Whistleblowers Reveal Secret Service Lapses in Trump Protection

Senator Josh Hawley accuses the Secret Service of concealing inadequate security measures for former President Trump after multiple assassination attempts.

Senator Josh Hawley has criticized the Secret Service for allegedly failing to provide adequate protection to former President Donald Trump, citing whistleblower reports.
Two assassination attempts against Trump have raised concerns about the effectiveness of his security detail, leading to the resignation of the previous Secret Service head.
Whistleblowers claim that Secret Service leadership blocked auditors from the Department of Homeland Security from assessing Trump's security at campaign events.
The Secret Service is accused of selectively allowing audits only at events where full protection is provided, creating a misleading impression of consistent security.
Following these allegations, Hawley has sent letters demanding transparency and accountability from the Secret Service and the Department of Homeland Security.
