Secret Service leaders have reportedly interfered with the Inspector General's probe into the July 13th assassination attempt against former President Donald Trump in Butler, PA. Emails from Secret Service management instructed staff to inform their supervisors of any contact from the Inspector General, raising concerns about transparency and proper protocols. This interference has been highlighted by various officials, including Representative Pat Fallon and Senator Chuck Grassley, who have called for a major culture change within the Secret Service and emphasized the need for transparency. Senator Grassley wrote to Acting Dir Rowe after whistleblowers reported the interference. The incident has also drawn criticism from public figures who argue that the current administration's Secret Service continues to put Trump at risk.
