The agency said the drone could wind up inadvertently spying on people and properties around Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, but that any video or photos will be deleted in 30 days unless those images wind up part of a criminal investigation.

The Secret Service plans to let club-goers know about the drone, though Reuters didn't mention whether they'd let Bedminster residents know as well. We reached out to the Department of Homeland Security (of which the Secret Service is a part) for more.
