About this title

Synopsis

He swore to take a bullet for the President and left it all behind to take a bullet for the American people.

Why would a successful, twelve-year Secret Service agent resign his position in the prime of his career to run for political office against all the odds? How does the Washington DC “Bubble”—a haze of lobbyists, cronyists, staff, acolytes, consultants, and bureaucrats—surrounding the President distort his view of the world?

Take the journey with Dan Bongino from the tough streets of New York City where he was raised, and later patrolled as a member of the NYPD, to the White House as a member of the elite Presidential Protective Division, through his ultimate decision to resign from the Secret Service in the prime of his career to run for the United States Senate against the feared Maryland Democratic machine. Follow his experiences inside the Washington DC “Bubble” and uncover why a government that includes the incredibly dedicated people he encountered while within it continues to make tragic mistakes.

Learn how…
• Bureaucratic laziness allows the NSA collection scandal to continue
• The Department of Justice’s unwillingness to take on the tough cases allowed “Fast & Furious” to arm criminals
• The Obama administration allowed US citizens to die in Benghazi in the worst dereliction of responsibility over security ever
• The “Politics of Protection” leads to dangerous policies that weaken our country and cost American lives

“A rare peak inside the DC ‘Bubble’ which should be a wake-up call to every American.” —Sean Hannity
