An armed protester brandishing a sign calling the Biden clan criminals was caught on camera just outside the president’s Wilmington, Delaware residence on Sunday as his motorcade drove by, according to pool reports.

“A solo protester – wearing a neon yellow and orange safety vest, khaki cargo shorts, tan boots and socks – was spotted walking down the road toward the Biden home,” pool reports noted. “He appeared to have a gun in his holster.”

“One side of his sign read: ‘Bidens are criminals, 20 shell companies?! Where’s the laptop? 10% for the big guy.’ The other side: ‘Joe has aliases?! Robert L. Peters, Robin Ware, JRN Ware,” the report continued. “Pool spotted a Secret Service vehicle following him down the road.”

Secret Service spokesperson Special Agent Steve Kopek asserted in a statement, “The individual expressing his constitutional rights had no impact on any of the Secret Service’s protectees’ movements.”

Biden’s motorcade drove right past the demonstrator as the president headed to the Delaware Air National Guard Base, according to the Daily Mail.

“It’s unclear at this time if the man was asked to leave the area; a Secret Service vehicle was spotted ‘following’ the man as he was in the area; however, he was later spotted walking down the road alone as the White House motorcade departed the Biden residence,” the Independent reported.

Delaware is an open carry state so there was nothing illegal about the man being armed or in his protesting Biden.

Despite the man being within his rights, the Left is incensed over the event and heavily criticized the Secret Service for not handling the situation differently.

“An armed man approached President Biden’s home, and this is how Secret Service responded. Just… wow,” one person wrote on X alongside a screenshot of the agency’s statement.

According to leftists, despite open carry being legal in Delaware that doesn’t mean anyone with a gun should be allowed anywhere near the president. They seem to have a very fluid definition of Second Amendment rights.

“Since when did the US Secret Service demure to allow armed persons near the president’s home,” another person stated on X. “Everywhere the president is / is under control of Federal government so that open carry is meaningless. He is the number one federal protectee.”

The president is keeping a low profile after his son Hunter Biden was indicted on three federal gun charges. The White House claims that he will not pardon his son. He only went out to attend mass at his usual church, St. Joseph on the Brandywine, on Saturday according to the Daily Mail.

As the president left church services he ignored a reporter who yelled, “Mr. President, will you pardon your son?”

The protester’s sign alluded to pseudonyms the president allegedly used in emails while he was vice president. Republicans contend they were used to discuss Hunter Biden’s business deals with Ukraine.

Ironically, the incident happened after an armed man accused of impersonating a federal officer was taken into custody outside a theater in Los Angeles where Democratic presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. was getting ready to give a speech.

Kennedy’s campaign claims that his requests for Secret Service protection have been rejected, and he plans to apply again this month.

“I’m still entertaining a hope that President Biden will allow me Secret Service protection,” Kennedy wrote on X.
