Anthony Pough is an individual based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, who has been identified in media reports as a current U.S. Secret Service agent. He is facing significant backlash and disciplinary action after a Facebook post he made in response to the assassination of conservative commentator Charlie Kirk went viral. In the post, Pough wrote, “If you are Mourning this guy .. delete me. He spewed hate and racism on his show,” and referenced karma, stating, “You can only circumvent karma, she doesn't leave”.
Although some sources confirm his employment with the Secret Service, others note that there is no concrete public evidence yet verified by officials to confirm his status within the agency.
However, a DHS source reportedly confirmed to Laura Loomer that Pough is a current Secret Service agent who has been placed on administrative leave and is facing termination over the post.
Senator Marsha Blackburn has called for his immediate termination, criticizing both his conduct and the leadership of the Secret Service.
Pough’s professional background includes working as a Secret Service agent since 2016, according to RocketReach, along with prior roles in security and protective services.
He holds a Master’s in Public Administration from West Chester University of Pennsylvania, where he studied from 2012 to 2014.
