Hawley Demands Suspension of 'Inexperienced' Lead Site Agent for Butler Rally in Light of Whistleblower Allegations

Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) demanded that the Secret Service’s "inexperienced" lead site agent at former President Donald Trump

...The Hero of Butler, Pennsylvania...
’s rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, on July 13 be suspended.

In a letter addressed to Acting Secret Service Director Ronald Rowe on Monday, Hawley wrote that several whistleblowers had told his office that the "lead site agent" at Trump’s rally in Butler had lacked "competence and experience in the role" and "made decisions that likely compromised the overall security" that day.

Hawley added that the allegations from the whistleblowers were "especially alarming" because Rowe had previously stated that the agent was "still operational" in the field.

"New whistleblower allegations to my office directly question decisions made by Secret Service’s lead site agent principally responsible for securing the July 13 rally in Butler, Pennsylvania," Hawley said in his letter. "These allegations suggest that the lead site agent failed to implement appropriate security protocols."

"This is especially alarming because during your testimony on July 30, you stated that this agent was ’still operational...They’re still doing protective visits,'" Hawley added.

#5 How about suspending the boss that put an inexperienced agent in charge? To me it’s a chain of command failure. USSS is a quasi-military organization, in the military you take your orders and do your best.
