Summary

s it a failure of messaging with the Secret Service, or much more? #Trump #Secretservice #KimberlyCheatle The leaders of the House oversight committee called on the Secret Service director, Kimberly A. Cheatle, to resign after her testimony on Monday in which she repeatedly refused to answer specific questions about the security failures that led to an assassination attempt of former President Donald J. Trump. Representatives James R. Comer, Republican of Kentucky and the chairman of the committee, and Jamie Raskin of Maryland, the top Democrat on the panel, joined several members of the committee in demanding Ms. Cheatle’s resignation. Suspected Donald Trump rally shooter Thomas Matthew Crooks posted a cryptic message to to the online gaming website Steam that read “July 13 will be my premiere, watch as it unfolds” before he opened fired at the former president and his supporters on that date at a campaign stop in Butler, Pennsylvania, multiple outlets reported. The post was discovered as investigators continue to comb through Crooks' digital footprint in an attempt to determine why the 20-year-old shot at the former president and if he acted alone in planning the plot that left one person dead and several others seriously injured. Investigators also found that, in addition to searching for information about Trump's Butler rally, Crooks searched for dates of the Democratic National Convention in August and for the dates of other Trump events.
