After an argument that ended in gunfire, a White House staffer and her boyfriend, who works for the Capitol Police, have been put on leave from their jobs, according to reports. The domestic dispute reportedly took place on the evening of Aug. 6. Barvetta Singletary, a member of the White House legislative affairs team, sent her boyfriend, who works on the dignitary protection detail, a text that invited him over, according to Roll Call.

The two then got into a dispute and Singletary allegedly reached into her boyfriend’s bag. According to reports, she pulled out two cellphones and his gun — then she allegedly fired one round. It’s not clear whether she had intended to shoot at her boyfriend. Neither was injured.

Wow. I would advise him to break off the relationship, now if not sooner. I don’t think you can trust a girl who pulls your own gun on you.

Gun control for us, but not for them.

With Clinton, we had inside sources that talked about all the nefarious going on inside of the White House. The Obama Presidency has been very effective at controlling what gets out.

The rest of the story. They went to his car and she asked to see his cellphones. He refused and she took the two phones and gun out of the bag and ran into the house.

He pleaded for his gun back. She said she wanted his passwords and challenged him which was more important; her hold an gun on him or giving up the passwords:

“You taught me how to use this. Don’t think I won’t use it,”

She then fired one shot in his direction.

Well, he's carrying a loaded gun not on his person, but in a bag. Not illegal, but maybe against policy.

Barvetta...hmmm?

I really thought her name might be Lonteesha, Keesha, Breneesha...or some other bogus African based name.
