The U.S. Secret Service arranged for the Army Corps of Engineers to raise the water level in a river in Ohio for Vice President JD Vance's kayaking birthday celebration. On August 1, the Corps temporarily increased outflows from Caesar Creek Lake to ensure safe navigation for Secret Service personnel. Vance kayaked the following day near his home. Critics highlighted the use of taxpayer resources for personal enjoyment during a time of budget cuts affecting the National Park Service.
The Secret Service often employs protective measures without the knowledge of the Vice President or his staff, as was the case last weekend.
It's outrageous for the Army Corps of Engineers to spend taxpayer money to increase water flow in a river so Vice President can go canoeing.
