Secret Service Agent “Accidentally” Shoots Himself with His Own Weapon
Gateway Pundit ^ | 09/22/2024 | Cullen Linebarger

The Secret Service in America not only failed to protect President Trump from nearly getting assassinated on two occasions, but it’s so discombobulated that agents are now shooting themselves.

WUSA 9 revealed today that a United States Secret Service (USSS) agent was on duty Saturday evening right before 8 p.m. when he “negligently” discharged his weapon and shot himself. The incident reportedly happened near 32nd and Fessenden Streets in northwest Washington, DC.

He was taken to a local hospital for treatment and is expected to recover from his injuries. The Secret Service is not making any further details public at this time as they plan to investigate what happened.

He now gets one cartridge to keep in his shirt pocket, ala Barney Fife.

In 2026 I will have owned my Glock for 40 years, and my Glock knives I’ve already owned longer than that.

Perhaps he was trying to walk on a sloped surface?

“The Secret Service is not making any further details public at this time as they plan to investigate what happened.”

The moron was practicing his quick draw again and shot himself. The investigation is over.

This also happened years ago in a Philadelphia school.

A Secret Service Agent Of Color (SSAOC) was demonstrating his Glock pistol to the little boys and girls.

After saying in a loud voice “no one in this room is professional enough to handle this weapon, except me,” he accidentally discharge the Glock, which was loaded with live ammo.

Of course, what happened to the SSAOC after this little performance was “a personnel matter,” and not made public.

"He?"

I will bet my left boob that it was a SHE - probably some overweight Homeland desk jockey recently graduated from an online webinar - who did it, and they are once again LYING to us.

Looks like the middle of a nice neighborhood. No businesses there. What kind of ‘duty’ was he on ?

Happened to watch Dillinger last night. 1973 one with Ben Johnson. The silent end notes narrative of what happened after the movie said FBI agent Melvin Purvis (who lit his cigar as the signal the Lady in Red was leaving the Biograph Theater next to Dillinger and agents could start firing at him along with Purvis) said Purvis shot himself in 1960 with the gun used to kill Dillinger. His girlfriend Evelyn “Billie” Frechette (Michelle Phillips first film role) died in 1969.


Controversy still ongoing about what really happened when Purvis died:

Purvis died from a gunshot wound to the head on February 29, 1960. The shot was fired from a pistol that fellow FBI agents gifted him to honor his time with the bureau. The FBI investigated his death and ruled it a suicide but that was not the cause of death listed in the coroner’s report. A subsequent investigation suggested that a bullet might have been jammed in the chamber and been fired while Purvis cleaned his gun.

Time was when a story referred to someone as “he” you would know they’re talking about a man. Now who knows, especially when the media would hide the identity of a female who might look foolish by the story being told. By promoting a political narrative, there is no credibility left.

Exactly why I never chamber a round. I am not quick draw. And I do not want to have to explain why I shot myself in the butt to the emergency room.staff.
