And, sadly, the FBI.

Did Don Jr send his child alone in a car with SS agents????? Noooooooo. The children need to have a trusted nanny or a parent along.

“Something tells me the agents were not of the highest caliber to have drawn such an assignment.”

Maybe that is why they were assigned to protect Trump. Those SS agents should be fired or as a minimum punishment they should be assigned to Hillary Clinton detail.

Mother Jones is an odd source for this, is it being reported by anyone else?

Two agents taking selfies with the sleeping Donald Trump III while traveling, I assume in a government issue Suburban? What, they sat on each side of him in the back seat with him in the middle? What freaked him out?

A lot doesn’t make sense but it’s a disturbing story. I don’t know that I buy the peso angle but it feels threatening somehow.

They’re citing Mother Jones so it’s largely a rehash. One thing I did notice is that the supposed investigation relates to these agents abandoning their post, so whatever occurred, it wasn’t en route while the agents were in the same vehicle as the boy.

Justification for termination. No questions asked nor answered.

Where were the parents? The wife doesn’t even work. No excuse.

This looks like a thinly veiled threat straight out of "The Godfather." Like: "Just think what we could have done to him or you if we wanted to or were ordered to." Those who did this should be summarily fired.

If the account is true and accurate, it does seem like a kidnapping threat at a minimum. I’m still trying to understand what freaked the boy out. I guess a child of a very well known and very wealthy family would be keenly aware of possible kidnapping threats even at his age. Fell asleep, woke up to an agent who was not in the car with him leaning over him taking a picture, vehicle stopped, door likely open. The driver took part too, if he or she wasn’t one of the two.

At the risk of taking on incoming flames, DJT JR, IMHO, posts far too many pics of his children on Instagram. One would think he’d want to protect their privacy, instead of constantly posting pictures, some in intimate family moments, across the net world.

A source with knowledge of the information tells Mother Jones...

That’s right, deflect any fault from the federal emploees (which Secret Service agents happen to be). I’m not even sure this is true (considering the source) but, if it is, the involved agents have proven themselves untrustworthy (at best) and should be promptly removed from their detail to protection duties.

At age 8, and being in a very wealthy, super high profile political family, he's old enough to have been instructed in things to look out for and what to be freaked out about. Looks like he took his training seriously and did good job.

Further advice to the family: get him an American Staffordshire Terrier or Great Dane puppy and make sure the dog stays with him at all times.

This is bizarre at best and creepy at worst.

I wouldn’t be so sure. If the corruption is as pervasive as expected, far too may people would work to cover it up. And who is left with ethics and morals to properly try and convict these scum. In an ideal world, I would replace 95% of the US government, workers, agencies, etc., and start over. But who do we have to do that?

The SS has turned into a cesspool.

The first thought that occurred to me.

I would demand to see all photographs taken.

Do you have your eyes on your entire household when your home with your child? do you loom over it’s bed when it’s sleeping? I don’t think so. if you have Secret Service or other people in your house even when you are home and are a responsible parent, they can easily get into another room without you seeing that occur... and I imagine the size and scope of the Trump Junior house is rather large so no, it is not impossible that the Secret Service would be in the child’s room without the parent knowing Sorry...can’t blame everything on parents with money.
