Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle has faced calls to resign in the aftermath of an assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump at a rally on Saturday.
Cheatle, who previously worked as the senior director in Global Security for PepsiCo, has been the current director of the U.S. Secret Service since September 2022, according to the agency’s website. While working at PepsiCo, Cheatle reportedly was “responsible for directing and implementing security protocols for the company’s facilities in North America.”
The website also notes that before working at PepsiCo, Cheatle had served “for 27 years in the U.S. Secret Service”:
Before joining PepsiCo, she served with distinction for 27 years in the U.S. Secret Service, most recently as Assistant Director of the Office of Protective Operations. In this position, Ms. Cheatle manage a $133.5M budget and collaborated with ten operational divisions and the Technical Security Division to research, develop and deploy technologies that reduce risks to protectees, protected facilities, and protected events.
A witness told BBC News that he had seen a man with a rifle “bear-crawling” on top of the roof of a building close to the rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.
“I’m thinking to myself ‘Why is Trump still speaking, why have they not pulled him off the stage’… the next thing you know, five shots ring out,” the man told the outlet.
Minutes after taking the stage at the rally, gunshots rang out and Secret Service agents could be seen crowding around Trump, who was later seen with blood on his ear and the side of his face.
After being ushered away by the Secret Service, the former president later revealed that he had been “shot with a bullet that pierced the upper part” of his right ear.

If she had that much experience why does this entire event look like these guys were directing the security operation?
So according to the Democrat Party Media playbook, we will next here she is “getting death threats”.
Why did the SS let the guy shoot for 3 mins. Was there a chain of command holding up the shooter?
The entire chain of command for this op has to get the axe, too.
From the description, it sounds like she was basically a tech dept. manager.
Elon Musk said she was GUARDING THE CHEETOS!!
Those SS GIRLS were a TOTAL EMBARRASSMENT at their INEPTNESS!!!! PATHETIC HIRES!
Cheatel will NEVER BE FIRED!!!
Only 1 was part of PTrump’s permanent detail.
The rest were temps
She was a diversity hire.
The Sheriff of Snacks.
Something other than mere incompetence is going on here.
That' makes for a reasonable explanation: she got promoted beyond her competence.
Yeah that’s pretty much been established.
27 years in “personnel and records”, or IT, or some such thing ... retires and does a few years corporate security ... then made head of the whole agency while knowing nothing of operations.
Very stylish ...
Why? Maybe it’s because this is the same government who is sworn by oath to secure and protect our borders and are paid billions and billions to do so, yet we now have upwards of 35 million illegals in country.
For some odd reason, the “incompetence” always goes in the same direction. You’d think at some point they’d get something right just by accident.
But NOoOoOoOoOoooo ...
That NEVER happens.
