Jul 18, 2024, 06:04 PM

Whistleblowers have come forward alleging that the Secret Service was understaffed at a recent Trump rally due to the agency's commitment to covering the NATO summit in Washington, D.C., and a campaign rally by Jill Biden in Pittsburgh. House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan has stated that the whistleblowers informed the committee about the limited resources available, which put former President Trump at risk. Jordan has sent a letter to FBI Director Christopher Wray, raising questions about this issue and the Trump rally shooting. The House Judiciary Committee is expected to address these concerns in a hearing next week. This situation has been described as a catastrophic Secret Service failure.
