Secret Service Says RNC Security Plan ‘Strengthened’ In Wake of Assassination Attempt
The director’s comments were made after the agency previously said no changes had been made in wake of shooting

The U.S. Secret Service director said in a statement that the agency is confident in the security plan put in place for the Republican National Convention (RNC) in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, this week. The agency said security has been strengthened in the wake of the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump on July 13.

Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle said in the July 15 statement that additional security enhancements were provided to former President Trump’s security detail in June and that the agency had also implemented changes to his security detail since the assassination attempt to “ensure his continued protection for the convention and the remainder of the campaign.”

“I am confident in the security plan our Secret Service RNC coordinator and our partners have put in place, which we have reviewed and strengthened in the wake of Saturday’s shooting,” Ms. Cheatle said.

“The security plans for National Special Security Events are designed to be flexible. As the conventions progress, and in accordance with the direction of the President, the Secret Service will continuously adapt our operations as necessary in order to ensure the highest level of safety and security for convention attendees, volunteers and the City of Milwaukee.”

It is the first statement from the director since the July 13 shooting at a Trump campaign rally in Pennsylvania.

Ms. Cheatle defended the agency’s response to the assassination attempt, stating that personnel moved “quickly” during the incident and that the counter sniper team “neutralized the shooter” while agents implemented “protective measures to ensure the safety of former president Donald Trump.”

“Since the shooting, I have been in constant contact with Secret Service personnel in Pennsylvania who worked to maintain the integrity of the crime scene until the FBI assumed its role as the lead investigating agency into the assassination attempt,” she said in the statement. “I have also been coordinating with the protective detail for former President Trump and have briefed President Biden on the details of the incident.”

Ms. Cheatle said the Secret Service was working with all involved law enforcement agencies to “understand what happened, how it happened,” and how they can “prevent an incident like this from ever taking place again,” noting that the agency understands the importance of an independent review directed by President Joe Biden.

Kimberly Cheatle and Joe Biden. Security is in their capable hands. I'm confident. Are you? Cheatle shouldn't just be fired: she ought to be tarred and feathered and forced to walk the crowded streets for a week with no food or water. Or rest.
