'Zero Secret Service Agents Bitten': Vance Trolls Biden With Post About His Dog [Watch]

Ohio Senator and VP candidate JD Vance took a jab at President Biden and his dog Commander in a post on X this week. Vance said he can confirm his dog, Atlas, has “bitten zero Secret Service agents.”

Biden’s dog, Commander, reportedly bit Secret Service agents on 24 separate occasions.

“To everyone asking, I can confirm Atlas has bitten zero Secret Service agents. I’ve had dogs my whole life. Atlas isn’t even 10 months old and is already an all-time great dog.,” Vance said in response to a video.

Meanwhile, Biden’s dog was removed from the White House last year.

From CNN:

Commander Biden, President Joe Biden’s family dog, bit US Secret Service personnel in at least 24 incidents at the White House and other locations, according to new internal USSS documents obtained by CNN.

That number does not include additional incidents CNN has previously reported involving executive residence staff and other White House workers. But the new documents, obtained through a Freedom of Information Act request, reveal the extent to which the situation had become a serious workplace issue for the hundreds of staff supporting White House operations, and how agency personnel changed their habits to avoid being injured by the German shepherd.

“The recent dog bites have challenged us to adjust our operational tactics when Commander is present – please give lots of room,” an unnamed assistant special agent in charge of USSS’ Presidential Protective Division wrote to their team in a June 2023 email, warning that agents “must be creative to ensure our own personal safety.”
