The Secret Service is an honorable organization, willing to put up with abuse from Hillary and others while putting their lives at risk protecting them. I dont believe this story.

Every organization is made of people, though, something we conservatives remember more often than the libs.
I can imagine the Secret Service being a place where it’s easy to feel above the law, because in so many cases, they basically are. Maybe it was hard for some of them to draw a line.
Sh!t runs down hill?
That's certainly possible.But having done some traveling in the Third World my first belief is that,after having looked around a bit,*no* guy could *possibly* be desperate enough,crazy enough,drunk enough to want to get within 50 feet of any local hooker.Hell,I would get within 50 feet of a *First* World hooker myself,but I guess that's just me.
I live in Mexico, when politicians from the USA visit the country, they are wined and dined, and party animals. The political enviroment in many Latin American countries is well known for lot’s of ladies, liquor and dancing floors. I wouldn’t want anyone’s reputation to suffer for standing up for Secret Service people who did what the politicians have always done.
You are BIGtime wrong! Every organization has been morally dumbdowned by the commie usurper. Big Sis is going to the bighouse for perjury, GSA head pleads 5th, DOJ Holder furious crap, Salazar ignoring court, etc etc. Why would some scumbag secret service be any different? The secret service is just a job now, nothing to do with Honor and Country.
I have known quite a few of them and most of them are really good guys who are honorable and serious about their jobs. I have also known a few who enjoyed their drink and had a wandering eye.
You can say the same thing throughout law enforcement, the courts, churches, boy scouts, the Amish, social services, banks, the CIA, the military, and any other organization that is composed of men and women.
I suspect the issue here is that one or a few compromised themselves (pretty serious given their mission) and the others did not do anything about it (also compromising the mission) but that is just speculation and I will wait to hear more.
Unless being a Secret Service agent negates their humanity, making them either more human or less human, then they have the same strengths and failings as other human beings, and are able of the highest ideals and the basest instincts applicable to people. This means that while they are brave people sworn to protect the office of the presidency, are well trained and definitely well selected, they are still humans which means out of a given sample there will be those who would do bad/stupid things. Being a SService agent, just like being a cop or a soldier or a priest, doesn’t make one immune to sin, stupidity and senseless behaviour.
The Black Panthers have been stumping for some good paying jobs. There are now some openings.
E.E.O.C. hires
Around the time he was inaugurated, I heard that Obama brought some of his own Chicago thugs with him into the Secret Service. I haven’t heard any more about that, and I don’t know for sure whether it’s true, but I think it’s certainly possible.
Maybe these 12 SS agents were intending to formally execute a subpoena for the Usurper to appear before a secret, federal grand jury...
There are honorable people in the Secret Service.
Moving Secret Service from Treasury Dept. to Dept. of Homeland Security was a major error, IMO. We all know what an unmitigated disaster Homeland Security has been...
honorable??? protecting a commie usurper who can’t pass a background check?
At worst, the Secret Service agents were acting like ordinary United Nations diplomats.
I would suggest an amendment to your statement thus: “the Secret Service WAS an honorable institution.”
Honor and integrity flow from the top, and conversely, dishonor and corruption flow from the top too. It is likely these agents have seen the absolute corruption flowing from Zerobama and Mooch-el: his flaunting of the Constitution, their “do as I say and not as I do”, blowing huge sums of taxpayer money on ultra-luxurious vacations, extravagant White House parties for their Hollywood fat-cat supporters.
