Secret Service Agent Abandoned Post During Trump Rally To Breastfeed
[Federalist] A female Secret Service agent assigned to protect former President Donald Trump at a recent rally left her post to breastfeed her child without proper approval, according to a new report.

Citing sources within the agency, RealClearPolitics (RCP) reporter Susan Crabtree revealed Thursday that an agent tasked with defending Trump at the former president’s Wednesday rally in Asheville, North Carolina, "abandoned her post to breastfeed with no permission/warning to the event site agent."

According to Crabtree, the site agent responsible for overseeing security for the rally was conducting a "final sweep of the walking route" five minutes before Trump’s motorcade arrived and found the female agent "breast-feeding her child in a room that is supposed to be set aside for important Secret Service official work, i.e. a potential emergency related to the president." Two members of the female agent’s family were also purportedly found in the room.

"A working agent on duty cannot bring a child to a protective assignment," the report reads.

The sources who spoke with Crabtree reportedly claimed the agent and her family members "bypassed the Uniformed Division checkpoint" and were led into the room by an event staffer who was not properly cleared by the Secret Service to be in that location. The agent in question came from the agency’s Atlanta field office, according to Crabtree.

Secret Service spokesman Anthony Guglielmi seemingly confirmed the incident did, in fact, occur. In a statement to RCP, Guglielmi claimed the agent’s reported abandonment of her post made "no impact to the North Carolina event" but added that "the specifics of [the] incident are being examined."

#1 Why did she bring her baby to such a dangerous job?

Is the baby going to take a bullet for Trump?

#2 
I guess she never heard of Breast Pumping, and storing milk?

I read the part “All employees of the U.S. Secret Service are held to the highest standards,” the spokesman said. “Given this is a personnel matter, we are not in a position to comment further.”

No! It is NOT a personal matter, it is an Administrative / Personnel matter regarding the strict and detailed assigned duties and processes to protect the rightful President of the USA.

So, has she been terminated or suspended?

#4 Reassign her to Biden's detail. It's not like he's going to be target for anyone now after the coup.

#10 I'm guessing she got her parents into the rally to see her on the job, they brought the baby, she badged them inside the security perimeter, and the kid was hungry and making a disturbance being in a place where they didn't belong, so she abandoned her post to feed the kid, end the noise and get caught off=post when Trump arrived. Given her actions and poor choices, she does not belong in the USSS.

#11 FYI:. Reports are that Butler, Pennsylvania SWAT team member first shot at the Trump sniper striking his rifle possibly disabling it which also resulted in fragments of the rifle hitting the shooter in the face and shoulder. The SWAT team member then charged toward the sniper who had ducked down. The sniper raised his head back up and was then shot in the face by a Secret Service sniper.

Also, what I found interesting from Trump's press conference yesterday was his comment that he would be relying on local law enforcement agencies in the deportation of criminal illegal aliens rather than federal law enforcement. Seems he has no faith in the DOJ or Home Land Security.
