Has Biden administration used Secret Service as political weapon?

 DENIED COVERAGE FOR RFK JR. AND INCREASE REQUESTED BY TRUMP

WAS ADEQUATE PROTECTION DENIED INTENTIONALLY? 



Many people were concerned when the Biden administration denied Secret Service protection for RFK Jr.. A potential political opponent that was denied the ability to run as a Democrat in a primary. Also someone who was a natural target of violence due to his being related to the former assassinated president and presidential candidate. Who made these decisions? I hope someone is going to find out.

It has also been revealed that the Trump campaign and the security detail assigned to Trump requested additional personnel and protection and was denied. Were these political decisions designed to restrict the campaign opportunities of Biden's political opponents? Or even worse, subject them to serious risk of violence. 

A full examination of who has had Secret Service protection in this administration and to what extent is in order. Was Biden's whole relation offered extensive protection while his opponents were subject to risk by these decisions.

I did attend the recent Trump rally in Schnecksville. Pa.. I suspect that there was not adequate security at that rally. First, we waited for 3 hours to gain access to the facility, I suppose because there was not enough personnel for that event. At the end of the line, just before Trump's arrival, they opened up the event without any screening, I suspect because they could not handle all the people.

Due to the nature of some of these events, it is very difficult to provide adequate security. Indoor facilities with limited access points are the safest possible forums. but most such events require long term planning.

The security lapses in Butler county were glaring and suspicious, the fact that someone could gain access to the roof of that building is outrageous.  While they claim the local police were given responsibility, I suspect they should have been instructed to be on that roof by the Secret Service. Why the Secret Service sniper was denied the ok to fire unless the subject fired was like allowing the perpetrator  to make a shot. How did this person have knowledge of this event and its layout beforehand that he was able to have weapons stored inside the secure area? 

It seemed the Secret Service director made the decisions to not answer any questions, even about things that were already public knowledge is outrageous. Her resignation in no way should end this inquiry or the accountability of all involved in the decision making.
