So…the Trump Administration WAS ‘hiring’ domestic terrorists to provide ‘security’? OK then…I’m sure they were only doing it for our own good…you know, ANTIFA and all…
If she was (and as we know, everything Q is true) she forgot the disclaimer at the end of the recording: “As always, should you or any of your QOK Force be caught or killed, the Secretary will disavow any knowledge of your actions. This tape/disc will self-destruct in five/ten seconds. Good luck, Jessica”
Good on the Oathkeepers for being woke enough to welcome a transgender insurrectionist into their ranks. Will the Proud Boys be willing to step up as well?
In response to Watkins’ bond motion, the Secret Service denied to CNN that it employed private citizens on Jan. 6, and it’s not clear to what extent — if any — Watkins actually worked with event organizers on security.
I have zero problem believing the Secret Service is lying in this instance and Watkins was granted some sort of quasi-official level of approval to provide security. This is an organization that loses track of weapons and laptops, and gets busted frequenting prostitutes and strip clubs. While on duty.
“to provide escort for the legislators and others to march to the Capitol as directed by the then President
What legislators? I don’t recall any congresscritters marching from the white house to the capitol. Were there even any congresscritters at the white house rally?
Well, the US Secret Service is not denying that they met with her, just that “they employed her”. It would be interesting to know why the USSS met with her in the first place, take some selfies maybe?
The US Secret Service, in response to Watkins’ claims in the Saturday filing, denied that private citizens were working with the Secret Service to provide security on January 6.
“To carry out its protective functions on January 6th, the U.S. Secret Service relied on the assistance of various government partners. Any assertion that the Secret Service employed private citizens to perform those functions is false,” a US Secret Service spokesperson said in a statement to CNN on Sunday.
I could possibly believe her story about providing security at the rally, if I crossed my eyes and squinted really hard, but security for the march on the Capitol? No, nope, nien, nien, can’t figure out how 6 people in her crew were going to protect 100s of people walking a mile+ to the Capitol.
There have been photos of oathkeepers around Roger Stone on the 5th, providing him “security”. He was staying at the trump hotel, where that big meeting involving trump jr. and others was, so entirely possible that the SS agents around the place encountered the oathkeepers and that they spoke. To what extent and about what, who knows exactly, but I’d pin it around that location, where the SS would have been very interested in anyone coming onto their turf.
