Congress official: The US Secret Service should be held accountable for the assassination attempt on Trump

PNN – The top inspector general of the US House of Representatives said he will ask the US Secret Service to answer questions about the assassination attempt after Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump’s campaign.

According to the report of Pakistan News Network, the Washington Times newspaper wrote: James Comer, a Republican member from Kentucky and head of the House of Representatives Oversight and Accountability Committee, said: There are many questions and people want answers.

He added that he contacted the Secret Service to submit a report and asked Kimberly Cheatle, the head of the Secret Service, to attend the parliamentary hearing.

Trump allies are questioning why his opponents are seeking to endanger the candidate’s life by writing legislation that would remove his Secret Service protections.

After the assassination attempt, Anthony Guglielmi, a senior spokesman for the US Secret Service, said agents of the service foiled the operation of the shooter, who is now dead.

He added: The secret service quickly responded to the assassination attempt on the former US president with its protective measures, and he is now safe.

Homeland Security Secretary Lejandro Mayorkas, whose department oversees the Secret Service, said he and Chitel personally informed the president of the shooting.

In late 2015, during his first presidential election campaign, Trump received the support of the Secret Service.

Since then, including his time in the White House, then as a former president, and now as a possible Republican presidential candidate, he has had the support of the Secret Service.

An organization of former senior Trump administration officials said it has filed a request to determine whether the Department of Homeland Security denied requests to expand Secret Service protections against Trump.

Alex Pfeiffer, spokesperson for Make America Great Again, wrote on the X social network: Senior Democrats introduced legislation aimed at denying the former president of the United States the support of the Secret Service. They did so while Biden called Trump a “dictator” and former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Trump “must” stop campaigning.

Last April, top US Democrats unveiled a new law that would see Trump lose his Secret Service agents if he is convicted of a crime and sent to prison.

Secret Service agents quickly removed Donald Trump from the stage after he fell to the ground at a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.

News sources announced that Donald Trump has left the local hospital after being shot in the ear and will continue his election campaign as usual.
