Secret Service agents said Pope Francis’ life is in danger because they cannot adequately protect him during his upcoming visit to the U.S., WND reports.
The agents expressed concerns over the pope’s plans to ride in an open vehicle through crowds next week in Washington and New York.
Several agents assigned to papal security confided to WND that the pope won’t have enough protection.
“He wants to mingle with the crowd, kiss the babies and be accessible to the sick and elderly,” a Secret Service source said. “With what Vatican security is demanding we do politically, protecting the pope in the U.S. visit is going to be a nightmare.”
Dan Bongino, a former Secret Service agent, agrees.
“Because of the way Pope Francis wants his security handled, with a more discrete presence, the pope’s visit to the United States is a security disaster,” Bongino said.
