WASHINGTON—House Committee Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) today joined Fox News Sunday to discuss the committee’s investigation of the U.S. Secret Service’s historic security failures at President Trump’s campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania and to preview tomorrow’s hearing with Director Cheatle. “Days after the assassination attempt a spokesperson for the Secret Service denied the reports that the Trump campaign requested more resources, but it was confirmed the Trump campaign did ask for more resources.”“We have a lot of questions as to how the Secret Service is managing its money. So our question for Director Cheatle is: are you competent to run the Secret Service? Every American can tell that there should never have been allowed anyone on that roof … That’s unacceptable. And that’s what the Director is going to have to answer tomorrow,” Chairman Comer concluded.
