Are you talking about the Puerto Rican nationalist attack on the U.S. Congress in the 1950's?
There isn't any footage of that attack. You'd be hard pressed to even find a news report on it, because in those days news stations taped over things to re-use recording tape. It was expensive.

Perhaps, I thought there was something in the 80’s. Thanks for the info!

no one died
led by a women
that cuck Carter pardoned them
Calling them leftists is a little bit of a misdirection since they were more Puerto Rican separatists or nationalist

It mentions in the link that several people were injured but no deaths.
There was also a bombing there maybe after WW1? I didn't look it up but there have been several incidents much worse than J-6.

Or communists, socialist or fascists, which are still Leftist. Take your pick. They were NOT limited government conservatives.
I doubt they wanted the same government that Jefferson, Adams, Hamilton, et.al, wanted.
They seem to be more in line with Robespierre, eh?

Ok,I was mistaken. But the premise still stands. Post all hypocrisy of the left here pertaining to terrorism, facist behavior, gross or otherwise. I want to make a homage to our past couple of years/history. If I get enough I will post the product Dec 24.

Now, the November 1950 attempted assassination of Truman DID result in deaths.
A uniformed SS/White House Police officer, Leslie Coffelt, was killed as was one of the separatists.
In a transparent attack to curry favor with Puerto Ricans, Carter pardoned the surviving separatist with the 54 Congressional attackers in 1979.

Yes. The WH was being renovated in 1950 so the Presidential residence was temporarily at Blair House. Now, Truman was not home so they were assaulting a home with only security and staff, but the symbolism was potent (and they did not know it at the time that Truman was not home).

To date Coffelt is the only WH Police officer to die in the line of duty.
Side note, a White House Police Officer (Tom Delahanty) was wounded in the 1981 Reagan attempt by Hinckley, as was press secretary Jim Brady and SS agent Tim McCarthy. Brady's death, years later, was attributed to the wounds he received that day. Also, Giuseppe Zangara tried to kill FDR and killed Chicago mayor Anton Cermak instead.
I think those are the only deaths recorded in Presidential assassination attempts, other than the 4 successes (Lincoln, Garfield, McKinley and Kennedy) the assassins, and some alleged associates of Booth.
