Congressman LaHood Wants More Answers from Secret Service

Illinois Congressman Darin LaHood says the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump is 'embarrassing' on the national stage.

 

Even with Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle submitting her resignation this week, LaHood says the American public deserves more answers.

 

 

LaHood added that House lawmakers plan to vote on a bipartisan task force this week with subpoena power to gather more answers. Cheatle, a Danville native and Eastern Illinois University grad, is replaced by Ronald Rowe Jr. until President Biden selects a new Director. LaHood, a former Federal Prosecutor himself, says that despite the' embarrassment' on the national stage, Secret Service members are the top service members in the country.
