The Department of Homeland Security inspector general opened an investigation on Wednesday into the Secret Service’s failure to prevent the assassination attempt on former president Donald Trump at Saturday’s Pennsylvania rally.
The objective of the probe is to “Evaluate the United States Secret Service’s (Secret Service) process for securing former President Trump’s July 13, 2024 campaign event,” according to a short notice posted to the inspector general’s website. No specific date was given for when the investigation was launched.
The newly launched investigation comes after President Joe Biden had directed the Secret Service to conduct an independent review

With this administration, an investigation means hiding whatever evidence they come across to cover their butts.

Lets see, the DHS, run by a Biden appointee, is investigating another department, headed by an appointee of Dr. Jill? Why don't I see anything important coming out of this??? Just asking....

Bread and circuses. They have no intention of getting to the bottom of this. In fact, the purpose of the investigation will be to do the opposite.

I doubt they will tell us it was all planned for President Trump to die. The SS I've always known don't make mistakes.

They promise full and complete disclosure, and that each page of the report will have at least one unredacted word.

The Secret Service bears ultimate and overall responsibility for the safety of the protectee, no matter what other organizations may or may not be involved. You were there to direct traffic. That's all.

I think the next administration should oversee these investigations. DEmocrats will never admit to a fellow dem jay walking, let alone attempting an assasination. Bidens whole cabinet should be subject to an independent counsel supervised by rudi giuliani.

Can they count the number of females “protecting” President Trump and the number on Biden’s detail?

Investigating your own always provides favorable results to the guilty. Secret Service management blew the only job they have and the entire world saw it on TV. The outcome should be very interesting. Of course they will find a scapegoat but it won't be the actual people who failed.

IGs can only make recommendations based on their findings. If there is anything criminal, they refer it to DOJ. So nothing will come of this investigation except some Congresspeople and Senators will sit on the committee dais and harrumph...a lot.

There is no way these "investigations" will convince me that Saturday wasn't a setup...and now the FBI is gonna investigate...YEAH RIGHT....they have the shooters cell phones...and they will bury them...and biden's stooges will order a commission...like the Warren commission for the JFK assassination that lied through their teeth and have caused 50 years of doubting the findings....this time WE're to smart...and Dan Bongino is on the job...a retired Secret Service agent who knows where to look....

The Marxist/Socialist DHS investigates itself. Coverup #10 is in work.

No Cloning of radio frequencies. No air cover, or drone flights! Left DJT on his own and he barely escaped with his Live. No excuses because the liabilities were too great! Must be consequences!
