Congress Plans to Investigate the Possible Assassination Attempt at Trump’s Golf Course Too

The House approved the task force in July to specifically investigate the assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania, and it’s unclear if a new vote will be needed to expand its scope officially.

The House task force investigating the July assassination attempt against Donald Trump will now also formally investigate the apparent assassination attempt at Trump’s Florida golf club, NOTUS has learned.

The specifics of what that will look like are still being ironed out, per a source familiar.

Rep. Mike Kelly, the chair of the task force, told NOTUS he had a phone conversation with Speaker Mike Johnson “for about 10 minutes or so” on Monday morning, during which Johnson said that he intends to have the task force investigate both incidents.
