Jon Stewart Takes On The Secret Service After White House Security Breach

Here's How To Improve Security At The White House

"Here's how dysfunctional the Secret Service is at this point: Congress had to help them come up with solutions," Stewart said.

"A series of whimsical traps," Stewart said.

Yes, the kinds of traps used in "Home Alone."

As Senior White House Correspondent Jordan Klepper discovers, such traps can be highly effective.
