Secret Service director to step down, giving Trump chance to select his own security

[Spike]

The head of the Secret Service, a retired presidential detail leader who was given the assignment of shoring up the agency in a period of crisis, is leaving his post, a little more than two years after arriving in one of Washington's toughest jobs.

Joseph P. Clancy, whom President Barack Obama summoned back from the private sector in late 2014 amid a string of security breaches and employee misconduct in the agency, said it's now time to retire for good. He alerted the White House last week of his plans to step down March 4, giving President Trump the chance to select his own security chief.

Clancy, the former head of Obama's protective detail, steered the Secret Service as it strained to shoulder a heavy workload with the lowest number of employees in a decade. At one point, the agency had 500 fewer people on staff than it was authorized to hire.

With all of the leftist dickbags making threats left and right I'd retire too. Those guys are going to be working OT.

Yeah sure that's why he came back to work for Obama.

Maybe it's because the office of POTUS is now officially a joke.
