A Secret Service counter sniper sent out an email Monday night, copying in the entire Uniformed Division warning that if changes are not immediately made, a further assassination attempt on Donald Trump before the election may be successful.
RealClearPolitics reporter Susan Crabtree revealed the communication from the counter sniper, who stated that he no longer feels proud to be working for the agency, that higher ups need to be fired.
đ¨đ¨đ¨ EXCLUSIVE: A Secret Service counter sniper sent an email Monday night to the entire Uniformed Division (not agents) saying he will not stop speaking out until "5 high-level supervisors (1 down) are either fired or removed from their current positions."

The Secret Service âSHOULD expect another assassination attempt,â the sniper wrote, urging âThis agency NEEDS to change. If not now, WHEN? The NEXT assassination in 30 days?â
âSadly we have fallen short for YEARS,â the counter sniper continued, adding âWe 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.â
âThe team I was once proud to be a part of, is something I have to somehow hide as I move into my next career,â the counter sniper, whose name is redacted, further explained.
âWho wants to hire a USSS CS guy who failed? Thatâs the public perception Iâm not faced with. The USSS CS team is a stain I will never be able to cleanse,â he emphasised.
âThe motto of the USSSâŚCYA. And every supervisor is doing it right now,â he added.
Crabtree says that a source told her that the Secret Service quickly deleted the email, attempting to prevent personnel from seeing it.
The reporter further noted that Senator Marsha Blackburn read from the email while questioning Secret Service acting Director Ronald L. Rowe, who was testifying before a joint meeting of the Judiciary and Homeland Security committees on Tuesday.

Elsewhere during the hearing, other Senators, including Josh Hawley, Ted Cruz and Mike Lee lambasted Rowe over the security failings of the Secret Service and the fact that no one has been fired yet.
The Secret Service director to me today: a lot of people made a lot of mistakes but we wonât tell you who and we wonât fire anybody

Republicans have charged that Rowe is a Democrat stooge.
Guess who worked alongside Acting Secret Service Director Ronald L. Rowe, Jr. during his 2 stints as a partisan Democrat staffer?
â đşđ¸ Mike Davis đşđ¸ (@mrddmia) July 30, 2024
1. Vice President Joe Biden
2. Senior Senate Judiciary Member Joe Biden
Guess when Ronald Rowe became the Deputy Director?
3. President Joe Biden
Meanwhile, FBI Deputy Director Paul Abbate stated that there was never any doubt that Trump was hit by a bullet, despite what Director Christopher Wray said days ago about it potentially being shrapnel.
