Josh Hawley: Whistleblower Reveals Secret Service Declined Drone Support Offer from Local Law Enforcement Prior to Rally

Senator Josh Hawley (R-MO) has sent a letter to Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas of the Department of Homeland Security, highlighting new allegations from a whistleblower regarding the security measures taken at former President Trump’s rally in Butler, Pennsylvania on July 13, 2024.

In his letter, Hawley states:

“Dear Secretary Mayorkas, Since I last wrote to you on July 22, my office has received new whistleblower allegations that further call into question your department’s preparations. The American people deserve answers about your historic failure to protect former President Trump on July 13, 2024.”

According to FBI Director Christopher Wray’s recent testimony to Congress, the assailant used a drone to survey the rally site in preparation for his attack.
