Senator Josh Hawley (R-MO) was denied access to the site of the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump in Butler County, Pennsylvania, on Friday.
Hawley, who also sent a letter to DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas demanding he account for numerous apparent security failures that led up to the assassination attempt, described what happened during a Friday evening appearance on "Hannity."
"As the Senate prepares for hearings, today I went to Butler County to see the site of the shooting myself – and FBI told me to leave," Hawley said in a tweet.
Hawley, who had permission from the local security operator to be on the site, was told by the FBI to leave. "They said, ‘get out of here, you shouldn’t be on this site, we don’t want you here,'" Hawley said.
The Secret Service has been in the hot seat since last Saturday, facing a number of questions beginning with how Trump's would-be assassin was able to attain an elevated position less than 200 yards and with a direct line of sight to where the former president was speaking.
Hawley's visit to the site comes as the Senate prepares for hearings on the matter. The FBI has been criticized for its handling of the situation, with some questioning why the agency did not have more security on the site the night of the assassination attempt.
Hawley's call for answers is not the first time he has been critical of the FBI. In the past, he has called for an investigation into the agency's handling of the Russia investigation and the FBI's raid on former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort's home.
The attempted assassination of Trump has been a topic of much discussion in recent days, with many Republicans calling for increased security for the former president. Some have even called for Trump to be given Secret Service protection, which he lost when he left office in January 2021.
Hawley's visit to the site of the assassination attempt is a reminder of the importance of security for our nation's leaders. It is also a reminder that the FBI must be held accountable for its actions.
As the Senate prepares for hearings on the matter, it is important that the American people get answers to the many questions that have been raised about the attempted assassination of Trump. We must ensure that our nation's leaders are safe and that those who seek to harm them are brought to justice.
