Sen. Richard Blumenthal on Tuesday accused the Harris-Biden administration’s Department of Homeland Security of “stonewalling” a congressional investigation into the first assassination attempt against former President Donald Trump. 

“I am reaching the point of total outrage, because the response from the Department of Homeland Security has been totally lacking,” the Connecticut Democrat told reporters on Capitol Hill.  

“In fact, I think it’s tantamount to stonewalling in many respects,” Blumenthal added. 

Blumenthal, the chairman of the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee’s Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, argued that DHS has been “almost derelict in its duty by resisting our requests for documents, evidence and information that are necessary to investigate” the July 13 shooting at a Trump rally in Butler, Pa., which left the former president and two others wounded and one man dead.
