In a misguided attempt to prioritize diversity over competence, former Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle's woke initiatives have potentially compromised the agency's core mission. Her focus on recruiting at Pride events, hosting pronoun seminars, and lowering physical standards for female agents have raised concerns about the agency's effectiveness. This has endangered those the Secret Service is meant to protect.
The criticism of female Secret Service agents in recent weeks has been both unfounded and sexist. Women have been protecting presidents since 1861, with many excelling in their roles. They have demonstrated exceptional physical prowess and skill, often outperforming males. From protecting Abraham Lincoln to saving Ronald Reagan's life, their contributions to presidential security have been stellar. These recent attacks disregard all that.
There is a 28% chance the next assassination of a sitting US President will occur after Jan. 1, 2100, according to the Metaculus prediction community.
