Kansas senator calls for 'crisis intervention team' to take over Secret Service

Sen. Roger Marshall, R-Kan., said Wednesday called for a "crisis intervention team" to take over the Secret Service following the security failures when former President Donald Trump was almost assassinated at a Pennsylvania rally.

"I've seen enough... it's time that we need a crisis intervention team to come in there and take over the Secret Service," Marshall said on the "John Solomon Reports" podcast. "This acting administrator is prejudiced."

On Tuesday, the Senate held a hearing on the attempted assassination of Trump with acting Secret Service Director Ronald Rowe Jr. testifying.

Last week, the House held other hearings on the security failures that failed to yield substantial information. Former Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle resigned shortly after her appearance before the House Oversight Committee. 

Some points that were brought up regarding the July 13 rally included an agent not being on the building that the shooter used to aim at Trump because it has a sloped roof and local police's lack of communication with Secret Service.

Marshall said that new management needs to be brought to the Secret Service. 

"I think you have to bring in an outsider," he said. "You know... I think of a Mike Pompeo or a Kash Patel... someone like that [who's] an expert in this field, but someone that's from outside that doesn't have that same cultural mentality going on."

He then brought up the fact that the Secret Service has a high turnover rate.
