President Donald Trump has chosen a "career member" of the Secret Service to be its new director starting in May, White House press secretary Sarah Sanders announced Monday afternoon.

Sanders' announcement of the selection of James Murray followed the news that Trump was removing the current director of the Secret Service, Randolph "Tex" Alles, amid a shakeup at the Department of Homeland Security. In her statement announcing the move, Sanders described Murray as "a career member" of the US Secret Service.

Looks like a solid pick. He has done stints in the field and worked his way up through the ranks. That’s how respect is gained with subordinates.

I daresay Dan is making a fair bit of coin in his current gig. Going back to the USSS would be a considerable pay cut

Good idea but I think Bongino is valuable right where he is.

That is utterly unacceptable here in the swamp. He probably knows what he is doing, which sets a really bad example.

No doubt James Murray knows exactly what he is doing and I am sure he came highly and widely recommended.

The gators in the swamp very likely now have good reason to believe Trump knows what he is doing as well. The cash-heavy oriental woman who just happened to be carrying a Chinese passport and lots of electronic snooping gear looks a lot like a Richard Marcinko-type operation. If so, we will never know just how much of any network got burned - but the swamp knows.

Firing more inept bureaucrats like these on a weekly basis will gain Trump 5% in the polls in less then a year.

Maybe not such a good idea:
