Rep. Nancy Mace Grills Secret Service Director

News summary

During a heated House Oversight Committee hearing, Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) confronted Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle over the agency's failure to prevent an assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump. Mace aggressively questioned Cheatle, calling her 'full of s***' and accusing her of being dishonest while pressing for yes-or-no answers about the agency's missteps. Cheatle admitted to a 'colossal failure' in security during the incident at Trump's rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, but deferred many specifics to the FBI. The tense exchange led to calls for maintaining decorum from fellow committee members, highlighting bipartisan frustration over Cheatle's vague responses. Mace also criticized the apparent leaking of Cheatle's opening statement to the media before the hearing, questioning its political nature. The incident underscores ongoing scrutiny of the Secret Service's preparedness and accountability following a serious security breach.
