Acting Secret Service Director Ronald Rowe during a Senate hearing Tuesday refused to pinpoint who denied requests by former President Donald Trump’s security detail over the last two years.
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) asked Rowe about a July 20, 2024, Washington Post report that alleged that “top officials of the U.S. Secret Service repeatedly denied requests for additional resources and personnel” sought by Trump’s detail in the past two years.
Rowe responded, “There are times when assets were unavailable and not able to be filled, and those gaps were staffed with state and local law enforcement tactical assets.”
Cruz asked Rowe who makes the decision at the Secret Service to deny those requests.
Rowe did not give a person’s name, but instead cited a “process.”
That stupid process is coneviently used???
“The process is that a detail will make a request for either staffing, technical assets that is handled between the field office and the detail. It goes up to a logistics office between–,” he began.
Cruz interrupted, asking, “OK, so there’s a bureaucracy. Is there a decision maker?”
