Did Secret Service officials associated with Vice President Joe Biden thank a baker for refusing to host the vice president at his shop on Wednesday, as local media reported? The U.S. Secret Service says it didn’t happen.

“[O]ur personnel were not involved in making that statement,” U.S. Secret Service spokesman Max Milien told National Review Online’s Daniel Foster. “Milien said there were agents in the bakery, along with (similarly dressed) local law enforcement, but that USSS was there merely to thank the shop owners for their trouble and apologize for any inconvenience the advance team may have caused them,” National Review added.

It wasn’t so long ago that the USSS was thrown under the bus in central America. Payback time?

[lightman]

And...then they uttered, “Obama & Biden”, God help America!!!

You mean Bam-bam and Pebbles.

LOL!!!

The advance team goes before who they are leading - anyone within that team is called the team. So they didn’t send a team in.

I wasn’t aware that a Colombian Hooker owned the Bakery.

I am so not convinced of that SA ‘story’.

The U.S. Secret Service says it didn’t happen.

At least not on official "Secret Service Letterhead" stationery.

CORRECTO MUNDO! You know the Secret Service/special forces guys see the chink in oboma’s armour, hear and see the tide turning in this country, and they are now speaking up and speaking out. I would expect THEM to be the first to start lashing back at these commies/socialists/marxists/revolutionary/sharia law loving thugs in OUR government.

I would rather have an idiot running the country over a full blown marxist President leading us over the cliff on purpose. Heck, if Biden intentially tried to betray America he would cock it up so badly that we would end up running the world, every child in Africa would have a full belly, and gas would be under a dollar a gallon.

lol bam bam and peebles I about chocked on the cookie I was eating I laughed so hard

[miserare]

Better to get caught redhanded with donuts rather than hookers!

[a real Sheila]

Um ok.

I seem to recall SS denying partying with high priced hookers too, but well, we see THAT was a lie.

[Lancey Howard]

Sounds like the White House political machine has their hands full right at home.

Perhaps the local law enforcement thanked the baker. Certainly, the rest of the community appreciated the rejection. On Thursday, after the public learned of the story, the bakery did so much business that it ran out of food by 1:15 p.m.

A nice repeat of Chick-fil-A Day!

Chris the Baker was on Chris Plante’s show on WMAL this morning at 9:00 and said the USSS didn’t say ‘thank you.’ One said, ‘awesome’ as they munched on cookies and cupcakes when Chris the Baker said why he had declined the Biden team’s invitation.
