Breaking – Secret Service Director Kim Cheatle resigned on Tuesday morning. This is one day after her evasive and repulsive testimony before Congress and 10 days after President Trump was shot on stage at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.

Cheatle failed in her primary job – to protect the President of the United States.

On Monday, Cheatle took full responsibility for the attempted assassination of Donald Trump and the murder of Trump rally Corey Comperatore.

Members of Congress, including Speaker Johnson, called for Cheatle to resign.

Director Cheatle is expected to release a statement later this morning.

According to the Oversight Project, Cheatle announced her resignation through an email she sent to her workforce.

ABC has obtained the email she sent out to the workforce. Read below:

To the Men and Women of the U.S. Secret Service,

The Secret Service’s solemn mission is to protect our nation’s leaders and financial infrastructure. On July 13th, we fell short on that mission. The scrutiny over the last week has been intense and will continue to remain as our operational tempo increases. As your Director, I take full responsibility for the security lapse.

However, this incident does not define us.

We remain an organization based on integrity and staffed by individuals of exceptional dedication and talent. As l’ve stated, the Secret Service will move forward with our investigatory and protective mission in a steadfast manner. We do not retreat from challenge. However, I do not want my calls for resignation to be a distraction from the great work each and every one of you do towards our vital mission.

When I got the call asking if I would return to the Secret Service after my brief retirement, I did not hesitate. I love this agency, our mission, and the great men and women who sacrifice so much every day. I have, and will always, put the needs of this agency first.

In light of recent events, it is with a heavy heart that, I have made the difficult decision to step down as your Director.

When I assumed the role as your Director, I pledged to do so with honor and integrity.

These values have guided my entire career for 29 years. As many of you know, I served as a special agent for 27 years – securing events for FPOTUS Clinton, working as a supervisor on VP Cheney’s detail, leading

RTC, operating as the SAIC of ATL, supervising VP Biden’s detail, and finally overseeing the agency’s protective mission under the Trump Administration as AD-OPO.

As I stated in the hearing yesterday, all of you are worthy of trust and confidence. You deserve the nation’s support in carrying out our critical mission. One of my favorite things about this workforce is that the men and women are fiercely committed to our mission.

Thank you for all that you do, and will continue to do, for our great nation.

This is a developing story.

My bet is she's going to be on some state university as a campus police director. Twice the salary to keep her loyal and quiet for the leftists she works for in politics.

That's how Nancy Pelosi bought off the J6 Capitol Police Chief to stay silent.

One DEI loser gone.
Another 12,364,532 to go.
But it’s a start anyway.
Oops, forgot about the HO.

I am surprised.
She resisted so much.
I figured that if there was a coverup of some sort, they would need her to stay no matter what, because if someone else is allowed to come in who doesn’t toe the line, compromising information could get out.

as it’s now undeniable that FJB is a vegetable, which unelected deep-state bureaucrat will name the replacement?

Cheatle’s resignation should not deter us from determining the true significance
of the stunning S/S payroll numbers coming out of the Trump shooting debacle.

<><>Cheatle employed 7100 Secret Service Special agents and 2800 Task Force Officers, plus Uniformed Division officers, Technical Law Enforcement officers, and administrative, professional, and technical personnel on the tax-paid govt payroll. Complete with perks, privileges, bonuses, and pensions.

<><>Mayorkas’ Homeland Security Investigations division which apparently “lent” employees to Cheatle has over 9,800 Special Agents and tactical officers on the tax-paid govt payroll. Complete With perks privileges bonuses and pensions.

<><>The Executive Office of the President employs
1800 tax-paid individuals, some 584 in the WH alone.

Yet, Biden, Mayorkas and Cheatle denied Trump’s request for increased security.

The Biden regime sent $200,000,000,000 tax dollars to Ukraine to protect its people,
but could not find the tax dollars to beef up security for a presidential candidate.

Call Congress to express your outrage.
Call (202) 224-3121

Message: Payroll fraud is widespread and easy to pull off on the govt payroll.
There are several methodologies used, including
<><>submitting falsified time sheets,
<><>issuing unauthorized paychecks, healthcare, bonuses, benefits and overtime
<><>enrolling fictitious employees in pension plans.

The govt fraudster simply sets up fictitious employees and arranges for them to receive a salary,
benefits, overtime payments, bonuses and pensions, even though they do not perform any duties.

The fraudster then diverts the fraudulent payments into their bank account or that of an accomplice.


FR thread——Open The Book’s investigation revealed budget discrepancies and a lack of transparency from VP Kamala Harris’ office. When OTB filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request for Harris’ staff payroll in September 2021, a spokesman reportedly declined the request and claimed the vice president’s office was not subject to FOIA.

When OTB replied with a request for any transparency Harris’ office could provide, the spokesman said Harris did “not have any information to share at this time.”

The VP’s rejection makes her the least transparent elected office holder in the country. Citizens ought to be concerned that the person next in line for the presidency is so unwilling to disclose how she spends tax dollars.

OTB’s investigation also revealed an over $2 million discrepancy in Harris’ allocation of taxpayer dollars. OTB calculated that for VP Harris’s 28 staff listed in the Senate report, the 2021 salaries added up to $2,334,223. But the vice president’s office “got $5 million for 23 full time staff in 2021 and requested over $6 million for 27 full time staff in 2022.

Harris’ office reportedly refused to answer any questions from OTB regarding this inconsistency. OTB said Harris’ office is a “revolving door” where there’s a perpetual staff exodus’ of key aides ‘heading for the exits.......that might correspond to the $2million discrepancy in her payroll.

Bet a buck she keeps her security clearance. And the investigation finds no others at fault.

So she will get a high-paying consultancy with security clearance, the whole nine yards.

Pathetic.

Found dangling from beam in office was the only “honorable” way to dodge the “stand down” accusations. Mind, had the HilaryHag been the Byatch who hired this abomination that is the way she would have “resigned”. The fake doctor is a poor imitation.

I searched using the title, is the thread you reference from the same source (Gateway Pundit)? I couldn’t find one, only a thread from a Chicago TV station.

It is okay, as far as I know, to post the same subject if it originates from different sources.

What does she know? Whom is she protecting? Is Cheatle afraid of telling what she knows?

She’s going to need a security detail for herself. Deep State doesn’t play.
