Judicial Watch announced today it obtained 400 pages of new records including incident reports detailing multiple attacks and damages caused to United States Secret Service (USSS) members by President Joe Biden’s dog Major at both the White House and Biden’s lake home in Wilmington, DE. The documents also reveal that a member of USSS who was attacked by the dog was displeased that White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki misled the press about the incident.
(In August 2021, Judicial Watch uncovered records from the Secret Service revealing Biden’s dog was responsible for many more biting incidents than the Biden White House has publicly acknowledged.
One email notes that “at the current rate an Agent or Officer has been bitten every day this week (3/1-3/8) causing damage to attire or bruising/punctures to the skin.”)
Judicial Watch obtained the documents in response to an October 2021 Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit filed after the DHS failed to respond to a July 29, 2021, request (Judicial Watch v. U.S. Department of Homeland Security (No. 1:21-cv-02824)) asking the Secret Service for:
- All records related to all dogs owned by the Bidens that have lived at the White House, including communications sent to and from USSS officials, and reports filed about dog bites and other dog-related incidents.
- All medical and vaccination records for all dogs owned by the Bidens that have lived at the White House.
