US Secret Service Reform Urgently Needed

The protection of top government officials and candidates is in crisis as the Presidential Election of 2024 comes upon us in 46 days.

The two threats against Donald Trump are a clear indication that the US Secret Service is in need of urgent reform, in funding, personnel, and technology.

This is a very scary and troubling time, as there are so many threats daily against both Presidential and Vice Presidential candidates of both political parties, as well as against President Joe Biden and his family members.

There are crazy and radicalized individuals who wish to be “famous”, actually infamous, by trying to harm government leaders.

The political atmosphere is one of stress and tension, and at an all time high, with the nation so divided, with a lot of the crisis caused, sadly, by Donald Trump and his constant divisive rhetoric, a situation that has existed for the past nine years.

Secret Service Acting Director Ronald Rowe has just held a press conference in an attempt to calm public fears, and make clear of the mission of the Secret Service to provide total protection to those it is responsible to protect.

New agents are desperately needed, and such agents require a minimum of four years before they are ready to take on the responsibility of protecting the top leaders of the nation, and several hundred new agents are scheduled to be hired and trained during the next year.
