A Senate committee says the U.S. Secret Service remains unaccountable for failures a year after the attempted assassination of President Donald Trump at a rally in Butler, Pa.
The Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee used its final report to take the Secret Service to task for refusing to answer for the failures at the rally and faulting the agency for not having fired a single person involved in the planning and execution of the event.
The shooting took place on July 13, 2024, when Thomas Crooks, a 20-year-old man from Bethel Park, Pa., fired multiple shots at Trump, including one that grazed his ear. Crooks was shot and killed at the site.
