BREAKING: Secret Service’s Latest SHOCKING Failure To Protect Trump Is Revealed

A litany of security failures by the Secret Service agents around former President Donald Trump continues to grow, with Newsmax highlighting the latest instance of a member abandoning her post in the middle of a shift.

The 60-member team of highly trained servicemen and women around presidents serve in the upper echelon of the clandestine protection agency. However, in the wake of the assassination attempt against Trump, revelations about mismanagement, recriminations, and security lapses in the Secret Service have strengthened a narrative that the agency is falling woefully short and may have contributed to the shooting that nearly took the former president’s life. During a Wednesday event in North Carolina, a female agent in President Trump’s detail abandoned her post in order to breastfeed her baby, a security lapse uncovered by RealClearPolitics that is just one of several documented in recent days. President Trump was in Asheville to tout his proposal for eliminating federal taxes on tipped wages.

About five minutes before Trump’s motorcade arrived at the Thomas Wolfe Auditorium, the female agent who managed security for the entire event performed a final sweep of the location before finding an agent breastfeeding with two other family members present in a room set aside for official business or emergency incidents involving the former president. The outlet added that the agent did not have permission to leave her post and gave no warning prior to disappearing, and Secret Service agents are prohibited from bringing children or family members to events while they are on a protective assignment.

Alana Austin with Newsmax added to the report that a whistleblower within the Secret Service wrote to his colleagues about his concern that another attack on President Trump was likely imminent. “The calendar intensifies leading up to the November elections,” she added, and the Secret Service has for years objected to being overstretched during election years as it seeks to protect current and former presidents as well as their running mates. A spokesperson told Austin in response, “All employees of the Secret Service are held to the highest standards. While there was no impact to the North Carolina event, the specifics of this incident are being examined. Given this is a personnel matter, we are not in a position to comment further.”

The security failure came weeks after another, which occurred while President Trump was preparing to take the stage at a Bitcoin conference in Nashville. Secret Service agents kept the Republican backstage while working with event personnel to locate and remove two individuals who had credentials to be on the floor but made their way around metal detectors.

A top-down review of the 60-member team by agency brass is zeroing in on other missteps by a particular agent who helped formulate the protective measures around Trump on the day of an assassination attempt that nearly took his life. According to RealClearPolitics, Secret Service leadership has uncovered that the individual had been compromising the Republican’s security by posting otherwise innocuous messages on social media that revealed his location at Mar-a-Lago.

On July 13th, a gunman struck Trump’s ear with a high-caliber rifle round, nearly killing him before Secret Service snipers shot and killed the young man. Twenty-year-old Thomas Crooks, a recent high school graduate who became infatuated with guns and political leaders, was able to avoid Secret Service scrutiny in the days leading up to a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, and even during the event itself. An ongoing FBI investigation has found that Crooks flew a drone above the site shortly before President Trump went on stage, and during the speech, he was seen by snipers crawling along the ground with a rangefinder as he searched for a vantage point to the stage. FBI Director Christopher Wray told lawmakers on Friday that he can’t get into all the specifics of why Crooks was able to slip through intense security measures.
