A former Secret Service agent this morning said the agency’s stricter behavior guidelines issued Friday aren’t that new. 

Andrew O’Connell told “CBS This Morning: Saturday” that the guidelines “really just put into print principles that have been around for a long time in the Secret Service.”

“The Secret Service goes back 150 years,” he added. “And the culture really is a culture of professionalism. And I think the American people have seen that for a long time.”
