House Oversight issues sweeping records request to Secret Service ahead of hearing – Washington Examiner

The House Oversight Committee asked the Secret Service on Monday to provide a wide range of material related to the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump ahead of a planned hearing next week.

Chairman James Comer (R-KY) and other Republican members wrote a letter to Director Kimberly Cheatle asking her for a list of law enforcement officers working at the Butler, Pennsylvania, rally, where a gunman opened fire over the weekend, killing one, critically injuring two, and causing a minor injury to Trump.

The lawmakers also asked Cheatle for any audio and video recordings from the event that were in the Secret Service’s possession, as well as all internal documents and communications the agency had from the event.

Cheatle is set to appear before the committee for a hearing on July 22, according to an aide.
