Secret Service Mismanaging Funds, Leaving Homeland Security Agents Out to Dry, Whistleblower Claims

The Secret Service has badly mismanaged taxpayer dollars to the point that agents aren’t being reimbursed after traveling on assignment with little advance notice, according to a whistleblower who came forward to Senator Chuck Grassley (R., Iowa).

Grassley sent a letter Wednesday to government officials, including Department of Homeland Security secretary Alejandro Mayorkas and acting Secret Service director Ron Rowe, asking them to turn over records related to the Secret Service’s alleged inability to reimburse Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) agents for assignments to accompany Secret Service personnel in their protective work.
