House Task Force Investigates Trump Shooting Incident

A bipartisan House task force is investigating the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump, with members visiting the rally site in Butler, Pennsylvania, to gather insights into the security failures that allowed the incident to occur. The July 13 shooting resulted in Trump's injury and the death of a supporter, prompting the task force's four-month probe expected to culminate in legislative recommendations. The Secret Service has faced scrutiny, with several agents placed on administrative leave as part of the investigation into their operational failures. Task force members expressed their concerns regarding the proximity of the shooter to Trump during the rally, emphasizing the need for accountability and improvements in security protocols. The Department of Homeland Security is also conducting a separate review of the incident. The task force has subpoena power and plans to utilize it as their investigation progresses, with a deadline set for December 13.
