http://www.rawstory.com/2017/08/trumps-lavish-travel-costs-leave-secret-service-too-tapped-out-to-pay-agents/
USA Today reports that the Secret Service can no longer afford to pay hundreds of agents it needs to carry out an expanded protective mission in large part due to the sheer size of President Trumps family and efforts necessary to secure their multiple residences up and down the East Coast.
Secret Service Director Randolph Tex Alles tells USA Today that more than 1,000 of his agents have already hit federally mandated caps for salary and overtime allowances, as they have had to expend significantly more time and resources protecting assorted Trump properties.
In addition to protecting Trump during his weekend jaunts to Mar-a-Lago and his golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey, the Secret Service also must protect the Trump children during their overseas business trips.
The president has a large family, and our responsibility is required in law, Alles explains to USA Today. I cant change that. I have no flexibility.

But the only way to make white or gray hair look blond is lots of yellow tint. That blonde is for young children, natural adults' hair darkens as we age.
This blond is hard to dye to.
He needs a haircut because he's a grown up, and if he's going to dye, he should go with a grown-up color.

(9,426 posts)Beavis and Butthead should pay for their own security, they were not elected to any office. First lady/wfe Ivanka should go home and raise her own kids since she does nothing constructive in the WH. They claimed "money is pouring in from Russia" so use it for protection. What other president had their adult (non working) family members costing taxpayers this much? tRump is the most useless president in this country's history, yet the most costly. Laws will have to be changed to avoid another gop catastrophe like this clown. I imagine Maleria's parents (communists) are also covered by the SS.
