U.S. Secret Service “Protective Operations Asst Director” Asked to Resign Over Butler Assassination Attempt


According to Fox News the acting Secret Service Director Ronald Rowe has asked protective operations Asst Director Michael Plati to resign his position.

Hopefully this is not just another example of creating the illusion of accountability.  However, prior precedent indicates nothing dissimilar.  Was Michael Plati the ultimate decisionmaker on all of the facets that led to such a botched protective detail?  Not likely.

(VIA Fox News) – A high-ranking leader within the Secret Service has been asked to retire following the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania, Fox News Digital has learned.

Michael Plati, office of protective operations assistant director, has been asked to retire and is ending his tenure with the service in the coming days.

Plati was asked to step down by senior leadership, including Acting Director Ronald Rowe.

Fox News Digital has reached out to the United States Secret Service for comment and is awaiting its response. The USSS is preparing to brief Congress in the coming days about lessons learned from the July 13th attempt on Trump’s life. (read more)

While the media, and for their self-interested purposes – the U.S. intelligence apparatchiks, are so quick to push the “mistakes were made” narrative surrounding the assassination attempt, a great number of Americans are not going to just accept this nonsensical reply.

Consider if this failed assassination attempt was on someone not named Donald Trump:

[Son of Liberty] – “The biggest ‘tell’ is how the media tried to deny there was an assassination attempt and then try to say it was staged by Trump for sympathy vote. Think of what the response would have been if it was Barry Sotero this happened to – the media would have likely called for martial law. When the day of reckoning arrives, the media need to be front and center – every single one of the liars.”
