Biden orders Secret Service protection for RFK Jr. after Trump rally shooting | Morning in America

Former Secret Service agent Kenneth Valentine says he's proud of the Secret Service agents who jumped into action to evacuate former President Donald Trump from a rally stage in Pennsylvania where a gunman tried to assassinate Trump. The shooting led President Joe Biden to provide Secret Service protection for presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

Especially since RFK'S Dad is the reason Presidential candidates get SS protection!

[@jimschofield8734]

No mention of how no prior candidate who requested SS protection early had been granted it immediately; while RFK Jr asked repeatedly for most of the past year, and was constantly denied protection. Despite an armed assailant turning up to one rally. Etc.

[@Masopoli]

Not allowing protection for rival candidates especially RFK Jr. after repeated requests shows how corrupt the system is , in this case the democratic party.

President Biden is giving RFK jr protection.

[@yellyman5483]

@@clintbronson5 I saw an interview with one of President Bidens advisors, and he was saying that Biden was really angry at what happened to Trump, and that he feels it is shocking that a sniper was allowed on top of a rooftop. This can happen to him too. He is worried about his own personal safety, and for his family. Therefore it was a no brainer for him to allow RFK Jr Secret Service protection, and to force the Secret Service to make serious changes in how they protect their VIPs. I don`t think we will ever see a single rooftop being unprotected in the future.

[@serenevoice4765]

About damned time. Pathetic that it took this. Biden should be ashamed!

[@KARW37]

I am not sure if he wants lesser quality protection than he already had.

[@yellyman5483]

Good point. I don`t trust the Secret Service after what happened on saturday.

[@bobbybeeman7280]

@@yellyman5483 I.ve never trusted them ever.

[@serenevoice4765]

It's not an either or situation.

[@TerMitesMatter]

RFK JR would be wise to have his own security team, so is Trump.

[@bobbybeeman7280]

Thats what I been saying to myself for quite a while. Even then????

[@TC-uk2sg]

The law requires secret service protection for candidates at a minimum of 120 regardless of political party, not just 2 of them! Correct your misleading statement.

[@DoncampbellUSMC1041]

State Police True To The Name KEYSTONE COPS 😂

[@Gubers]

Oh, Thank God! Now the Secret Service can do nothing when a 20 year old weirdo climbs onto a roof 150 yards away and spends 2 minutes to set up an assassination on him. Whew! At least the shooter will only get like 5 or 6 attempts before RFK Jr is protected by some 5ft tall women.
