Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas has acknowledged that the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump over the weekend was a security failure. Mayorkas emphasized that such an incident should not have occurred and that President Joe Biden has ordered an independent review to investigate the matter.
Mayorkas stated that it was a failure when questioned about who was responsible for ensuring security at the rally. He assured that the independent review would analyze how and why the security breach happened, provide recommendations, and ensure that such incidents are prevented in the future.
