Remember that the Secret Service failed catastrophically at the assassinations of President Kennedy and his brother. At the time, the Secret Service had no women, certainly not in leadership, and made up almost entirely of physically fit men. No fan of DEI, but the failure of the Secret Service may well have been a deliberate standdown, just as happened with the Kennedys.
How would one uncover that chain of command decision- inside Mayorkas’s run DHS. If they were still with Treasury it would be better done. Even so, SS does police work on Counterfeit currency in tandem with the Federal Reserve Bank. Oh how the webs weave to enable to deceive.
So true. The night before the JFK Dallas trip, several SS agents went to a party. Badges. IDs and weapons were lost. They showed up to work hung over. Accident ? Coincidence ?
