Besides being government agencies, what do the FBI, Secret Service, US Marshals, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives, and the Bureau of Justice Assistance all have in common? They have decided that qualifications to work for one of those agencies no longer matters, as long as you check off the right box on the diversity scale. All have committed to a program called “30X30.”
On Saturday, July 13 in a small town in Pennsylvania, former (and future) President Donald Trump came within what has been described as a centimeter from losing his life to an assassin’s bullet. Only a well-timed turn of the head to the right which no doubt involved some divine intervention prevented our 45th president from being gunned down. It was that close.
In the aftermath of the assassination attempt, many people, including those in law enforcement, began to question a lot of things, not the least of which was the deployment of somewhat petite women as part of President Trump’s Secret Service detail.
In fact, one of them was made famous in videos of the mayhem when she seemed to have great difficulty performing the “complicated” task of holstering her firearm. After several unsuccessful attempts to do so, she held her firearm in her hand in a way that no law enforcement officer is trained to do so.
