Secret Service was established in 1865 to combat counterfeiting.
The agency’s role has expanded over time, now including protection of the President and other key figures.
While their main focus is on investigating financial crime, they also protect the President, their families and past Presidents.
So they have to protect the Biden crime family AND investigate financial crime. Sounds like a conflict of interest.

Even if a former President is convicted of a crime, their Secret Service protection remains intact.
Makes you wonder about the fate of Obama.

The current USSS still investigates counterfeiting, but also examines a broader range of potential financial crimes, including credit card fraud and cybercrimes. Because of its expertise, the USSS provides forensic support for criminal investigations in a number of areas including support for the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children…
