House GOP demands Secret Service records related to Trump assassination attempt

Published



EXCLUSIVE — A pair of House Republicans are demanding access to all Secret Service records related to the agency’s handling of Donald Trump’s recent rally in Pennsylvania, during which the former president was shot in the ear in an apparent assassination attempt.

In a bill being introduced on Tuesday and first obtained by the Washington Examiner, Reps. Eli Crane (R-AZ) and Andy Biggs (R-AZ) are pressing the Department of Homeland Security to hand over all documents, records, and communications regarding Trump’s July 13 rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. The bill comes just one day after Crane visited the rally site with the rest of the House Homeland Security Committee as part of its investigation into the security failures on that day.
