Watchdog group demands answers after ‘unbelievable security lapse’ by Trump’s Secret Service team

The Secret Service continues to endanger the president’s life with lax security, and the government is sitting on information that might expose recent failures which allowed President Trump to get shouted down by Code Pink protesters during a recent outing to a Washington DC restaurant, advocates fear.

“I’m just really concerned about the president’s safety,” Tom Fitton of Judicial Watch told The Post.

“He was almost killed twice supposedly under the protection of the Secret Service and then they walked him into a potentially dangerous ambush,” he said of the September incident at Joe’s Seafood, Prime Steak & Stone Crab.

The watchdog group has been trying for three months to get information on how the protesters got advance notice about Trump’s closely-held movements — at an event intended to demonstrate that the city was thriving under new federal security protection.

“These people were allowed to get within arm’s length of the sitting president with knives and who knows what else in the restaurant available to them,” Fitton said.

Wow! Why does Tom Fitton have to take on this responsibility (but glad he has!)? He certainly has a point! Why is Trump putting up with this, and why aren’t minions in the administration looking out for him?

Seems like everyone at DOJ, from Bondi all the way down, is doing an substandard job in this administration. Time to get them out and start over.

The Communist Party is relentless...
Spies everywhere...

Maybe I’m overstating it, but to have something like this happen means that a total flush of all SS agents and WH staff may be necessary...

If Bondi does absolutely nothing to this Omar, I’ve had it. I will write Trump relentlessly until he fires her.

“Omar (D-MN) went from nearly broke to being worth up to $30 million in just a year”

IN ONE YEAR!!!

They definitely don’t want to kill Trump. Really they don’t. Not unless they’re the stupidest people on this earth.

Many nation’s leaders have been felled by their internal security or military forces. (Sadat, Indira Ghandi, etc)

That would either place the President at more risk or would have him holed up in the White House until the new staff could be trained... by whom? These movements are immense, involving complex equipment and teamwork, each member requiring intimate familiarity to reduce operations to muscle memory.

One doesn't stand up a new system overnight, much less than from zero.

What the hell does Pam Bondi have to do with this story? Or are you just a bot that attacks Bondi for everything?

He won't, because she is doing exactly what he wants her to do.

And after Butler, Trump went ahead and put Sean Curran in charge of the SS, even though Curran was running the show in Butler.

And bad things continue to occur. 🤔

They do want to kill President Trump, and they are the stupidest people on earth.

Plan accordingly.

The future is what we make of it.

Are you insinuating that the attorney general has nothing to do with prosecuting a sitting govt official?

If President trump can’t do anything about his inept security then no one can do anything about it.

I agree...
However, my statement stands with respect to finding and eliminating all the POTUS “leak” sources...
