No guns in that part of the prison.
El Chapo was known for his elaborate tunnel escapes.
I think you just stumbled upon a great idea for an animated sitcom that lasts about two seasons on Fox.
Every week the secret service finds another way to try to escape.
Make a show about Trump in prison and never show him in the show. Just the shenanigans of his secret service guys living in prison.
What's this about Pence? I don't remember this
During the Jan6 riot, the Secret Service tried to get Mike Pence into a car with agents that Pence didn’t recognize. The worry was that the agents were either rogue, or working directly for Trump.
Either way, Pence refused to get into the car because he knew he had to certify the election, which meant he had to stay in the building. His worry was that rogue agents (or agents taking orders from Trump) would spirit him away and prevent him from certifying the results.
Oh. Thanks for informing me.
