At first I thought that was a typo. But yes, this most certainly took place on land.
They were. They made a ‘no shit they shall not pass’ line and as soon as the first MAGA fucked around, they found out.
Source? I want to read that story and have a laugh.
Edit: I couldn’t find a case where the USSS took on trespassers. I can only find preventative measures.

Pretty sure he’s talking about Ashley babbit.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Killing_of_Ashli_Babbitt
Ashli Babbitt got shot full on by the secret service after attempting to force entry into the Speakers’ Lobby. After being repeatedly warned by secret service that they will be shot if they press forward, Zachary Alam broke the window and Babbitt attempted to rush in past the broken glass. Then she got shot. Big surprise.

Ashli Babbitt isn’t an example of the USSS taking down a threat. Your source claims:
she was shot in the left shoulder by a United States Capitol Police (USCP) officer.
The USCP isn’t the USSS (by my understanding, which is based on Wiki). I understand that the USSS were present at Jan 6 though, so your point stands.
Hmm, actually, that’s a pretty solid point. I missed that detail. Thanks for pointing that out.
Shortening Secret Service to SS sure seems weird when nazis are threatening to take hold of power. Caught me off guard.
Whoops, genuinely didn’t mean to.
I think typically people use “USSS” for this reason.
I am undecided wether pointing that out was necessary. I just made an offhand comment and you did too. I did not think you were implying something. Hope I didn’t cause distress.
Nah, you’re right to have pointed it out, especially because of the circumstances. No distress here. ☮
It really sucks that everybody voting for trump is not your friend, even if you think they are. It’s just too many people for that to happen to.
Unfortunately that profile in courage Jeff Bezos is more concerned about Trump potentially messing with his government contracts than threatening to have Washington Post reporters killed.
You don’t get to where he is by caring about other people.
Trump’s backers, and especially Peter Thiel, whom JD Vance is an avatar for (Thiel put forward Vance as VP to Trump, and had sponsored Vance’s entire political career, which is only two years old), all read Curtis Yarvin.
Yarvin is Silicon Valley’s chosen “philosopher” - he advocates for the end of democracy and a return to monarchy, with billionaires as royalty and monarchs.
Go to jail you orange turd.
This dude is only becoming more of a nightmare the closer we get to election day
just wait until you see what he’s like after election day!
True. Doesn’t matter if he wins or loses. He’ll claim he won no matter the results and he’ll be equally crazy.
and he’ll be equally crazy.
Equally? That seems optimistic. He’ll go even farther off the deep end. Even if he wins, he’ll contest it, because he clearly should have won by a larger margin.
Believe people when they show you what they really are.

Soooooo
The right-wing reporters realize he means them too, right?
Eventually, you slip up and lose favor with the GröpenFührer then, out the window you go.
They realize that. Right?
This is the mistake people always make with an autocrat. They the think they’ll be allowed to keep or amass the power the have, but only one person is allowed power in an autocratic regime.
Something something… leopards… faces…
Forget about the nominally right wing media, look at how the NY Times have covered every threat to democracy, ever. From Hitler to the business plot to Trump.
They’ll never lose favor, only the other will.
Of course they don’t. He hates the people they hate. And when he hates them, they’ll hate themselves, too.
