Dozens Of Secret Service Agents Forced To Testify In Trump Probe

New reports have revealed that special prosecutor Jack Smith has interviewed several dozen Secret Service agents as part of his probe into the stolen classified documents. These individuals are with Trump at all times, and if there was anything happening regarding the classified documents they would certainly have been aware of what was going on. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains how significant this is.

An interesting new development has happened this week in the ongoing documents investigation from Special prosecutor Jack Smith. It was revealed on Wednesday that over the last few months, actually not even recently, but you know, for many, many months now, Jack Smith has spoken to roughly two dozen of the Secret Service agents assigned to protect Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago. So we have these men, these men and women who are around Donald Trump a hundred percent of the time, who would have seen every single thing that Trump was doing. They would've been right outside the room. If there were private conversations happening, if there were classified documents hanging around that office, they would have seen them. And roughly two dozen of them have now testified in front of that grand jury. And here's what's interesting about that. These Secret Service agents have been reminded according to reports that your number one job as a Secret Service agent is to be a law enforcement officer.

Job number two is protect the president. So your first job basically is to be a detective, is to be a cop, because that is what these people are. They do have the authority to arrest people, they have the authority to investigate. You know, they can go out there and do the same thing that a regular detective would do. That is what these folks are. Secondary is the protection of the President of the United States or whoever else it is that they're assigned to protect. And they're being reminded of that as they go in to testify. I'm sure they're also being reminded of the fact that because this is under oath, if you lie to us, not only are you gonna lose your job, that basically we are the government. We, we pay your salary, we hire you. You know, we can fire you like that if we want to.

So not only would you lose your job, but you're also gonna be hit with perjury charges and probably spend a little time in jail, which is probably gonna make it very hard for you to get another job in law enforcement anywhere. So I have no doubt, even as we know, a lot of the secret services, very maga, very pro-Trump, I have no doubt that the threat of losing your job and facing criminal charges has probably resulted in some of these agents who may not have wanted to, but decided eventually to tell the truth. And of course, you probably had some non MAGA folks there. Maybe they don't like the detail at Mar-a-Lago who said, oh hell yeah, I'll tell you everything you want to know. I'll give you other names of other people that you need to talk to as well. And of course, we do not know exactly what these Secret service agents have told the grand jury. We don't know what they've personally seen. Maybe they saw nothing. That seems a little farfetched, but you know, all possibilities are on the table. But we will know soon,

Whenever these indictments come down and we get, you know, whatever it is, of a final report from Jack Smith, which things seem to be moving at a breakneck speed right now. So I imagine we're probably gonna get a lot of answers to a lot of our questions within this month.
