Has anyone researched the pin the US Secret Service currently uses in plainclothes? The Secret Service symbol is also a star, just like the US Marshals.
I agree that the pin in the post above looks like the Marshal’s pin on the basis of it being a star, but it looks far more like the pins in this picture being used by Obama’s Secret Service detail.
Note though that the stars in the FJB pic are pierced around the star while the SS star lapel pins are solid - at least from what I've seen in research.
Your entire argument is predicated on the notion that the pin you posted indicates that agent is, undoubtedly, a US Marshal. No other explanation.
My explanation is that the pin you posted appears almost identical to the one being used by Obama’s Secret Service.
Which means that, as far as I can tell, your assumption appears to be incorrect. That pin does not belong to the US Marshals. That’s a Secret Service pin.
Which would indicate that this agent is Secret Service, not a Marshal.
Which would mean that Biden has Secret Service, not US Marshals around him.
So the possibilities, as I see them so far:
The US Marshals stole the design for their new pin from the Secret Service pin design from Obama’s years.
The US Marshals publicly took over Obama’s security during his Presidency without anyone knowing or caring.
The pin in the photo above was misidentified, and actually does belong to the Secret Service.

I can’t find a picture of a Marshal lapel pin with these colors, despite having a very similar design.

I know this is an oddity. I think that MAY have been the point. Very visible...very obvious. Just a little signal. Enjoy.
Well, my point is that it isn’t odd.

I appreciate your insight on this. We should be careful to see what is there - not just what we want to see.
A sensible observation!
