On 7/30/2024, in a U.S. Senate hearing, Secret Service Acting Director Ronald Rowe told U.S. Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Missouri, those on the ground making decisions that day have not been fired. According to Hawley, his whistle-blower “is telling us more than you are.” Rowe is bound by rules restricting what can and can’t be said during an active investigation. Rowe said that he has been “transparent and forthcoming,” which appeared to trigger Hawley, who began shouting. “Your agency has not been transparent and forthcoming! Please, let’s not go there,” said Hawley. “I have been forthcoming,” Rowe said. “That remains to be seen. You have been on the job a few days. You fired nobody. The drones — were you offered drones?”
In his questioning, Senator Hawley asked Acting Director Rowe for names of those who were in charge of multiple security efforts the day the former President was shot, and Acting Director Rowe declined to identify them because they “are still operational, still doing investigations.” “Isn’t the fact that a former President was shot, that a good American is dead, that other Americans were critically wounded, isn’t that enough mission failure for you to say that [they] should probably be fired?” Senator Hawley asked. Acting Director Rowe continued to deny identification of those in charge and emphasized that he refrain from making any judgements while the investigation continues.
“What more do you need to investigate to know that there were critical enough failures that some individuals ought to be held accountable?”
