Hey, it's Michael. We gave you a heads up about this last week, but as a reminder, or in case you didn't hear the episode, you might see some changes coming to the show this week.

If you're like most people, and you listen to us on Apple

podcast or on Spotify, you're going to notice that the Times is going to ask you

to subscribe if you want full access to our podcasts, including the daily.

As we said, every day, our newest episode,

that day's show will remain free to everyone listening everywhere. And so will shows from the previous few days but if you

want full access to our past shows and full access to all the New York Times

podcasts like Ezra Klein modern Modern Love, the Runup, the interview,

Hard Fork, you'll have to subscribe. We think the easiest thing to do is to become a subscriber

to all of the New York Times. You get access to the newspaper,

the games, the cooking app, and all of our podcasts. But if you don't want to subscribe to everything,

you can get just an audio subscription.

So even though you don't have to subscribe to hear the daily, we genuinely hope that you'll

consider this a way of supporting the work that we do here and supporting the

journalists of the New York Times. We make this show for you, our listeners and we couldn't do it without your support.

From the New York Times I'm Rachel Abrams and this is the Daily. After the assassination attempt on former President Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania,

Congress held hearings on the failures of the Secret Service.

What exactly do you see as the core problem that led to your agency being outgunned by a 20-year-old

using his father's gun and acting on his own without a particularly sophisticated plan or technology.

They questioned the actions of the agents that day and the agency's leadership.

I think that we are waiting to determine exactly what those failures or failure was.

Director Kimberly Cheetle struggled to provide answers and soon after stepped down.
