Hidden Cam Reveals Secret Service Breach:
JD Vance Detail Compromised

Original Article

Since its founding, presidents, vice presidents, and other senior government officials have relied on the United States Secret Service (USSS) to provide security for them and, if needed, their families. The USSS has, for the most part, done their best, regardless of the personal opinions of agents. That's how an organization like this should - must - work. So when an agent betrays that trust, it's all the more hateful. But that is precisely what James O'Keefe seems to have uncovered, in the form of a USSS agent on the detail of Vice President JD Vance,

Tomas Escotto, loyal to Biden and the Donks but not to Vice President Vance, appears to be trying to get Vance assassinated. What the hell is this traitor doing on any Secret Service detail? Arrest, try, convict, imprison. What is the matter with the SS? Are they no good?

Treason! Trying to open the door for JD to get the Charlie Kirk treatment deserves a military tribunal and public hanging.

Yesterday I read he had been an American citizen for only two years. How does one come to this country and within two years have a job protecting the #2 person in the whole government? Who does he know? He should at the least be in prison for a long time and at the worst, hang.

Whether it was intentional or the stupid move of attempting to impress a woman, this guy can not be trusted in that position. Transfer him to the Capitol Police where incompetence is accepted and celebrated.

Like the FBI, the USSS is riding on a hyped reputation (not supported by facts) and is seriously in need of a complete overhaul.

Ford workers cheered President Donald Trump during his visit to an F-150 plant in Dearborn, Michigan, on Tuesday. Workers erupted in applause as Trump made his way through the factory. The president heard from some workers and took selfies with several of them. Trump inspected assembly operations during the tour, including a “stop at a station which is called the ‘body decker,’ where the truck gets put together” and another “where a team installs hose connections,” per the White House press pool, citing Ford spokespeople.

The Chinese Foreign Ministry on Monday elbowed its way into the debate over President Donald Trump’s effort to acquire Greenland, slamming the U.S. for “using other countries as an excuse for pursuing its own selfish interests.” Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Mao Ning was responding to a reporter who quoted Trump saying that if America does not acquire Greenland, “Russia or China will.” The Arctic bears on the common interests of the international community. China’s activities in the Arctic are aimed at promoting the peace, stability, and sustainable development of the region. They are in line with international law,” Mao responded.

U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent was told over the weekend that a new Nick Shirley video being released soon - maybe even as early as Monday — is "ten times worse" than the "Quality Learing Center" daycare scam. In Shirley's previous video, he and his source, David Hoch, who has been investigating this billion-dollar-plus scam for years, discovered multiple daycare centers in one building without children in them for years. And this is where Hoch says is the heart of the ongoing continuing criminal enterprise. Hoch says the new video will show that most of these companies are Somali-owned, and his and Shirley's visit to these companies found zero—

President Donald Trump channeled the late, great former First Lady Nancy Reagan in his not-so-subtle message that the gravy train is over for Democrats leading sanctuary states and cities, ending federal funding for illegal immigration. Speaking in Michigan on Tuesday, President Trump addressed members of the Detroit Economic Club about issues facing his administration, including the recent massive child care welfare fraud scandal uncovered in Minnesota under Democrat Governor Tim Walz’s leadership, and his next move to end federal payments to places like California, where Governor Gavin Newsom put illegal aliens' lives ahead of American citizens.

President Trump’s impromptu remarks from inside the Ford F150 plant will probably not make headline news because, well, quite frankly, what President Trump says below is something the financial media just don’t want to discuss. This is really an important point. In the era where information is skewed based on the interests of the organization sharing the information, government or private sector media, it is extremely valuable to just listen to what President Trump says directly. In comments such as this brief segment below, you can see exactly where he is going with manufacturing and trade policy.

The death toll from nationwide protests in Iran surpassed 2,000 people on Tuesday, activists said, as Iranians made phone calls abroad for the first time in days after authorities severed communications during a crackdown on demonstrators. The number of dead climbed to at least 2,003, as reported by the U.S.-based Human Rights Activists News Agency. That figure dwarfs the death toll from any other round of protest or unrest in Iran in decades and recalls the chaos surrounding the country’s 1979 Islamic Revolution. Iranian state television offered the first official acknowledgment of the high death toll, quoting an official saying the country had “a lot of martyrs”

Rarely can more than two birds be killed with one stone in foreign policy. That is, unless leadership can grasp multi-causality or multi-causal synchronicity and carry out bold and adept policy executions with finesse in different theaters. A unique part of President Donald Trump’s success in leadership is precisely this ability.The surprise stealth operation in Venezuela in the dark of early morning January 3, 2026, resulted in the flawless capture of President Nicolás Maduro – one of the worst international criminals and enemies of the United States. What many underappreciate is that the Venezuela shaped by Maduro is the key to achieving peace in the Western hemisphere and beyond.

I don’t think anyone would confuse Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson with a sharp legal mind. She often comes across as the poster child for what’s wrong with DEI hires. On Tuesday, the Supreme Court heard oral arguments in Little v. Hecox, a case that will likely decide whether laws barring biological males from competing on girls’ sports teams are constitutional. Given that Jackson famously admitted during her confirmation hearings that she didn’t know what a woman was — because, as she put it, she’s “not a biologist” — you knew she was bound to be a real spectacle.

President Donald Trump said last week that he was “immediately taking steps to ban large institutional investors from buying more single-family homes” and “will be calling on Congress to codify” the proposal. His advisers need to show him why that’s a bad idea. Trump promised to “discuss this topic, including further housing and affordability proposals, and more, at my speech in Davos in two weeks.” So there is time to present clear arguments that should convince him to quietly drop the plan. If we had an audience with the president, we’d first remind him that the government in a free country has no authority to determine who

The only protests or marches I’ve ever attended were one against war a friend wanted to go to and he didn’t want to drive to DC alone (plus, I’d never been to DC at that point), one I got extra credit for in college involving newspaper strike, and one that was an annual even to “protest” pot laws because we went to meet chicks and get stoned in a crowd – mostly the novelty of it (which is now common).

Alpha News has reported extensively on Diop and questionable contracts with Frontier Transportation Services, hired by MPS to transport Homeless and Highly Mobile (HHM) students in passenger vans. Additionally, another transportation company under contract with the district was filmed dropping children off at the now-closed Quality "Learing" [sic.] Center -- a moment many believe was staged to make the site appear active. MEISA Transportation Services were recorded outside of the Minneapolis daycare made famous in a Nick Shirley video for misspelling the word "learning."
