The assassination attempt happened on July 13, 2024. It took almost an entire year for suspensions to take place. Granted, Trump didn’t take office until late January of this year.
Commenters agree that the fateful day was an utter train wreck, and it’s a miracle Trump survived.
That makes sense. The day was a massive operational failure. People need to be held accountable. I’m glad they are. They shouldn’t work in a position that is involved with the president safety again I’m sure they’re fine people.

Great question and one every American should be asking.
Six agents suspended is not a small detail. That points to serious failures, or worse.
So where’s the transparency? Where’s the full timeline? Where’s the motive?
We deserve real answers not silence and vague statements.

Six agents suspended and we’re still being fed silence?

The American people watched it unfold in real time and still can’t get straight answers.
This isn’t transparency. It’s a cover story with the pages ripped out.
Posters want answers.
Commenters hope this means there’s a larger investigation taking place that will explain how so many things went wrong.
I'm just glad that it appears it's still being investigated. It's important to Americans to find out why and how he was allowed to get close enough with a rifle for this attempt.

This FBI and DOJ aren't playing games, and neither is the new SS. People think everyone is going to get away with their crimes; I do not.

I hope you're right but I'm not holding my breath.

Of course, cynicism exists. It seems we never get satisfying answers in cases like this. This is a developing story, and we will bring you more details as they are reported.
