The Department of Homeland Security has opened an investigation after the Secret Service catastrophically failed to protect former President Donald Trump at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania last weekend. Trump narrowly escaped death after a bullet went through his ear while he was speaking at a lectern. The shooter was positioned on an unsecured roof just 140 yards away from the stage. The DHS Inspector General has also opened an investigation.

Republicans and Democrats on Capitol Hill have also launched separate investigations and have called on Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle to testify on Monday, July 22.

According to House Speaker Mike Johnson, DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas is attempting to block Cheatle from testifying. Johnson called on Cheatle to resign during an interview with Fox News Wednesday morning.

During remarks at the RNC convention in Milwaukee Tuesday night, Johnson vowed to get to the bottom of what happened.

Nothing to see here. Totally normal behavior from a regime that definitely didn’t do anything wrong.

Curious how a Democrats Government employee can defy Congress like this unscathed but a private citizen Steve Bannon is in jail for the same thing?

DHS, as evidenced by Mr. Open Borders Mayorkas and its vast censorship apparatus - has become completely bloated, political - and dangerous to the Republic.

Congress has that power, but they refuse to exercise it.

And they can't seem to impeach Mayorkis, sheesh.

Every prick that voted against the impeachment should be called out and blamed for this attempt by Mayorkas to shield mary-sue from testifying.

Most transparent administration evarrr...

I thought they already issued a subpoena, what are they waiting for.

[pepsi_junkie]

Let me take you back to 1964. Would the head of a government agency charged with protecting the President get away with refusing to testify on the basis that they cannot common on an active investigation that they are conducting on themselves?

I know taking accoutability is like garlic to a vampire in DC and I know that seeking accountability is as taboo as incest to congressfolk, but come on, some things are bigger than the normal BS kabuki dance where congress pretends to care and witnesses pretend to have a legit reason they are forced to refuse to answer questions.

Yes your GOP will certainly send strongly worded letters! That should do the trick!!
