Secret Service Failures Nearly Cost Trump His Life | JQJO

A Senate report reveals preventable communication failures within the Secret Service during a July 2020 assassination attempt on President Trump in Pennsylvania. A former Buffalo-based Secret Service agent, whose name is redacted, is heavily criticized for his role in the incident. The report highlights a lack of structured communication and coordination between the Secret Service and local law enforcement, leading to a near-fatal outcome. The agent's testimony contradicted that of a Pennsylvania state trooper, and the report states he lacked awareness of critical issues hindering his duty. The agent is now retired and unavailable for comment.
