Secret Service renting $30,000-a-month Malibu mansion as part of Hunter Biden detail: report
Traveltwerp beat you to it.
A drop in the bucket compared to what they spent at Trump Tower. Why weren't you outraged about that or the fact they had to rent an apartment for a place to pee when Ivanka and Jared wouldn't let them use a bathroom?

You are deflecting, why are you Lefties outraged by this after being so outraged about the money spent on Ivanka and Jared? I wasn't outraged then nor am I outraged about this. Lefties are such pathetic hypocrites

I believe you spelled aren't incorrectly. Given the rest of your response, if you aren't outraged...what is your point?

Nope, I didn't misspell anything, this time. I already explained what my point is by the question I originally posed. You are still deflecting.

Not true. $20-30,000 per month in rent to guard Hunter Biden is the record by far that the Secret Service has ever had to pay for one person.

They paid $3,000.00 a month to protect the Trump kids. They lived across the street.

One secret service agent would cost more than that. That would amount to $18.75 an hour without even counting benefits. I doubt that they only had one agent at a time, and I don't believe they were only protected 8 hours a day five days a week. I must challenge your number. One officer 24 hours a day would be $6.25 an hour, and again that isn't weighted. Where did you get your number? You can't hire a security officer who isn't allowed to carry a gun for $6.25 an hour.

I'm speaking ONLY of the rent for housing for the agents. They paid $3,000 a month to house the agents that guarded the Trump kids while the cost of housing the agents that are guarding Hunter (and his family I assume) is $30,000.00 a month. It's because of the locations.
Sorry I didn't make myself clear. I have no idea what their hourly cost is.

There has been no indication that the $3000 per month basement apartment was used to "house" agents. Reports indicated the apartment was rented so the agents would have a bathroom to use as Ivanka and Jared had refused to give the agents access to their bathroom.
Given that Ivanka and Jared rented in D C. I'm sure the agents could have gone to their own homes when off duty. If the apartment offered a view of the Kushner's home, it could have been used for surveillance, but that isn't really "housing" the agents.

$3000 a month per agent doesn't really sound like a whole lot of money to be worried about. <shrugs>

Really?
Before leaving office Trump extended Secret Service protection for 6 months for his adult children and a few government officials including Steve Mnuchin and Mark Meadows.
The total cost for those 6 months has been reported by the Washington Post as $1.7 million.
That figure includes $52,000 spent to protect Mnuchin, a multimillionaire, during a business trip to the far east.
Some of the money spent ended up in Trump's pocket as the Secret Service had to pay the high room rates at Trump resorts when the kids went to visit daddy...or when they were protecting Trump himself when he stayed at one of his resorts.
Not to mention the millions it cost taxpayers for his protection while golfing.
