Acting Secret Service Director Ronald Rowe and Texas Rep. Pat Fallon (R) got into a shouting match on the Hill on Thursday during a hearing on the failures of the Secret Service to protect Donald Trump in Butler, PA earlier this year.
According to The New York Post, “Fallon lambasted Rowe for waiting days before visiting the Butler, Pa., site where Trump was nearly killed on July 13 — and then presented a photo showing the acting director near the incoming president instead of his detail during the Republican’s visit to New York to mark the anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.”
“Who is usually at an event like this closest to the President of the United States?” Fallon asked Rowe, pointing to the photo where Trump was seen without an agent next to him. “Were you the special agent in charge of the detail that day?”
“That is the day where we remember more than 3,000 people that have died on 911. I actually responded to Ground Zero,” Rowe said, getting heated with Fallon. “I am a public servant who has served this nation,” he added.
The exchange quickly devolved into a shouting match between Fallon and Rowe.
