House Hearing Erupts Into Screaming Match As Secret Service Director, GOP Rep. Fallon Trade Verbal Blows [WATCH]

Tempers flared during a tense U.S. House task force hearing on assassination attempts against former President Donald Trump. Acting Secret Service (USSS) Director Ronald Rowe and Representative Pat Fallon (R-TX) engaged in a heated exchange today that highlighted divisions over security practices and political accountability.

The confrontation began as Fallon presented a photograph of President Joe Biden with Trump at the 9/11 commemoration, attempting to critique Rowe’s handling of Secret Service duties. Fallon’s implication was that Rowe and his team failed to adequately prioritize Trump’s protection. Rowe pushed back strongly, asserting that the Secret Service was fulfilling its duties professionally.

A contentious back-and-forth ensued, with Fallon demanding answers about Rowe’s actions on significant days of national remembrance and alleging that her decisions placed agents and protected individuals in harm’s way. Rowe, visibly frustrated, accused Fallon of using 9/11 for political theater, saying, “Do not invoke 9/11 for political purposes.”

The exchange escalated as Fallon insisted that the American people deserved clear answers to basic questions about Trump’s protection. At one point, Fallon said, “I am an elected member of Congress asking serious questions for the American people,” emphasizing his role in holding public servants accountable. Rowe’s retorts underscored his defense of the Secret Service’s professionalism, saying accusations of negligence were unwarranted.

The exchange reached its peak when Rowe rebuked Fallon for questioning his credibility, stating that he endangered agents by misrepresenting their operations. Fallon countered by alleging leadership failures that compromised the safety of top officials, including the former president and Vice President Kamala Harris.
