WASHINGTON " The shooting and wounding of former President Donald Trump in an attempted assassination attempt was "preventable," a bipartisan House task force said Monday. The task force headed by Reps. Mike Kelly, R-Pa., and Jason Crow, D-Colo., echoed many of the findings from previous reviews by an independent Department of Homeland Security panel, a Senate inquiry and a Secret Service internal review. Trump was shot in the ear at a rally July 13 in Butler, Pennsylvania, and a spectator was killed before a Secret Service sniper shot the gunman. The task force findings based on 23 interviews with local law enforcement officials and a review of thousands of pages of documents included:
Inadequate planning and coordination between the Secret Service and local law enforcement officers, including the lack of a unified command post.
