WH Staffers did bring hookers to POTUS hotel:SS scandal

[tinydancer]

I may detest the President and I may loathe his policies but I don't want him assassinated.

This outrageous and reckless behavior that was uncovered in Cartagena now reaches the WH despite their earlier denials.

(I'm sure it was just a spontaneous procurement of hookers when it came to the White House staffers though)

White House staffers 'DID bring Colombian hookers back to hotel where president later stayed'

A new report is likely to reveal that White House staffers were involved in the Colombian prostitution scandal, with two members of the president's advance team bringing hookers back to the hotel where he later stayed.

The revelation, if proven true, contradicts the White House's original assertion that none of its staffers had patronized prostitutes in advance of Barack Obama's vision to Cartagena for the Summit of the Americas in April.

The scandal ensnared 13 Secret Service agents, seven Army soldiers, two US Marines and two DEA agents -- all of whom were sent to the resort city to prepare security and communications the week before the president was sent to arrive.

Sorry, TD, but technically, according to your own article, your thread title is a lie.

new report is likely to reveal that White House staffers were involved...

The revelation, if proven true...

Don't sink to the libtards level. It's beneath you.

Oh, c'mon. White House staffers can't bring a hooker back to a hotel the president will be staying at in the future, but a sitting president can get caught lying about getting blowjobs in the Oval Office from a young fat consenting intern? Some folks need to seriously reconsider that goose and gander thing.

White House Could Be Implicated In 2012 Prostitution Scandal...

‘Woefully inadequate’: Lawmakers question White House review of prostitution case
October 09, 2014 ~ While government investigators interviewed hundreds of personnel to get to the bottom of the Secret Service prostitution scandal in Colombia in 2012, congressional Republicans suggest the White House barely lifted a finger to investigate similar allegations involving one of their own.

Rep. Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah, in an interview with Fox News on Thursday, questioned how seriously the White House handled claims that a member of their team may have been “intimately involved with a prostitute.” He said he’s concerned, further, about a “cover-up.” But even as far back as November 2012, in a letter obtained by FoxNews.com, another top Republican pointedly accused the White House of conducting a flimsy review into the allegations. House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman Darrell Issa, R-Calif., charged at the time that documents reviewed by his committee staff showed the White House review was “woefully inadequate.”

Issa, in his Nov. 2, 2012, letter to then-White House Counsel Kathryn Ruemmler, claimed the Secret Service director had given Ruemmler records from the Hotel Hilton Cartagena that “suggested” someone on the White House advance team signed in a 28-year-old female guest. Issa said documents show the guest entered at 12:02 a.m. and left at 9:46 a.m. (This claim appears to align with details reported late Wednesday by The Washington Post, which identified the advance team “volunteer” as Jonathan Dach, then 25, whose father Leslie is a consistent Democratic donor.)

But according to Issa, “the initial White House review” of this incident – before that information was turned over -- “appears to have consisted of talking to one person,” the advance team member in question, who was asked whether he had engaged a prostitute. “Like several Secret Service agents who subsequently failed polygraph tests, the White House staff denied that he had,” Issa wrote. But even after then-Director Mark Sullivan handed over the additional details, Issa said the White House claimed to have simply “re-interviewed the staff member” and interviewed several colleagues, “who vouched for his character.”

By contrast, the Secret Service interviewed “dozens of hotel staff and female foreign nationals,” while the DHS inspector general’s team interviewed 251 Secret Service personnel. The investigation included a review of hotel records, polygraphs and even drug tests, Issa wrote. But Issa claimed there is, by contrast, “no indication” that Ruemmler’s office interviewed hotel staff or the woman said to be involved.

A new report is likely to reveal. WOW!

 

[Bill Angel]

Dan Bongino, a former Secret Service agent who served during the Obama administration, and a Republican candidate for Congress in Maryland, blasted the Obama administration for their “protect the crown approach” on Thursday’s broadcast of “The Real Story” on the Fox News Channel.
Bongino said, “Everybody on the ground knew there was a White House staff member involved in this [the Secret Service prostitution scandal]. Listen, this is a protect the crown approach by this administration, and it has been, frankly, a grotesque pattern of behavior … [the administration] so readily throws the rank-and-file members of the government, including the people who would protect him with their lives, under the bus.” And “they will protect the crown no matter what.”

See Fmr Secret Service Agent Obama Admin Policy Is Protect the Crown

"Protect the Crown" (i.e. Obama)? as opposed to what, "Protect the Clowns" (i.e. those Secret Service Agents involved in the prostitution scandal)?

Protecting the Clowns?

Secret Service prostitution scandal investigator caught in his own hanky-panky...

Report: Official probing Secret Service scandal quits over prostitution incident
October 28, 2014 WASHINGTON — The investigator who led the Homeland Security Department's internal review of a prostitution scandal involving Secret Service agents on assignment in Colombia in 2012 has himself resigned over an incident involving a prostitute in Florida, The New York Times reported.

Current and former department officials say that investigator David Nieland left the government in August after refusing to answer questions from the department's inspector general about the Florida incident, the Times said in an article posted to its website Tuesday night. Nieland has told congressional staffers that he was pressured to leave out of the report on the Secret Service scandal that a White House volunteer had brought a prostitute to his room. However, the congressional staffers and the White House have said that no evidence supported that allegation.

Officials briefed on the Nieland investigation said that in May, sheriff's deputies in Broward County, Florida, saw him entering and leaving a building they had under surveillance as part of a prostitution investigation, the Times reported. Deputies later interviewed a prostitute who identified Nieland in a photograph and said he had paid her for sex, according to the newspaper. Nieland has not been charged. He said in an email that "the allegation is not true" and declined to answer any questions, the newspaper reported. He resigned Aug. 9, citing health problems, and later sent a tweet that his government career had ended, according to the newspaper.

The Hotel Caribe in Cartagena, Colombia, was the site of an incident that touched off a prostitution scandal involving the U.S. military and Secret Service.

A Homeland Security Department spokesman, William O. Hillburg, confirmed to the Times that Nieland had resigned and that officials had become aware of an incident in Florida that involved one of its employees. Under law, no comment could be offered on a specific case, Hillburg said. Thirteen Secret Service agents and officers were implicated in a prostitution scandal that arose from preparations for President Barack Obama's trip in April 2012 to the seaside resort of Cartagena, Colombia. They were accused of carousing with female foreign nationals at a hotel where they were staying before Obama's arrival. Nine of the officers and agents eventually left the agency — resigned, forced out or retired.

Nieland, the head of the inspector general's Miami office at the time, led the Homeland Security Department investigation into how the Secret Service handled the scandal. He later told staff members of a Senate Homeland Security subcommittee that he had been asked to delete derogatory information from the 65-page public report issued in September 2012 because it was potentially damaging to the administration two months ahead of the November election, the Times reported. Nieland told the Senate staffers that the deleted information was that a volunteer member of the White House advance team in Cartagena also had a prostitute in his room, the newspaper said. The subcommittee later said that it had not found any evidence to substantiate that claim. The White House said it had not intervened in the report's preparation and that it had not found evidence to support the allegation against the volunteer, the Times reported.
