Secret Service Agent Punished Over Leaks on Vance’s Annoying Behavior
A Secret Service agent assigned to protect Vice President JD Vance was placed on administrative leave for allegedly leaking information to the press. The leaks followed reports that Vance's security detail complained about his use of a military helicopter to take his son to a golf lesson at Joint Base Andrews, which agents considered an inappropriate use of government resources. The Secret Service's internal affairs department is reviewing the agent's conduct, with potential administrative or criminal consequences. The article also notes that the Trump administration has intensified efforts to crack down on media leaks, with FBI Director Kash Patel and White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles personally overseeing a probe that has forced officials to hand over phones and issued subpoenas to four New York Times journalists.
