Secret Service Whistleblower Warns There Will Be More Assassination Attempts
SUMMARY
A Secret Service whistleblower has warned of a potential assassination attempt against former President Donald Trump before November's election. The email, sent by a counter-sniper who remains unnamed, criticized the agency's response to a recent rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, where Trump was wounded, and a supporter was killed by a shooter. The whistleblower, who also criticized former Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle, alleged that agents were inadequately prepared despite requests for increased security. The email detailed that the shooter had flown a drone over the rally and hidden a gun at the venue. It also mentioned lapses in communication and coordination, such as a Beaver County sniper's warnings about the shooter. The Secret Service quickly deleted the email, but security lapses and internal disputes have heightened concerns about future threats.
