Susan Crabtree, a national correspondent for RealClear Politics, reporting the details of a Secret Service agent who shot himself in the tush.

Last week, the agency reported that the agent shot himself in the leg while on Jill Biden's protective detail, but it look like they might have been trying to save what's left of his dignity.

Was that the midget who couldn’t find her holster?

Leave Fumbelina alone. She might be a heroine. Apparently she's not Secret Service but a U.S. Marshal who volunteered for the assignment because the Secret Service was so short handed. She put her life at risk when she didn't have to.

She likely wasn't used to the uniform, the holster, etc. Some U.S. Marshals operate in plain clothes with different holsters.

There are NO credible threats against Biden because nobody who dislikes that idiot would want to put him out of his misery.

I dunno. I suspect there are a lot of people who paid for access that didn't get it and now want their money back. I also suspect Hunter Biden owes people money.

He should have just used his flashlight rather than the gun light, why draw a pistol instead of your flashlight.

At least he shot himself, beats the 💩 out of Alec Baldwin. His gun doesn’t need a trigger finger or a light.

Apparently, the USSS has transferred all the DEI hires to the Biden family detail. Not that I think that’s a bad idea...

I could believe that. Apparently the Jao Bai-din administration was screwing with then-candidate Trump to put the brakes on his rallies.

Jill Biden in particular was accused of attending coinciding events just to pull more agents away.

I’m guessing this wasn’t the first time he pulled this move....but you know, law of averages...like drinking and driving....do it enough and eventually it’s gonna catch up. 🤷‍♂️

So... the earlier story was the "the gun fell out" and now it's "he took the gun out".

What's left? "someone else took his gun out"? "he took someone else's gun out"? "someone else took their own gun out"? "the gun was already in the vehicle and he accidently set it off"?

Sounds like they're covering for a Didn't Earn It (DEI) hire.

This whole story is a real pain in the ass. To repeat a friend of mine’s favorite line “well your first mistake was buying a Glock. “

He must enjoy being the butt of the joke.

I figured he'd deliberately shot himself so he wouldn't have to escort Dr. Jill to the off-broadway play "Public Charge." Hillary was there too.

I don’t think this one would do well on a slanted roof.

I must revoke my previous post the agent was not a "DEI' hire. HE OBVIOUSLY is a affirmative action hire using the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) to hire the handicapped.

Like Forest said

No. It was just muscle memory from being so used to walking around holding his gun.

I am sure they specify only DEI hires.
