Ex-Secret Service agent says management has increased in agency over years while workers leave

Former Secret Service officer Gary Byrne said Thursday that over the years, management of the Secret Service has increased while employees have left in droves. 

"The one thing it does do right is it protects its name, the Secret Service," Byrne said on a "Just the News, No Noise" TV show special with AMAC. "And each year it gets bigger and bigger [with] more management and less workers."

Byrne is a former Secret Service officer and the author of a book titled "Secrets of the Secret Service: The History and Uncertain Future of the U.S. Secret Service."

The Secret Service has been under scrutiny the past month due to the security failures at a rally in Butler County, Pennsylvania, where former President Donald Trump was shot. 

Byrne explained that the agency is very low in manpower due to bad employee treatment.

"They always keep expanding their responsibilities and not their manpower," he explained. "And they end up treating their employees so bad ... that they leave in droves."

Byrne added that the attempted assassination occurred because of incompetence of the Secret Service.
