‘Sickened’ By Hillary Clinton’s Character, Former Secret Service Agent Pens Tell-All Book

Describing himself as “sickened” by Hillary Clinton’s character, a former Secret Service Agent has penned a tell-all book outlining her abhorrent behavior. Gary Byrne, a 29-year veteran of the military and federal law enforcement, alleges that Ms. Clinton’s personality left staff members at the White House terrified of her outbursts.

His book, entitled Crisis Of Character: A White House Secret Service Officer Discloses His Firsthand Experience With Hillary, Bill, And How They Operate, is due to be released on June 28, 2016. Pre-orders have been staggering, already placing it at No. 1 on the New York Times Bestseller List. Exposes on the Clintons and their scandals have been written before, but this one stands apart in that it is not based on hearsay but rather on first-hand experience. Byrne claims Ms. Clinton had erratic and violent mood swings that would take her from being friendly one moment and then raging at staff members or her husband the next.

White House staffers allegedly worked carefully to avoid triggering one of the first lady’s outbursts, uncertain of what her mood or behavior might be from one moment to the next, says a report from Page Six. Byrne was often posted outside the doors to the Oval Office while Bill Clinton was president and was a frequent witness to behind-the-scenes clashes between the president and first lady.

In the book, Byrne describes Hillary as too “erratic, uncontrollable and occasionally violent” to become the next president of the United States. He goes on to say that what he saw in the 1990s sickened him and then tells of Ms. Clinton repeatedly shouting obscenities at her husband, Secret Service agents, and other White House staff members. He says her staff members were all afraid of her next outburst. At times, he alleges, Secret Service agents even had conversations about the possibility that they would have to protect the president from his wife’s physical attacks.

One morning just before a key presidential address to the nation, the couple had a particularly violent encounter. Ms. Clinton was reported to have been so paranoid that she attempted to have the Secret Service banned from the White House and even tried to ditch her security detail once. Gary Byrne, outlining the details in his book, believes this type of behavior is indicative of problems that should prohibit her from being elected president.

“Hillary Clinton is now poised to become the Democratic nominee for president of the United States, but she simply lacks the integrity and temperament to serve in the office… From the bottom of my soul I know this to be true. And with Hillary’s latest rise, I realize that her own leadership style – volcanic, impulsive, enabled by sycophants, and disdainful of the rules set for everyone else — hasn’t changed a bit.”

Byrne claims in his book that he interrupted the president’s sexual indiscretions in the White House. He said he once walked into a room where the president was “involved inappropriately with a woman” who wasn’t his wife, nor was she Monica Lewinsky. He also says he once threw away a White House towel that was stained with lipstick and the president’s “bodily fluids.”

In another incident in 1995, he describes arriving for work one day after a loud fight had occurred between the Clintons the night before. As previously reported by the Inquisitr, evidence of the scuffle included a light blue vase that had been “smashed to bits” as well as Bill Clinton with a “real, live put-a-steak-on-it black eye.” So close was Byrne’s proximity to the intimate goings-on at the White House that he was subpoenaed to testify before a grand jury when Bill Clinton’s affair with intern Monica Lewinsky was investigated.

Byrne’s book also serves to amplify and validate prior allegations of mistreatment of Secret Service agents by Ms. Clinton, including those made by former Washington Post reporter Ronald Kessler and author Edward Klein. The latter also gave details of a fight between Bill and Hillary Clinton over the Lewinsky affair. Hillary Clinton compared Gary Byrne to Ed Klein, and others who have revealed details of Hillary Clinton’s outbursts. Fox News reports that Nick Merrill, spokesman for Ms. Clinton, dismissed them as attempts to cash in on the “election cycle with their nonsense” and that this book “should be put in the fantasy section of the book store.”

As for Ms. Clinton, her critics say her latest campaign strategy appears to include avoiding press conferences and answering questions about her email scandal and her behavior. Her main strategy, however, has been to focus her attention on her opponent, Republican nominee Donald Trump. She has repeatedly told crowds how he’s unqualified to be president, adding recently that he is “temperamentally unfit to be commander-in-chief.” Even Chris Matthews, MSNBC anchor and devoted Clinton fan, had to laugh at the oxymoron, according to Washington’s MarketWatch.

Katrina Pierson, a Trump spokeswoman, says Trump shouldn’t have any problem winning the war of words over temperaments.

“The issue of temperament is more a problem for Hillary Clinton,” she said. “I don’t recall Mr. Trump ever screaming at the Secret Service, calling them pigs, throwing vases across the room and clawing the face of his spouse, which Hillary Clinton has been reported to do.”

Former Secret Service agent Gary Byrne, sickened by Hillary Clinton’s character, stands by the tell-all book he has penned. It is scheduled for release on June 28. Will you read it? Do you believe the allegations against Ms. Clinton or that this is merely fodder for campaign clashes? Sound off in the comments below.
