I’ve only heard bits and pieces of this from friends and strangers through some specific events so far

Can you tell us what bits you’ve heard, so that we don’t have to give redundant answers?

Preparations for the event POTUS is attending months in advance

Large convoy of vehicles with special equipment for transportation by land

Operating two exactly same and fully equipped planes for transportation by air

5 inch bulletproof glass windows for the ‘Beast’ and the Oval Office

These are the main points I know, barring a few small ones I cannot recall at the moment or unsure about

  So, not so much ‘powers’ as technologies and strategies. ‘Powers’ in this space would suggest things like ‘power to arrest’ or ‘jurisdiction’ rather than the physical systems and strategies.
