A U.S. Senate committee released a report on July 13, 2025, detailing a series of preventable failures by the U.S. Secret Service that nearly resulted in the assassination of former President Donald Trump during a campaign rally in Pennsylvania in 2024. The report characterized these failures as a "cascade" and "stunning," highlighting lapses in communication and discipline within the agency. It also criticized the lack of firings or accountability measures following the incident. Separately, a report commissioned by the UK Home Secretary into the Prevent counter-terrorism programme found that the scheme failed to stop attackers Axel Rudakubana and Ali Harbi Ali, who were responsible for murders including that of MP Sir David Amess. The report recommended expanding Prevent to address individuals fascinated by violence even if not motivated by a specific ideology, emphasizing the need for improved measures to detect potential threats to public safety.
