Joe Biden to have new Secret Service team amid concern about Trump loyalty
Joe Biden is expected to receive Secret Service protection with a new team that is more familiar to him and replacing some agents amid concerns that they may be politically allied with Donald Trump.
In a changing of the guard as well as the man to be guarded at the White House, Bidens security detail will undergo some staffing changes, the Washington Post reported on Thursday.
Several senior Secret Service agents are poised to return to the president-elects protection team and Biden knows these agents well because they guarded him and his family during his time as vice-president, according to the article, echoed in a report by CNN, citing a law enforcement source.
Re-assignments and promotions are common during transition periods between presidential administrations and are meant to increase comfort and trust between a president-elect and his security team, who shadow the commander-in-chief closely, including during private moments and sensitive discussions.

It is pretty insulting to Biden to suggest that his team is not up to the job.
