Sean Curran led the president-elect’s security detail during two unsuccessful assassination attempts
Donald Trump will name Sean Curran, who currently leads his Secret Service (USSS) bodyguard detail, as the agency’s next director, as announced by the president-elect’s son. Curran was among the agents who protected Trump when a gunman attempted to assassinate him during a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.
Trump has faced several assassination attempts during his 2024 reelection campaign. The USSS leadership has come under scrutiny and criticism over security lapses following the attempt on Trump’s life in Butler, which culminated in the resignation of Director Kimberly Cheatle.
“President Trump will be naming Sean Curran, who heads his personal detail, to be Secret Service Director,” Donald Trump Jr. said in a post on X (formerly Twitter) on Friday. “Sean is a great patriot and will stop all the insanity once and for all. There’s not a better person for this position!” he added.
