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 10 months ago

Usually people use USSS for this reason

[-] Ragnarok314159@sopuli.xyz 4 points 10 months ago

I always thought the USSS was the GOP.

Well you aint exactly wrong

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

[-] Maggoty@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Including the Secret Service themselves...

[-] Maggoty@lemmy.world 17 points 10 months 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 10 months ago

They clearly know what they did with the thing.

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

[-] SplashJackson@lemmy.ca 4 points 10 months ago

I thought it was a documentary

[-] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

That was The Fresh Prince of Bel Air

[-] Prunebutt@slrpnk.net 4 points 10 months ago

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