Former Secret Service agent and prominent political commentator Dan Bongino is sounding the alarm after multiple attempts on former President Donald Trump’s life.
Following two attempts on Trump since July 13, Bongino posted a lengthy message on his Facebook page raising some questions about the United States Secret Service.
Below is Bongino’s full post:
An eye opening experience I had as a young Secret Service agent was the experiences I had as the “press agent.” Newer agents on the president’s detail are assigned to babysit the press because that’s where you’ll do the least damage if you screw something up. I would sit with them all day on trips and fly back home on the “press plane” with them.
Some conclusions I drew from many hours and days of immersion with them:
1) Most of them are genuine imbeciles. Their conversations ranged from absurd to ignorant, to downright ridiculous.
2) They love to stand in judgment of others but, in the pre-cell phone camera era, they would engage in some of the worst debauchery you’ve ever seen on those planes. They’re really a disgusting group of people.
3) Most of them really despise Americans who actually work for a living. They consider themselves part of a community of knighted aristocrats and they look down on the people they’re supposed to cover. I saw it. And you should treat these losers with the respect they deserve, meaning none at all.
Bongino has been questioning the Secret Service for months.
Earlier this month, Bongino suggested the possibility of a “mole” within the Secret Service or Department of Homeland Security.
“I have to ask you all a really troubling question now that I promised you 10 years ago I would have called myself nuts for asking this,” Bongino said before a long pause. “Is there a mole inside the DHS or Secret Service?”
Bongino highlighted several documented cases of foreign nationals or governments attempting to infiltrate and undermine federal agencies. He cited a notable example where two individuals were convicted of impersonating federal agents in an elaborate scheme that deceived the Secret Service.
“Folks, what happened yesterday in Secret Service jargon, the movement to the golf, the golf course, Donald Trump going to play golf at the golf course is what we call an OTR. Stands for an off-the-record movement, meaning it’s not on the official schedule, meaning very few people have access to it,” Bongino explained.
“What makes me even more curious about what happened yesterday is apparently the decision to golf was made at the last minute. Meaning, there were probably – when the decision was made, less than 10 people who knew about it. How’d this guy know to set up there?”
“How did he know how to set up, and where to set up, and that Trump was going to be there? Folks, the mole may not be a foreign national himself. I don’t want you to think Jason Bourne stuff. Don’t overcomplicate what doesn’t need to be overcomplicated,” he continued.
“Is there a honeypot trap going on in the Secret Service? Is there a guy or a woman in the Secret Service having a relationship with someone who is not who they say they are? The Iranians have been running these traps in Israel and elsewhere. The Iranians who want to kill President Trump. Folks, how do we know that there’s not some kind of honeypot trap and that some agent or some DHS personnel, someone who has to be notified, is not in a relationship with someone?”
Throughout the segment, Bongino continued to cite several instances of foreign interference with federal agents, including one case he was personally acquainted with.
