Kathy Griffin’s picture triumphantly holding up the "bloody" decapitated "head" of a Donald Trump dummy is in the center of attention of the Secret Service, the Washington Times reports.
After she posted the image, numerous people on social media not only criticized her but also tagged the Secret Service, the agency charged with protecting the president and handling assassination threats.
Afterwards, the agency’s Twitter feed noted that it is "on it!"
"On it! @SecretService has a robust protective intelligence division that monitors open source reporting & social media to evaluate threats," the agency wrote.
"Threats made against @SecretService protectees receive the highest priority of all of our investigations. #ProtectionNeverRests," the Secret Service continued.
