Watch live: Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle testifies on Trump shooting

Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle will testify Monday morning before the House Oversight and Accountability Committee as scrutiny of her leadership grows in the wake of the assassination attempt against former President Trump.

Oversight Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) and ranking member Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) issued a joint statement calling for her testimony before the committee.

GOP leaders such as House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) have called for her resignation, while Democrats have broadly questioned her handling of the agency.

The heading is scheduled to begin at 10 a.m. EDT.

Get ready for the lies to start flying 🙄

[wheelmanstan]

omg the dem "questions".. no wonder the country is a mess

[cheffy]

Why is it always made about the weapon and not the sick people who commit these crimes?

[cdavidlake]

At least she appreciates the questions.

[RonaldGundrum]

Kimberly write up your draft resignation letter today.

[jmerrow]

if she doesn't have to answer and they can't make her why is she there and why are they wasting my time watching this waste of time

[sheriedwards]

WE THE PEOPLE DEMAND YOUR RESIGNATION! She should be suspended in the meantime awaiting investigation results since she wants to be so arrogant and not give answers. This was a colossal failure! She is the director of the secret service for crying out loud! It doesn't take a rocket scientist to see what's going on here. The first thing she should have done was resigned from her position with an apology for completely failing at the job she was hired to do and then she ought to issue a personal apology to the family of the man who was killed and also to the two families of the gentleman who were injured not to mention Donald Trump and all of his family as well. Shame on her🎉 this is all her fault. Maybe if she wasn't in Aspen play in the snow she could do her job a little better but it's too late now we all want her out🎉

Mr. Connolly did access to baseball bats make that guys job harder?

[ronaldnelson]

They knew there was a threat why did they let him go on stage ?

[chipdiddy]

@2:25:43 “again I am not clear on the timeline”

She has stated multiple times that she doesn’t know the timeline yet. 10 days later! Either she is straight up lying or she is so incompetent that 10 days into the investigation she doesn’t have the most basic investigative knowledge tool completed which is a timeline. This is insane. If you google up gaslighting, they will now have this entire video for a definition.

Mrs. Norton needs to retire and go take a nap

[mishmashmedley]

she might as well had not shown up, for all the answers she FAILED to provide. She should be fired outright, she's too ignorant to understand that she should resign.

[deelemons]

How many weapons were left to be sold an used in Afghanistan 🤔

[Elioha-gtpu]

But she forgot the other shooter on the watertower.

[fredflintstone]

It was. All. Part of the plan if they couldn't beat him by any other methods remember to what did for years against him 🤔

[MrFrost-xhrf]

Dear Mr Raskin.. it’s not the ar-15s fault. Banning guns will not help. Passing laws making it harder and harder for honest citizens to own guns will not help, it will only hurt the ability to neutralize a threat before it’s too late.

Criminals don’t fallow laws. They’ll get the tools they need anyway possible.

Not everyone is super rich and can afford security detail 24-7 to protect them… who happens to carry guns..

July 13, Cheatle's encrypted message records: Cheatle: Our asset spotted a shooter. WH: Stand down.

[AndrewLuhring]

man after watching basically this whole thing it really seems like if they wanted her to answer questions, they'd have phrased them in terms of like "approximately when/how/what" because it really seems like the reason she's not answering has to do with not wanting to be inaccurate. like the line of questioning around 3:56:30 she answered almost without issue.

Can we trust our Prime Minister being sent to the US for next top meeting? Not sure at this point in time

[XY-otkp]

Ms Norton seems like a fine lady but for sure should have been retired for quite some time now.
