Writing to the Inspector General of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Senator Hawley requested responsive records related to the Secret Service\u2019s staggering security failures that day.\n\n\u201cThis incident represents a staggering security failure by the U.S. Secret Service and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to appropriately protect the former president and prevent violence at a peaceful political event. A host of critical questions remain unanswered, and it is vital that the American people know the truth as soon as possible,\u201d Senator Hawley wrote.\n\nSenator Hawley also sent a letter to BlackRock CEO Larry Fink, requesting that his investment firm immediately disclose to Congress any known information related to the shooter, who appeared in a 2022 company advertisement.\n\n\u201cYou must immediately preserve all records relating to this advertisement and your company\u2019s association with Thomas Crooks, including any and all communications your company has had with him, his family, or his school,\u201d wrote Senator Hawley.\n\nSenator Hawley has previously demanded that the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee launch a comprehensive, transparent investigation into Saturday\u2019s assassination attempt with sworn testimony from DHS and Secret Service officials. That investigation was confirmed this week along with plans to feature public testimony from agency leadership.\n\nSenator Hawley, a member of the Homeland Security Committee, continues to investigate this incident to ensure the American people learn the truth. Any whistleblowers seeking to contact his office to make protected disclosures should call (202) 224-6154 or email tips@hawley.senate.gov.", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-06T18:32:29Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://www.hawley.senate.gov/hawley-requests-more-records-behind-assassination-attempt-on-president-trump-opens-office-whistleblower-tip-line/"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 2.2730459459125996, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
