House Report Cites Security Failures in Trump Assassination Attempt

A bipartisan task force found preventable errors in law enforcement coordination during the July 13 rally in Pennsylvania.

The report highlights a lack of planning and coordination between the Secret Service and local law enforcement before the rally.
Shooter Thomas Matthew Crooks was able to fire eight shots, injuring Trump and others, due to fragmented communication among agencies.
Despite being flagged as suspicious, Crooks was not apprehended in time, illustrating critical lapses in security protocols.
The Secret Service did not participate in crucial pre-rally briefings, leading to confusion about roles and responsibilities.
A final report with further findings and recommendations is expected by December 13, as investigations into the incident continue.
