The Secret Service was so concerned about Hillary's condition, they broke protocol.

Secret Service followed atypical protocol with Clinton’s early departure from Sunday 9/11 event

(excerpt)

According to two former Secret Service agent who reviewed the video, the detail clearly had to rush and did not expect for Clinton to leave at that time. The said the Service generally prefers for the protected individual not to wait for a car to arrive, although that has happened before. In the video, Clinton is leaning against the bollard as a black van pulls up.

One former agent said the risk of waiting was diminished considerably on Sunday by the thick bubble of security surrounding the commemoration. Protective details for Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson, Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump and other city officials were also on hand.

It is also unusual for a detail leader to leave the protected individual's side, as a Secret Service agent, Todd Madison, is seen doing in the video, to open the van's doors. Opening the van typically left to another agent. But because of the rushed nature of the departure, one of the former agents said, another rule of Secret Service protection appears to have carried the day: Whoever is closest to the door must open it.

If they had only known it would upset clone so, I'm sure they'd have reconsidered :biggrin:

The Secret Service assisted Hillary as she wobbled. Normally, it's the press propping her up.

A bit hasty, WaPo?

Editor's note: This story has been updated to remove the assertion that the Secret Service may have broken protocol in responding to Clinton's illness, which was published before the agency was able to respond. In a statement sent later, a spokesman for the agency said that "at no time did any Secret Service personnel violate security protocols."

Cause the Secret Service, Hillary and the Clinton News Media are known to be the arbiters of truth....

Remember it was Bill Clinton's "honesty" that made Matt Drudge and started the rise of alt-right...
