Trump Names Secret Service Agent Who Sprung Into Action In Butler To Lead Agency

President Donald Trump formally nominated the head of his personal Security Service security detail to serve as the director of the agency moving forward.

Trump nominated Sean Curran, who sprung into action during the assassination attempt on Trump back in July, to the role in a post on Wednesday evening.

“It is my great honor to appoint Sean Curran as the next Director of the United States Secret Service,” Trump said in a statement. “Sean is a Great Patriot, who has protected my family over the past few years, and that is why I trust him to lead the Brave Men and Women of the United States Secret Service.”

“Sean has distinguished himself as a brilliant leader, who is capable of directing and leading operational security plans for some of the most complex Special Security Events in the History of our Country, and the World,” he continued. “He proved his fearless courage when he risked his own life to help save mine from an assassin’s bullet in Butler, Pennsylvania. I have complete and total confidence in Sean to make the United States Secret Service stronger than ever before.”

Trump highlighted Curran’s more than two decades of law enforcement experience, including his start as a Special Agent in the Newark Secret Service Field Office in 2001 where he carried out a wide range of important operations for the agency.

Curran served as Trump’s Assistant Special Agent in Charge of the Presidential Protective Division during Trump’s first term in office where he had “direct oversight and responsibility of multiple protectees, and enhanced security plans for my residences.”

Donald Trump Jr. teased out the nomination in a post last week where he called Curran a “great patriot” who “will stop all the insanity once and for all.”

“There’s not a better person to be in this position!” he added.

Fibis I am just an average American. My teen years were in the late 70s and I participated in all that that decade offered. Started working young, too young. Then I joined the Army before I graduated High School. I spent 25 years in, mostly in Infantry units. Since then I've worked in information technology positions all at small family owned companies. At this rate I'll never be a tech millionaire. When I was young I rode horses as much as I could. I do believe I should have been a cowboy. I'm getting in the saddle again by taking riding lessons and see where it goes.
