The feds were likely involved with Routh for many months. But they DID NOT stop him from planting himself in the bushes at a Trump Palm Beach course where he waited to kill the president.
The FBI needs to come clean.

Jesse Watters: All right, John, let’s start with you. When Ruth thought he was talking to a Ukrainian arms dealer, the Justice Department says, What do you think that means?
John Kiriakou: That almost always means he was speaking with an FBI agent or with someone acting on behalf of the FBI. But the fact that he still got to the golf course in Florida, even though he was caught, the fact that he got there tells that someone was asleep at the switch.
Jesse Watters: If he was being monitored by the federal government, why would they let him get right to that hole with a rifle?
John Kiriakou: There’s absolutely no way to justify that. No way at all. If he was deemed to be an actual threat to the President, and clearly he was a threat, a long term ongoing threat, they should have scooped him up ages ago. It’s better to charge someone with conspiracy than to risk him actually carrying out an attack and assassinating the President of the United States.
Jesse Watters: Does the federal government usually lose track of crazy people who are trying to buy bazookas to kill the President?
John Kiriakou: I can only think of I… Harvey Oswald to tell you the truth, because this is never supposed to happen.
