Well 1/2 of that is made up of the uniformed division (guarding the White House proper, the Treasury Dept., Foreign Missions, etc.) and administrative/technical personnel.

So actually 3,200 Special Agents, who also work out of 136 field offices here and abroad and do investigative work (mostly financial crimes - money laundering, identity theft, wire fraud, etc.) as well as the protective detail assignments.

Maybe Rick Perry will lend his little ol' Annie Oakley trooper chick because she would have just busted a cap in his head, inside an elevator with the President, because she's a true fucking patriot.

<i>When a supervisor from the firm providing security at the CDC approached and discovered the agents’ concerns, the contractor was fired on the spot.</i> Another job gone. Thanks a lot, Obama!

I rarely agree with Lawrence O'Donnell entirely, but in this case he's right: every single person involved in every one of these fuckups needs to be fired, today, and replaced by people who actually give a shit whether someone murders our President or not. And if there's one dime missing from the SS due to the sequester, Congress needs to apologize and give it back, with interest, and whoever added the SS to the cuts should be shamed out of office.

hahahahahahaha I said "shame" a member of Congress!

I'll show myself out.
