House Judiciary chair Jim Jordan spoke on Wednesday in a hearing aimed at questioning FBI Director Christopher Wray about the investigation into the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump on July 13 at a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.

“There are a lot of unanswered questions about the security failures that day,” Jordan said in his opening statement. “Questions about decisions made before the rally, questions about actions during the rally and questions about statements made after the event concluded.”

Corey Comperatore, a firefighter and father, was killed by the shooter at the rally.

On Monday, the House Oversight Committee grilled Kimberly Cheatle, director of the U.S. Secret Service at the time of the deadly shooting. Members on both sides of the aisle called for her resignation and she announced Tuesday she was stepping down. Cheatle repeatedly referred lawmakers seeking details to the investigation being carried out by the FBI.
