(StraightShooterNews.com) – Revealing what went on during the assassination attempt on GOP presidential nominee President Donald Trump, Republican Florida Representative Cory Mills voiced his concerns regarding the Secret Service’s response to the incident.
During his appearance on Fox News’ “Jesse Watters Primetime,” Mills highlighted the serious security lapses that were revealed during the first congressional hearing on the issue.
“We had our very first hearing…our forum where we had Ben Shafer, who is one of the actual countersnipers that was on the ground there,” the congressman stated.
“He confirmed not only what type of a sophisticated explosive device that Thomas Crooks had, as well as for the multi-channel detonator, but he also confirmed two key things,” Mills explained to Jesse Watters.
Mills pointed out “that the Secret Service refused the offer of communication platforms to be able to ensure that everyone has a comms channel that they can utilize.”
He also revealed that the agency was “offered a surveillance drone by local law enforcement, and once again, the Secret Service refused to utilize it.”
“So now we have three things, Jesse. We have no comms plan and no communications, which is refused,” Mills said.
When Watters asked about the reasons behind these refusals, Mills suggested it pointed to deeper issues within the agency.
“I think that they’re going to try and run this whole idea of negligence or the fact that they’re going to try and say that it was the fault of three or four of the officers,” Mills theorized.
“The bottom line stops at the director themselves,” Mills responded. “And I can tell you, we asked Dan Bongino today, former Secret Service officer, whether or not he feels safer with Ronald Rowe at the seat, and he said, absolutely not.”
He also indicated that these problems signaled a larger systemic issue within the Secret Service.
“Look, this is a culture of a foster DEI society whereby they are not trying to send their best. I went through a plethora of lists since 2023 to 2024 of all the failed and missed steps that has been taken by the Secret Service,” he added.
“So I can tell you, it is a culture issue, it is DEI at heart, but this is either criminal gross negligence or purposeful intent, and that’s what we’re set out to actually find,” Miller concluded.
