In a recent segment on "The First" with Jesse Kelly, Tucker Carlson made serious allegations against the Biden administration, accusing it of allowing an assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump.
Carlson argued that the administration’s actions, or lack thereof, in providing adequate protection for Trump during a recent event, amount to a significant failure in safeguarding a political opponent.
The discussion began with Jesse Kelly highlighting the severity of the situation, referencing a Supreme Court ruling on immunity and its timing just before Trump nearly faced fatal danger during a live event in Pennsylvania.
Kelly asked Carlson to elaborate on how he foresaw such a dire situation unfolding. "You saw this horrific thing coming, so they tried to imprison him. Supreme Court rules on immunity. Miraculously, right after that immunity ruling, and right before he gets the official nomination for president, he's two inches away from having his brains blown all over a stage on live television in Pennsylvania," Kelly said. "Tucker, could you please tell explain to people how you could see something so horrific coming because you did."

Here's What They're Not Telling You About Your Retirement
Carlson responded by downplaying his ability to predict the future but emphasized the clear trend of escalating attacks on Trump over the past eight years. He noted that these attacks had grown in "desperation and severity, intensity, ruthlessness," to the point where imprisoning Trump on what Carlson described as "utterly fake charges" was not enough.
"That wasn't working. He was becoming more popular. You know, the more they persecuted him in the courts, and so there was only one option left, and that was to murder him, and the Biden administration allowed him to get shot. That's a statement of fact," Carlson asserted.
He pointed out that the Secret Service, which falls under the executive branch controlled by the Biden administration, failed to provide adequate protection for Trump. Carlson contrasted this with the higher level of protection afforded to First Lady Jill Biden at a rally on the same day. "They gave it over to the fake, horrible, fake doctor lady who's married to Joe Biden, who was having a rally the same day with more Secret Service protection than Donald Trump," Carlson said.
Carlson further criticized the decision to overlook a nearby building, just 140 yards from the stage where Trump was speaking, as a serious lapse in security. "I've been to a million events with Secret Service my entire life, and I've never heard of anything like that. So they let this happen," he stated.

He emphasized that the intent behind the administration's actions, whether deliberate or not, is irrelevant. "They could say it's unintentional. It doesn't matter what the intent was. They allowed it to happen, and they've never been held to account for it," Carlson said, expressing frustration that the incident has not received sufficient attention from Republicans in Congress or the media.
Carlson concluded by warning that this event represents a pivotal moment in American history, where a political opponent was nearly allowed to be assassinated due to the administration's negligence. "It's really a pivot point in American history. You can't allow your political opponent to get murdered because you don't like him, but they did," he said.

Tucker has he really been to a million secret service events? Even thousands are big numbers.
Granted, it really looks bad for the Bidens to be removing ss detail from Trump to cover his wife on the same day that he actually gets shot.
Could be coincidence, hard to know.
