Vance, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, and Secretary of State marco Rubio, during a dinner at Joe&#8217;s Seafood, Prime Steak &#038; Stone Crab near the White House. As the group loudly protested, Trump stood nearby and reportedly smiled before instructing to escort the protesters out.the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/biden-emerges-as-dividing-line-for-dems-in-pennsylvania-senate-primary\/\" title=\"Biden Emerges as Dividing Line for Dems in Pennsylvania Senate Primary\">incident raised concerns<\/a> and questions about the Secret Service&#8217;s handling of security, with some critics asking whether the president&#8217;s location had been leaked and why the Secret Service was slow to respond. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt confirmed the officials enjoyed their meal, and Trump used the occasion to assert that Washington, D.C. has become much safer in recent years. Protesters had gained entry by making restaurant reservations, according to Code Pink organizers.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>An incident that allowed pro-Palestine activists to come within a few feet of President Donald Trump on Tuesday has led some to question whether the Secret Service was on the job.<\/p>\n<p>On Tuesday. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/trump-calls-quick-death-penalty-murderer-iryna-zarutska-can-no-option\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Trump<\/a> and others, including &nbsp;Vice President J.D.

On that day, Trump, along with Vice President J.D. Vance, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, and Secretary of State Marco Rubio, visited Joe&#8217;s Seafood, Prime Steak &amp; Stone Crab near the White House. As they entered, members of the activist group Code Pink confronted them with chants. According to reports, Trump smiled at the protesters before asking them to leave after a brief moment.  <\/p>\n<p>Questions have arisen about whether someone leaked the President&#8217;s location to Code Pink and how protesters were allowed such proximity. Republican Representative Anna Paulina Luna expressed these concerns on social media, calling for an investigation into possible security lapses or leaks within the Secret Service. Similarly, commentator Stu Smith criticized the agency&#8217;s slow response during the incident.<\/p>\n<p>White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt stated that Trump and his team enjoyed their meal without issue. Trump himself remarked that Washington D.C., once considered unsafe over recent years and decades past, has now become much safer-a point he emphasized while standing outside the restaurant.<\/p>\n<p>Video footage shows protesters chanting slogans like &#8220;Free DC&#8221; and &#8220;Free Palestine&#8221; as they approached Trump inside Joe&#8217;s Seafood.
