US Secret Service agents sent home after drunk assault report in South Korea.

1
Biden is visiting South Korea starting today.
Two U.S. Secret Service agents who were working on Joe Biden's trip to Asia are being sent home after one was accused of drunkenly assaulting a South Korean the day before the president arrived in Seoul, officials said.

A Yongsan district police official told Reuters that one of the agents was arrested in the early hours of Thursday after getting into a fight over a taxi.
In 2012, 11 Secret Service agents were sent home from Colombia for alleged "misconduct" involving disputes with prostitutes before a visit by then-President Barack Obama.

There will be those that give excuses such as the pressure of the job etc. You can wonder how many of the altercations are done by foreign agents of countries that don’t like us or are wanting to get information.

Secret Service spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said in a statement that an incident occurred while the employees were not on duty, and that it “may constitute potential policy violation.” The employees have been put on administrative leave, he said.

“We have strict protocols and policies for all our employees, and we hold ourselves to the highest professional standards,” Guglielmi said. He added there has been no impact on Biden’s trip, during which the president will meet with the leaders of South Korea and Japan to discuss how to counter China’s influence.
The official familiar with the incident said the employees involved are an agent and a tactical security specialist. Both are sworn law enforcement officers with badges and firearms, and they arrived in Seoul ahead of Biden to coordinate with his protective detail.
The agency’s leaders say the Secret Service has righted itself and adheres to high professional standards. But some current and former agents have said a damaging culture persists, with agents treating foreign trips as perks of a highly demanding job and supervisors sometimes taking a “boys will be boys” attitude toward misconduct.

I'm hopeful Biden rejoins TPP at end of this excursion. And I repeat, any agents hired or that favor turd should be relieved of duty and fucked over like the Vindman's were done under turd.
