So the OP (see below), Rep. Pat Fallon, is asking about an event that happened in Butler, PA back in July.
The Valued Poster, Secret Service director Ronald Rowe, responded talking about 9/11 in NYC.
So the question is: How many points would he receive on EKKY for a thread hijack?

FIREWORKS! Acting Secret Service Director Ronald Rowe Goes Bonkers and Starts a Shouting Match With Rep. Pat Fallon During Hearing on Trump Assassination Attempts After Being Showed a Damning Picture
Cullen Linebarger Dec. 5, 2024
An unbelievably explosive exchange erupted in the House of Representatives this morning involving disgraced acting Secret Service director Ronald Rowe and a Texas Republican congressman.
As the New York Post reported, Rep. Pat Fallon read Rowe the riot act during a hearing on the two assassination attempts against Donald Trump.
After slamming Rowe for waiting multiple days before visiting the Butler, Pa., the site where Trump was nearly gunned down by a Democrat donor named Thomas Crooks in July, things then took an even uglier turn when Fallon displayed a picture of Trump and Biden at Ground Zero.
“Do you recognize this photo?” Fallon asked. After Rowe confirmed he did, Fallon inquired who is usually in charge of an event like that.
Rowe answered that the special agent was in charge of the details. When Fallon asked whether Rowe was in charge of the detail, the acting Secret Service director refused to answer. He instead demanded House staffers put up a photo of a circle around him rather than answer the question directly and went crazy.
“Congressman, what you are not seeing is the spec. of the detail out the picture!” he bellowed. “And that is the day where we remember the more than 3000 people that have died on 9/11.
“I actually responded to Ground Zero!” he continued yelling. “I was there going through the ashes of the World Trade Center! I was there.”
“I’m not asking you that!” Fallon screamed back. “Were you the special agent in charge?! You were not!”
Rowe was, in fact, a mere dignitary, which made the photo so damning. It is simply inexcusable for the person in charge of safeguarding the lives of Trump and Biden.
“Show some respect!” Rowe yelled. “Show some respect for our Secret Service members who died on 9/11!! Do not invoke 9/11 for political purposes!”
“Oh, I am not!” Fallon retorted.
“You are out of line!” Rowe screamed.
After Rowe screams more, Fallon states that he is trying to ask a serious question about why Rowe was there before the acting director starts screaming again.
Fallon and Rowe proceed to scream at each other for nearly 30 seconds before order is restored...
