Sorry about the source....

The U.S. Secret Service has denied diverting resources away from protecting former President Donald Trump at a campaign rally where he was the target of an assassination attempt, in order to protect first lady Jill Biden.

Susan Crabtree of RealClearPolitics reported on social media that unnamed sources told her resources were diverted away from Trump to protect the first lady, who was also campaigning in Pennsylvania on Saturday.

snip....

Anthony Guglielmi, chief of communications for the Secret Service, responded to Crabtree's post, saying it was false.

"We did not divert resources from FPOTUS Trump & protection models don't work that way," Guglielmi wrote.
