A former Secret Service agent who served on two presidential details told House lawmakers Thursday that “very atypical” security protocols were in place at the July 13 campaign rally where former President Donald Trump was nearly assassinated.

Patrick Sullivan, a 20-plus-year veteran of the agency, told members of the bipartisan task force probing the assassination attempt against Trump in Butler, Pa., that the communications plan and placement of agents deviated from ordinary security protocols.

Sullivan took specific issue with having two separate command posts for Secret Service and local law enforcement, the lack of a single radio frequency to quickly communicate threats and the failure to secure the perimeter of the Butler Farm Show grounds.
