“The Secret Service is forcing out four of its most senior officials while two others are retiring — the biggest management shake-up at the troubled agency since its director resigned in October after a string of security lapses. The departures will gut much of the Secret Service’s upper management, which has been criticized in recent months by lawmakers and administration officials who say it has fostered a culture of distrust between agency leaders and its rank-and-file and made poor decisions that helped erode the quality of this once elite agency.”

“That threat is embodied in a long-running lawsuit filed by a group of African-American Secret Service agents who allege the agency’s culture is replete with racism. ‘If the black Secret Service agents’ legal claims related to racism in the agency are true, then there is a threat to the president’s security because he is a black man,’ says Matthew Fogg, a retired chief deputy U.S. Marshal who in 1998 won a multimillion-dollar jury verdict in a racial discrimination lawsuit filed against his agency. ‘If they are treating black people differently, then how can that not affect the president?’ Fogg also is party to one of two pending class-action discrimination cases filed by black federal agents against the U.S. Marshals Service.”

I didn’t know about these racial discrimination lawsuits against various governmental departments. Did you? As you may know, there have been a few instances where the Secret Service have clearly “dropped the ball” in their protection of the POTUS, most recently in September, when an intruder was able to climb the fence and enter the White House. [How is that even possible under their watch?] Clearly, these are the types of internal problems that only black U.S. Presidents face. However, these lawsuits expose what some knew all along: even if Obama was elected and made President of the United States of America, he’s still a nigger. Smdh.
