00:00The Secret Service's solemn mission is to protect our nation's leaders.
00:19On July 13th, we failed.
00:22As a director of the United States Secret Service, I take full responsibility for any
00:27security lapse of our agency.
00:2915 out of 16 kill shots and the one I missed would have hit the president's ear.
00:35That's a 94% success rate and that shooter was a better shot than me.
00:41It is a miracle President Trump wasn't killed.
00:44Corey, compare it, Torrey's life is over because that damn shooter made it on the roof.
00:49And it wasn't the roof that was dangerous, it was the nut job on top of the roof.
00:52You know what else is dangerous?
00:54I believe your horrifying ineptitude and your lack of skilled leadership is a disgrace.
00:58Your obfuscating today is shameful and you should be fired immediately and go back to
01:03garden Doritos.
01:04Mr. Chairman, I yield back.
01:06Had the Trump detail requested additional resources?
01:09What I can tell you is that for the event on July 13th, the details that were requested,
01:15the assets that were requested for that day were given.
01:18Several hours before you sent it to this committee as being political, yes or no?
01:25I have no idea how my statement got out.
01:28Well, that's.
01:30Have you provided all audio and video recordings in your possession to this committee as we
01:34asked on July 15th?
01:36Yes or no?
01:37I would have to get back to you.
01:38That is a no.
01:39You're full of today.
01:40You're just being completely dishonest, Mr. Chairman, Mr. Chairman, do you have a timeline
01:46that you do you have a timeline at all from from any of the day?
01:51I have a timeline that does not have specifics.
01:57That's shocking.
01:59That is absolutely unacceptable.
02:03That means you are a failure at your job.
02:05If there were over 400 million guns on the streets, if all of those guns were machine
02:09guns, would that make your job harder?
02:12To protect people?
02:14Again, I think weapons, if all of those guns were rocket propelled grenades, would that
02:19make your job harder?
02:21Yes, sir.
02:22Yes.
02:23OK, thank you.
02:24Perfect.
02:25This is not a trick question.
02:27We don't have any answers for the American people and we don't have that confidence that
02:32you can lead the Secret Service to restore the confidence.
02:36The assassination attempt of former President Donald Trump on July 13th is the most significant
02:41operational failure of the Secret Service in decades.
02:46And I am keeping him and his family in my thoughts.
02:49We must learn what happened and I will move heaven and earth to ensure that an incident
02:54like July 13th does not happen again.
