“If true...these golf carts, infamously driven by now-indicted insurrections on the day the Capitol was violently attacked—were arranged by Trump and his team” AND 'how many members of the Secret Service deserve to be indicted for the events of January 6"

"The Trump-era Secret Service used special golf carts to protect the president during the significant percentage of his presidency he spent on golf courses. According to Golf News Net, the Trump Secret Service golf carts went '19 mph instead of the more common 14 mph”, and “ha[d] specific features [that] golf carts at Trump-owned golf clubs cannot accommodate.”

By May 2020, the minimum amount spent by the Secret Service on golf carts alone—in the forty months since Trump’s inauguration—was $765,425. Golf cart rental vendors used by the Secret Service included Maddox Joines (d.b.a. Sunshine Golf Cars) for Trump’s trips to Mar-a-Lago; Associates Golf Car Service, for his trips to his golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey; and West Virginia-based Capitol Golf Cars and Utility Vehicles for the former president’s trips to Trump National in northern Virginia.

Those last 3 sentences by Seth Abramson:

“If true—and so far the evidence points in that direction—these golf carts, infamously driven by now-indicted insurrections on the day the Capitol was violently attacked—were arranged by Trump and his team, and as such are evidence of their criminal intent in the most seditious attack on America’s seat of government since the War of 1812.

The question now: did those golf carts drive 19 mph on Insurrection Day, or 14 mph?

The answer to that question may determine how many members of the Secret Service deserve to be indicted for the events of January 6 before the FBI’s investigation is over.”

Why the Golf Carts Matter Now

Many Americans don’t realize that the Stop the Steal event on January 6—and possibly the one on January 5 as well—were notcoordinated by the organizations that signed up for the permits for those events. 

As Proof has detailed, in mid- to late December of 2020, all of these organizations were commandeered—behind the scenes—by the Trump political team, including men and women inside the White House and others connected to the Trump 2020 presidential campaign. Indeed, key figures who coordinated the Stop the Steal event of January 6 in particular were people on Trump’s payroll, including the follow: 

• Kimberly Guilfoyle, presidential adviser and girlfriend of Donald Trump Jr.; 

• Katrina Pierson, 2016 Trump campaign spokeswoman and 2020 Trump campaign adviser, assigned by Trump pre-insurrection to be a liaison between the White House and grassroots organizations; 

• Brian Jack, the White House political director; 

• Anthony Ornato, former presidential detail head at the Secret Service and White House Chief of Operations on January 6; 

• Tim Unes, 2016 Trump campaign Deputy Director of Advance and founder of Event Strategies (the production vendor for the March to Save America); 

• Paul Manafort, 2016 Trump campaign manager and executive with Tim Unes’s Event Strategies);

• Caroline Wren, National Finance Consultant for the 2020 Trump campaign, “VIP advisor” on the Women for America First rally permit, political aide to Kimberly Guilfoyle, and employee of Trump Victory, a Trump-RNC partnership; 

• Maggie Mulvaney, Director of Finance Operations for the 2020 Trump campaign, niece of former Trump chief of staff Mick Mulvaney, and “VIP lead” on the Women for America First rally permit; 

• Justin Caporale, 2020 Trump campaign aide, former top aide to First Lady Melania Trump, and Project Manager for the March to Save America; 

• Hannah Salem, Director of Press Advance for the 2020 Trump campaign, former Special Assistant to the President, and Operations Manager for the March to Save America; and 

• Arina Grossu, Outreach Coordinator for the Trump administration Department of Health and Human Services’ “Religious Freedom Office.”

These 11 individuals, per the pro-Trump grassroots activists they often acrimoniously supplanted, like Cindy Chafian, handled not just planning and logistics but—wait for it—all budgeting, which was the exclusive province of Guilfoyle aide Caroline Wren.

And if there’s one thing we know about golf carts from news coverage of them during the Trump era, it’s that golf carts can be expensive.

And if there’s a second thing we know about golf carts in the Trump era, it’s that the Secret Service had gotten very good at figuring out how to get them on short notice.

And if there’s a third thing we know—in this case, about the January 6 insurrection—it’s that both Alex Jones and Ali Alexander are on video saying that they were working with the Secret Service before the Stop the Steal event at which the Service’s protectee Trump was going to speak, and were still working with the Service in the VIP area of Trump’s January 6 speech (the same area Oath Keeper Jessica Watkins was waiting for Roger Stone in, with Stone having been transported by golf cart by Watkins’ fellow Oath Keepers fifteen hours earlier) to coordinate the start of the march on the Capitol.
