Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas on July 15 said of the assassination attempt against former President Donald Trump that it “cannot happen,” adding that President Joe Biden has initiated an independent review into the matter.
“When I say that something like this cannot happen, we are speaking of a failure,” he told CNN, when pressed further. “We are going to analyze through an independent review how that occurred, why it occurred, and make recommendations and findings to make sure it doesn’t happen again. I couldn’t be clearer.”
