Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent condemned Democrats on Sunday and said their rhetoric is putting President Donald Trump's life in danger, shortly after an armed man breached the security perimeter at Mar-a-Lago before he was shot and killed by law enforcement. They are normalizing this violence. It's gotta stop, Bessent said during an appearance on Sunday Morning Futures on Fox News. He told anchor Maria Bartiromo a moment later, This venom from the left really has to stop. They normalize this violence.
Ivanka Trump wasn't the only rich and famous person to head to the posh and snowy mountain town of Aspen, Colorado, to celebrate the Christmas holidays. But according to a report, President Donald Trump's daughter and her family were the only visitors to arrive with a contingent of Secret Service agents that was so large that it put the village and its nearby ski slopes into full-blown security lockdown much to the dismay of others hoping to enjoy the long weekend.
A man was arrested late Tuesday night after crashing his vehicle into a security barrier outside the White House, prompting a swift lockdown and bomb squad response. The U.S. Secret Service confirmed that at approximately 10.37 p.m., an individual drove a vehicle into the Secret Service vehicle gate located at 17th & E St, NW, in Washington, DC. The individual was arrested and the vehicle was assessed and deemed safe, the agency added.

Due to the sheer scale of the infrastructure of this single SIM farm-and the fact that it reportedly came onto the Secret Service's radar after it was exploited in "swatting" attacks that targeted US members of Congress around Christmas of 2023-the agency has warned that the operation, which has been at least partially dismantled, posed a serious threat of a disruptive attack on cellular service.
It can't be understated what this system is capable of doing," said Matt McCool, the special agent in charge of the Secret Service's New York field office. "It can take down cell towers, so then no longer can people communicate, right? .... You can't text message, you can't use your cell phone. And if you coupled that with some sort of other event associated with UNGA, you know, use your imagination there, it could be catastrophic to the city."
"I skipped a meeting at the White House to be here because we know that you skipped school yesterday. I took a course through the Secret Service on forgery, and you think we're not gonna know that you forged your mom's signature to skip school?"
