Someone is attempting to compromise the Secret Service (or further compromise it).
There are Republicans who want the GOP to elect Donald Trump Speaker of the House, if they obtain a majority in the mid-terms.
Think about that.

(135,902 posts)1. From 12/31/20 - Joe Biden to have new Secret Service team amid concern about Trump loyalty
Joe Biden is expected to receive Secret Service protection with a new team that is more familiar to him and replacing some agents amid concerns that they may be politically allied with Donald Trump.
Several senior Secret Service agents are poised to return to the president-elects protection team and Biden knows these agents well because they guarded him and his family during his time as vice-president, according to the article, echoed in a report by CNN, citing a law enforcement source.
Although staffing changes are typical, several incidents reportedly contributed to the heightened concerns from Bidens allies that some agents and officers might be loyal to Trump.
Some members of the presidents detail reportedly urged their colleagues not to wear masks during trips, for example despite the federal governments official guidance on Covid-19 as Trump himself disparaged mask-wearing and held out for months before being seen wearing one in public.
