Jul 15, 2024, 08:59 PM
The US Secret Service has assured that it is fully prepared to provide security at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee this week, despite an assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump at a campaign rally over the weekend. The agency stated on Sunday it will not change its protocols and expressed confidence in its security plan. However, the incident, which occurred on Saturday, has placed the Secret Service under intense scrutiny, with questions about potential security lapses.
