The Secret Service is facing heightened scrutiny following an assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump during a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania on July 13. The attempt, which resulted in a wound to Trump's ear, has led to President Biden ordering an independent review of security measures. Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas has announced a bipartisan, independent review panel, including experts such as Janet Napolitano and Mark Filip. Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle has expressed support for the review and the establishment of a Blue Ribbon Panel to investigate the agency's actions. The review aims to examine the Secret Service's response and improve future security protocols.
