(Washington, DC) – Judicial Watch announced today it received 311 pages of U.S. Secret Service (USSS) records that show the Secret Service has made it a top priority that “diversity and inclusion is not just ‘talked about’ – but demonstrated by all employees through ‘Every Action, Every Day.’” [Emphasis in original] The records show the Secret Service, which is part of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), demands that 12 percent of its workforce be composed of “persons with disabilities,” and that it is the policy of the Secret Service to provide equal employment opportunity without regard to such non-merit...

The U.S. Secret Service has placed at least five agents on leave, including the head of the Pittsburgh field office, as a result of its investigation into last month's assassination attempt against former President Donald Trump, according to multiple sources familiar with the matter. One agent on Trump's detail and three others in the Pittsburgh office were among those placed on leave, according to two federal law enforcement sources. It's unclear if all of these actions are disciplinary, since agents are routinely placed on leave during the course of investigations for various reasons, including mental health relief.

The more information that leaks out regarding the Trump rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, the worse it looks for the Secret Service. Senator Josh Hawley on Friday obtained more damning information from a Secret Service whistleblower that the agency headquarters specifically ordered agents not to request any additional manpower for the event because such requests would be denied on the spot. It’s almost as if the Secret Service senior staffers wanted President Trump dead and buried. How can he place any trust in the agency going forward? Below is the entire letter from Hawley containing the full details of the betrayal:

It was a shot from above that killed would-be assassin Thomas Crooks at a July campaign rally where he almost murdered President Donald Trump. But it was a shot from below that took Crooks out of action first, according to a congressional report ... And that shot, fired by a local law enforcement sniper, was incredible. ... Louisiana Republican Rep. Clay Higgins...

In case anyone doubted that the Secret Service was engaged in a cover-up over the cocaine baggie found in the White House in 2022 — it was. The latest reports: As soon as a uniformed officer found the drugs and notified disgraced ex-Director Kim Cheatle that he wanted to follow certain crime scene protocols, the retaliations began — starting with that officer allegedly being taken off the case. Leadership apparently began to pressure forensics workers to stop trying to find DNA matches, and sought to avoid interviewing the hundreds of people with access to the space where the drugs were...
