<p>Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) called on Congress to yank funding away from the U.S. Secret Service after it failed to prevent former President Donald Trump from being shot during an assassination attempt last week at a political rally in Pennsylvania.</p>
<p>Roy made the remarks during a Friday interview with Fox News host Laura Ingraham on &#8220;The Ingraham Angle&#8221; while discussing the tragic shooting, which resulted in one person being instantly killed in the crowd and two more critically injured.</p>
<p>“Right now the president of the United States – the former president, and hopefully soon-to-be present of the United States – is alive not because of what Secret Service did, but because he providentially turned his head,&#8221; Roy said. &#8220;That’s the truth. The fact is the American people are sick of it. They are sick of Lloyd Austin still having a job after Afghanistan. Pete Buttigieg after derailments and boats hitting in bridges. Sick of the FBI and sick of the intel community – all of these people keep their jobs. And now the Secret Service endangers the former president and the sitting Republican nominee and they are acting like nothing happened.</p>
<p>Roy highlighted the Secret Service&#8217;s numerous failures at the rally, including doing nothing when he flew a drone over the rally to do surveillance.</p>
<p>&#8220;But here’s the deal, we have to stop funding it,&#8221; he added. &#8220;We have to stop giving these people jobs. We have to hold them accountable. And to your point, I’m glad Mike Johnson said we need one task force. We need to funnel it through one organized effort in the House.&#8221;</p>
