Panel calls for major reforms in Secret Service after Trump assassination attempt
Summary: An independent panel has called for "fundamental reform" of the Secret Service following an assassination attempt on Donald Trump during a campaign rally in Pennsylvania. The panel criticized the agency for poor communication and inadequate security measures.
The report highlighted systemic issues, including a failure to assess risks specific to Trump and a culture of operating with limited resources. It recommended new leadership, improved planning, and a unified command structure for large events.
The Secret Service acknowledged the need for changes and stated it is enhancing training and operational readiness. The agency is also working with Congress to secure additional funding.
