Acting Secret Service Director Ronald L. Rowe Jr. will address the public in a news briefing scheduled for 1 p.m. EDT this Friday to discuss the agency’s findings on the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump two months ago.
The briefing will cover an investigation into a July incident at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, where Matthew Crooks opened fire from an unsecured rooftop.
The Secret Service had called into a “center” about the IDed threat ten minutes before Trump went on stage, yet he was allowed to go on stage, and the Secret Service agent charge in Butler was on the phone with state and local police when the shooting occurred.
In July, Secret Service Director Kim Cheatle resigned one day after her evasive and repulsive testimony before Congress and ten days after President Trump was shot on stage at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.
Cheatle failed in her primary job – to protect the President of the United States.
