Secret Service Director Allegedly Told to Keep Quiet After Mistake on Roof with Trump Shooter: Bongino

Former Secret Service agent Dan Bongino said he was informed by an “unimpeachable source” that the rooftop where Thomas Crooks shot at former President Donald Trump on Saturday was supposed to be manned, but that person never showed up.

Bongino made the bombshell revelation Tuesday on a Rumble Live “Triggered” podcast at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee with host Donald Trump Jr., billionaire David Sacks and media mogul Tucker Carlson.

“Can I break some news on your show?” he began.

Bongino then told the panel the Biden administration and Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas threatened to fire Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle if she ever told anyone about these egregious lapses.

“According to my source, that roof was supposed to be a police post. … [there] was so supposed to be someone there,” he said.

“They’re now making up excuses saying the pitch of the roof [was sloped so they didn’t man the station]. My source says to me that no one knows why the post didn’t show up. But, so that’s a nonsense story they’re putting out in the media.

“And I was also told that the Secret Service director has been given instructions from the administration and the DHS secretary: ‘If you wanna keep your job, you’ll keep your mouth shut about this.’”

Bongino then said to the former president’s son, “They’re not putting that out there. But if you get those site post logs and those police instructions and there was a post on there and they didn’t show up and no one checked, someone could have got your dad killed.”

Do you stand with Trump?

It’s looking more and more like the Trump assassination attempt was riddled by a series of appalling, inexcusable security failures that resulted in the tragic death of an innocent bystander.

Disturbing theories have exploded on social media in the aftermath of the shooting at Trump’s campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. And, frankly, none of the “excuses” or scapegoating pushed by the Secret Service and the corporate media makes much sense.

Shockingly, no one at the Secret Service has been fired so far, despite the criminal negligence the agency committed by failing to secure the location where the 45th president spoke.

If it isn’t already painfully obvious, the United States under Joe Biden’s disastrous presidency has been an abject failure on every level.


A Note from Our Deputy Managing Editor:

 

I heard a chilling comment the other day: “We don’t even know if an election will be held in 2024.” 

 

That wasn’t said by a conspiracy theorist or a doomsday prophet. No, former U.S. national security advisor Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn said that to the founder of The Western Journal, Floyd Brown.

 

Gen. Flynn’s warning means that the 2024 election is the most important election for every single living American. If we lose this one to the wealthy elites who hate us, hate God, and hate what America stands for, we can only assume that 248 years of American history and the values we hold dear to our hearts may soon vanish.

 

The end game is here, and as Benjamin Franklin said, “We must all hang together, or assuredly we shall all hang separately.”

 

All of this means that without you, it’s over. We have the platform, the journalists, and the experience to fight back hard, but Big Tech is strangling us through advertising blacklists, shadow bans, and algorithms. Did you know that we’ve been blacklisted by 90% of advertisers? Without direct support from you, our readers, we can’t continue the fight.

 

Can we count on your support? It may not seem like much, but a Western Journal Membership can make all the difference in the world because when you support us directly, you cut Big Tech out of the picture. They lose control. 

 

A monthly Western Journal Membership costs less than one coffee and breakfast sandwich each month, and it gets you access to ALL of our content — news, commentary, and premium articles. You’ll experience a radically reduced number of ads, and most importantly you will be vitally supporting the fight for America’s soul in 2024.

 

We are literally counting on you because without our members, The Western Journal would cease to exist. Will you join us in the fight? 

 

Sincerely,

Josh Manning

Deputy Managing Editor

The Western Journal
