Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, who oversees the Secret Service, on Monday slammed the security at Donald Trump’s rally and admitted the gunman never should have had a clear sight on him.
“A direct line of sight like that to the former president should not occur,” Mayorkas told ABC News’ “Good Morning America.”
Officials said Thomas Matthew Crooks, 20, was on a rooftop near Trump’s campaign event in Butler, Pa., on Saturday evening when he fired multiple rounds at the 78-year-old former president and spectators before he was ultimately killed by a Secret Service sniper.
The DHS chief backed President Biden’s call for an “independent review of the incident,” which left Trump injured after a bullet grazed his ear, a spectator killed and two others injured.

Gee, Ya think???????
They already have their answers ready because this was there plan. Only change is Trump survived. They all expected him to be dead.
.
They reported on Fox that they are saying it shouldn’t have happened, but stop before accepting any responsibility.
6-7 year Investigation
Or the idiot Republicans that voted against impeaching him
JFK assassination has been investigated for 61 years.
Resign and never be seen again and beg for forgiveness from all the victims on your way out.
“A direct line of sight like that to the former president should not occur,” Mayorkas told ABC News
OK, buddy then how the hell did it occur, when you’re in command?
mayorkas promised to make Trump’s security detail
as secure as the border
It’s time time dismantle HSA. It’s a worthless agency that fails in its mission to protect anything.
It is time for the cover up of the conspiracy to begin in earnest.
:-(
Then he's responsible for their failure.
He is saying mistakes were made.
Bad omen for a person under him.
I’d say that puts the Cheetos lady’s head on the block.
You got caught. You planned this assignation.
Has he tendered his resignation yet? Has he fired the head of the Secret Service yet? As Steyn points out, that’s how it’s supposed to work when you utterly fail at your job.
My thoughts on Mayorkas are not suitable for posting.
Assassination.
And how did some loser 20 year old know to go to that position? No way that moron just showed up without a plan.
Its a coverup of incompetence. A cover up of negligence. A cover up of DEI policy failure. A cover up of inciting the conditions that encouraged and allowed a wing nut to take a shot.
I dont see conspiracy. I see lots of finger pointing when they created the situation. They wished it to happen, wanted it to be successful. Will deny their culpability. But are embarrassed to be shown for their failure, before and after.
Great, he observed the obvious. The next logical step is to point fingers.
