The Secret Service is facing heavy scrutiny after another security failure. 

What’s happening inside the agency could be worse than anyone realized. 

And a Secret Service agent revealed one awful secret to Laura Ingraham. 

Questions grow after latest assassination attempt against Trump 

For the second time in two months, former President Donald Trump was nearly assassinated after a security failure by the Secret Service. 

A would-be assassin waited 12 hours at a fence along the perimeter of the Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida for the former President. 

Secret Service agents scouting ahead of the hole where Trump was playing spotted a scoped rifle pointing through the chain-linked fence. 

Agents opened fire on the gunman, which sent him fleeing. 

Trump was 300 to 500 yards from where the would-be assassin had set up. 

Another near miss on the former President’s life after the gunman waited for 12 hours undetected raised more questions about the Secret Service’s ability to protect Trump.

 Political bias is compromising the Secret Service’s mission 

Former Secret Service agent Richard Staropoli said that political bias inside the agency had compromised its ability to fulfill its mission during an appearance on Fox News’ The Ingraham Angle. 

“[Trump] describes it as the most dangerous business, a very dangerous business – it shouldn’t be,” Staropoli said. 

Trump called campaigning a “dangerous business” during a town hall event in Michigan. 

“This is why the Secret Service exists, yet somewhere along the line, they’ve allowed their own personal political feelings to permeate the senior most levels of the Secret Service,” Staropoli told Fox News’ Laura Ingraham. “And that has made its way down to the level of the field agents, the Secret Service is broken. They are not doing their job.”

Staropoli spent more than 20 years in the Secret Service working security details for former Presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Bush. 

He said what is happening in the agency now is truly disturbing after two major security failures. 

The former Secret Service agent said that Trump’s protective detail should have been able to handle security for his golf course. 

“The Secret Service with a $4 billion budget and 7,000 employees can’t predict and can’t pre-post an event that’s going to happen on a golf course,” Staropoli explained. “That the president not only owns but has been golfing on every Sunday for the last 20 years.”

Staropoli said the Secret Service’s failures during the investigation into the assassination attempt against Trump at a July 13 campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, would fuel conspiracy theories for decades. 

“Let’s add in the fact that you disposed of the body way too quickly, you contaminated that crime scene and quite simply has any Secret Service agent even interviewed the family about what’s going on here,” Staropoli stated. 

“They have left totally unresolved questions and have fed into conspiracy theories that we will be talking about 50 and 60 years from now, this could have all been avoided if the acting director simply would have stepped in front of the cameras right from the outset,” he added. 

The pressure is growing to clean house at the Secret Service after another alarming security failure.
