Acting Secret Service Director Bombshell
The Missouri Republican went on to note that the whistleblower had asserted that the assassination attempt would have been quickly foiled if these agents were on site.
Hawley then revealed that the whistleblower directly accused Rowe of taking this action that led to Secret Service failures that day — which the acting Secret Service director curiously neglected to mention during his recent testimony before the Senate.
Hawley’s letter also included allegations that many threat assessment team agents had been warning Secret Service leadership for some time about potential dangers.
He concluded the letter by demanding that the acting Secret Service director hand over materials related to his “personal involvement in revising, updating, or otherwise changing Secret Service policies and personnel related to CSD,” as well as other records — giving him a deadline of August 8.
This is not the first Secret Service whistleblower related to the assassination attempt, as an email from a Secret Service counter-sniper recently went viral calling out the agency’s leadership for repeatedly failing to enact reforms demanded by on-the-ground agents who have been expressing concerns about potential assassination attempts for years.
“Sadly we have fallen short for YEARS. We just look good doing it. I have conveyed these thoughts to not only supervisors (to include the current Captain of CS, but those responsible for training us (SOTS/CS). Only to be brushed off as those with less experience somehow knew more than me,” the email read, in part.
