What the actual **** is going on at Secret Service?

Agents taking surreptitious photos of the grandson. Laptop stolen from an agent (and the thief ditched cash from the bag so you know it was targeted). A fence jumper stays on the grounds for fifteen minutes.

Look, I hate Dorito Mussolini as much as the next guy, but if you think the nation became a fucking madhouse after 9/11, you ain't seen nothing compared to what would happen if (God forbid) something happened to Trump because the Secret Service had their thumbs up their asses.

Somebody needs to fix the protective detail right the hell now.

unattended in a car. But especially my worktop because I would be accountable to my employer if it went missing. You would think a SS agent would know better.

Mess with the CIA, the FBI, the NSA, the DNI and the Secret Service and we may not be able to stop something from happening.

I have a really hard time believing a Secret Service agent left a laptop on her motorcycle in Brooklyn by accident in the cold weather. And that there was someone on the White House grounds for 17 minutes and no one investigated???

Or maybe they despise him and are just messing with him.

Maybe you don't quite stand down, but don't move too fast to sniff it out. This is the beagle that took a big nasty dump in front of a Trump sign. He's a good dog.
