Secret Service won’t blame local law enforcement for agency’s failure at Trump rally, acting director says

“In no way should any state or local agency supporting us in Butler on July 13th be held responsible for our Secret Service failure,” Rowe told reporters Friday.

“We will earn back your trust,” Rowe said.
