>> here is the problem, here is the choke point in this. the secret service knows what has to be done. you can put double fencing, you can angle the fencing outward so its nearly impossible to scale. you can put more personnel and special weapons teams on the south lawn. >>, but the choke point is, there are interests in the white house, staff interests, maybe not from this administration, but certainly from prior administration that have stopped that because, oh, it doesnt look good. we dont wa...

Agency, at least, recently, dhs, does that ring true? >> i would say the first point not, they are incredibly prepared. morale is horrible. they are spread thin. >> even when you go to the white house and go to pebble beach, you go through white house room, you go through secret service screening, its not hard not to hear them grumbling, bad pay, schedules, we all work a tough schedule sometimes but when you hear it across the board, it does make you wonders, the guys in charge of protecting the...

And reinstates some of the identical policies as the original. consequently it is equally subject to the injunction that we obtained from judge robart on february 3rd. >> the problem for president trump and the administration on the last ban, however, the white house has taken into account all of the concerns regarding that first executive order, they said they worked huard to appease many critics with the new order. the president said hes confident the new version will survive the courts. so it...

Use chaos but same questions and issues that we had before? >> i think we have already seen that. the night it was announced hawaii filed suit. just this week with wikileaks and as you reported the white house jumper, theres pending real national security while they put the energy on fighting this ban. >> you can argue and scaled back from the way they were. you brought up the issue of the white house jumper. he was out in his golf course 35 minutes from the white house, brisk saturday afternoon...

It defies credulity that the system would allow a man with a backpack, up to the portico, a hundred yards from the president of the united states. thats an absurd statement. i love the secret service and love the men and women there, rank and file agents are the best ive met, but the management is an absolute disaster. to put out a statement like that is outrageous. the president, in my humble opinion, is just not safe at the white house anymore because theyre not serious about the security plan...

This is not how the plan is supposed to work and its frustrating having been in the secret service for a long time and how capable the rank and file-- >> its a pretty serious charge to say that secret service does not take white house security seriously. and in that sense, is it so bad, as you say it is, why hasnt the director, who has a responsibility and an oath, why hasnt he testified before congress to the points youre making? i think its important at times like this to sort of have a sense ...
