This video shows the full footage of the #assault on #SenAlexPadilla. Shocking and unconscionable. I hope he sues. #republican #senators should be asked relentlessly their reaction to this. How they would have responded if President Biden’s #SecretService had done this to a Republican Senator.

The White House said in a stmnt that it was "aware of the cyber security incident at #Smarsh" but didn't offer comment on its use of the platform. #State didn't respond. The #SecretService said #TeleMessage products had been used "by a small subset of Secret Service employees" & that it was reviewing the situation. #FEMA said in an email that it had "no evidence" that its info had been compromised. It didn't respond when sent copies of internal FEMA msgs.

Reuters identified >60 unique govt users of the messaging platform #TeleMessage in a cache of #leaked #data provided by Distributed Denial of Secrets, a US nonprofit whose mission is to archive #hacked & leaked documents in the public interest. The trove included material from disaster responders, #customs ofcls, several US diplomatic staffers, at least 1 #WhiteHouse staffer & members of the #SecretService.

BTWs this was the post. So threatening! #Trump is a weakling.

#SecretService spokesman Anthony Guglielmi, in a statement, said, “The Secret Service vigorously investigates anything that can be taken as a potential threat against our protectees.”

“We are aware of the social media posts by the former FBI Director [#JamesComey] & we take rhetoric like this very seriously,” Guglielmi said.

“He knew exactly what that meant,” #Trump said in an interview w/ FauxNews, a day after the #DHS & the #SecretService opened an investigation into Comey’s Instagram post.

“A child knows what that meant. If you’re the FBI director & you don’t know ... that meant ‘assassination,’” Trump said.

[BS I didn’t learn what 86 meant until I started waiting tables in HS]

#ICE & the #SecretService conducted a large-scale operation in an upscale Irvine, CA neighborhood Wed to apprehend an individual accused of distributing fliers containing the personal info of Homeland Security Investigations (#HSI) agents.

The operation, described…as a “military-style brigade,” involved a cavalcade of armored vehicles, w/ICE providing #FoxNews drone footage of the procession through Pasadena to serve a criminal search warrant.

Migrant Insider · ICE Deploys Armored Convoy to Arrest Pasadena Flier DistributorBy Ale Franqueza

#SecretService sucks so bad at their jobs, a known illegal alien criminal was able to enter a busy #Darden operated burger joint and steal #HomelandSecurity head Kristy Noem's garish #Gucci label purse, not only in front of multiple members of her own family, but also evade notice in front of her highly trained security detail in DC.

You won't believe what I heard in the latest shared #ClassifiedSignalChat

1. #Trump has ordered that planning for HIS funeral pageantry must begin immediately.

2. Particular generosity be shown to ensure that his is the most magnificent of all funerals hitherto, and that it clearly upstages that of #PopeFrancis'.

3. #UnitedStates #SecretService must adopt a new uniform that matches the clownish colors of #Vatican security personnel.

#DanBongino, podcaster, will be #FBI deputy director, #Trump said.

#Bongino, 50, who has worked for the #NYPD & the #SecretService, is a staunch Trump ally who has pushed lies about the 2020 election & other stories.

His appointment, which does NOT require Senate confirmation, means neither of the top two people running the agency has FBI experience.

Elon Musk’s private security detail gets deputized by #USMarshals Service
edition.cnn.com/2025/02/20/pol

" #Musk, the #tech ... [South African immigrant] & ally of #DonaldTrump, is not eligible to have a US #SecretService detail – meaning members of his personal security detail were limited in what they could do in #WashingtonDC.
Now that members have been deputized, they... could be authorized to carry #weapons on federal grounds."

The next day, #Hurricane visited the White House for the final time. Hurricane’s former #SecretService colleagues presented him with a plaque with his name on it & an American flag. Mirarchi declined to say whether Hurricane was euthanized, but after the White House visit, Mirarchi said he & about a dozen of his former colleagues gathered around Hurricane as he died.

Continued thread

Mirarchi said he struggled to work without #Hurricane, so he retired in 2017 after working w/the #SecretService for more than a decade. Mirarchi said he found another purpose: He wanted other retired K-9s to receive free veterinary care, so he founded his nonprofit, K9 Hurricane’s Heroes. He & Hurricane traveled the world for #charity events, where Hurricane played w/children. Mirarchi partnered w/Kinetic Dog Food to make a bacon-flavored treat called Hurricane Bites.

Continued thread

The suspect, 23-year-old Dominic Adesanya, was taken to a hospital with injuries from a dog bite. #Hurricane’s body was covered in bruises, bumps & blood, Mirarchi said, & he was taken to a veterinarian. Mirarchi said he worried Hurricane would die of his injuries.

The next day, the #SecretService posted photos of Hurricane & Jordan on social media & said a veterinarian cleared them to work. But Hurricane was never as nimble again, Mirarchi said.

Continued thread

On Oct 22, 2014, #Hurricane was 6 yrs old when he spotted a man jumping the White House fence. The intruder fought off another #SecretService canine, Jordan, when he was about halfway across the North Lawn. But then Hurricane, who weighed more than 60 pounds, charged in for a brawl that lasted a few seconds before Hurricane knocked the man to the ground.

Continued thread

#Hurricane, who had a black coat & brown eyes, joined the #SecretService’s K-9 unit in November 2012 & was paired with Mirarchi. Hurricane underwent more than 4 months of training at the Rowley Training Center in Laurel, MD, learning to bite hard, jump high & react quickly to security threats. When Hurricane was promoted to guarding the White House, he jumped & spun in excitement from the back seat each time Mirarchi drove onto the property.
