U.S. Secret Service Going Broke Due to Trump

Description

According to USA Today, due to Donald Trump's constant travel schedule, over 1,000 agents for the U.S. Secret Service have already hit their salary and overtime caps for the entire year. The paper says this is due to Trump’s decision to split time between multiple residences and the White House as well as vacation frequently, with each of the trips costing a small fortune. Trump's administration has also placed 42 people under Secret Service protection, 18 of which are family members. The issue is said to be so serious that Secret Service Director Randolph Alles has begun discussions with US lawmakers to raise salary and overtime cap for agents.
