The president is no longer safe on the White House grounds, according to former Secret Service agent Dan Bongino, who once guarded presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama.
Bongino made the stunning assessment in an interview Friday with Fox News. It followed an incident last Friday night when a man jumped the White House fence and may have roamed the property for as long as 15 minutes before he was stopped by the Secret Service.
Jonathan Tran, who carried two cans of mace, set off multiple alarms, Bongino said, and was even spotted by Secret Service officers, but was still able to come within “close proximity” of the White House and even reportedly “jiggled the door” to the executive mansion.
“The intruder set off multiple alarms, alarms that clearly showed someone breached the property, and he was seen by officers who didn't think anything of it. This is a big story,” Bongino told Fox News....

Yes...steadfast prayers must continue for the safety and His supernatural protection over our dear POTUS.
The article mentioned that an investigation is under way, by Rep Chaffetz’ committee.
I thought this was an interesting note, from the linked article....
The episode recalled another in September 2014, when Omar Gonzales penetrated the White House grounds and actually made it inside. Then-Secret Service Director Julia Pierson afterward conceded “mistakes were made.” But the Secret Service was found to have publicly lied about how far Gonzales made it into the White House.
It cost Pierson her job.
They later found the White House alarms had been muted in the Gonzales incident.
Trump has had top notch security for a long long time.
This SS goon spilling his guts .... SS laptop with Trump Tower playbook stolen.....
The continual smear of the current administration continues.
Everything is officially in a bad light.
The top of the hour radio news yesterday was reporting on oil prices and how great efforts were being made to get the price back above $50/bbl. The exact same reporterette on the same channel that a few months ago was praising the last president for $40/bbl crude.
Everything the media chooses to let you be privileged to be hearing from them is FAKE. FAKE in every way.
... I don’t understand. Do you think that if JFK packed an AK47 that things would be any different....
A President riding through city streets in an open convertible is one thing.
Not being secure in the supposedly secure White House is another. Two recent jumpers at the White House. One being on premises 15 minutes before anyone noticed. Another actually entering inside and being near the stairs leading to the living quarters is another matter.
The President carrys. He should continue. And also have a 12 gauge in the bedroom.
Secret Service is continually showing that they are currently unable to keep intruders out of the White House and the “secure” grounds.
There's a difference between being in an open convertible and the presumed safety of the White House. Your example is ridiculous.
sorry I disagree.
There is no where no such timetable/schedule about that so we are not “passed due” for such horrible occurrences like you stated.
He is sae where ever he and his entire family goor there will be blood in the streets.
If this story as reported is true, all agents on duty at the time need to be canned and jailed.
I must say, I love your idea.Let the Dems stay by themselves in their DC Echo chamber-—they’ll quickly start having nightmares.
A lot of Freepers recently laughed at the notion that 30 to 40 armed thugs could make there way to the White House. In that scenario, Trump wouldn’t stand a chance. Jfk is just one situation that couldn’t happen, Trump is another.
Safely said the president’s desire to live is very strong. He knows what he is up against. Moles will be crushed soon and foes vanquished...I for one believe in this and will not succumb to chicken littleism.
I agree. Trump needs to clean house of the current SS agents. I don’t trust the obama holdovers.
Nor do I and never have.
I’m starting to believe that a concerted attack against the White House would take out the unprofessional, bumbling Secret Service in 15 minutes or less. The Hollywood version of a Rambo SS is most likely fiction.
President Trump needs to hire private security.
What is really frickin scary just like big earthquakes and such we are past due for the loss of a siting president prayers up

Sorry, but that is one fu*ked up view.
The SS has really gone to hell since Bongino left.
Who knew that it was him who really kept Presidential security together?
...Trump wouldn’t stand a chance...
Hes the kind of a man who would go down fighting. I don’t think you would deny that. The way things are now, the SS is incapable of defending the White House against a coordinated attack there. Probably at none of the private residences either.
The family just can’t sit helpless in the family quarters. My family can’t. Yours can’t. Neither can anyone else’s.
I agree its a messed up view but tell me that whats going on with the ss and the left aint more f uped
Survey says.......
You Are Right!
He also has a website... Surprise, Surprise, Surprise!
He also ran for the HOR in very heavilly Republican district... and got 17% of the vote.
As the old Texas saying goes; “He finished fifth in a three man race!”
Be well.
The Schutzstaffel started out as Hitlers personal protection squad, their initials were SS.
He couldn’t trust the police to protect him, and there was the added plus of being able to set them loose on his political enemies to break heads and maintain order.
If only Trump had the stones.
