Whistleblower claims Trump still lacks Secret Service detail despite assassination attempts

The U.S. Secret Service is still not providing the utmost security protection to former President Donald Trump, according to yet another whistleblower.

Two assassination attempts in the same number of months over the summer has yet to sway the protective agency to boost protection to the upper perimeters, as The Daily Mail reported.

Following this revelation, legislators, Republicans, and Trump supporters have called for a significant increase in security detail for the 2024 presidential nominee.

The Secret Service officials are preventing Department of Homeland Security auditors from accessing Trump's rallies in order to conceal the fact that Trump is not receiving the full extent of protection, according to revelations from Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO).

The SS's Position

The security failures of USSS that resulted in the assassination attempts against Trump are the subject of numerous investigations, including those conducted by Congress and government agencies.

The Secret Service continues to fail in its obligations to ensure Trump's security, as indicated by two whistleblowers.

On Tuesday, Hawley was interviewed by Sean Hannity on Fox News to address the implications of these whistleblowers' allegations.

From Hawley

“I tell you what, I’ve had enough of this from Secret Service leadership. I really have. They need to level with the American people about what’s going on here," the lawmaker said vehemently.

"They need to tell us if Trump is really getting all the security he needs. These rallies need to be safe for everybody who goes to them. And I’ve had enough of the prevarication, of the concealment, and the stonewalling. It’s got to stop.”

Calls for further protection for the former president have been on the rise, particularly following a second and possible third attempts on the former president's life.

Previous Attempt

Since Ronald Reagan was assassinated in 1981, this attack in Butler, Pennsylvania, was the first time that a president had been targeted.

At that time, Trump had been on the campaign trail for around 18 months and was just a few days away from becoming the nominee for president proposed by the Republican Party.

One person was killed and three others were injured, including President Trump. Despite the shot in the ear, Trump came out largely unscathed, though loaded for bear, wanting his supporters to know that this would not deter his campaign aspirations, or his desire to be the 45th and 47th president of the United States.

However, sadly one person, Corey Comperatore, who was fifty years old and served as a volunteer fire chief, husband, and parent, was killed.
