33:48Now PlayingMike Pache reads the entire Whistleblower report. Only one to do so since the report has been issued just days ago.
On July 13, 2024, former President Donald J. Trump was nearly killed by an assassin’s bullet while
hosting a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, and the U.S. Secret Service failed to prevent it. It was the
most stunning breakdown in presidential security since the assassination of President John F.
Kennedy and attempted assassination of President Ronald Reagan.
Following this catastrophic failure, the Secret Service, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI),
and Department of Homeland Security (DHS) have all tried to evade real accountability. These
agencies and their leaders have slow-walked congressional investigations, misled the American
people, and shirked responsibility. In response, Senator Hawley personally visited the Butler,
Pennsylvania rally site to interview whistleblowers, opened up a whistleblower tip line, and
encouraged those with relevant information to tell their stories. Since then, many individuals have
come forward with information regarding the events of July 13—from the Secret Service, DHS,
and local law enforcement, as well as private citizens.
Also allegedly missing at the Trump rally were Secret Service intelligence units that work "with state and local law enforcement to handle reports of suspicious persons," according to the report, which added that Homeland Security personnel were used to fill in Secret Service shortages.
Some DHS agents were pulled off child exploitation cases and the training they received was "a poor quality, two-hour webinar," the report says.
The report alleges the hospital where Trump was treated after he was shot "was poorly secured," and the hospital site agent could not answer "basic questions about site security."
"This doesn't surprise me because it points to a systematic failure on the part of multiple people to properly prepare and plan for that event," Natali said.
