Nothing is absolute. There are shady folks in every organization.

Then the answer to my question is yes, you believe the Secret Service is more a danger to the president than violent armed extremists. That they are a deeply flawed and dangerous organization that can not be trusted. It's quite a charge and I'll be looking for heads to roll soon and indictments to start flying... Didn't their leader just resign or retire or get fired or something? Is he under suspicion or is he one of the good guys? They are acting like they're back to being the "Pinkerton Men" they used to be back when summary execution of union workers was considered just another day on the job.

That's a far cry from the crips and bloods comment. I would have said he's better off in the hands of Sadat's security team. (as long he avoids parades) Instead I thought I'd keep it "MADE IN USA"

Hyperbole, look it up.
But how am I to imply which of your statements are meant to be taken seriously and which are sarcasm? I couldn't tell if your voice was hardened by sarcasm, I'm quite deaf.

Anyway, Presidents have trusted the Secret Service to protect them since time immaterial...
I believe they still can and those poor bastards that had to serve under Trump deserve medals! Even if they fell for the con. What a madhouse that must have been, like nothing they ever trained for.

What tipped Mother's husband off is that the guy driving the car was not a part of Pence's detail. He was Secret Service, but not a part of Pence's Team. How much did Chuck Grassley know? Grassley suggests he may preside over Senate debate on Electoral College votesNow, why on earth would Chuck Grassley suggest that on J5?!? Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, said he would preside over the U.S. Senate debate surrounding disputes of the 2020 election results if Vice President Mike Pence does not show up. Why would Mike not show up? Is it because he would be swinging from a gallows out-front, or because he would be driven-off.

Oh snap!  The U.S. Secret Service has been subpoenaed by the House Select Committee Investigating the Jan. 6 Attack on the U.S. Capitol. Chair Benny Thompson (D-MS) sent a letter to Secret Service Director James Murray. Thompson wrote, “The Select Committee has been informed that the USSS erased text messages from January 5 and 6, 2021 as part of a ‘device-replacement program.’ In a statement issued July 14, 2022, the USSS stated that it ‘began to reset its mobile phones to factory settings as part of a pre-planned, three-month system migration. In that process, data resident on some phones was lost.’ However, according to that USSS statement, ‘none of the texts it [DHS Office of Inspector General] was seeking had been lost in the migration.’" - Raw Story...and the Secret Service would have gotten away with it too, if it weren't for those meddling kids and their dog! Ruh-roh
