Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle Should Be Cleaning Out Her Desk

Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle Should Be Cleaning Out Her Desk

Of all the points made by Donald Trump during his June debate with Biden, the best was when he hammered the mumbling geriatric for his deadly 2021 Afghanistan withdrawal.

"No general got fired for the most embarrassing moment in the history of our country, in Afghanistan," Trump said. "He doesn't fire people. He never fired people."

True.

Biden’s unwillingness to sack people only magnifies his terrible appointments and prolongs their ineptitude.

Take the cross-dressing, pup-playing, luggage stealing weirdo he put in charge of America’s nuclear waste.

Sam Brinton was finally placed ON LEAVE (but not fired) by the Department of Energy in November of 2022, when he was first arrested for stealing women’s luggage. It wasn’t until December 12, 2022 after he was arrested for a second luggage theft that the Department announced he was “no longer employed.”

So, unless you’re a nonbinary DEI hire who steals luggage and then prances around in stolen women’s clothes, your job in the Biden administration is safe. No matter how abysmal your performance.

Kimberly Cheatle

That’s good news for Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle.

On Saturday Donald Trump came within an inch of having his head blown off at a rally in Butler, PA. A firefighter, Corey Comperatore, was killed as he shielded his wife and daughter from the gunfire. Two others were injured.

All because Cheatle is not good at her job.

Her main goal when she was hired was to increase the percentage of female agents to 30%.

As if vaginas are what you look for in a good Secret Service agent.

You see, in the Biden administration you can suck your thumb while a former president gets his ear shot off, you can offer an implausble excuse for a massive security lapse but as long as you’re still playing by the DEI rulebook the president will simply shrug.

Then again, Biden has no idea who heads the Secret Service.

During an interview with NBC’s Lester Holt on Monday Biden was asked if he’d spoken with his Secret Service chief.

“I talked to him,” Biden mumbled.

Sheesh.

If we had a sentient president, Kimberly Cheatle would have spent Sunday cleaning out her desk.

Making matters worse, it was reported Tuesday that there was a credible threat against Trump from Iran in the past several weeks. Security was supposedly beefed up in response.

So let’s review: An Iranian plot to kill Trump resulted in enhanced security yet on Saturday a 20-year-old loser who wasn’t able to make his high school riflery team, was able to foil Cheatle’s crack security plan. The shooter was spotted by security 26 minutes before he shot off the top of Trump’s ear yet Secret Service waited until the former president was down to kill the assassin.

And no one bothered to get Trump to safety before the shooting started.

In an interview with ABC, Cheatle offered this ludicrous excuse.

That building in particular has a sloped roof at its highest point. And so, you know, there's a safety factor that would be considered there that we wouldn't want to put somebody up on a sloped roof.

“And so, you know, the decision was made to secure the building, from inside," she said.  

I thought Secret Service agents were athletic badasses, acting with alacrity and willing to take a bullet for a president. Yet the new agents are too delicate to balance on a sloped roof?

This defies credulity.

On top of that, Secret Service snipers were stationed on another sloped roof a couple of hundred yards away.

This gibberish from Cheatle looks like a CYA operation.

In Milwaukee last night, House Majority leader Mike Johnson vowed to get to the truth behind what  happened in Butler, PA.

Americans shouldn’t have to wait months to see Cheatle out of a job. If she had any sense of decency she’d resign.

And if Biden had an ounce of testosterone, he’d sack her.
