Beginners Guide to Fixing the Secret Service:
-Mandatory monthly requalifications for both pistol and long gun courses in addition to mandatory monthly physical fitness testing.
-All qualification metrics should be the same for male and female agents. USSS protectee’s heights and weights don’t change for male versus female agents, so neither should the standards.
-Security assets should be allocated based on threat levels, not titles. Assassins don’t care about titles, they care about death.
-Merge the agent and Uniformed Division Special Operations teams. Agents can’t currently act as dog handlers or Counter-Sniper Officers. And UD officers cannot serve on the Counter Assault Team. This is a meaningless obstacle.
-Turn over the investigation functions of the Secret Service to other federal agencies and have the Field Offices focus exclusively on threat mitigation, training, protective intelligence and physical protection.
-Scrap all cancerous DEI initiatives and salary enhancements for supervisors. Merit should be the ONLY guiding principle when it involves the lives of the country’s critical political figures.
Vance Boelter, the suspect in the shooting of Minnesota lawmakers and their spouses, wrote a letter addressed to the FBI claiming that Gov. Tim Walz, D-Minn., had told him to kill U.S. Sen. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn., so that Walz could run for her seat in the U.S. Senate, according to a report citing sources.
