TRUMP LATEST: Secret Service investigation and timeline revealed | LiveNOW from FOX

Rep. Burchett (R-TN) said the Secret Service 'failed the American people' by not taking former President Trump immediately off the stage in Pennsylvania after the assassination attempt took place. On Wednesday, the a subpoena was issued for Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle to testify before the House Oversight Committee.

Former President Trump survived the assassination attempt that killed on of his supporters at a rally in Butler Pennsylvania. The shooter was identified as 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks.

The Republican presidential candidate was shot in the ear. Shortly after Secret Service agents killed Crooks in retaliation fire. Crooks accessed the roof and fired from about 150 yards away from President Trump.
The gunman who attempted to assassinate former President Trump on Saturday was identified as suspicious by law enforcement more than an hour before he opened fire, Sen. John Barrasso, R-Wyo., tells Fox News.

“He was identified as a as a character of suspicion because of saw a rangefinder as well as a backpack. And this was over an hour before the shooting actually occurred,” Barrasso said. “So, you would think over the course of that hour, you shouldn't lose sight of the individual. Somebody ought to be following up on those sorts of things. No evidence of that happening at all.”

Fox News was also told that the Secret Service was aware of the threat before Trump walked on stage and narrowly survived an assassination attempt.

A Secret Service agent in charge of security for the event was on the phone with local and state police about the threat while the shooting took place.
Sen. John Barrasso, R-Wyo., tells Fox News that the Secret Service’s meeting with Senate lawmakers on Wednesday was a “100% cover-your-a—briefing” after the assassination attempt on former President Trump last Saturday.

Barrasso’s office said “no one has taken responsibility” despite the gunman having been “identified as being suspicious one hour before the shooting.”

“He had a range finder and a backpack. The Secret Service lost sight of him. No one has taken responsibility. No one has been held responsible. Someone has died. The President was almost killed. The head of the Secret Service needs to go,” Barrasso said, referring to USSS Director Kimberly Cheatle.

Two people were injured and another attendee was killed in the assassination attempt on Trump. In the days since, the Secret Service has faced intense scrutiny for the security lapse, with calls mounting for Cheatle to resign.

The widely circulated photograph showing a pair of U.S. Secret Service counter snipers on a rooftop overlooking Saturday’s Trump rally does not show the agents who neutralized the threat, authorities said.

There were four counter-sniper teams overlooking the event, Secret Service spokesman Anthony Guglielmi told Fox News Digital, two from the USSS and two local teams.

The photo shows the “second team,” he said, which did not fire the fatal shot.

The Secret Service took down Thomas Matthew Crooks, the 20-year-old would-be assassin, after he killed a spectator and critically wounded two others minutes after former President Donald Trump took the stage. The Republican candidate was struck in the ear and went to a nearby hospital for treatment.

A local marksman also engaged the suspect but did not fire the fatal shot, Butler County officials have confirmed.

Butler Country District Attorney Richard Goldinger told Fox News that officer had been placed on a routine administrative leave, standard procedure for all police-involved shootings.

A federal law enforcement source also confirmed that there was a local tactical team was stationed in a building on the property where the sniper fired from, however it was unclear whether it was the same building. There are several structures on the lot, which was outside the Secret Service’s secure perimeter.

Big problem... DC staffers never change. They are predominantly liberals. Changing administrations, heads of agencies and department heads does not change the direction of the agency. Staffers do what staffers do and that is to remain liberal.
