The scandal involving at least 11 U.S. Secret Service personnel that began Wednesday in Colombia could be much larger than initially reported, a Republican lawmaker said Sunday.

It would be very interesting to know how many of the errant Secret Service agents are Eric Holder's people.

What? the SS is depraved? ick, I remember something you don’t hear much these days that I heard a lot as a child. “Power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely.” This regime is like Caligula. God assist us. Your whisper needs to become louder.

So two committees are already investigating this scandal- overnight- but we are three years into a possibly fraudulent, corrupt, ineligible, criminal presidency and all we hear about that is crickets?

“It would be very interesting to know how many of the errant Secret Service agents are Eric Holder’s people.”

A key piece of this puzzling story that will NEVER be known.

Quite frankly, I’m surprised the FBI still makes available their HIGHLY insightful, but hugely politically incorrect, Crime by Race statistics.

Has been trying to do this from jump.

...the SS guy who told 0bama to his face that he would not take a bullet for him because of his and his family’s comments about Whites.

...the faux guests to 0bama’s feast who were walked in by MO or Jarrett....but had no invitation, and the SS was blamed.

...the stories of people in other countries thinking the US is Black because everyone they saw coming with the 0bamas are Black.

...the stories of MO’s affair and 0bama’s orgies/servicing.

...the 0bama Dead Pool (see Nachum).

On and on and on.

Seems the 'affirmative action' plan infects even the mightiest.
