  • The Open Door
    Julia Pierson resigned as Secret Service director on Wednesday after just a year and a half on the job, following a series of major security lapses that eroded President Obama’s confidence in her ability to run the agency tasked with protecting him.

He had in fact overpowered a Secret Service officer and made it into the East Room before being tackled by an off-duty agent near the Green Room.WP
    "Agents tell me it’s a miracle an assassination has not already occurred. In typical Washington fashion, nothing gets reformed until a disaster happens.
