Secret Service Incident In Netherlands Was On Heels Of Car Wreck During Obama’s Miami Trip

As the U.S. Secret Service arrived in the Netherlands last weekend for a presidential trip, managers were already on high alert to avoid any further em­barrassing incidents involving agents.

OF COURSE the agent passed the sobriety test. There was no other possible outcome.
