The latest revelation about the Secret Service and their handling of threats against Donald Trump is nothing short of a national embarrassment. A new report exposes a system so tangled in its own red tape and incompetence that it almost led to a tragedy of epic proportions. A year ago, Trump faced an assassination attempt that could have been thwarted if only the so-called guardians of our nation had bothered to do their job. They had warning signs. They had intel. What did they do with it? Absolutely nothing.

Ten days before the attack, the Secret Service sat on classified information about a dangerous threat to Trump’s life. Did they tell local police who could have upped the security? No. Did they inform Trump’s own protective detail? Nope. These guys probably thought they were meeting quota just by showing up to work. It turns out, their definition of security involves ignoring crucial intelligence while letting the swamp swallow them in bureaucracy.
Let’s not forget the real kicker: Trump’s team asked for better surveillance as a necessary precaution. But, surprise surprise, those requests were waved off. Why? Because the drones were needed for political conventions. Apparently, the sitting president’s life takes a backseat to pageantry. Only at the eleventh hour, when it was nearly too late, were counter-sniper teams authorized. That rushed, last-minute move is probably the only reason Trump dodged a bullet—not because of any grand Secret Service strategy, but pure, blind luck.
Our president was left vulnerable because bureaucrats were too busy playing politics. Their incompetence let an assassin take a shot at Trump and cost an innocent life. Washington, D.C. once again proved that it prioritizes political games over the safety of our leaders. This is the same Washington that claims to protect Americans, yet its actions tell another story. It’s a sad day when we need to ask if our leaders would rather line their pockets with globalist interests than actually do their job.
And now, six agents face suspension. But what about the higher-ups who kept crucial intel behind closed doors? Are they still settling into cushy government jobs, unfazed by their negligence? Until those truly responsible are held accountable, this broken system will never change. The only question left: why should any American believe this will ever be fixed?
