Biden DHS Alleged To Have Tried To Suppress Critical Jan. 6 Report
Story by Eireann Van Natta • 15h
Inspector General Joseph Cuffari accused Biden’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) of trying to suppress a report concerning the Secret Service’s response on Jan. 6, 2021.
Jonathan Meyer, DHS’ head lawyer, vehemently denied the allegation and stated DHS does not want to prevent Congress from reading the entire report. He added that DHS will redact “security sensitive” information pertaining to the Secret Service’s operations, according to a June 25 letter reviewed by POLITICO.
The Secret Service falls under the DHS, and an anonymous DHS official told POLITICO the inspector general “has exclusive authority to determine when to release a report to Congress.”
Cuffari, an appointee of former President Donald Trump, has opened two investigations into the Secret Service’s security role regarding Trump’s attempted assassination thus far. Some Republicans, however, claim DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas has stalled these assessments, specifically the report titled “USSS Preparation for and Response to the Events of January 6, 2021.”
