Yup. Those are tightly controlled and probably first revealed publicly today. It's a quick and easy near recognition signal.

Probably so the Secret Service guys would know if an infiltrator got in with a phony one made up from internets photos.  Excellent tactics.

Having worked protection details before, often you have different lapel pins for different days to identify friendlies. If you only have one variant of lapel pin, it’s easy for a bad guy to duplicate that pin and pretend to be part of the detail.

Not saying that’s what’s happening here, but it’s a strong possibility.

Yep at first I posted a Russian star with a Black Power fist in the middle that looked hilariously similar to the pin in OP's photo.  You got me.

It was definitely because he's Asian that my mind immediately associated him with the USSR and BLM.  Had nothing to do with me conducting a Google image search and selecting the first photo that looked like a half ass match.

Stupid me investing another 15 minutes sifting through Google images until I found a correct match for the actual pin to replace the dumb pic I posted first, right.

I think it's a liner that keeps the outer mask directly off your face so you can breath better and be heard more clearly.

Sure, but it could have been sewn in to the other mask, or tucked into it, instead of signalling virtue.
As is, it looks like someone sagging their pants to show the world their underwear.

His job is to protect the man in front of him.  That N95 is one aspect of that.

Looked like he was in the vehicle with Biden, so it makes sense that he'd be using higher PPE measures than others.

Sewing an N95 filter media into one of those ad hoc masks defeats the purpose of using N95 filter media because of excess perimeter leakage - the higher pressure drop of the N95 media forces more flow to the perimeter of the mask for a given motive pressure.

It's a usss lapel pin. It shows that your part of an agency that supports the White House. There are several different agency's that have them . It makes it easier to get there check points without having to show your Id or badge.
Each pin has a serial number.
I have one for the agency that I'm assigned to.

It's a Secret Service pin. I'm a GOP county chairman and worked a few events with the Secret Service last year; the field detail officers wear matching pins for easy identification. They issue different pins to volunteers who drive in the motorcade or help with VIP escort.

Many of supporting local units do something similar - the Ohio Attorney General has plainclothes officers who serve as personal protection officers, and they have their own pins, etc.

I really feel for the those guys - I spent about five hours shooting the shit with one of them when the President was coming for an event, and he had many hours on his feet to come.

It looks like there's some structure under his mask; maybe it's one of those Cool Turtle things to make it easier to breathe.

So you're defending the use of 2 masks rather than admitting what most of us know to be true, that masks are 100% fucking worthless against a sickness with a 99.6% survival rate. How about 3 masks, or 4?
Maybe Biden just smells bad.

For fucks sake.  He's wearing the outer, black covering to better match the appearance of those he's protecting.  The N95, underneath, is the protective measure.

He's speculating. One thing is clear, no matter what it turns out to be, you'd claim there was no point anyway.

Masks are all a big hoax, right?
