Task Force Probes Trump Assassination Attempt

A bipartisan task force led by Rep. Mike Kelly (R-PA) is investigating the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump that occurred in Butler, Pennsylvania. The task force, comprising seven Republicans and six Democrats, has begun requesting documents and briefings from top officials, including the Attorney General and FBI Director. Kelly, who was present at the rally with his family, emphasizes the need to understand the security failures and prevent future incidents. The task force aims to present their findings to the public by the end of the year. Meanwhile, the House Freedom Caucus is pressuring GOP leaders for a short-term funding bill into early 2025, aiming to defer major spending decisions to a potential Trump administration.
