U.S. Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle is set to testify before the House Oversight Committee regarding significant security failures during an attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump at a rally on July 13. Cheatle, facing mounting pressure for her resignation, is expected to take full responsibility for the incident, acknowledging that the agency failed in its mission to protect national leaders. The hearing, which could last up to six hours, will address how such a breach of security occurred and what measures will be implemented to prevent future incidents. House Oversight Chairman James Comer criticized Cheatle's leadership and stated that the Secret Service's credibility is in question. In the aftermath of the shooting, details surrounding the shooter's motives remain limited. This event marks one of the most significant lapses for the Secret Service in recent history.
