JD Vance’s team had water level of Ohio river raised for family’s boating trip Exclusive: Incident raises questions of exploitation of public services, but Secret Service says it was requested for ‘safe navigation’

The line between "safe" and "pleasant" was blurred here.
#USACE Louisville had to "temporarily" increase outflows from Caesar Creek Lake to "support safe navigation of US Secret Service personnel”.
#JDVance wanted a pleasurable trip.
No safety issues for other people.
