Enclosed are all records Grassley has obtained to date

WASHINGTON – Text messages, bodycam footage, law enforcement briefing materials and an after-action report – all obtained by Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) – paint the “most detailed picture yet” of the security failures surrounding the assassination attempt on former President Trump.

Grassley has led Congress and federal agencies in providing the public the clearest account of the lead-up and aftermath of the shooting at Trump’s Butler, Pennsylvania rally on July 13. His oversight reveals local law enforcement were aware of gunman Thomas Matthew Crooks’ suspicious presence more than 90 minutes before he opened fire. Local law enforcement officers had communicated Crooks’ presence to their federal counterparts ahead of Trump’s appearance on stage.

Below is a summary of all records Grassley has received detailing local law enforcement’s planning and communications regarding the Trump event. Grassley’s oversight is ongoing.
