Are we all sure the SS was putting in 110% that day?

I get it - they're pros - but hear me out : Trump.

[-] Prunebutt@slrpnk.net 34 points 1 year ago

The WHAT??

For real: is that how the secret service really is abbreviated? Talk about a Freudian slip...

(And I know that the secret service is older... I think)

[-] GiveMemes@jlai.lu 36 points 1 year ago

Usually people use USSS for this reason

[-] Ragnarok314159@sopuli.xyz 4 points 1 year ago

I always thought the USSS was the GOP.

[-] GiveMemes@jlai.lu 2 points 1 year ago

Well you aint exactly wrong

[-] Maggoty@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Including the Secret Service themselves...

What the Secret Service does in its secrecy: https://www.youtube.com/@USSS_info

[-] Maggoty@lemmy.world 17 points 1 year ago

No, it's USSS. For exactly that reason.

The secret service was established by the Department of the Treasury 159 years ago under the Abraham Lincoln to suppress the counterfeiting of currency, which is still their primary mission

Grant expanded them to guarding the president, at least that's what Wild Wild West claims. Still wanna know what they did with the giant spider tank.

They didn't start guarding the president until 1901. So, not Grant.

...but I love how you didn't argue about the giant spider tank.

[-] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

They clearly know what they did with the thing.

"Wild Wild West" was a movie starring Will Smith.

[-] SplashJackson@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 year ago

I thought it was a documentary

[-] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

That was The Fresh Prince of Bel Air

[-] Prunebutt@slrpnk.net 4 points 1 year ago

Umm, not really my point, but thanks, I guess?

[-] FireTower@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

They probably just had a use of force policy that required approval from above to use deadly force before anyone had shot.

[-] Ragnarok314159@sopuli.xyz 8 points 1 year ago

They do, because 99% of the time “that person right there!” is someone trying to take a picture of the president.
