Here’s Why The Secret Service Wasn’t Protecting The Golf Course Perimeter


Why does the Secret Service keep failing?

First they couldn’t possibly be bothered to cover that roof in Butler, PA.

Now they can’t secure the perimeter of the golf course where President Trump is playing golf.

Really?

What possibly excuse will they offer this time?

Make sure you’re sitting down for this….

“Because he’s not a sitting President”….take a look:

🚨🇺🇸 PALM BEACH SHERIFF: THIS IS WHAT WE KNOW ABOUT THE INVESTIGATION

“Called in by the Secret Service because we’re in constant contact with them. We were notified, and our units immediately sealed off the area.

Fortunately, we were able to locate a witness who told us, ‘Hey, I saw the guy running out of the bushes.

He jumped into a black Nissan, and I took a picture of the vehicle and the tag.’ Which was very helpful.

With that information, our real-time crime center sent out an alert to the license plate readers, and we were able to get a hit on the vehicle on I-95 as it was heading up to Martin County.

We contacted the Martin County Sheriff’s Office, alerted them, and they spotted the vehicle, pulled it over, and detained the suspect.

Afterward, we flew the witness to the location, and he identified the suspect as the person he saw running out of the bushes and jumping into the car.

In the bushes where the suspect was hiding, we found an AK-47-style rifle with a scope, two backpacks hanging on the fence that contained ceramic tiles, and a GoPro, which the suspect intended to use for taking pictures.

Those items are currently being processed. The Secret Service agent on the course did a fantastic job.

They have an agent who stays one hole ahead of where the protectee was.

He was able to spot the rifle barrel sticking out of the fence and immediately engaged the suspect, at which point the individual fled.

So, that’s what we know about the investigation.”
