Trump is removing US Secret Service director
CNN ^ | 04/08/2019 | Jake Tapper, Evan Perez and Betsy Klein

United States Secret Service director Randolph "Tex" Alles is being removed from his position, multiple administration officials tell CNN.

President Donald Trump instructed his acting chief of staff, Mick Mulvaney, to fire Alles. Alles remains in his position as of now but has been asked to leave.

The Secret Service director reports directly to the Secretary of Homeland Security, Kirstjen Nielsen, who resigned on Sunday amid growing pressure from the President. The director oversees the Secret Service's work on both protection and investigations.

"There is a near-systematic purge happening at the nation's second-largest national security agency," this official says.

United States Citizenship and Immigration Services director Francis Cissna and Office of the General Counsel's John Mitnick are expected to be gone soon, and the White House is eyeing others to be removed.

The President in recent weeks empowered Stephen Miller to lead the administration's border policies "and he's executing his plan" with what amounts to a wholesale decapitation or the Department of Homeland Security leadership, the official says.

Well, you know, ‘As The World Turns’ isn’t just a soap opera.

Thanks.

Not Murray, but I’m aware of him and he is a good pick.

This must be the aftermath of the Chinese woman getting past 4 Secret Service checkpoints and being stopped by President Trump’s receptionist.

It has been reported that Keith Schiller, Trump’s trusty former bodyguard, is working with the RNC to plan/develop the security for the 2020 convention.

“To my knowledge, he STILL has 4 US Marine guards around him at all times.”

I’m convinced that THEY have kept Trump alive. Remember that our Secret Service is tasked with protecting all our worst domestic enemies, and we know that they ALL want.

=================================================

If your referring to the 4 Marine Sentries at the White House, they aren't armed, they are ceremonial in nature. [1][2]

I’m not sure I’m referring to those. I often see men in uniform walking behind Trump on his visits to factories, etc.

Lol! My late father-in-law had big ears and knew it and made fun of himself about it. When my wife and I brought over to her parents house our first son, her Dad was holding the little infant and he said boy you are handsome devil except for those ears, I apologize for giving you the gene for those same ears as mine, you look like a yellow cab with the back doors open. My wife and I died laughing. The boy grew into them, lol!
