BREAKING: A Secret Service agent has landed in hot water after allegedly trying to sneak his wife onto a mission support flight accompanying President Trump’s recent trip to Scotland.
The wife, reportedly a U.S. Air Force member, received an official mission briefing and was even bused to Joint Base Andrews before being stopped.
“Wouldn’t you think it might be a little dangerous?” President Trump asked reporters as he returned to Washington. “That’s a weird deal.”
Secret Service officials confirmed the attempt was blocked before takeoff. “The employee was advised this action was prohibited,” said agency spokesperson Anthony Guglielmi.
The scandal comes at a tense time for the Secret Service, already under fire for recent failures to prevent two attempts on Trump’s life during the campaign.
Trump, however, remains focused on his booming economic message. New trade deals have helped boost consumer confidence to 97.2, and tariff revenues have exploded past $150 billion this year, according to the Treasury.
While critics warn of rising prices, Trump’s administration highlights historic trade pacts with the EU, UK, China, and Japan—deals that may redirect billions from Russia’s energy sector to the U.S.
It’s a week of turbulence and triumph for Trump, with the Secret Service under investigation, but the economy firing on all cylinders.
