Ex-Secret Service Agent Dan Bongino Says He is Growing Concerned About Trumps Safety!

Who Is Dan Bongino?

Dan Bongino is a former U.S. Secret Service agent and NYPD officer who has become a prominent conservative media personality. He served as a protective agent during his Secret Service career before transitioning into talk radio and podcasting, where he built a large following commenting on politics and national security. In February 2025, former President Trump announced that Bongino would be appointed Deputy Director of the FBI, a rare move for a media figure without deep FBI experience. Bongino officially assumed that role in March 2025 and later announced plans to resign in January 2026 to return to media work.

Security Worries and Online Claims

Much of the recent discussion about Bongino “raising alarms” over Trump’s safety comes from viral videos, social media posts, and online commentary — not official statements covered by major outlets. Bongino has a history of discussing security and insider concerns from his time in law enforcement, including intense criticism after security lapses or perceived threats. In some past appearances, he has warned about security vulnerabilities or suggested that political figures face serious threats, especially in the context of polarized U.S. politics. A widely circulated clip on YouTube from 2024 shows him warning of possible future security incidents involving Trump and criticizing the Secret Service’s performance — though this is not the same as a verified statement about current safety concerns.

Why the Topic Resonates

There are a few reasons this narrative gains traction online:

• Bongino’s Secret Service background: Because he once worked in presidential protection, observers are more likely to treat his comments as having weight on security matters.
• Polarized political climate: In highly charged political environments, concerns about violence or threats against public figures often become focal points for both supporters and critics.
• Amplification through social media: Claims that a former Secret Service agent is warning about Trump’s safety spread quickly on platforms where context and sourcing can be loose.

Confirmed News Context

While direct reporting on a specific safety warning from Bongino is scarce, there are documented instances of security‑related developments linked to Trump’s public appearances. For example, several months ago federal authorities investigated a suspicious elevated hunting stand near the landing zone used by Air Force One in West Palm Beach — a discovery that prompted changes to security perimeters and drew attention to presidential protection efforts.

Meanwhile, Trump has remained a flashpoint in national political debates, including over voting rights and election administration — topics that have generated heated reactions across the political spectrum. (Reuters)
