The shooting has raised questions about how the shooter got in from where the former president could be seen.

The US Department of Homeland Security Inspector General has launched an investigation into the Secret Service’s efforts to provide security for Donald Trump on the day of an assassination attempt on him at a rally in Pennsylvania. The AP agency reported this with reference to a statement by the inspector general.

The purpose of the investigation is to examine the Secret Service’s security efforts during Trump’s campaign event on July 13, 2024.

President Joe Biden also ordered an independent security review of Donald Trump’s rally.

Secret Service Director Kim Cheatle said the agency understands the importance of the review ordered by Biden and will be fully involved in it, as well as in the work of congressional committees investigating the shooting.

The shooting has raised questions about how the shooter got in, where the former president is visible, despite the former president’s increased security.

The United States Secret Service has approximately 7,800 employees and is responsible for the protection of presidents, vice presidents, members of their families, former presidents, their spouses and minor children under the age of 16, as well as several other high government officials. .

As you know, on July 14, during a Trump campaign rally in the city of Butler, an attempt was made on his life. Trump later said he was shot in the upper right ear and lost a lot of blood. The attacker, 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks, was shot dead.

US intelligence agencies received information about Iran’s preparations to assassinate Trump, after which the Secret Service increased security around him. The reason may be revenge for the assassination of senior Iranian general Qassem Soleimani, who died in January 2020 during the Trump administration.
