[JustTheNews] The Homeland Security Department’s inspector general has completed a report on Secret Service missteps during the Capitol crisis 3 ½ years ago but is refusing to release it As Congress turns its attention to the assassination attempt on Donald Trump’s life, a key House investigator vowed Monday to issue a subpoena to force the disclosure of a long-delayed report on an earlier Secret Service failure to detect a bomb that could have jeopardized Kamala Harris’ life the morning of the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot. The Homeland Security Department’s inspector general has completed a report on Secret Service missteps during the Capitol crisis 3 ½ years ago but is refusing to release it even though footage Just the News published a year ago shows Secret Service agents took then Vice President-elect Harris within 10 yards of an undetected explosive device planted at the Democratic National Committee headquarters, Rep. Barry Loudermilk, R-Ga., said.
Asked whether he was prepared to issue a subpoena, Loudermilk answered: “Absolutely.” He said he could like to coordinate the records demand with the new task force appointed by House Speaker Mike Johnson to probe the July 13 Trump assassination attempt. "Maybe coming from two fronts will cause them to break it loose," he said, The Georgia Republican is the chairman of the House Administration Subcommittee on Oversight that has been probing extensive security and intelligence failures that preceded the Jan. 6 tragedy. Loudermilk last week sent a letter accusing Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas of holding up the release of two reports by the inspector general, the agency’s independent watchdog, including the one entitled “United States Secret Service Preparation for and Response to the Events of January 6, 2021.” “We are aware that the Secret Service has reviewed and cleared this report. Therefore, you alone are preventing the DHS OIG from releasing this report to Congress,” Loudermilk said. “Given the events of July 13, 2024, yet another security failure by the U.S. Secret Service (“USSS”) to detect and prevent a serious threat to a protectee, there is absolutely no justification for your delay.” Related: Jan. 6 07/29/2024 Why Are Trump-Hating Democrats Being Considered for the Investigation of Trump Assassination Attempt?

#2 Don't think for a moment we haven't noticed Congress has waited until just before the election to "investigate" J6 coverups. Meanwhile protesters are bankrupted and jailed for misdemeanors. |
