The United States Secret Service is under the microscope, yet again. Reports revealed this week some of the agents protecting Vice President Kamala Harris might have lied about the cause of an accident involving the vice president’s motorcade.

The Washington Post reports the one-car accident happened Monday on a closed road in D.C. The highly trained government agent, charged with the protection of the Vice President of the United States of America, “over-corrected” while driving, hit the curb and blew a tire.

No one was hurt in the crash, but the vice president had to be transferred to another vehicle before being whisked-away to the White House. While the accident is bad enough, the situation is made worse by reports the agents on scene initially said a mechanical failure led to the accident, and not driver error.

The accident happened Monday morning, by Monday afternoon Secret Service Director Kim Cheatle found out agents on scene were not truthful in their initial security alert. This is just the latest black eye for the Secret Service which has a history of covering up agency missteps.

There are the deleted Jan. 6 text messages between agents assigned to then-President Donald Trump. There were at least two incidents of armed men attacking the White House in 2011 and 2014. And who could forget the Colombian prostitute scandal of 2012?

Director Cheatle, who’s only been on the job for about a month, was reportedly disturbed by the inaccuracy of the initial accident alert from Monday’s crash, and was relieved to get the fuller account later in the day.
