    She testified to nothing other than keeping her job.

    Breaking: Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle won’t say if Thomas Crooks acted alone
  • @dtaylor939
    She's not helping at all.. I think she was in on it
  • Just when it initially sounded like Raskins was going to make sense, he turned it into an idiotic anti-gun rant
  • @tmapes1989
    WHY are they thanking her for answering NOTHING??? JAIL, FIRE, and no pension!!!
  • @JamesBoren
    I believe from a total security stand point that there were issues that Ms. Cheatle felt she could not disclose. However saving her job was probably priority #1 .....
  • @kcarnes6005
    Of course Raskin has to use this as another attempt to mess with the 2nd Amendment

    What happens when you check a box on your diversity list instead of hiring the best and brightest candidate? You get a fool for a figurehead who has no ability to lead. She didn't answer questions for two reasons: first, because she had no satisfactory answer to explain her failure; and second, because she was trying to stonewall in hopes of keeping her DEI job.

    I knew it. I KNEW Jamie Raskin couldn’t pass up an opportunity.

    The democrats made everything about guns! The black woman had to bring up Medgar Evans who was shot sixty some years ago! The only one, Nancy Mace, who was real and told the director she was full of it! The director didn't know this and didn't know that! Well we know why she got the job, friend and another Didn't Earn It!
