Secret Service staff to go on a three-day paid vacation at Disney World for an LGBTQ ‘summit'
2024-09-28
[AT] Priorities
While the Secret Service (as an agency) clearly isn’t willing to die on a hill for President Trump’s protection (or apparently RFK Jr.’s), the hill it will die on is that of the Pride flag.

From an item at Fox News—not the Babylon Bee—comes a truly absurd story: The agency will be sending staff members to Disney World in Orlando, Florida, where they will participate in the “Out and Equal Workplace Summit” on a de facto three-day paid vacation. As Fox reports, the conference “includes breakout sessions, a gala and various events aimed at promoting LGBTQ diversity in the workplace.”

Who approved this abomination? Disgraced director Kimberly Cheatle? Acting director Ronald Rowe? I’d like names, and obviously some accountability (fat chance).

But wait, hasn’t the agency been telling the American people it “lacks the resources” to properly protect President Trump, which is why he’s been deciseconds and minutes from death on at least two known occasions (respectively) in the last several months? So the Secret Service ostensibly doesn’t have the funding to protect President Trump, but it does have the money to send its staff to an LGBTQ-people-in-the-workplace conference at an notoriously expensive amusement park—okay.

While Fox stressed that this is a trip for Secret Service staff and not the agents themselves, an agency spokesman revealed that the staff members set to attend are those “responsible for the implementation of federal special emphasis programs” — ergo, this will certainly have an effect on the efficacy and competency of the agents. Seriously, they may as well have just sent the agents themselves since a gayer and woker workforce is going to be the end result anyway.

#4  But Trump had to move an outdoor rally inside because the Sevret Service doesn't have enough agents to guard him.
