Florida Republican Rep. Michael Waltz has called for the US Secret Service to brief Congress this week following the recent security incident near former President Donald Trump. Waltz emphasized the urgency of the situation, stating that the July 13th assassination attempt was not an isolated incident and that ongoing domestic and foreign threats require immediate attention.
As a member of the bipartisan Assassination Task Force, which consists of six Democrats and seven Republicans, Waltz expects the Secret Service to provide a comprehensive briefing to Congress. The task force was established to investigate the attempted assassination of Trump at a Pennsylvania rally earlier this month.
