Secret services must “be correct,” said a former agent

The secret services must go to “correct race” after reporting that a secret service agent tried to pass his wife on a secret freight plane accompanying President Donald Trump during his trip to Scotland, according to a former agent.

Tim Miller, who was a secret service agent during the administrations of the presidents George Hw Bush and Bill Clinton, said that the alleged incident was unusual and that the agency had to “intensify” to fight against the growing threats against Trump.

“The threats to the president are serious and growing,” Miller said in an email on Thursday at Fox News Digital. “This agency must intensify these threats. … Imagine a world where our elected leaders are not safe to direct the critical problems with which our world is confronted?

“The mission given to them requires the best available people who have the highest level of commitment, experience, professionalism and competence.”

While Miller predicted that such a conduct would have previously led to the agent’s suspension or dismissal, Miller said that he was unlikely since the secret services did not dismiss the people in service during the assassination attempt against Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania, in July 2024.

However, the agency announced that it has suspended six of its agents because of their response to the attempt.

Likewise, Miller said he was planning that an investigation into Scotland incident would be meticulously managed.

“I am convinced that they will investigate this question completely,” said Miller. “To this end, the secret services must be correct and keep the agents responsible for these types of judgment errors. The current threats are too high. It is time for high levels of responsibility and a return to the mission. The life of our elected leaders depends! It is really a” safe “mission!”

Despite this, Miller said that the agency had done the right thing in identifying the threat and solving the problem.

“The main thing is that there is more in this story and, with the exception of the extremely bad judgment of an agent, the secret services have done a good job by identifying and correcting this problem,” said Miller.

Trump told journalists on Tuesday that he had just heard about the alleged incident, describing him as a “strange agreement”. He also told journalists that the agency manages the issue.

“I don’t know, it’s strange. I just heard that two minutes ago. I think Sean takes care of it. … Is this a serious story?” Trump told Air Force journalists on Tuesday, seeming to refer to Sean Curran, director of secret services.

The White House confirmed on Wednesday at Fox News Digital that Trump had been informed of the issue and that an investigation was underway.

“The American secret services are carrying out a staff survey after an employee tried to invite his spouse, a member of the United States Air Force, aboard a mission support flight,” a spokesman for Fox News Digital on Tuesday.

“The plane, operated by the US Air Force, was used by the secret services to transport staff and equipment,” added the spokesperson. “Before departure abroad, the employee was informed by the supervisors that this action was prohibited, and the spouse was not prevented later from taking the theft. No protege of the secret services was on board, and there was no impact on our protection operations abroad.”
