A Trump rally in Wisconsin was canceled due to the Secret Service’s inability to provide adequate security, according to a whistleblower’s account shared by Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO). The allegation raises serious concerns about the level of protection being provided to President Donald Trump in the wake of recent assassination attempts.
The whistleblower claimed that the Secret Service informed Trump’s team that they “did not have sufficient assets” to secure the rally, which was subsequently called off. This account contradicts statements made by Secret Service officials, who assured the public that Trump is receiving the same level of protection as President Joe Biden.
The cancellation follows multiple assassination attempts against Trump, most notably one in West Palm Beach, Florida, where a man reportedly waited for hours with the intent to kill the former president. This has led to heightened concerns about Trump’s safety at public events, especially as the media and left-wing commentators continue to downplay these threats.
Hawley, who has raised concerns over Trump’s security in the past, said the whistleblower’s report is deeply troubling. Another recent whistleblower claimed that the Secret Service failed to secure known vulnerabilities at one of Trump’s golf courses, which allowed a would-be assassin to remain on-site undetected for an extended period.
Meanwhile, Trump continues to face vitriolic attacks from the Left, with some calling him an existential threat to the country. Despite these threats, the Department of Justice recently publicized a manifesto from one of Trump’s would-be attackers, who offered a $150,000 bounty for anyone willing to “complete the job.”
The revelation that Trump’s rally was canceled due to a lack of security resources is likely to increase scrutiny on the Secret Service and raise questions about Trump’s ability to hold large public events moving forward.
