#140 Eli Crane & Tim Burchett - Two Things All Americans Want: Accountability and Transparency

That's clearly not happening.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#140 Eli Crane & Tim Burchett - Two Things All Americans Want: Accountability and Transparency

As somebody who's trained, what did you think when you saw one of the Secret Service agents up on that detail that couldn't holster a weapon after three attempts?

The Shawn Ryan Show
#140 Eli Crane & Tim Burchett - Two Things All Americans Want: Accountability and Transparency

Honestly, I don't care what the sex is, man.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#140 Eli Crane & Tim Burchett - Two Things All Americans Want: Accountability and Transparency

I really don't.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#140 Eli Crane & Tim Burchett - Two Things All Americans Want: Accountability and Transparency

But at the same time, does that look like somebody who's well-trained to you?

So, you know, maybe they'reβ€” And I know they play by different roles because I've talked to other Secret Service agents because of the political ramifications of it.

like i've been told that you know these advances can come back with the recommendation that hey let's not hold this rally here but even then it's up to the campaign so you know if a campaign decides hey we're gonna hold a rally here regardless um you know of what your recommendation was you know they're gonna hold the rally there and so that was one of my issues when i went to butler and uh

I was looking at how many threats there were on that site, how many rooftops, how many windows, how many trees.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#140 Eli Crane & Tim Burchett - Two Things All Americans Want: Accountability and Transparency

There were a lot of trees that somebody could have easily gotten up into and made like a hide site deer stand.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#140 Eli Crane & Tim Burchett - Two Things All Americans Want: Accountability and Transparency

And there were way too many threats for the amount of security they had to cover down on.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#140 Eli Crane & Tim Burchett - Two Things All Americans Want: Accountability and Transparency

And so that's another thing that we got to get smarter on.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#140 Eli Crane & Tim Burchett - Two Things All Americans Want: Accountability and Transparency

Way too many avenues to cover with the guns that you have.

When I look at the pictures of his hide site, you know, if that's what it – or his final firing position as we would call it, you know, one of the things I noticed based on this story that I'm hearing is that he was spotted because he put the barrel of his gun through the fence, right?

The Shawn Ryan Show
#140 Eli Crane & Tim Burchett - Two Things All Americans Want: Accountability and Transparency

Behind me, you have a picture of a legit –

you know sniper team on a rooftop and it looks like somebody blew a loophole or a hole in the wall which you know most snipers want to use they want to be as far back from you know the actual hole they're going to be shooting at and so i was looking at it and like

The Shawn Ryan Show

Secret Service, in my opinion, got lucky again because this guy wasn't trained.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#140 Eli Crane & Tim Burchett - Two Things All Americans Want: Accountability and Transparency

I could tell by if he was trained, he would have had a pair of $20 bolt cutters with him.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#140 Eli Crane & Tim Burchett - Two Things All Americans Want: Accountability and Transparency

He would have cut out his loophole or his…

line of sight through that fence, and then he would have pushed back into the shady leaves so that he couldn't have been seen, right?
