Secret Service members at former President Donald Trump's rally last Saturday were notified by Pennsylvania State Police officers about a suspicious person with a rangefinder at 5:51 p.m., about 20 minutes before the gunman shot at Trump, according to three sources familiar with a law enforcement briefing to members of Congress on Wednesday. CBS News correspondent Charlie De Mar has the latest on the investigation.

    You allow spam and bot comments but not questioning critical comments? Sounds about right.

    Oh look, you’ve removed the flag from the thumbnail
  • Are we to assume this level of negligence happens regularly OR that it only happened once...the one time a gunman "guessed" where the glaring hole was. Either way I don't think we should feel better.
  • @marciacoe4610
    Secret service isn’t supposed to make mistakes. Everyone should be concerned as Biden could be vulnerable too. The patriots in the crowd did better

    I have noticed that YouTube has been deleting like a bunch of comments related to both Donald Trump and Joe Biden. I even dedicated the newest video on my channel to that.
