No, this really isn't a security detail.
Why US Marshalls and not SS, capitol police or private security?
Think before speaking ignorance.
So you really think she’s been arrested and they are playing pretendsies with her that she hasn’t been so she can make appearances?
"You can go out there and play Broadway and spend the rest of your life in a cushy cell, or don't listen and get the firing squad on live television"
That's about how that works out.
Regardless, speculation, and improbable, but not impossible
Who are you quoting there?
He was quoting MikeNelson but accidentally clicked on reply under my reply it looks like.
Lol, I replied to the wrong comment. Not a real quote, just how I imagine that scenario being played out. Yes, fantasy, but how I imagine their plea bargains going
US Marshalls do sometimes provide security, but to witnesses and judges. Never heard of them doing this for politicians. Implies one of three things:
- She's a witness to a crime
- She's being arrested / transported
- She does not trust the Capitol Police and/or Secret Service, and has pulled strings to get the Marshals to provide security
None of these situations seem normal of course. Something is up.
UPDATE -- looks like a SS badge. See here:
Not even close, the blonde agent up front right has a badge that is solid blue inside the inner circle with gold emblem inside the solid blue . It is a US Marshall Service badge, the blonde rear right is Capitol Police with solid gold emblem in the inner circle of the badge. Neither of those badges looks remotely like the Secret Service badge.
I saw a post that pointed out they were Capitol Police not US Marshall
