“An independent panel reviewing the failures that led to the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump in July called on the Secret Service to replace its leadership with people from the private sector and focus almost exclusively on its protective mission,” the New York Times reports.
Washington Post: “In its 52-page report, the panel wrote that ‘the Secret Service as an agency requires fundamental reform to carry out its mission. Without that reform, the Independent Review Panel believes another Butler can and will happen again.’”
From the report:”The Secret Service has become bureaucratic, complacent, and static even though risks have multiplied and technology has evolved. It is simply unacceptable for the Service to have anything less than a paramount focus on its protective mission, particularly while that protective mission function is presently suboptimal.”
