Former Secret Service agent, author, and Conservative podcaster Dan Bongino predicted another security “incident” just weeks before the second assassination attempt on former president Donald Trump at his West Palm Beach golf club in Florida on Sunday.
In August, Rep. Eli Crane, R-Ariz., asked Bongino, “Is the Secret Service in a better spot today with Director Rowe in charge?”
“No, it’s worse,” Bongino replied.
He then predicted that “something else” would happen, adding, “I pray to my Lord and savior Jesus Christ that I’m wrong.”
“[If] you think this is the last incident, you’re out of your mind,” he said.

The former Secret Service agent also warned that Ronald L. Rowe Jr., who replaced Kimberly Cheatle as interim director, represents more of “the same people” in charge on July 13.
“Kim Cheatle, the director, wasn’t even fired. She was allowed to resign,” Bongino noted.
“She’ll go get some cushy job somewhere, and her deputy” got promoted.
According to Bongino, whistleblowers within the Secret Service told him that Rowe “was concerned about the tie color of the agents on the detail because it seemed to imply they supported President Trump. This is the kind of stuff the Secret Service was actually wasting their time with.”
“If you can explain it, then good luck, because that’s not the agency I worked for,” he quipped.
In August, Bongino also made a stunning revelation about the Secret Service security failures, which led to the Trump assassination attempt in Pennsylvania.
He noted during an appearance on Donald Trump Jr.’s podcast “Triggered,” that the rooftop from which the failed Trump assassin Thomas Matthew Crooks fired shots was not covered by law enforcement personnel.
“That post, according to my source, that roof was supposed to be a police post. It was supposed to be someone there,” he said.
“They’re now making up excuses, saying the pitch of the roof… my source says to me, no one knows why the post didn’t show up,” Bongino revealed.
He added that Secret Service Director Kim Cheatle has been instructed by Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas to “keep her mouth shut” if she wants to remain in her post.
On Sunday, Trump almost lost his life again after a man wielding an AK-47-style rifle was spotted from a distance of 300 to 500 opening fire while he was playing golf.
The suspect fled the scene after Secret Service agents returned fire.
58-year-old Ryan Wesley Routh was apprehended after witnesses spotted his vehicle.
Meanwhile, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis announced he will investigate the Trump assassination attempt to ensure that no crucial evidence is being hidden
The Florida Governor wrote on X:
“The State of Florida will be conducting its own investigation regarding the attempted assassination at Trump International Golf Club.”
“The people deserve the truth about the would-be assassin and how he was able to get within 500 yards of the former president and current GOP nominee.”
That’s what I read as well. The SS guys fired on him first and he fled like the coward he is................

Biden Ordered Secret Service Protection for Cheatle the Forced-Out Agency Chief

The Secret Service is providing Kimberly Cheatle, its former director who resigned last month, a security detail in an unprecedented effort to protect a former agency chief amid lingering national anger about the myriad security lapses under her watch that led to the assassination attempt against former President Donald Trump and the killing of firefighter Corey Comperatore, according to three sources in the Secret Service community.
Cheatle has faced an ongoing firestorm of fury from Americans citizens, and even rank-and-file Secret Service special agents and officers, over the agency’s failures that created an opening for shooter Thomas Crooks to open fire on Trump, piercing his ear and killing Comperatore in front of his family and wounding two other rally-goers.

Joe Biden praised ex-Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle, who resigned after facing a barrage of angry lawmakers on both sides of the aisle at a hearing on the agency’s failure to prevent an assassination attempt against President Donald Trump.
Biden said in his statement on Tuesday:
“Jill and I are grateful to Director Kim Cheatle for her decades of public service. She has selflessly dedicated and risked her life to protect our nation throughout her career in the United States Secret Service. We especially thank her for answering the call to lead the Secret Service during our Administration and we are grateful for her service to our family.”

With The Party in charge of Congress to approve of a new VP, JD will be in great jeopardy if Trump is elected.
Cheatle’s forced resignation should not deter us from determining the significance of the stunning payroll numbers coming out of the Trump shooting debacle.
<><>Cheatle employed 7100 Secret Service Special agents and 2800 Task Force Officers, plus Uniformed Division officers, Technical Law Enforcement officers, and administrative, professional, and technical personnel on the tax-paid govt payroll. Complete with perks, privileges, bonuses, perpetual healthcare, and pensions.
<><>Mayorkas’ Homeland Security Investigations division which apparently “lent” employees to Cheatle has over 9,800 Special Agents and tactical officers on the tax-paid govt payroll. Complete With perks privileges bonuses and pensions.
<><>The Executive Office of the President employs 1800 tax-paid individuals, some 584 in the WH alone. Taxpayers paid $158.8 million on the largest White House payroll in American history, based on headcount. White House staff for FY2023 collectively cost $52,775,234.
Yet, Biden, Mayorkas and Cheatle denied Trump’s request for increased security.
The Biden regime sent $200,000,000,000 tax dollars to Ukraine to protect “democracy,”
but could not find the tax dollars to beef up security for a presidential candidate.
Message: Payroll fraud is widespread and easy to pull off on the govt payroll.
There are several methodologies used, including
<><>submitting falsified time sheets,
<><>issuing unauthorized paychecks, healthcare, bonuses, benefits and overtime
<><>enrolling fictitious employees in pension plans.
The govt fraudster simply sets up fictitious employees and arranges for them to receive a salary,
benefits, overtime payments, bonuses and pensions, even though they do not perform any duties.
The fraudster then diverts the fraudulent payments into their bank account or that of an accomplice.
Please Dan, look into UKRAINE and VINDMAN CONNECTIONS!
It would probably help clean up the mess from their lawfare abuses, too.
The Left needs assassination to work for a whole lot of reasons.
Bingo. We ALL predicted this would happen again. Bongino doesn’t have the inside scoop on stuff like this.
Since we are talking about predictions, here’s mine: there will likely be more near-misses; this will condition the public to accept what the ultimate goal is - “oh, well, it was just a matter of time.” Pray for the man, and his security team.
It’s very likely that kamala rhetoric is what incited the maggot to attempt to assassinate pres Trump. She called him a criminal of the worst sort, and accused him of being a threat to society, and the creep in the bushes likely was thinking that he was “saving democracy” by doing what he did.
The left are in desperation mode now because they know that their violent rhetoric is causing nutjobs to attempt to kill pres Trump, so they are lamely attempting to blame pres Trump himself for inciting the violence against himself. It won’t work. Everyone with even a modicum of common sense knows that the left are Whipping mentally unstable maggots into a murderous frenzy
This is the first allegation I've seen that Roush fired his weapon. Has anyone seen reports that the perp fired?
Last I heard, Dan Bongino lives in Palm City FL. Ryan Routh was apprehended on I-95 near the Palm City/Stuart exit.
Bongino is probably the most public person who predicted this.
Not sure there were many others.
Many of us did the same.
They need to put him in charge of the Secret Service.
It won’t be the last.
Not sure if calling Congress does anything at this point.
It's disgusting how corrupt this nation has become.
Only President Trump is trying to save it, even at risk to his own life.
I agree that the evil ones will continue with their attempts to assassinate him.
They will continue until they are stopped.
It's not complicated in that respect.
Why are they not stopped?
Assassination attempt is attempted murder, but apparently that's just fine if you're possibly involved in it and work for the government?
I don't get it. Is the United States now, really just another corrupt third world country where political challengers are taken out? If so,it's sickening that it's come to this.
Continued prayers for President Trump and his family for protection from all harm. 🙏
The payroll fraud post has been posted multiple times. I recently
heard it referenced on Fox News. So rest assured, the word is out.
WRT calling Congress, just do nothing and see what happens.
The perp drove 42 miles before a private citizen photo of the License tag led to his escape being foiled.
If the SS uses drones how could this guy drive off? Again, no way he goes 42 miles after attempting to kill a former president, or presidential candidate.
I wonder how many drones they are using ?
They should be using several drones if they were smart.
I would think four or five, a dedicated recon over the area and several interceptors that could have chased the shooter. I would keep a couple more drones in reserve as an anti drone defense,.
The technology is there , why not put it to use ?
Fox News is saying the location the shooter used to point his rifle at Trump is known to be the only one outside the golf course from which golfers on the course can be spotted.
Including being known and used in the past by media members to obtain video of Trump on this course.
