'You look incompetent': Secret Service director's testimony gets heated


Rep. Mike Turner, R-Ohio, and Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle engaged in a heated exchange this morning, with Turner calling Cheatle "incompetent" and demanding her termination.

"You look incompetent," remarked Turner, who stated that if Cheatle did not resign, "President Biden needs to fire you."

Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle told Congress on Monday the Trump assassination attempt was the agency's biggest 'failure' in decades.

She made the acknowledgement before the GOP-led House Oversight committee before which she has been called to testify about a sniper at the July 13 campaign rally for former President and GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump killing one and wounding several others.

The GOP-led House is holding three hearings this week on the matter.

House Oversight committee Chairman James Comer has called for Cheatle's resignation.
