Whistleblower: Secret Service told Trump campaign it could not secure potential rally in Wisconsin | 24 Sept 2024 | The Secret Service allegedly told former President Donald Trump's team that it did not have sufficient assets to secure a rally the campaign wanted to hold in Wisconsin, according to a new whistleblower account. A person with direct knowledge of the exchange provided the whistleblower's account to Sen. Josh Hawley's office. In a letter to Secret Service Acting Director Ronald Rowe, the Missouri Republican asked whether such a denial ever occurred. The whistleblower alleged that the Secret Service "effectively forced the Trump campaign to cancel an upcoming event in Wisconsin," Mr. Hawley wrote. He did not share any details on the timing or location of the planned event."Other whistleblowers with knowledge of Secret Service planning protocols allege that failure to provide protection for a major public event is highly unusual and that a sitting president would never be denied resources in this way," Mr. Hawley said.
