BREAKING: Randolph 'Tex' Alles, director of the US Secret Service, is leaving his position, PeteWilliamsNBC reports, as departures of US Dept. of Homeland Security leaders continue.
Alles was tapped by Trump in April 2017 to lead the agency and was the first director in at least 100 years not to come from the agency's ranks, according to The New York Times.
He told USA Today in a 2017 interview that the agency's funding problems were partly caused by the president's large family and their multiple, oft-visited Trump properties both in the U.S. and overseas."The president has a large family, and our responsibility is required in law,'' Alles told the newspaper."I can't change that. I have no flexibility.''
Meanwhile, Trump may remove or reassign Claire Grady from her current role as acting Deputy Secretary of Homeland Security, in order to install Kevin McAleenan, the current commissioner of U.S. Customs and Border Protection, as the Acting Secretary for DHS, according to three administration officials.
