A shocking new report reveals catastrophic failures by the Secret Service leading up to a near-assassination of Donald Trump during a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, one year ago. The Government Accountability Office (GAO) disclosed that the agency was aware of a credible threat to Trump’s life ten days before the event but failed to communicate this critical intel to the agents on the ground.

Witnesses recounted a chilling scene as gunfire erupted during the rally, with Trump collapsing behind the podium amid chaos. Eyewitness Alexis McAdams, who reported from the scene last year, expressed disbelief that the Secret Service had not shared vital information about the threat. “How can you not discuss something as big as that?” she questioned, highlighting the confusion and fear that gripped the crowd when shots rang out.

The report, released by Senator Chuck Grassley, also revealed that the Trump campaign had repeatedly requested increased security measures, which were denied by the Secret Service. This negligence raises critical questions about the agency’s leadership and operational protocols.

Adding to the outrage, it was disclosed that a drone, which could have provided aerial surveillance, was inoperable due to a lack of training—an agent had received only one hour of instruction. This glaring oversight has left many, including the family of Corey Comparetore, who tragically lost his life during the incident, demanding accountability.

As the Secret Service claims to have made significant changes and appointed new leadership, the public is left to wonder: will these reforms be enough to prevent such a dangerous lapse in security from happening again? The urgency for answers and accountability has never been greater as the nation grapples with the implications of this shocking revelation.
