The House Homeland Security Committee hearing has revealed new details about the July 13 assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump, including that the shooter, Thomas Matthew Crooks, fired eight shots before being neutralized by Secret Service agents. Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle admitted to significant operational failures and stated that the agency ignored multiple security enhancement requests from Trump's campaign. Cheatle faced bipartisan calls for her resignation during a congressional hearing, where she took full responsibility but indicated she does not intend to step down. House Republicans are demanding access to all Secret Service records related to the event, citing severe security lapses. The FBI is treating the incident as a potential act of domestic terrorism, and internal and congressional investigations are ongoing.
