As authorities investigate a second deadly incident involving a former president, the Secret Service is feeling the brunt of the fallout.

President Biden After Sunday's incident, Biden said the Secret Service “needs more help” to protect Trump. “Let me be very clear: The Secret Service needs more help, and I think Congress should meet their needs,” Biden told reporters on Monday.

Representative Tim Burchett(R-Tenn.) accused the Secret Service of being “compromising” and claiming it “lacks leadership.” Burchett's full statement

President Trump's security concerns are clear The Secret Service has come under intense scrutiny after a gunman fired a bullet that grazed President Trump's ear during a rally in Pennsylvania in July.

Secret Service Director at the time Kimberly Cheatle He was grilled in Congress about the incident and ultimately resigned.

Sunday's events have reinforced concerns that threats against President Trump and other politicians are not likely to go away anytime soon and raised questions about whether enough precautions are being taken.

Leaders of both parties immediately called for de-escalating tensions. Trump has avoided outdoor rallies since the first assassination attempt on him, but it was unclear how Sunday's incident would affect the candidates' schedules going forward.

In other political news, former President TrumpOver the weekend, she garnered attention when she posted on her Truth Social page, “I hate Taylor Swift!”

I wonder what triggered this feeling…Swift endorsed Democratic candidate Vice President Harris after her debate with President Trump last week.

Watching Harris campaign strategy meetingHarris' campaign mocked Trump in a pun-filled statement.

The following is an excerpt“The not-at-all-fine president spent this week sorting through his emotions and whining about the champagne controversy…His incoherent talking, yelling and constant conspiracy theories have left many wondering if he's 'too emotional' to be president.”

Lawmakers in Washington eagerly await the speaker's appointment. Mike JohnsonIt's the Louisiana Republican's next move to avert a government shutdown at the end of the month after a previous partisan plan failed.

If you don't succeed at first, right?“The speaker signaled he may try again this week to pass a partisan stopgap bill, but it would face strong headwinds in the House as critics, particularly Democrats and fiscal hawks, solidify their opposition.”

Prime Minister Johnson told reporters last week that he intended to use the weekend to “build agreement” on the plan.

Possible Plan B and Plan CJohnson might support a full extension to fund the government for another three months, which would likely win Democratic support but anger conservatives and President Trump. He could also try to pass a six-month extension, but the same dynamics would be there.
