      Nah I’m talking wild shit like the Department of Energy’s Federal Protective Forces, or United States Postal Service’s Postal Inspectors, or the National Institutes of Health’s Division of Police.

      I looked into it a bit more for background info and I found FEMA’s under the the DHS, so whatever squirrelly paramil outfits the DHS runs can be allocated to FEMA I’d presume.

        AFAIK the Secret Service was started as the militant anti-counterfeiting wing of the Treasury. Only later on did they get protection details for US politicians and their families.
