Senior Secret Service Agent Says She Wouldn’t Protect President Trump


Kerry O’Grady is not simply a member of the Secret Service but in fact a Special Agent in charge of the agency’s Denver district, a position that comes with coordinating the safety of the president as well as candidates for that office when they travel through the area. Despite the fact that she is specifically tasked with ensuring the safety of the president, O’Grady has made it clear in a number of Facebook posts that she would not “take a bullet” for Donald Trump:

“Despite her senior security role, she has made her disdain for Trump and his incoming administration clear to her Facebook followers, who included current and former Secret Service agents and other people who were employees at the time of the posts. O’Grady’s posts triggered at least one complaint to the office that oversees investigations into Secret Service misbehavior, two knowledgeable sources told the Washington Examiner.

In one Facebook post O’Grady wrote at 11:07 p.m. on a Sunday in October, she endorsed Hillary Clinton and said she would endure “jail time” rather than “taking a bullet” for what she regarded as a “disaster” for America.

The post didn’t mention Trump by name but clearly referred to him.

In the same post, she mentioned the Hatch Act, which bars executive branch staff, except the president, vice president and some other senior executive officials, from engaging in certain political activities.”
