the communication between groups broke down. It is reasonable to assume that they wouldn’t know for sure if this was a credible threat or another LEO taking up a position. Trust me it’s a sticky situation. In Iraq we had ROEs where we could not shoot unless shot at which put us at a severe disadvantage. This is just how the US govt rolls and unfortunately people pay the price for it.
Thank you for the clear and concise discussion on this matter. As a veteran, I can tell you my goal was always the “men’s” version of every test or die trying. I used to scream at women who did the 80% effort of their requirements BS. I screamed “you are the reason women aren’t taken seriously.” I demanded of myself every day, I will not be the reason anyone dies or gets hurt. I can be mushy as a marshmallow as a wife and mother but as my service spouse said to anyone who would listen “she is hard as Christmas candy” as a soldier. I didn’t know he did this until after I had left the service. It is the best compliment ever.
DEI = Did not EARN it.
Thank you for your service, Joyce!
As a deer hunter of 23 years, i understand everything this guy is saying in terms of the art of being a spotter/sniper.!.
Epic episode. This is one of the best interviews I’ve ever seen - let your expert guest do the talking and ask the right questions at the right time. Kudos, Chris - this is next level.
Rarely have I come upon such an intelligent discussion. I was riveted by the whole thing. Extremely well thought out and incisive questions and a fascinating guest with not only incredible knowledge, but very eloquent and well spoken. Fabulous content. Well done!
Seconded
Tim Kennedy is the real deal. If you like him, watch his interviews on Joe Rogan's podcast.
And yet not once did anyone mention the SS serves at the President.'s whim.
Tim Kennedy you are the best. Your expertise to break this down and your stance on politics is refreshing. Thank you!
Tim Kennedy is bringing light rather than HEAT to the discussion. Refreshing!
This was fascinating. The best one I've watched and listened to.
It is amazing that this podcast exists in the same world where people only know about what happened from the mainstream media.
This is actually frightening
One of my first thoughts about the Mr. Trump Deletion attempt, was who were the people in charge outside his campaign, responsible for making decisions for his safety?
Next, is there possibly anything suspicious behind the curtain, a smoking pew-pew so to speak. 🤔
My next assumption was, the individuals who have the most to lose are the people in charge: Mr. BRIBED-DONE, Executive Branch;
DHS Secretary, Mr. Mayorkas;
Director of U.S.S.S.S.; Ms. Kimberly Cheatle.
They are all likely going to be replaced if Mr. Trump is elected.
The following are on the Hot-Seat: Obviously, Mr. BRIBED-DONE;😉
Very Likely Mr. Mayorkas, continued unmitigated failure in his position; somewhat likely Ms. Cheatle; though after the Trump deletion attempt, more likely.
I said; more likely, because, Mr. Trump did nothing with, Mrs. Clinton after her intentional injurious & misguided failures.😊
Oh, I just found that, Ms. Cheatle, worked on Mr. BRIBED-DONE’s VP Secret Service Detail During Mr. Obama’s administration. 😮
I wonder if she has a
“Conflict of Interest?”
Nah, she is just as professional as the other Department heads in this Mr. BRIBED-DONE administration,(Executive Branch), like the DOJ.😉

Best diagnostic of the event that I've heard. Thank you both
Sure hope and pray Tim will be speaking to congress in an open hearing so the world can see the real truth. Thanks Chris for showing this.
So a guy climbing over his secret service detail trying to protect him is admirable? If a second shot came from some where and hit him, you’d blame the protection detail. It was obvious he wasn’t listening to them. Saying,” Wait! Wait!” To the people trying to whisk him away.
If you listen, you can hear the police yelling the shooter is down, shooter is down!! Thats why Trump felt it was ok to get up. I also believe it is Trump saying Wait, wait as he wanted to grab his shoes!!
Thanks for having Kennedy
Always enjoy his commentary
I have been avoiding this topic since it happened because I don't trust the US media. This answered a lot of the questions I had. Tim and Chris did a great job keeping it clear and easy to understand. Thank you for this.
Put a lot of effort into minimizing it.
But as he says himself, he has close ties with the Biden team,
You're smart staying away from the media. Just like this former soldier.
At this point it's propaganda and toxic.
Same here. 🤫
Japanese media cannot be trusted as well. So I am here to looking for more inforamation.
Is it all same around the world in these days? (LOL)
Many of us feel the same, especially when initial _media_ reported that President Trump fell and was helped offstage! Pods like this are why the MSM and big-tech discredit, suppress, outright ban, or even destroy the content creators (financially, etc.) and guests.
Me as well.
I learnt a lot from this interview. This is like, some guy's podcast is so much trustworthy than the mainstream media.
Where can I find Some Guy's Podcast? Didn't see it on YT.
This is also a lot better than the interview with Mike Baker that he did yesterday! Mike Baker definitely showed his true colours yesterday and that he is still with the CIA
But its not, you never take any of these podcasts as 100% fact or trustworthy. They were and now majority all have some angle or advertisers etc to please so they are not much different at this stage of the game..

I love this talk better than those who are professional journalists who always seem to be biased one way or another. In other words you guys are genuine.
Please don’t change
That’s a pity. But you’re right. Professional investigative journalists would have to found their claims in research and facts - which is something this guy isn’t doing an inch of. He’s got field experience, great - but this all falls into the category of opinion. And very much BIASED opinion at that; not even a whiff of objectivity on display here. Podcasts like this very clearly demonstrate that this is talk radio with pictures, at best.
Thank you for having on a professional to analyze all of the aspects of how things went versus how things should have gone.

Tim isn’t “no bs.” He replayed that absolutely b.s. myth about .50 cals, so everything he says is suspect.

Have a close friend who worked for USSS. The agency is riddled with problems and retention issues. There’s a reason why USSS is rated one of the worst places to work in the federal government.
Social security admin is rated the worst
Then DHS
Then DoJ
Then State department and Department of the Navy are tied
Secret service seems to actually be ranked above average …. It if you’re in the middle of a colonoscopy go ahead and pull out anything else you’d like to add
@@BlackOpMercyGaming USSS has the tendency to overwork their personnel, because of staffing shortages. From what I’ve been told people have also had their leave cancelled. I won’t post the number of personnel leaving, but I’ve been told it’s in the ballpark of high double digits per month. So while they can graduate a class, 1 class or more of people is leaving the same month.
Yup I have cousin who is a fed and has done security detail with SS. Toughest to retain agents. America is failing everywhere 🇺🇸🦅📉😢
@@EndlngAnthem Okay, let's do some math here. There are 7800 people working in the Secret Service. Your figure "double digits" sounds sexy, but it's not a factual number. Let's say between 10 and 99 people are leaving per month, which would be between 0.12% and 1.2%. Gasp! It's a stampede! I presume the average agent retires after 20 years service, and they are evenly distributed in age. That means 130 retire per month, and that's assuming nobody quits earlier than that because of the tough effects of this job on family life, etc.
@@dougerrohmer lol are you an employee? 7800 people is the entire agency. There’s only about 3200 agents and 1300 police officers. All of the officers are in DC and the agents are spread across the U.S. It’s widely known there’s retention issues and it’s obviously impacting agency performance.
Eternally grateful to have public figures as insightful, experienced, and wise as Tim to speak on such topics.
Agreed
You guys are so right i am a retired hunter and you guys are spot on i am saying and thinking about the same questions thank you for your thinking!
Thank you this it’s been a fantastic watch, I never got bored once, never fast forwarded it once, all the way through I enjoyed every second of it and I learned so much, I’m an English muddle same as Chris but I’ve watched Tim on some of podcasts and I always love to hear him, but I’ve seen a lot of others that have done this same topic but this by far the most interesting watch to date. But I would like to hear more of the short I watched Tim talking about the time he went on tv giving his address out because some people were trying to find him i do recall him saying he regretted it only because it stopped the people coming for him that he frightened them off. He is a great guy.
Great to hear from a true expert, Tim Kennedy. This is what we needed to understand what occurred .Thank you.
This was an EXCELLENT podcast. You asked virtually every question I was wondering and this is the only discussion I've seen so far that walks through all parts of the operation.
He is wrong about the ladder. The ladder is not fixed it was brought and put there. It's clearly visible in the helicopter video from sky news. Go to Google maps and you can see no fixed ladder.

The head of Secret Service just said that she was concerned about putting a team on that building because it has a sloped roof. "Safety issue."
You can't make this stuff up.
you really can't holy shit
A woman leading the highest level of security in the nation is a joke.
I'm still shocked... that I'm shocked. This is not at all unexpected.
Does she think people don’t work on sloped roofs?
Female leadership
I read somewhere the cop was boosted by another to grab the roof edge to pull up and peek over. Gunman pointed his rifle at him and cop fell injuring himself. The cops called in after the fall.
It's amazing what this gentleman knew 11 days ago.
How on point it remains.
The snipers would have *had* to see the rifle. The rifle had to be over the crest of the roof for the kid to see Trump through his scope, and it would have taken the kid at least a few seconds to get Trump in the crosshairs. Both snipers were facing the roof the kid was on. All this multiple minutes after people are telling the police the kid was on the roof.
Pretty damn fishy.
You sure shooters gun had scope?
There was a tree in the way for the snipers your talking about. I could be wrong*
Scope?
@@sfall616I don't think the tree was a factor.
@@sfall616Tree was in between them and shooter. The other sniper team on other barn took the shot with an SR-25.
