It's so shameful that she is trying to stay in her position after such a catastrophic failure. of course that is a complete reflection of the failure of his entire cabinet

[Robert-fixl]

If they knew there was a threat, why even let Trump on stage?

[BusterBronco]

Listening to this woman gives me zero confidence in her ability to lead the secret service

[zm]

She’s so arrogant DOESNT CARE .. a normal person would step down out of SHAME … but DEI hires don’t get hired on their merit, sound thinking, hard work

[DeniseRobinson-pu]

SHE IS LYING THROUGH HER TEETH. SHE'S

[FullFlushh]

You can tell she’s in WAY over her head!! Like a dang deer in headlights when the question was being asked… can almost guarantee she didn’t come up with that answer, either!

[noiseyfart]

And here we go again, I can't speak about an ongoing investigation 🐂💩

[chriswills]

She has no business in the role she is in

[dianahoward]

All I thoughts as I listened to her response was “What a load of crap!”

[albertstepulevage]

As the Donald would say, "your fired"!

[carolobrien]

She Has to DISGUSTING 😡We Don’t trust her, SHE FAILED We Don’t feel Safe !!!!

[CARL_]

Really is this the best excuse she got?

[scupperdog]

First question to Director Kimberly Cheatle, "Why did you fuck up so badly"?

[humangrowthhormone]

She should just resign already.
Every time she talks she just digs a deeper and deeper hole for herself.

[Donttalkbacktoome]

They will never answer any questions...traitors

[AutomatedPersonellUnit_]

You can't spell Agent Cheatle without spelling FJB

[kelliephoenix]

Always bullshit excuses! Incompetence or purposeful neglect, that's what happened that day!!!

[BaldFury]

A grown man would have accepted the consequences and resigned.

[poom]

'' I can't get into the specifics of how unqualified i am ''

[John-jlde]

The secrecy of my job prevents me from knowing what I'm doing.
