After Secret Service flap, Biden tax form lists new rental income - Washington Times
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
U.S. Secret Service agents walk around the Convention Center in Cartagena, Colombia.
Amazingly, this story came to light because one of the prostitutes complained to the police she wasn’t paid! The police alerted the State Department, which alerted the White House, which told the Secret Service. Stiffing prostitutes? Unwise. If you’re guarding a President? Priceless.
Joe Biden reported earning more than $12,000 in rental income last year, months after the White House acknowledged that the U.S. Secret Service was paying rent to the vice president so that agents could stay in a cottage on his property in Delaware.
Another version of the same story...
The agency paid Biden $20,900 to host agents on his property -- for his protection, reports Keith Koffler, who runs the White House Dossier website. The rent, which has been paid in past years, was for a “cottage” on Biden's property.
Another version...
The controversy also expanded to the U.S. military, which announced five service members staying at the same hotel as the agents in Colombia may have been involved in misconduct as well. They were confined to their quarters in Colombia and ordered not to have contact with others.
It’s an appalling story, an embarrassment to an agency self-described as “one of the most elite law enforcement organizations in the world".
Comment......Wow ...Talk about what Obama doesn't need right now...It will be interesting to see how much they can sweep under the rug...I can see the damage control working overtime...Who was the supervisor and his immediate supervisor....Can't you hear those idiots trying to explain this away? The bottom line here is, this is unheard of and disgraceful. Sort of makes the United States a laughing stock of the world...Gives new meaning to the phrase "opening a new can of worms"......
