A frightening shooting incident at the White House Correspondents’ Association (WHCA) Dinner is raising serious questions about presidential security and event safety. Former U.S. Secret Service agent Matthew W. Doherty, who spent 21 years in the agency and led the National Threat Assessment Center, joins to unpack what happened. Drawing on his experience, he examines how the suspect managed to get so close to the main ballroom and why so many top officials, including the president, vice president, and cabinet members, were gathered in one unsecured building. He also explains what security measures may need to be put in place following the incident.
