The Department of Homeland Security has opened an investigation after the Secret Service catastrophically failed to protect former President Donald Trump at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania last weekend. Trump narrowly escaped death after a bullet went through his ear while he was speaking at a lectern. The shooter was positioned on an unsecured roof just 140 yards away from the stage. The DHS Inspector General has also opened an investigation.
Republicans and Democrats on Capitol Hill have also launched separate investigations and have called on Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle to testify on Monday, July 22.
According to House Speaker Mike Johnson, DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas is attempting to block Cheatle from testifying. Johnson called on Cheatle to resign during an interview with Fox News Wednesday morning.
During remarks at the RNC convention in Milwaukee Tuesday night, Johnson vowed to get to the bottom of what happened.

I have nothing specific—but if my theory about communications sabotage and other “mistakes” is correct it would have required both state and SS moles to make it happen.
The Deep State method of operation is to reward those who do them big favors—and as you say Shapiro is “in the running” to be a future Democratic presidential candidate.
Imho he would have been the Democrat nominee if the assassination had been successful.
Example: Gerald Ford made his “bones” by marking up the Warren Commission report in his own handwriting—with forensic details that were obviously way beyond his knowledge base.
That was a “secret” until the Warren Commission draft with handwritten notes was released a couple of years ago—Ford could easily have been blackmailed since he proved he was an accessory after the fact.
It is a type of secret “initiation”—a lot like street gangs.
He was Impeached. The Senate set it aside. He should forever more be known as Impeached Secretary Mayorkis.
One of their problems (they think, but that could backfire) is how to get rid of Biden. If I were Trump, I would be very suspicious of in-person appearances of Trump and Biden.
Correct, impeachment by itself might be useful for political name calling.
Agreed—everyone should stay far away from Biden.
He has been greenlit by powerful Democrats.
Sometimes you have to read between the lines.
Wellllll, wonder whyyyy? One just woonders! Commie bastard, lies with impunity. He lied that the SS did not ask for more resources— by saying he had not had a request for the Trump Campaign. A pro obfuscator, fabricator and damned LIAR!
We will hear from the GREAT Peter Navarro at the RNC today.Hope they are feeding him well on a private jet to milwaukee. Released today for the same thing this Mayorkas is trying to make the SS director do— disobey a subpoena.
Oh please. Walking the grounds and looking at the building from a distance before attempting climbing it would allow him to previwe the roof, especially at a low pitch angle like it has.
Impeach Mayorkas again. Let’s get Schumer on record for refusing to hold a trial, this time and under these circumstances. The media ignored it when he did it the first time. They won’t be able to, this time.
As Steve Bannon sits in federal prison for that at this very moment. As Peter Navarro just did his sentence for that.
Eff DC. If the Repubs had one complete set of balls between them they would fly the widow and daughter of the dead firefighter from the rally, and the wounded Marine and start Day 1 testimony. If they don’t want to participate, it can be one sided.
I hope Mayorkas’ sins follow him forever.
Well, after that “sloped roof” comment, I can see why they would want her to STFU.
Mayorkas is hiding something.
Make him talk.
