Secret Service Director Who Previously Worked at Pepsi Faces Calls to Resign After Attempted Assassination of Trump
Breitbart ^ | July 13, 2024 | Elizabeth Weibel

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.

Message: Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle must resign in the aftermath of the embarrassing spectacle of the S/S’s reaction to the assassination attempt on President Donald Trump at a Butler, Pa rally on Saturday.

A presidential candidate was literally left on his own, with incompetent protection, abandoned to Cheatle’s loathsome doctrine of DEI.

Cheatle has been Biden’s nominee as the current director of the US Secret Service since Sept 2022, according to the agency’s website, and has worked for the S/S for 27 years.

Cheatle can never adequately explain why a roof top, with ladder, 150 yards from a shooting target, with an unfettered access to both the stage and the egress route to the target’s exit car, was left unguarded and uncovered.

The presence of three useless female agents expected to shield a 6’4” male from harm was unimagineable and embarrassing.

Cheatle must be relieved of her duties at once.

““So before being put in charge of protecting the PRESIDENT, she was guarding bags of Cheetos,” Tesla CEO and X owner Elon Musk wrote in a post”

That will leave a mark until her last dying breathe. GOOD!

I saw that. At a moment like that who gives a damn about a ball cap? And if you look the pictures, the female protecting Trump was so short that President Trump’s front side was totally exposed. That was a serious foul up in protection.

I saw his emergency podcast on Rumble. I suspect his show tomorrow will be a barnburner.

Indeed. Level of failure here is one for the history books. Unless the only failure is that Trump survived.
