Furious Americans put the Secret Service and the Federal Bureau of Investigation on notice after a former high-ranking Trump White House aide posted a video, in which he openly bragged about giving homeless people counterfeit money with the sole purpose of getting them arrested when they try to spend it.
The horrifying video was posted on TikTok by Johnny McEntee — who began his time in the Trump White House as a bodyman and personal aide to the president only to be fired by John Kelly after failing a security clearance background check that discovered a Department of Homeland Security investigation against him for gambling debt issues and then rehired by Trump as the Director of the White House Presidential Personnel Office.
McEntee posted the clip under The Right Stuff account, a right-wing dating site that he co-founded, and bragged about his scheme to “clean up the community” by purposely getting homeless people arrested for counterfeit bills he gave them.
In the TikTok video, which features the former high-level Trump aide recording from his car, McEntee says, “So I always keep this fake Hollywood money in my car, so when a homeless person asks for money, and I give them like a $5 bill, I feel good about myself, they feel good. And then when they go to use it, they get arrested, so I’m actually helping to clean up the community and get them off the street.”
Social media users were absolutely livid, rightfully so, and took it upon themselves to repeatedly tag the Secret Service and the FBI, putting the law enforcement entities on notice about what the former high-ranking Trump aide has been doing:
Causing innocent people to be arrested is good, according to Trump aide. https://t.co/lGm8wCtYo6

Spoke to a friend recently who’s worked as civil servant for years and dealt with Trump people. He said, “Here’s the thing: They literally don’t care if something is illegal. Oh, that’s illegal? It’ll be fine.”
BTW, @SecretService, FYI. https://t.co/xvQ9LSc4JV

In the book and film American Psycho, the character of Patrick murdered and maimed homeless people.
Johnny McEntee, senior advisor to Project 2025, is the real life version of Patrick Bateman. The FBI and Secret Service needs to look into his actions.

Please say the U.S. Secret Service, Local DA, and police are already investigating and filing charges… hell, also phone up the FBI while you’re at it. https://t.co/d4okwgyLvV

Yeah, passing counterfeit money is definitely a crime. Bragging about it in public is all the evidence you need to show intent. Now how about the Secret Service and the FBI rolling up his network of sources of supply? Motive, means, opportunity, and receipts. https://t.co/N55CQXdKMY

Hello Feds! What are going to do about this fella bragging about passing counterfeit money to the homeless. Last I checked it was a federal crime. I believe the Secret Service has the lead in counterfeiting investigations @SecretService @FBI https://t.co/1LUFAGxjjF

@FBI needs to inform Secret Service that this individual is giving out counterfeit money! https://t.co/8dQ1EbFA8O
