Secret Service Fires Shots Near Home of Treasury Secretary

The Secret Service’s answer to auto theft appears to be to shoot now and ask questions later.

Yet again, the Secret Service reportedly opened fire on suspected auto thieves, this time outside the home of Treasury Secretary Yellen.

If you recall, a similar incident took place outside the home of Joe Biden’s granddaughter.

Shoot Now, Ask Questions Later

Early Tuesday morning, Secret Service agents reportedly confronted a group of people in a sedan who were allegedly scoping cars near Yellen’s home.

The Secret Service stated that agents assigned to Yellen’s protection detail "observed a sedan with multiple occupants who were attempting to open car doors along the street.”

It continued, "As the sedan approached the agent, a confrontation occurred between the agent and the car’s occupants.”

The agent reportedly fired their weapon, but nobody was reportedly struck.

The car then fled the scene.

The Secret Service further stated, "There was no threat to any protectees during this incident and no protectees were harmed.”

I cannot help but point to the irony of this in terms of the lack of outrage by the left over the use of “excessive force” when we all know if a regular police officer opened fire on a suspect who was stealing cars in one of our neighborhoods, they would be slamming the police.

It is also rather amusing that these thieves are either extraordinarily bold or just flat-out stupid.

Secret Service agents don’t exactly blend in on protection details, so ripping off cars when they are present is not exactly a wise career decision for thieves.

One final note… this is far from the first time we have seen reports of Secret Service agents firing their weapons, but why is nobody questioning why these agents are not hitting anything when they fire their weapons?

One thing is for sure, and that is that Trump needs to bring someone else in to run this agency that can rid it of the DEI policies from the previous director and get this agency back on track with its primary mission statement.
