Julia Pierson has resigned after two security breaches in the white house. The first was when an Atlanta security guard rode in an elevator with the president and he had a gun. This violated the rule that you can’t have a weapon near the president without special permission. The second one was when Omar Gonzalez jumped the fence and came into the white house and he had a knife. Now the agency has picked a new leader by the name of Joseph Clancy.
I think that it was a good thing of her to resign because she said “we were at a point where it was going to be hard for the department and president to have confidence in the Secret Service leadership if I didn’t step down.” I’m glad that the president is getting better security and he can focus on other things… Like not getting killed and the crisis with ISIS. My friend Toby Tobias thought that it was a good thing that she resigned because people would just keep heckling her and she would eventually get fired because of the media. The author was unbiased.
