Radio talk show host and podcaster Dan Bongino, a former Secret Service agent, predicted another potential “incident” involving the agency, strongly suggesting that its current state is worse than before the assassination attempt against former President Donald Trump on July 13 in Butler, Pa.

After Congress’s inquiries into the assassination attempt, then-Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle resigned, and Ronald L. Rowe Jr. was appointed as interim director. But Bongino has repeatedly said on his show that Rowe is no better and that the upper echelons of the agency are either corrupt or incompetent.

Rep. Eli Crane, R-Ariz., asked Bongino during a Heritage Foundation forum earlier this month, “Is the Secret Service in a better spot today with Director Rowe in charge?”

“No, it’s worse,” Bongino responded, going on to predict that “something else” will happen, although he added, “I pray to my Lord and savior Jesus Christ that I’m wrong.” But, he noted further: “[If] you think this is the last incident, you’re out of your mind.”

Bongino also testified that Rowe represents more of “the same people” who were in charge on July 13.

“Kim Cheatle, the director, wasn’t even fired. She was allowed to resign,” Bongino pointed out. “She’ll go get some cushy job somewhere, and her deputy” got promoted.

The former agent and New York City police officer then said whistleblowers within the Secret Service told him that Rowe “was concerned about the tie color of the agents on the detail because it seemed to imply they supported President Trump. This is the kind of stuff the Secret Service was actually wasting their time with.”

“If you can explain it, then good luck because that’s not the agency I worked for,” Bongino added, according to the Daily Signal.

Bongino addressed the July 13 assassination attempt on Trump at a forum, where he responded to questions from Republican members of Congress: Andy Biggs and Eli Crane of Arizona, Matt Gaetz and Cory Mills of Florida, and Chip Roy of Texas. The forum also featured Erik Prince, a former Navy SEAL and founder of Blackwater, and Ben Shaffer, a Washington regional SWAT operator who helped with security on July 13.

At the forum, held near the U.S. Capitol, the congressmen presented video clips from the July 13 event, revealing that members of the crowd had tried to alert police about Thomas Crooks, the 20-year-old who later fired at Trump, well before the shooting occurred.

Meanwhile, another whistleblower has come forward with shocking new details regarding the July assassination attempt.

Missouri Republican Sen. Josh Hawley spoke to Fox News host Jesse Watters and revealed what he has been told this week.

“What I’m learning now is that the lead advance agent, that day in Pennsylvania, this is the agent that was in charge of Trump’s entire trip in Pennsylvania, that this agent actually failed one or more of her training exams when she first joined the Secret Service,” the senator said.

“The pattern that is emerging here from whistleblowers who come forward to me now over and over again is that the Trump rally was undermanned, it was understaffed, They did not have people who had experience on it. And now this advance agent, I’m told, may have failed one or more training exams and was known not to be a top-quality agent. This is absurd. The fact that the director will not level with the American people about what’s going on here is just totally unacceptable and unbelievable,” he said.

“Director Cheatle, we know, had a priority to make 30% of the Secret Service women. So this woman fails maybe once, maybe twice, maybe more, and it doesn’t matter. Cheatle still makes her in charge of the protective site detail for Butler, knowing that there was an Iranian threat,” he said.

That created more questions for the senator who said it was inexplicable that this particular woman was in charge of the former president’s protection on that day, Hawley noted.

“This is what’s so hard to understand. If this individual had failed one or more of her training exams, if she was known not to be really one of the Secret Service’s top agents, she’s in the Pittsburgh office. Why was she put in charge of the entire trip?” he asked.
