Screw the missing and exploited minors too! "President Donald Trump’s frequent travel, large family and unusual living situation are apparently weighing heavily on the Secret Service’s budget. The agency recently requested an additional $60 million in spending for fiscal year 2018, according to a Washington Post report on Tuesday. Nearly $27 million of that was to be earmarked for security at the president’s private residence at Trump Tower in New York, where first lady Melania Trump lives with their 11-year-old son. The Secret Service also said it needed another $33 million to cover travel costs incurred by “the president, vice president and other visiting heads of state.” The Office of Management and Budget rejected the request, a source told the Post, which could potentially force the Secret Service to scale back on other operations, like investigations into cyber hacking, counterfeit currency, financial crimes or missing and exploited minors..."
Trump_is_Mentally_fit Posted March 23, 2017 Posted March 23, 2017 I'm surprised (not) no one on here is screaming about how their taxes are being stolen to pay for this guy's lifestyle. Just so puzzling...
unbillievable Posted March 23, 2017 Posted March 23, 2017 Besides counterfeit currency, why is the Secret Service doing any of those other things? Isn't that the FBI's job?

Well according to his recent tax returns, Trump pays alot of taxes so he should be entitled to.... Oh wait, nevermind.

That leads to some very expensive rounds of golf.
boyst Posted March 23, 2017 Posted March 23, 2017 Besides counterfeit currency, why is the Secret Service doing any of those other things? Isn't that the FBI's job?no. It is in the secret service policy that they cover dignitaries. From presidents, house members to heads of foreign states and political contributors. I can't remember currently when this all happened but it is pretty neat and interesting story
