They had me at “Zionist Cabal”.

A new conspiracy video claims the Secret Service assigned a shapeshifting alien to President Obama’s security detail, but the White House dismisses the claim, adding that even if they did have such a program, it would likely be cut due to the sequester.

The video’s narrator claims that an agent guarding Obama during his March 4 speech to the American Israel Public Affairs Committee “could be a shapeshifter alien humanoid working for the powers that be, caught in a high-definition video during an event of the Zionist cabal.”

“I can’t confirm the claims made in this video, but any alleged program to guard the president with aliens or robots would likely have to be scaled back or eliminated in the sequester,” wrote Caitlin Hayden, chief spokeswoman for the National Security Council. “I’d refer you to the Secret Service or Area 51 for more details.”

Wired notes that this isn’t an explicit denial. So maybe the conspiracy theorist is right and an “ancient extra-terrestrial race” is “pulling the strings of mankind.”

But, but, but…. JOE BIDEN! Via Taegan.

Politico reports the federal government “spent nearly $3.7 million on former presidents last year. That covers a $200,000 pension, compensation and benefits for office staff, and other costs like travel, office space and postage.”

“The costliest former president? George W. Bush, who clocked in at just over $1.3 million. That includes almost $400,000 for 8,000 square feet of office space and $85,000 in telephone costs.”

Quickie- Newt Gingrich Still Has Secret Service Protection

Because he’s still officially a presidential candidate, Newt Gingrich is “likely costing the taxpayers tens of thousands of dollars a day with his Secret Service detail on the campaign trail,” the Daily Caller reports.

Gingrich recently had three people on his personal security detail, though sometimes there are “many more.”

I know in the big picture it’s not much, but it feels very wrong for tax payers to be footing the bill for what is obviously now just a vanity campaign to generate income in the future. Give it up Newt. Via.

DNC video: “Mitt Romney: ‘It’s been fun getting to know Ted Nugent’”

How fun! Willard is getting all buddy-buddy with someone the Secret Service would  like to get to know, too! Maybe they can all be BFF and hang out and stuff.

They better hurry, because soon Willard will deny knowing Ted, and the whole magic moment will be over.

Updated-

Ted Nugent’s threatening remarks about President Obama at the annual National Rifle Association convention in St. Louis have earned him a follow-up conversation with the Secret Service. On Sunday, the singer remarked that “if Barack Obama becomes the president in November again, I will be either be dead or in jail by this time next year.” The Secret Service, which investigates all threats against the President, confirmed to New York Magazine’s Daily Intel blog that they have in fact flagged Nugent’s comment. “We are aware of it, and we’ll conduct an appropriate follow up,” the agent told the magazine.

I wish I could go back in time and stop myself from dancing to all his songs. Really just disgusting. Oh, and before the trolls start “He’s just a washed up rock star, he’s not even associate with the campaign”, Son of Mittens tweeted earlier “Ted Nugent endorsed my dad today! Ted Nugent” How cool is that!”.
