Secret Service agents were outraged last year by the White House’s attempt to downplay bite injuries caused by then-first dog Major — even trying to get President Biden to personally pay for a damaged coat, newly released documents show.
Secret Service leaders also sought to keep attack details out of official paperwork — at one point rejecting an agent’s “excessively detailed” account to avoid upsetting the first family — after Major bit agents on eight consecutive days.
The records, released in response to a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit by Judicial Watch, show that attacks occurred both earlier and later than previously known.
They also show internal discord at the Secret Service, which has been embroiled since last week in a bizarre infiltration scandal that involves at least four agents.
White House press secretary Jen Psaki acknowledged just one biting incident at a briefing on March 9, 2021, saying that one day earlier, “the first family’s younger dog, Major, was surprised by an unfamiliar person and reacted in a way that resulted in a minor injury to the individual.”
The March 8 bite actually was the final attack in an eight-day streak and the injured agent — whose injuries were categorized as “severe” by a colleague — fumed about Psaki’s spin.
“NO I didn’t surprise the dog doing my job by being at [redacted] as the press secretary just said! Now I’m pissed,” the agent wrote to a co-worker.

Can they strike? That would be fun.
“excessively detailed”
What were the details which were considered “excessive” I wonder.

Biden Dog Attack Scandal!
they could bring in more afghanis as scabs,..
The agents need to learn that the Bidens are royalty—and Secret Service agents are their slaves.
The royal dogs can bite anyone they want to....
The SS should have just shot the dog, there’s no way it would work out well for Biden, and it would never work out well for the SS no mater what they did, or didn’t do.
“Can they strike?”
The one thing you can’t do when you work for the fed gov.
Ya’ll didn’t want “mean” tweets, so deal with it.
Wait till Joek starts biting Secret Service agents.
...internal discord at the Secret Service, which has been embroiled since last week in a bizarre infiltration scandal that involves at least four agents.
Yes, funny how that just fell into the media memory hole, isn't it? No charges and the spies just sort of disappeared. The Bidenistas don't even care if somebody asks because nobody's answering.
Should have called the local dogcatcher and let them deal with it. “Possible Rabid Dog...could you check??”....and hope that some trigger happy cop accompanied him or her to dispatch the dangerous dog.
Who cares?
Democrats think dogs are magical, angelic creatures that need no training. Only Republicans should own dogs.
“White House press secretary Jen Psaki acknowledged just one biting incident at a briefing on March 9, 2021”
These people lie even when they don’t have to....what make us think they wouldn’t lie about this.
>>What were the details which were considered “excessive” I wonder.<<
Anything beyond “Major bit me. I was scratched.”
“Caligula certainly thought so but the Praetorian Guard had the last laugh.”
The US similarities to Ancient Rome are strong in many ways.
That day make come.
