“Secret Service Agent Makes Alarming Post After the Charlie Kirk Tragedy, Stirring Shockwaves Across Social Media as Supporters and Critics Alike Question the Meaning, Intent, and Timing of His Words While Calls Grow Louder for Transparency and Accountability in the Wake of the Devastating Assassination”

A controversial social media post allegedly made by a U.S. Secret Service agent has drawn public attention for appearing to approve of the assassination of conservative commentator Charlie Kirk. The post, attributed to a Facebook account under the name Anthony Pough, stated, “You can’t circumvent karma, she doesn’t leave,” and labeled Kirk as someone who “spews hate and racism on his show.” Journalist Susan Crabtree of RealClearPolitics highlighted the post, though it remains unclear if the account truly belongs to a Secret Service agent.

The post surfaced shortly after Kirk was fatally shot at a Utah Valley University event. Kirk was a prominent conservative voice and had received the Presidential Medal of Freedom from former President Donald Trump. The timing and tone of the post raised alarms, particularly among members of the Secret Service, who reportedly expressed concern over a colleague publicly appearing to celebrate a political assassination.

According to Crabtree, several Secret Service insiders questioned the professionalism and neutrality of the individual behind the post. One source emphasized that openly celebrating the death of any American exercising their political rights is “dangerous,” especially for someone sworn to protect public officials regardless of political affiliation.

The individual behind the post was reportedly critical of Trump and was not part of the former president’s regular security detail. However, all Secret Service agents are subject to reassignment, including temporary protection of high-profile figures like Trump, raising concerns about the agent’s ability to perform duties impartially.

The Facebook post also reignited controversy surrounding Charlie Kirk’s public remarks, including alleged racially charged comments in 2023 regarding black women and affirmative action. These remarks were referenced to justify the hostility shown in the post.

This incident adds to growing tensions within federal law enforcement, especially amid polarizing political topics such as transgender rights and ideological divisions among state leaders like Minnesota Governor Tim Walz.
