Congress Demands Changes From Secret Service

Questions continue to mount around the Secret Service two days after a second assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump. On Monday, the interim director of the service admitted that agents did not search the perimeter of Trump’s West Palm Beach golf course, where the alleged gunman waited for 12 hours before he was spotted. Former Secret Service agent Michael Matranga talks about the work the agency does to protect people like Trump. Later in the show, Florida Democratic Rep. Jared Moskowitz, who sits on the bipartisan panel investigating the first assassination attempt against Trump, talks about Congress’ plans to investigate the latest incident.

And in headlines: Israel declined to comment on what appeared to be a coordinated explosion of pagers used by members of Hezbollah that killed nine and injured thousands, Senate Republicans blocked a bill that would guarantee national access to IVF, and Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs faces federal charges of racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking.
