‘It’s Too Dangerous’: Biden Says Secret Service ‘Won’t Let’ Him Go Places With Large Crowds

President Joe Biden told reporters that the United States Secret Service (USSS) “won’t let” him make appearances in places with large crowds, explaining that they’ve informed him it is “too dangerous” to do so.

Biden told reporters that he’d enjoyed a recent campaign stop with Democratic presidential nominee and sitting Vice President Kamala Harris — who leapfrogged into the nomination after the party nudged Biden out of the race — but that he wasn’t really allowed to go out as often as he’d like.

“I’m not able to go out in the crowds anymore. The Secret Service doesn’t let me,” he said.

When a reporter asked him why, he added, “Well, because they say it’s too dangerous. No one gets to go out.”

Biden did not clarify further as to why the Secret Service felt such outings were too dangerous, but it is worth noting that it has been less than two months since a presidential protection detail failed to prevent a would-be assassin from gaining access to an elevated position less than 200 yards from former President Donald Trump. He shot and wounded three people, including Trump, on July 13 at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, and killed firefighter Corey Comperatore.

Over the weekend, Biden made a rare appearance on the campaign trail with Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris, telling a crowd in Pittsburgh that his great grandfather, Edward Francis Blewitt — who won his election to the Pennsylvania legislature in 1907 — had been accused of being a Molly Maguire.

But the Molly Maguires — a group of Irish immigrant coal miners with a penchant for violence — were only really active in Pennsylvania from 1862-1868 and then again briefly in 1874 and 1875. Biden’s great grandfather (born in 1859) would have been a teenager at the time.
