Over the last 24 hrs numerous colleagues and friends have asked me what Secret Service sources are saying about the cancellation of outdoor events for President-elect Trump's inauguration. I will give you the unvarnished report of what I'm hearing while being extremely sensitive about trying not to make attendees more jittery than they already are. Most USSS sources I've discussed this with are sticking to the stiff upper lip, curt response: The cancellations are simply weather-related. But a few sources I trust have said the extreme weather is good cover to make things much safer because of the heightened security...

A new report released by the Committee on House Administration Subcommittee on Oversight into the January 6 pipe bomber shows the FBI stopped looking for the suspect in 2021 and covered up evidence.

...Donald Trump has survived two recent assassination attempts and his officials have asked for a string of extra protections during the final month of campaigning, according to sources familiar with the matter. Those include traveling on military jets, extra flight restrictions over his residences and events, and prepositioning ballistic glass in battleground states for open-air rallies. The requests are unprecedented for a presidential nominee. But insiders say it would simply match the protection afforded the president or that given to Ukrainian President Volodymr Zelensky, who flew on a military C-17 plane during his recent visit. ... President Joe Biden was...

We are in the middle of a hotly contested presidential election. There have already been two attempted assassinations of Donald Trump. Reliable sources report Iran has sniper teams here to kill The Donald. So what does the Secret Service do? It sends needed agents to an all-expense paid LGBTQ conference at what Disney calls "The Most Magical Place on Earth." The Secret Service leadership finally admitted they did not assign the full complement of agents to Trump’s detail in Butler, Pennsylvania. Only a few were fully trained Protective Detail agents. The rest of the squad came from the B-Team. They...

Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., made the startling claim Thursday that there are at least five known assassination teams in the U.S. conspiring to assassinate Donald Trump.Gaetz told Just the News and Breitbart that a senior Homeland Security official told him about the five assassination conspiracies before Sunday’s latest attempt on Trump at his West Palm Beach golf course.“Three of them that we know are foreign in nature. Two of them we know are domestic in nature, and that calls for a force protection that we do not have around the former president right now,” Gaetz said said, adding that DHS...

Americans are understandably wondering how another deranged lunatic was able to get within shooting distance of the most famous man in the world just two months after the first assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania. It turns out there may be a sinister and treasonous reason why. According to one respected GOP congressman, the country has to consider the strong possibility that there is someone in the Secret Service deliberately putting President Trump in danger. Rep. Eli Crane (R-AZ), a former Navy Seal, appeared on the Benny Johnson show Tuesday to give his perspective on the security failures that led to...

When it comes to the assassination attempt against former and potentially future President Donald Trump on July 13, Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) has been sharing details from whistleblowers about the incident, with more chilling details still coming out. As he revealed in a letter sent to Acting Secret Service Director Ronald Rowe, a whistleblower "alleges that officials at Secret Service headquarters encouraged agents in charge of the trip not to request any additional security assets in its formal manpower request--effectively denying these assets through informal means." Not only is such information particularly damning to the U.S. Secret Service (USSS) and...

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...
