Rep. Andy Biggs (R-Ariz.) joined his congressional colleagues in quizzing Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle on Monday, asking the Biden official if she could verify the attempted Donald Trump assassin was working alone.
We just watched the Secret Service Director refuse to answer whether Trump’s shooter was acting alone
She said they should “ask the FBI”
That’s DC legalese for “no he was not acting alone but I can’t say that”

Biggs told the director, “It is unfathomable that a 20-year-old on the radar of Secret Service and local law enforcement before President Trump went on stage was able to climb on the roof of a building with a rifle and fire off multiple rounds before he was neutralized.”
“Was Mr. Crooks acting alone?” he asked Cheatle.
“Again, I would have to refer you to the FBI’s investigation,” she answered.
“Was he just a lone gunman?” the congressman asked.
Cheatle again responded, “I would have to refer you to the FBI’s investigation for motive.”
