Congressional Task Force Subpoenas ATF in Trump Assassination Attempt Probe
The task force accuses the ATF of withholding crucial documents and testimony in its investigation of attempts on President-elect Trump's life.
- The subpoenas target two ATF employees who were involved in the agency's response to the July 13 shooting in Butler, Pennsylvania.
- The task force has criticized the ATF for failing to provide requested documents and interviews despite multiple requests.
- ATF provided its first set of documents only after the subpoenas were issued, following a delayed and insufficient initial response.
- The investigation focuses on two assassination attempts, including the July incident where Trump was grazed by a bullet and a rally attendee was killed.
- The task force continues to seek clarity on the motives behind the assassination attempts and the alleged involvement of encrypted accounts and international connections.
