Following an assassination attempt on Donald Trump during a rally in Pennsylvania, bipartisan calls have emerged for Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle to resign. During a House Oversight Committee hearing, Cheatle was questioned about the agency's security preparations and faced criticism for significant lapses that allowed the shooter to approach. Lawmakers, including Reps. James Comer and Jamie Raskin, highlighted the need for accountability, stating that the incident represents 'the most significant operational failure of the Secret Service in decades.' Cheatle acknowledged the failures but defended her leadership, insisting she is the best person for the job. Meanwhile, a resolution has been introduced by Rep. Nick Langworthy demanding her immediate termination, emphasizing the need for transparency and competence in protecting national leaders. Notably, both Democratic and Republican lawmakers, including Arizona representatives, have voiced their discontent and called for her resignation.
