Republican Senators Confront Secret Service Director Over Trump Assassination Attempt

At the Republican National Convention, Senators Barrasso and Blackburn berate Secret Service director Kimberly Cheatle for security lapses that almost led to an assassination attempt on former President Trump. The confrontation took place at the Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee where Trump and J.D.
