Here's What We've Learned About Those Multiple Suspended Secret Service Agents
Share this @internewscast.com

Susan Crabtree, a National Political Correspondent for RealClearPolitics, mentioned on X that “Prominent supervisors who approved the Butler security plan, along with two others involved in the final assessments prior to the July 13, 2024, rally, not only avoided any disciplinary actions but instead were significantly promoted, according to multiple sources within the Secret Service community who spoke with RealClearPolitics @RCPolitics.”

“Nick Menster, one of those who took part in the final assessments, has been appointed as the second in command for the protective detail of Lara and Eric Trump this year,” Crabtree detailed. “The other supervisor, Nick Olszewski, interestingly now leads as the chief (special agent in charge) of the Inspection Division, tasked with upholding the accountability and integrity of the agency’s staff and its operations.”

Rank-and-file agents are incensed over the decision not to hold the supervisors accountable, further sinking the low morale and exacerbating retention problems throughout the agency. Secret Service Director Sean Curran was in charge of the Donald Trump detail at the time of the rally, and Menster served under his command.

Another big point – multiple Secret Service sources tell me that the original Secret Service disciplinary recommendations varied but maxed out at 52 days without pay. However, lawyers for the agents were able to scale that discipline down to 10 to 42 days without pay. This is a relatively light punishment for such egregious failures, but the fact that some of these agents didn’t receive the supervisory oversight that an outdoor rally of this magnitude required is likely a mitigating factor. If so, that begs the question of why key supervisors appear to have skated. 

The Real Clear Politics correspondent’s post included a quote from Larry Berger, an attorney for several of the suspended agents who previously served as general counsel for the Federal Law Enforcement Officers Association.

“We avoided more severe sanctions, and now we’re assessing the next steps with respect to these discussions,” Berger, who now has his own firm, Berger and Deplas, said.

Crabtree then named three of the six who she said were “taking the fall” for America’s next president, almost assassinated. It included three females: Myotsoty Perez, Meredith Bank, and Dana Dubrey.

The other three include Tim Burke, Brian Pardini, and John Marciniak. She provides more details about each of them in her lengthy post. 

As RedState reported on Wednesday, the six agents were suspended for their conduct in connection with the assassination attempt against President Trump during his campaign rally in Butler which left one person, firefighter Corey Comperatore, dead and Trump with a bloody ear wound after he turned his head moments before the shot would’ve hit him.

Matt Quinn, Secret Service deputy director, spoke to CBS News and confirmed the suspensions.

“We aren’t going to fire our way out of this,” he added. “We’re going to focus on the root cause and fix the deficiencies that put us in that situation.”
