A House Republican lawmaker is alleging that Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas denied stronger Secret Service protection for former President Trump multiple times.
Rep. Mike Waltz, R-Fla., made the accusation hours after Trump was grazed by a bullet at his Saturday Pennsylvania rally.
"I have very reliable sources telling me there have been repeated requests for stronger secret service protection for President Trump. Denied by Secretary Mayorkas," Waltz wrote on X.
The House Homeland Security Committee is planning on investigating reports that Trump was denied stronger Secret Service protection before the rally, a source told Fox News Digital.

Both Mayorkas and SS Director Kimberly Cheatle need to be looking for jobs ASAP. Mayorkas is a pure out criminal thug, both keeping the border open for millions of criminals and TRYING to get Trump and RFK, Jr. assassinated.

Either they are undermanned or incompetent. To not clear the rooftop of a building less than 150 yards away is a stunning breech of protocol.

The Secret Service, in their many episodes of failures and incompetence, reports to Homeland Security Secretary. Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro "Monster" Mayorkas. Until he is removed from that position, he will continue to commit criminal and treasonous acts the U.S. Constitution.
February, 2021
Here are the six GOP senators who broke with a majority in their caucus to confirm Mayorkas:
Sen. Shelley Capito, R-W.Va.
Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine
Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska
Sen. Dan Sullivan, R-Alaska
Sen. Rob Portman, R-Ohio
Sen. Mitt Romney, R-Utah
They will step on your throat if you allow it.

Cheatle, the Director of the Secret Service, is a huge advocate for diversity. If there is one job that should require intelligence and competence it’s the Secret Service. This woman needs to resign. Now.

At least dereliction and/or or depraved indifference.
I'm afraid if anyone goes down for this, it will be an innocent SS agent just to show Cheatle and Mayorkas did Something.

Look Biden and his crew, along with the leftist Democrats have been doing everything they could think of to destroy Trump including attempting to bankrupt him and put him in jail, that any backtracking with Biden by using a bogus “unity” strategy through hidden teleprompters must be considered to be complete political BS. Chances are after that bullet went through Trump’s ear and he stood up with his arm and fist in the air, urging his supporters to “fight” just won Trump the upcoming election, and the leftist Democrats know that.

Trump supporters will pay for a trustworthy protection detail. Tell the SS and Mayorkas to back off!

The only threat to democracy that I can see is Mayorkas.
And Schumer killed his impeachment.

It aggravates the heck out of me that Tom Homan (evidently Deep State hack) was praising the Secret Service...They musta been in on the attempt, since Rally-goers pointed out the sniper well before the first shots were taken!

Assuming this is a troubled lone-wolf character who saw an opening and took it. Suicide by cop. Go out in a blaze of glory mentality.
Hard to believe he left nothing behind to explain his action. And if he did and what he says doesn’t fit the narrative, will we know? Secret Service and FBI lead the investigation. That gives me pause. If information is held back, then by the time Congress gets involved, forget about learning what really happened.
