Be that as it may, those comments, usually in a book, were made by former agents, not current agents. Never mind the violations of <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Hatch_Act_of_1939\" target=\"_blank\">the Hatch Act<\/a>, Ms. O\u2019Grady\u2019s statements, in my opinion, render her not only unfit to continue as a member of the Secret Service, but potentially an actual threat to the safety of President Trump.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>The Department of Homeland Security&#8217;s Office of the Inspector General, which investigates agency complaints of misbehavior, received a complaint about O&#8217;Grady&#8217;s Facebook posts on Oct. 11, a source said.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It seems to me that the Department of Homeland Security really has no choice in this matter. Ms. O\u2019Grady, at the very least, must be removed as a Secret Service Agent. When there is a threat against the President, there can be no hesitation. She has announced that she would, unlike Agent McCarthy, step aside and let the bullet hit the president. I don\u2019t know if she should be terminated from government employment, but she can no longer be trusted in her current position.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">***UPDATE***<\/h2>\n<p>Well now, that didn&#8217;t take long. Agent Kelly O&#8217;Grady has been suspended with pay according to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/secret-service-puts-agent-who-decried-taking-a-bullet-for-trump-on-paid-leave\/article\/2613210\" target=\"_blank\">the Washington Examiner<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>The Secret Service has placed the senior special agent who wrote <a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/senior-secret-service-agent-suggests-she-wouldnt-take-a-bullet-for-trump\/article\/2612814\" target=\"_blank\">a Facebook post decrying &#8220;taking a bullet&#8221; for Trump<\/a> on administrative leave while the agency investigates her social media activities. An agency spokeswoman on Friday afternoon informed the <em>Washington Examiner<\/em> of the management action, which takes the agent off the job with pay while the investigation proceeds.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Some people may argue that O&#8217;Grady is still being paid, however, she is considered innocent until proven a complete and utter idiot.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>The move is a sign that the agency is taking the investigation against Kerry O&#8217;Grady, the agent who wrote the Facebook post, seriously. Critics, however, question why it took the agency three months and a report in the <em>Washington Examiner<\/em> earlier this week for it to initiate the probe.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>Joseph Clancy, the director of the Secret Service, sent an email to all employees Wednesday night notifying them of the formal probe, and asking them for &#8220;patience while the RES, (Office of Professional Responsibility), conducts their investigation.&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It may take a month or so, but I suspect that Agent Kelly O&#8217;Grady will soon be known as &#8220;Former&#8221; Agent Kelly O&#8217;Grady. For starters, it&#8217;s obvious that she isn&#8217;t smart enough to be a federal agent. Posting something like &#8220;I won&#8217;t take a bullet&#8221; when that is exactly her job indicates she is unfit for her position.<\/p>\n<p>Thatisall<\/p>\n<p><i><b>~The Angry Webmaster~<\/b><\/i><\/p>\n<p>[yasr_visitor_votes size=&#8221;large&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"border-radius: 2px; text-indent: 20px; width: auto; padding: 0px 4px 0px 0px; text-align: center; font: bold 11px\/20px 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,sans-serif; color: #ffffff; background: #bd081c no-repeat scroll 3px 50% \/ 14px 14px; position: absolute; opacity: 1; z-index: 8675309; display: none; cursor: pointer;\">Save<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"border-radius: 2px; text-indent: 20px; width: auto; padding: 0px 4px 0px 0px; text-align: center; font: bold 11px\/20px 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,sans-serif; color: #ffffff; background: #bd081c no-repeat scroll 3px 50% \/ 14px 14px; position: absolute; opacity: 1; z-index: 8675309; display: none; cursor: pointer;\">Save<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"border-radius: 2px; text-indent: 20px; width: auto; padding: 0px 4px 0px 0px; text-align: center; font: bold 11px\/20px 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,sans-serif; color: #ffffff; background: #bd081c  no-repeat scroll 3px 50% \/ 14px 14px; position: absolute; opacity: 1; z-index: 8675309; display: none; cursor: pointer; top: 2275px; left: 241px;\">Save<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Good day all.
