Important announcement! Cheatle Resigns as Director of the Secret Service Following Attempt to Assassinate Trump.
Following intense questioning by lawmakers over her role in the failed attempt to assassinate President Trump at his campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, U.S. Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle formally resigned on Tuesday. 🤯
Politicians from both major parties exposed Cheatle’s lack of leadership and incapacity to adequately answer their questions during Monday’s questioning before the House Oversight Committee.
As she did at Monday’s congressional session, the USSS director emphasized time and again that she had no intention of leaving her position.
Jamie Raskin (D-MD) and House Judiciary Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (R-Ky.) wrote a joint letter after Monday’s meeting requesting Cheatle’s resignation because the committee did not have faith in her leadership abilities after hearing her testimony.
Now, this did not take very long at all.
