I didn't realize until I heard on tonight's news that the person actually got in the White House. Now, that is an entire different story!

When I still worked in DC, the Secret Service wanted to close down a large area around the White House. Their original plan was rejected but, a scaled down version of the plan was implemented. Many of the streets around the White House are now closed off.

Its hard to believe that someone jumped the fence and was able to enter the White House.

Yes, this is the second incident in a week. This guy just walked right in the front door of the White House!

At no time should any unauthorized intrusion be allowed to not only reach the front doors, but gain entrance.

So yes the SS should come under criticism for this happening.

There should be NO WAY for someone to get to the door after scaling the fence. The alarms or notifications obviously did not work or were not responded to appropriately.



Just think about an ISIS bomber getting into the front door and pushing the button.



Yes somebody has significant explaining to do. Now let's wait and see if the media will keep us informed as to the progress or whether it, like many stories, get choked off and disappears from sight.

Agree. And another incident today when someone in a car tried to get through a gate.

Maybe the SS thought they were just filming another movie. There have been a few recently.

Oh, yeah, I'm sure that's it!

This is bad. It could have a been a trial run, scoping out the security systems in place.

In all my life I don't remember anybody getting inside that fence, much less into the W.H.

Maybe the doorbell didn't work.

More often than you would ever think:

what these reported incidents do is inform those who would have a deadly force goal to accomplish just how far one can get without being taken down.

They need not be connected to these recent entries but do become benefactors of the tolerance allowed!!
