US Secret Service warns of ‘Armageddon’ in 2028
The US Secret Service has internally designated the year 2028 as ‘Armageddon’ due to the unprecedented convergence of major security challenges. The agency faces the dual pressure of a high-stakes presidential election and the Los Angeles Summer Olympics, which will mark the first Summer Games held in the United States since Atlanta 1996.
Following recent security failures, including the assassination attempt on Donald Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania, the agency is operating under intense scrutiny. To address existing capacity issues and prepare for the influx of visiting heads of state and government expected during the Olympics, the Secret Service is launching a massive recruitment offensive.
