US Secret Service faces staffing crisis as veterans leave over unpaid overtime and stress

US Secret Service news

The US Secret Service is grappling with a major staffing crisis, losing nearly 20% of its veteran agents as overwork, unpaid overtime, and inadequate resources strain the agency.

According to a report by The New York Times, the Secret Service entered 2024 with a depleted workforce, lacking the latest technology and struggling to keep up with growing security demands.

The resignation of Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle in July followed a near-fatal assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump during a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, which exposed serious weaknesses in the agency’s readiness.

The agency’s troubles stem largely from an “exodus of the best-trained people,” with 1,400 out of 7,800 agents leaving in the past two years, the largest loss in two decades.

Veterans cited crushing overtime, often unpaid due to federal salary caps, as the primary reason for departing.

Despite efforts to boost its workforce, the Secret Service faces challenges training new hires and is operating with outdated equipment. A scheme to rehire retired agents backfired, as it encouraged early retirements without addressing the field staff shortages.

  1. Good riddance, I say…they are part of the Deep State and operate with the ‘accident-on-purpose’ mindset, especially when it comes to successful assassinations.
    They are nothing more than salaried piss-ants with badges…!
    They’ll jump onto a disabled Veteran once an ‘anonymous’ phone call is made (maybe by one of their own…) and harass the disabled Veteran at work, take pictures thinking they aren’t being noticed, and push their way into the residence and then…QUESTION ONE’S LOYALTY TO THE COUNTRY despite the fact that the ‘Loyalty’ resulted in a disability as a result of prolonged service to the country, the compromised United States of Israel.
    Then, one sees the destruction of property, break-ins, gaslighting, and denial of gainful employment after they visit employers and slander the …’subject’…
    The term itself ‘subject’ reflects who monetarily manages the U.S.; it’s the J3wi$h-Zionist ‘City of London’, where they are ‘His Majesty’s ‘subjects’…so the U.S. is a part of the U.K. under the Agreements of International Commerce, and Corporate Admiralty Law.
    Israel thus runs both the U.S. and the U.K. (Starmers wife is a J3w3$$…).
    Are things becoming clearer now???
    The USSS and ALL of the ‘Alphabet Agencies’ are communist-based in their doctrines, and are NOT the friend of any American wherever they may be.
    Perhaps it has to do with being labeled a ‘potential terrorist’ based upon being a Veteran, or a ‘political miscreant’.
    One friend of mine comes from a lower to middle-ground political family, and he has a 642 page FBI file AND a USSS file, going back to when he was four years old!!! He is 66 years old now, and no one in that family has ever been arrested, caused problems, or held radical political views.
    He left the U.S. after 9/11, and moved to an Asian nation. He knew what was coming.
    He has never been back to the U.S., and warned his ‘elected officials’ of what was in the future for the U.S. ie a black communist President, a fixer (Trump) who would be villified at all levels of society and government, and a faux-President who would resume Obama’s ‘World View & Policies’. Civil War, pandemics, World War Three and political upheaval would be in effect by 2026.
    Israel would covertly take over the U.S. and steal as much from the American Taxpayer as it could! That has proven to be 100% accurate!
    Fast forward to modern day, and I’m sure that there have been more pages added to his FBI file based on the current covert communist government in the U.S. which will be going after MAGA / Conservative Republicans with death squads.
    Whenever communism (run by J3wi$h Bolcheviks…) comes to power, the mass graves begin filling-up.
    After all, Komrade Hellary Klinton remarked that Conservative Republican Christians and Right Wingers needed to be “sent to a fun camp.”
    Those ‘Fun Camps’ are FEMA Camps with AI / facial recognition guillotines that are hydraulically-operated.
    FOIA documents revealed that thousands of them are coming out of storage at covert warehouses.
    I wonder what the Uniparty has in store for us…?
    If Jabby is any indications via slow mass murder by injections, the next 2 years will be very interesting.

    • It goes back to the original “treaty” – the Virginia Treaty (1677) which set up trade contracts, and how to move about the land and maintained the Crown as the benefiter. All ties to the English Crown were to be kept from this date forward. Then the 1763 treaty allowed territories to change, but the English Crown maintained authority over the land in regards to commercial ties.
      The English Crown again, maintained its authority over the land, in all commercial aspects, as evidenced by the 1783 treaty, after the American Colonists had Declared their Sovereign Right to Govern themselves, as long as they paid Great Britain, the Monarch, and their Financial Masters royalties, restitutions for using the land itself.
      The colonists would form State Constitutions transferring their rights from the crown charters to “Tribal People” (states), leading to the adoption of the Articles of Confederation to form their “Governmental Structure” which continues their ties to the Crown, compacting themselves to taking over all debts, liabilities, and expenses held by the Monarch, Holy Roman Empire, the British Subjects.
