Gary Byrne served during the Clinton administration, and in the beginning of his book “Crisis of Character: A White House Secret Service Officer Discloses his Firsthand Experience with Hillary, Bill, and How They Operate,” he alleges that Lewinsky went nuts when she heard Clinton was sleeping with former Vice President Walter Mondale’s daughter.
In December 1997, Lewinsky reportedly came to the White House to visit the president when she was denied entry. Byrne, who said he was stationed in front of the Oval Office, claims he heard of her arrival on his radio. (RELATED: Former Secret Service Member: ‘Hillary Lacks The Temperament To Be President’)

“Monica, however, still regarded herself quite favorably as the president’s singular mistress,” Byrne writes in his book. “So now she was pissed off. She pressed the officer about the delay and wanted to know why she was left standing in his security booth. He lashed back.”
“You have to wait,” the officer at the time told Lewinsky. “He’s with his other piece of ass. Wait till he’s finished.”
“What’s he want with her when he has this?” Lewinsky replied. (RELATED: Former White House Staffer Spills The Beans On The ‘Paranoid’ Clintons)

“We wondered how he got any work done and joked that he would have been better at running a brothel in a red-light district than the White House,” Byrne added.
