MILWAUKEE — The US Secret Service insists the agency is “fully prepared” to maintain security at the Republican National Convention, and that it’s not changing its protocols even after the assassination attempt on Donald Trump.
“We’re fully prepared and have a comprehensive security plan in place, and we’re ready to go,” Audrey Gibson-Cicchino, the Secret Service’s RNC Coordinator, tells reporters, expressing confidence that the event will be protected by the “highest level security.”
