A Secret Service agent assigned to Vice President JD Vance has been placed on leave on Wednesday after he was caught on undercover video spilling details about Vances travel plans and how the vice president is protected.
Reporter James OKeefe shared the 14-minute report on X on Tuesday. The agent, identified as Tomas Escotto, believed he was on a date with woman while he was blabbing about Vance; the woman turned out to be a reporter for OKeefe Media Group.
Escotto talked about how the vice president is protected and the security measures agents take. He also told the woman he voted for ex-President Joe Biden and I hate that sh*t when talking about President Donald Trumps ICE raids.
The agent later texted the woman on Dec. 26 about Vances travel plans for the next week, revealing he would be in Ohio and Florida for a handful of days. He also sent the reporter pictures of him aboard Air Force 2 and also pictures that provided metadata on where the presidents convoy was located.
