Wonder how many others have already taken a little sumthin sumthin on the sly.

The SS agents didn't appear to think anything about accepting expensive gifts.

Wtf were they after? What was their plan? Who put up the money?
You don't just drop $100k+ on secret service agents to play secret federal agent.
They had to have a long term plan. They had to have financing.
Was it to penetrate the ss and get to potus/vpotus? Maybe after the gop takes the house?
This isn't just some street cop corruption.
What was the plan? Why isn't anyone asking?
