Rob Law, the director of the Center for Homeland Security and Immigration at the America First Policy Institute (AFPI) joins the show for a discussion revolving around the performance of the Secret Service head during recent hearings, highlighting her unpreparedness and the bipartisan call for her resignation. Law criticizes the Biden-Harris administration for not holding officials accountable for their failures. He mentions that even Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez asked a smart question during the hearings, which was a rare moment of bipartisan agreement.
Law emphasizes the need for accountability and transparency, especially in the context of the Secret Service. He argues that while some information must remain classified, there is plenty that can be shared with the public without compromising security. He draws a comparison to the transparency shown during President Reagan’s shooting incident.
The interview also touches on the lack of responsibility taken by the Secret Service head, who did not even visit the site of the incident. Law points out that this is not the first failure under her watch, and there have been multiple incidents with little to no repercussions. He praises the rank-and-file Secret Service agents but criticizes the political appointees in the Biden-Harris administration for their incompetence and lack of accountability.
Law explains that the America First Policy Institute is a think tank advocating for policies that prioritize the American people. Many of its members worked in the Trump administration and aim to continue promoting policies that were effective during that time. The institute covers various areas, including border security, healthcare, the economy, and energy independence.
