Trump sucked out all the SS budget with his golfings and staying in overpriced Trump properties.
This is the relevant part of the article:
“That is why on several occasions, the agency has sent agents to train at an 80 percent-scale mock White House in Atlanta, built as a movie set by the filmmaker Tyler Perry. That was built in four months.”
Nothing more than that in the article. It is really just one part of the overall story about all the problems the secret service is having. So the point us they are undermining funded?
80 percent-scale mock White House
I’m confused about this part. Does that mean it’s in basic outline correctly-sized but only has 80% as many rooms…
…or that the layout is exactly the same as the original, but everything is 20% smaller? Because then you’ve got issues with all the agents feeling like they’re seven feet tall.
While I do admit that the latter option is much funnier, it’s probably the former. That or they built all the above-ground rooms perfectly to scale, but didn’t know the exact layout of the service/security tunnels? Idk, but that is definitely an odd choice of wording
I think they’re funded just fine, but recent events have created some unusual expenditures for the SS.
Uh, they are called the USSS, for reasons.
Yes, the United States Schutzstaffel.
You’re likely hitting a point where the level of protection is very expensive yet spending the money isn’t politically popular. That Trump has had multiple attempts on his life recently and there hasn’t been an increase in funding speaks to the lack of political will.
Remember the house is in recess so they can campaign. Every attempt on Trump’s life is like free ad time for the GOP. They won’t even come back in session for for hurricane relief funding.
If Madea invades Washington we will be prepared.
The set from Medea goes to Washington?
The Oval, according to architectural digest
Not the sets from The West Wing?
That’s a warner brothers property, those sets are long gone.
Got a non paywall link?

It opened without a paywall for me, so I assumed it didn’t have a paywall. That said, I posted an archive link under it a while ago.
Why in the hell would you come out swinging at OP like that? Chill tf out.
Why in the actual hell would you not know how to bypass a paywall in 2024? Apple user maybe?
