Jan 17, 2025, 01:06 AM
President-elect Donald Trump is set to appoint Sean Curran as the new Director of the United States Secret Service. Curran, who has been leading Trump's personal security detail, was notably involved in protecting Trump during an assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania. He will replace Ron Rowe, who has been acting director since the resignation of Kimberly Cheatle in July following security lapses. Curran's appointment comes after he vocally advocated for enhanced security measures for Trump prior to the Butler incident. He has a close personal relationship with Trump and currently supervises about 85 agents.
