Joe Biden is expected to receive Secret Service protection with a new team that is more familiar to him and replacing some agents amid concerns that they may be politically allied with Donald Trump.
In a changing of the guard as well as the man to be guarded at the White House, Biden’s security detail will undergo some staffing changes, the Washington Post reported on Thursday.
Several “senior” Secret Service agents are poised to return to the president-elect’s protection team and Biden knows these agents well because they guarded him and his family during his time as vice-president, according to the article, echoed in a report by CNN, citing a law enforcement source.
Re-assignments and promotions are common during transition periods between presidential administrations and are meant to increase comfort and trust between a president-elect and his security team, who shadow the commander-in-chief closely, including during private moments and sensitive discussions.
Although staffing changes are typical, several incidents reportedly contributed to the heightened concerns from Biden’s allies that some agents and officers might be loyal to Trump.
Some members of the president’s detail reportedly urged their colleagues not to wear masks during trips, for example – despite the federal government’s official guidance on Covid-19 – as Trump himself disparaged mask-wearing and held out for months before being seen wearing one in public.

I thought they were all “career” types who do not favor sides, that is what they tell us all the time.
Cough....Ceaușescu....cough
Joe, you got it all wrong. The majority of these Secret Servicemen are your kind of people.
This kind of purging is what Trump should have done. Too late now.
Fake News.

They have to make up “something” LOL!
Joe wants to vette the wives of his security detail. Allegedly there was a fight at the Naval Observatory when Joe got hand-sy with a SS Agent’s wife at a party.
Just because you’re paranoid doesn’t mean they aren’t all out to get you...
Cut the head off the snake...
Yeah just like the Secret Service detail during the Obama years..Biden hit on one of the secret service agents wives, the agent punched Biden in the face, never said a word about it, cause ya know, gotta protect those Dems
That is a very stupid thing to say.
Trump treated his Secret Service personnel very well.
They should wear blue helmets to signify their loyalty.
