The House voted on Wednesday to create a bipartisan task force to investigate the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump. The move comes as lawmakers seek answers and accountability after the 2024 Republican presidential candidate was shot at during a rally in Pennsylvania this month. A resolution to establish the task force was approved in an overwhelmingly bipartisan vote of 416 to 0. The House task force will be made up of seven Republicans and six Democrats and will have subpoena authority, House Speaker Mike Johnson and House Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries announced this week.

Johnson told CNN on Wednesday that the appointments to the task force will be announced on Thursday. Jeffries’ nominations to the task force will be handled “after consultation” with Johnson.

    Just what we don't need, another House investigation. We have agencies for that, try legislating!

    Is this committee going to address how dangerous Trump's outdoor rallies are?

    Bipartisan grandstanding on the behalf of Donnie's little "nicked" ear.
