Secret Service report reveals details on failures in Trump attack attempt

Quick Summary:

A new Secret Service report into the July assassination attempt against former President Donald Trump said multiple staffers knew about clear line-of-sight risks but found them acceptable and that farm equipment intended to obstruct the view from the nearby building where the gunman opened fire was never used.

The internal review released Friday is the latest in a list of reports and investigations into the July 13 shooting at a Trump rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, which killed one rallygoer and wounded two others.

A classified version of the report, done by the agency's Office of Professional Responsibility, was shared with members of Congress, while a seven-page unclassified synopsis was released publicly Friday.
