Secret Service failures during assassination attempt similar to those in hidden Jan. 6 report, sources say

Sniper team ‘deconfliction’ and failed coordination among Secret Service and local officers allowed the would-be assassin to take the first shot, experts told Blaze News.

Communication failures by the U.S. Secret Service on Jan. 6, 2021, that are described in a still-secret inspector general report could relate directly to mistakes made on July 13 leading up to the attempted assassination of former President Donald J. Trump, congressional sources told Blaze News.

The Jan. 6 report from Department of Homeland Security Inspector General Joseph V. Cuffari was submitted for review in April but is being held up in the office of DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, a senior congressional aide told Blaze News on the condition of anonymity. The Secret Service is part of the DHS.

“They don’t want it out. They don’t want it publicized. They don’t like the conclusions,” the source said. “And that was before this [shooting] happened.”

Before being sent to Mayorkas, the Jan. 6 Office of Inspector General report was reviewed by Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle, the source said. The OIG’s Jan. 6 investigation has been ongoing for more than three years.

  1. I swear, if the Biden USSS had little people and paraplegics as agents, they would have been assigned to Trump’s protective detail.
