we already know the Secret Service fouled this up for one very simple reason

No, we don't. The Secret Service may have done everything right. Identify the risk. Take steps to mitigate the risk - secure the building, observe the roof, put snipers in place. But the Secret Service doesn't have the manpower to do all of this themselves. They must rely on local assistance. Maybe it was the locals who screwed up. Is that the fault of the Feds?

This is what the investigation is for. To figure out what went wrong. You want to jump to conclusions, but life just isn't that simple.
