The Secret Service’s acting director told lawmakers Tuesday that he’s “ashamed” by his agency’s failures at Donald Trump’s deadly rally in Pennsylvania.
Ronald Rowe Jr. testified that he “cannot defend” how his agency allowed Thomas Crooks, 20, to get on a rooftop within 400 yards of Trump with a clear line of sight on July 13.
Rowe said he traveled to Butler, Pennsylvania, to see “how our protection failed” in the shooting’s aftermath. What he witnessed left him baffled, he said.
