EXCLUSIVE and #BREAKING: This is a current Secret Service agent, stating in a Facebook post, that Charlie Kirk deserved what he got.

"You can't circumvent karma, [sic] she doesnt [sic] leave."

The comments are similar to the incendiary remarks now former @MSNBC contributor Matthew Dowd made on the network. The network fired Dowd from his contributorship yesterday for saying "hateful thoughts lead to hateful words, which then lead to hateful actions."

MSNBC called Dowd's comments "insensitive and unacceptable" and ultimately fired him.

The Secret Service agent's post is circulating in the Secret Service community with some agents upset over his sentiments because he appears to be celebrating the death of a political figure, and one whom the president is honoring with the Presidential Medal of Freedom and has often had by his side at events over the last several years.

Trump and others also credit Kirk with Trump's victory at the polls through the work he did rallying young people on college campuses and getting them out to vote.

What about other MAGA figures who often appear with Trump -- would the agent's political views prevent him from protecting Trump effectively or anyone who may be targeted while appearing with Trump or another administration official?

"If that's all it takes to set you off, that's dangerous to have around," one source in the Secret Service community told @RCPolitics about the agent's Facebook post on Kirk's death.

"I'm mostly concerned about the morals of a person sworn to protect the rights of others to engage in politics and exercise free speech, celebrating the death of someone exercising those same rights," the source added.

Several of the agent's Facebook posts negatively comment on Trump, his administration, and its policies, but nothing that I've reviewed is as pointed and offensive as this agent's post about Kirk's death.

I'm told this agent, who is in Phase 2 of his career, is not on a detail that would be regularly charged with protecting Trump. Yet, all agents, at times, are called off their official details/duties to contribute to presidential coverage of some kind or another.

In 2017, I reported on a now-retired senior agent named Kerry O'Grady who suggested in a Facebook post just weeks before the 2016 election that she wouldn't take a bullet for Trump. The Secret Service placed O'Grady, then the boss of the Denver Field Office, on paid administrative for nearly two years to allow her to hit her retirement date. She left the agency in 2019 with full pension benefits.

In the Wednesday Facebook post, the Secret Service agent, Anthony Pough, justifies his "karma" comments by making a blanket statement that "Charlie Kirk spews hate and racism on his show and adding the words: "Charlie Kirk says black women do not have the brain processing power."

It's an undeniably controversial subject matter, but the broad statement Pough referred to didn't include the full context.

These are Kirk's full comments in July 2023 after the Supreme Court declared affirmative action programs at public and private colleges and universities are unconstitutional.

Joy Reid, Michelle Obama, Sheila Jackson Lee, and Kentanji Jackson ― an MSNBC host, former first lady, U.S. representative, and Supreme Court justice, respectively — had all expressed strong disagreement with the ruling.

Kirk: "You really have to wonder. In fact, you know, if we would have said three weeks ago, Blake, if we would have said that Joy Reid and Michelle Obama and the late Rep. Sheila Jackson, Lee and Ketanji Brown Jackson were affirmative action picks, we would have been racist, but now they're coming out, and they're saying it for us."

"They're coming out and they're saying, 'I'm only here because [of] affirmative action.'"

He then played footage of Jackson Lee, stating that she was a "clear recipient of affirmative actions, and particularly in higher education," but insisting that she graduated on her own merits.

Kirk then added this response, appearing to refer to Jackson Lee, who had just spoken in the clip he shared with his audience:

"Yeah, we know you do not have the brain processing power to otherwise be taken really seriously. You had to go steal a white person's slot to go be taken somewhat seriously."

“It’s very obvious to us that you were not smart enough to be able to get in on your own,” he added.

I don’t trust the SS, especially after watching them fumble around in Butler, PA.

I would claim that his statement is probable cause to haul him in for interrogation, and then make his worthless life as miserable as possible for as long as possible, before firing him.

Since when is Jackson Lee “all black women?”

Calling her out for being stupid is just speaking truth to power, she doesn’t represent all black women, only herself.

Did she give examples of his hatred? She has the right to say nasty things.

Was the SS fumbling around in Butler, PA, or were they part of the plot? I don’t trust them. Probably most of them are decent people but all it takes is a few to make life dangerous for the President.

The attended pretentious construction of the incoherent last sentence is sufficient to justify his dismissal.

Yes, we answer to God and NO!

WE do NOT speak things into existence.

This guy does not belong in the Secret Service.

I’m guessing this guy was hired under Biden Admin. and per DEI, as was likely the grossly incompetent (imo) former female Director of the SS, who was in charge of the SS at the time Trump was shot in PA.

Fortunately, she’s gone.

With his opinions, how could he logically protect President Trump? Answer: He cannot. Transfer his butt. Maybe Gitmo
