President Donald Trump will announce Sean Curran as the head of Secret Service, according to several media sources that all cite CNN as the source.
Curran is pictured above helping Trump leave the stage in Butler, Penn. after the president was shot during a rally last summer. As presumed incoming director of the Secret Service, he is someone who Trump trusts.
Curran has led Trump’s security detail for the past four years and has supervised about 85 people in that detail.
Acting Director Ronald Rowe replaced Director Kim Cheatle, who resigned after the first major assassination attempt on Trump’s life in July of 2024. He has lobbied for the job, according to reports.
A second known attempt on Trump’s life was made in September, when an assassin snuck into position outside of Trump International Golf Club.
For two years prior to the two assassination attempts, the Secret Service denied the requests of Trump for added security. When confronted with that allegation, the Secret Service then lied about it, but later sources inside the service admitted it was factual to the New York Times.
The Secret Service is one of the nation’s oldest federal investigative law enforcement agencies.
Founded in 1865 as a branch of the U.S. Treasury Department, it was created to combat the counterfeiting of U.S. currency. It’s estimated that following the Civil War, between a third and half of all currency in the U.S. was counterfeit.
In 1901, following the assassination of President William McKinley in Buffalo, N.Y., the Secret Service was tasked an additional mission, and the one it is now known for: Protecting the president.
Critics will pounce on Curran’s lack of experience managing an agency the size of the Secret Service, which employs some 3,200 special agents, 1,300 uniformed division officers, and more than 2,000 other technical, professional and administrative support personnel.
But Trump is probably more interested in having someone at the agency who he trusts, especially after the assassination attempts he has lived through under the Biden era, when the Secret Service started emphasizing D.E.I. — Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion — and took criticism for not putting enough appropriate resources in place to protect presidents and presidential candidates. Under the Biden Administration, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. was denied service protection while he was a presidential candidate even though his father, Sen. Robert F. Kennedy, and uncle, President John F. Kennedy, had both been assassinated.
Outstanding. Sean Curran was very close to flying bullets at Butler, PA. The man proved he would take a bullet for Trump. Meanwhile, when are we going to know more about the 20-year old punk who almost killed Trump? Nothing…..since way back in July. Why is that?
On the other hand, he was part of the team that let the sniper take the shot. The jury is still out for me.
Good question Rick on the shooter. How about a full report Suzanne. Sob tried to kill Trump. Entire situation is bizarre beyond words. We want answers. Who put him up to it ?? Inquiring citizens want to know.
That’s classified and you’re not read in.
Nor are you
I thought were incarcerated by now.
Ha, haven’t you noticed, the tide around here is done with your nonsense.
I don’t have access to your IP. Address, but i’m gonna go with china for you.
Now wouldn’t that be fun. Let’s see how many accounts are tied to your shady pines IP address.
Got for it comrade.
The internet is so full of information
Hey Forkner. Try using a spoon with your logic.
You get more.
Where were those cellphone calls going to……made from Crook’s cellphones ( two phones, 1.5 hrs before assassination attempt)???. ……crickets ..
What a great choice! Dems will hate on Curran of course (mostly because he helped save Trump’s life), but Dems hate everything — themselves most of all. This is shaping up to be a great administration. Very proud of our incoming President.
I’m beginning to feel Great Again.
black coffee is going to be upset that a person with commonsense and not a dei hire is getting this job!
This agent is Always close to Pres. Trump. I remember seeing him at the Alaska 2020 rally. His job is be near the Pres. not to secure buildings. That was not his job at that time and he had no control of the building security. We still don’t know what the behind the scenes conversations were. He may have been notified and stayed close. We might never know, had Pres. Trump not been elected
I’m glad it was that guy instead of that short, little chubster girl that was ducking around and didn’t know her a** from a hole in the ground.
The short lady wasnt secret service, she was a fill in from DHS. You are well behind.the information curve.
Regardless she seemed pretty incompetent.
I would say she probably has more moxy than yourself. At least she made an attempt to protect him.
Likely hiding by trump trying to figure out where the lead was coming from.
Kinda like you hiding behind Suzanne’s skirt when your feelings get hurt, right?

The US Constitution and republic form shape of government is guaranteed on an equal footing basis to every government creation pursuant to the US Constitution in every state of the union. Part of that guarantee process stops with the executive and the Secret Service. if a state of the union legislature fails to act per their oath to secure the Constitution availability of constitutional rights or the state executive has failed to act to secure the rights and blessings of liberty; part of the salvation and reclamation of those rights in the state falls on the secret service to go in and secure those rights
That is the enforcement part of the guarantee of the republic to every man man and legal inhabitants in these united states.
Wimp Trump takes inauguration ceremony inside; DC temperatures too much for him.
He is a member of the elderly class and I can tell you that our immunity is not the same as it was when we were younger.
Reagan did under similar circumstances. And your man Biden wouldn’t rate as high as a skid mark on either Reagan or Trump’s skivvies. The issue is public safety in single digit temps. My father was at that second Reagan inauguration. He lived in both Fairbanks and Anchorage. He wore a wolf, fox and marten parka that he had trapped himself, and he said he was outside for hours and froze his backside off. Even money says Dog would have BMWed that Trump was self serving and cruel if had he ordered the inauguration to remain outdoors. Pack it up and shut it down, Doggy; seek help for your TDS.
Sled Dogs mommy buckled his helmet on too tight. Poor baby.
Even money says Lisa will object to Curran.
