It Just Keeps Getting Worse: Secret Service Reportedly Denied Trump Team’s Requests for More Security

The news just keeps getting worse for the Secret Service and Director Kimberly Cheatle as more and more information comes out regarding their failure to keep Donald Trump safe at his rally on July 13 in Butler, Pennsylvania. The president came within less of an inch of losing his life as a would-be assassin was inexplicably allowed to create a perch on a rooftop that had a clear sightline to the former president (and now GOP nominee).

The latest bombshell, delivered Saturday evening by The Washington Post: that Trump’s team had repeatedly asked for more security over the last two years, only to be rebuffed.

RedState’s Jennifer O’Connell reported shortly after the shooting that radio host and former Secret Service agent Dan Bongino made similar claims.

The sheer amount of errors was shocking, and more and more reports are piling up of intra-departmental communication issues, lack of preparedness, and an overall lack of professionalism.

Not only was the roof supposed to be secured, but the shooter had been identified as a possible risk by law enforcement yet was allowed to roam around unmolested—even as audience members pointed him out. He even took drone footage of the site beforehand. Meanwhile, there have been multiple pundits pointing out that many of the agents seemed ill-prepared and unsuited to take on the responsibility of protecting Trump, possibly because DEI has become more important to Cheatle than competence.

This new information being reported by the Post will only add more fire to the calls for Cheatle to resign and for procedures to be completely revamped:

As RedState’s Becca Lower reported Wednesday, the House Oversight Committee and Chairman James Comer (R-KY) first “invited” and then formally subpoenaed Cheatle to appear at a hearing on Monday, and she has reportedly agreed to testify. Should that hearing occur as scheduled, it is sure to be extremely heated as lawmakers demand answers to the unprecedented failure that almost led to a historic and awful outcome. (And we must never forget, it did in fact end with a horrible outcome for Corey Comperatore). 

The more information that comes out, the worse things are looking for the Secret Service and the Biden administration. The American people want answers, and we’ll find out Monday if we get some.
