Senator Josh Hawley (R-MO) went to Butler County, Pennsylvania, on Friday in search of answers in the wake of last week’s attempt on the life of former President Donald Trump — and when he got there, he said the FBI made him leave.
Hawley, who also sent a letter to DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas demanding he account for numerous apparent security failures that led up to the assassination attempt, described what happened during a Friday evening appearance on “Hannity.”
“As the Senate prepares for hearings, today I went to Butler County to see the site of the shooting myself — and FBI told me to leave. We need ANSWERS. I won’t stop pushing until we get them,” Hawley captioned a video of the exchange.
