According to these whistleblowers, these agents just received a couple of hours of webinar training. Most of the agents were apparently &#8220;egregiously under prepared&#8221;. Senator Josh Hawley subsequently sent a letter to the acting Secret Service Director detailing these whistleblower complaints.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>From Daily Fetched:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Think about this: This former president of the US&#8230;is sent out on stage, most of the people there are not trained, they&#8217;re not qualified. They only got a webinar training, and even that didn&#8217;t work.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Hawley sent a letter to Acting Secret Service Director Ronald Rowe highlighting the new claims about Homeland Security Investigation (HSI) agents that partner with the Secret Service.<\/p>\n<p>He said the recent allegations &#8220;suggest that a significant number of personnel tasked with providing security for former President Trump at the July 13 rally were egregiously under-prepared by the Secret Service to carry out this mission.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) agents partner with the Secret Service, they should be properly trained. New whistleblower allegations contend that this isn&#8217;t happening&#8230;,&#8221; Hawley wrote.<\/p>\n<p>Hawley added that a whistleblower told him &#8220;that the only training received by many HSI agents reassigned to work protective details is a two-hour webinar on Microsoft Teams featuring pre-recorded videos.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Imagine 1,000 people logging onto Microsoft Teams at the same time after being informed at the last minute that everyone needed to login individually,&#8221; a whistleblower said, according to Hawley.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Once it got rolling, the Secret Service instructor couldn&#8217;t figure out how to get the audio working on the prerecorded videos (which I&#8217;m told are the same videos as last year).
