Secret Service chief warns of Trump shooting report's "impact on agency morale" in message to staff
CBSN
Washington — Secret Service Acting Director Ronald Rowe told his workforce on Thursday that he is "deeply concerned" about the impact that an independent review panel's findings about the July assassination attempt against former President Donald Trump will have on the agency's morale, according to a copy of the internal message obtained by CBS News.
In an email to Secret Service employees, Rowe said that he has convened teams to discuss the findings of the bipartisan four-member panel. The report concluded that the agency suffers from "deep flaws" and called for it to undergo "fundamental reform" to carry out its mission of protecting top government officials around the world, including the sitting and former U.S. presidents.
The review, conducted at the direction of President Biden, was at times a scathing rebuke of the Secret Service and its culture. The panel's members said there must be an overhaul of Secret Service leadership and a refocusing on its "core protective mission" to mitigate the issues it identified.
