McConnell calls for “new leadership” at Secret Service after briefing

Shortly after a briefing with the Secret Service and the FBI, Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell called for new leadership at the Secret Service.

“Last week’s near-assassination of former President Trump was a grave attack on American democracy. The nation deserves answers and accountability,” he said in a statement. “New leadership at the Secret Service would be an important step in that direction.”
