Joe Biden’s life is at risk too by such incompetence.

He's safe. The SS works for Dr Jill. On second thought.......

So secret service agents are not required to be as physically capable as those who installed the roof in the first place. I lived in Eugene Oregon for over 40 years and met so many people who would automatically assign credibility to that statement just because it was made by a Biden appointee.

So, you sweep the “steep roof” with a visual inspection by a person or drone and then secure it from the ground on all four sides and inside, if there’s a roof access hatch, with 4-5 cleared “rent a cops” or LE personnel. It isn’t rocket science…

I’m amazed that she still has the job.

Really? They were all in on it.

This comment from her is beyond ridiculous. Too sloped for safety-— maybe from pony tailed fat chicks who think they’re in an all female western. What utter bilge!

“. . . sloped roof at its highest point.”

Isn't the entire roof sloped - all the way to the eve?

It looks like someone that doesn't understand water runs downhill told that woman to say that.

Pitiful. And she is supervising an elite armed force.

My driveway has less of a slope than that.

More like a Runt with a C. She should be ran out of town on a rail, with townspeople chasing her to the La Brea tarpits.

Won’t anyone say the truth? A woman in charge of the SS is as idiotic as a woman Fire Chief. Sure, if it is known to be a political stunt for an appt, but SHE DIDN’T EARN IT, and the men under her know it.

Let me explain my reasoning. A woman can boss around the firemen, and the SS agents just fine. The problem is, MEN make the best of both professions. A capable man should have the way open and the ability to move up the “ladder of success”. Capable men are not just drones, they DESERVE to be something other than a grunt. All but a few Women can handle the heavy firehoses, neither can older men. They can though become Captains and Lieutenants, and Commanders, unless women fill those posts to fill out positions for DEI purposes.

Becoming a SS agent, Firefighter, or Police should not be a dead end job for men. If a woman can compete against a man in drills and exercises THAT ARE NOT DUMBED DOWN, she can be welcomed. But like female Navy Seals, they are the few and the far between, or nonexistent.

Are there any women on Biden’s Secret Service detail? Asking for a friend.

That roof appears to be about a 2/12 pitch.

I have a Salt Box style house with a 7/12 pitch on the front and a 4/12 pitch on the back. The back is very easy to walk on. Even the 7/12 is not bad with the right work boots.

This is classic gas lighting. Making up some stupid excuse to cover your ignorance and ineptitude. I can not believe that this lady was the CEO of Pepsi Cola. A major corporation. She seems to be a classic example of the Peter Principle.

She needs to resign or be fired immediately.

If Traitor Joe were ANY kind of leader, he would summarily fire her, but we all know he isn't. Besides, Joe and his underlings set it up to enable any potential assassin.

One would think that the Secret Service knows a whole heck of a lot about roofs, in fact would almost think of them as its domain.

A roof so steep that a dead assassin didn’t roll off of it. What a dangerous roof.

“””””I meant my driveway has more slope than that.”””””

There have been weekends when I have seen floors with more slope than that.

Public affairs/PR guy for the SS is a dude named Gugliemi— used to work for Pfizer. Tells us something, depending on his timeline.

Pepsi/Cheetos and Pfizer— covidvax. what a powerhouse.
