Rep. Jason Crow, D-Colo., a ranking member on the House Task Force on the Attempted Assassination of Donald J. Trump, right, listens as Task Force chairman Rep. Mike Kelly, R-Pa., adjourns a hearing on the Secret Service’s security failures regarding the assassination attempts on President-elect Trump, in Butler, Pa., July 13, 2024, and West Palm Beach, Fla., Sept. 15, 2024, on Capitol Hill, Thursday, Dec. 5, 2024, in Washington.

The Secret Service is spread too thin. That’s one of the findings of a congressional panel that looked into the attempted assassinations of Donald Trump while he was a presidential candidate. We talk with Colorado’s U.S. Rep. Jason Crow, who was the ranking Democrat on the task force. Then, investigating the turnover in RTD's leadership. Plus, books by Colorado authors to consider as holiday gifts. And a special project creates pillows that provide more than the usual comfort.
