Secret Service spokeswoman Anthony Guglielmi told The Post that “the agency is aware of an incident outside the duty involving two employees, which could be a potential policy violation.”
Both employees will be “immediately returned to their workplaces and placed on administrative leave,” he said.
“There will be no impact on the upcoming trip,” Kukilmi said. “We have very strict ethics and policy for all employees and we hold ourselves to the highest professional standards. Since this is an active issue of management staff, we are not in a position to comment further.
Biden reportedly decided Thursday to send staff home on their way to South Korea.

The president, who began a five-day trip to the Far East, arrived in South Korea on Friday afternoon local time. Biden made his first corporate line-up tour of Samsung’s computer chip factory with South Korean President Yoon Soo-ki.
“Our two countries are working together to create the best and most advanced technology in the world. This factory is proof of that, ”the president said. “Keeping our supply chains flexible, reliable and secure will enable both the Republic of Korea and the United States to compete in the global economy.”
“This vibrant democracy has driven companies like Samsung, responsible for the responsible development of technology and innovation, to become the powerhouse of global innovation by investing in educating its people,” he added. “It is important for both of our countries to shape the future in the direction we both want to go.”
Last November, Samsung announced plans to open a $ 17 billion semiconductor plant in Tyler, Texas. Last year a shortage of semiconductors affected the availability of cars, kitchen appliances and other items, which led to high inflation worldwide. The president said the Texas plant would add 3,000 high-tech jobs and hire union construction workers.
“These little chips are important to push us into the next era of human technological development,” Biden said.
Biden will travel to Tokyo on Sunday, where he will meet with the leaders of Australia, India and Japan, as well as Emperor Naruhito and Prime Minister Kishida Fumio before attending the summit on Monday.
