Lauren Boebert hopeful that Elon Musk can hold Secret Service accountable
Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) wants answers after former President Donald Trump was the target of a second assassination plot at Mar-a-Lago — and she wants to enlist the help of tech billionaire Elon Musk.
Boebert weighed in on the matter during a Monday evening interview with the right-wing cable network Newsmax.
"Do you have confidence that the Secret Service can keep President Trump safe?" asked the host.
"I am a member of the Oversight and Accountability Committee and I do not have any such confidence," said Boebert. "We had Director Cheadle in the day before she resigned. She refused to answer any of our questions. She lied before us, you know, or just simply acted like she didn't have the answers and only the FBI did when she absolutely saw the details that we were requesting from her and we have not seen any accountability since now."

"President Trump says that he's going to create a commission when he's president, a commission to oversee the federal government, hold them accountable whether it's for their spending or their actions and have, possibly, Elon Musk as the director of this commission," said Boebert. "You know, we used to call this Congress, but unfortunately, the agencies that Congress has allocated taxpayer money to and has authorized to exist refuses to answer to us."
This all comes a day after Musk, who has endorsed Trump, made a post to his X social media platform noting that no one had made assassination threats against President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, before deleting it amid a firestorm of backlash.
