Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle faces mounting calls for her resignation after the attempted assassination of Donald Trump.
Numerous people have lamented Cheatle for the Secret Service’s weak security measures at Trump’s Pennsylvania rally.
The director has also been criticised for focusing on “Diversity, Equity and “inclusion” policies.
Cheatle has made a goal that the Secret Service will have 30 per cent female recruits by 2030 and have “diverse candidates”.
US President Joe Biden appointed Cheatle to the agency’s top post in 2022, stating she was “the best choice to lead the agency”.
Former FBI Assistant Director Chris Swecker spoke to Fox News about the incident and slammed the Secret Service’s efforts.
“It was a total security breakdown from start to finish. From the total security plan for the rally to the reaction once the shots rang out,” he said.
