Congressional Rivalry: Mace Pushes for Cheatle's Impeachment, Ocasio-Cortez Urges Swift Report on Secret Service Failure

Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) have taken opposing stances regarding the timeline for a report on security breakdowns leading to a former president's assassination attempt and the impeachment of Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle.

On July 23, 2024, Mace filed an impeachment resolution against Cheatle in the House of Representatives for high crimes and misdemeanors. She accused Cheatle of dereliction of duty following her acknowledgment that the events of July 13, 2024, were the most significant operation failure in Secret Service history during a hearing on July 22.

Ocasio-Cortez expressed dissatisfaction with a projected 60-day timeline for an initial report on security breakdowns leading to the assassination attempt against former President Trump. She noted ongoing presidential campaigns and upcoming elections, stating that decisions need to be made before any report is finalized.

Mace's impeachment resolution forces the House to take up the measure within two legislative days. The House is in session until midday on Thursday.

Cheatle testified that an internal mission assurance investigation is targeted to be complete within 60 days, but she also stated that she has not waited for a report to take action. Additional investigations are ongoing by the Department of Justice and a bipartisan, independent panel.

It is unclear who decided that the warehouse roof where the gunman used as a sniper's perch should be outside the Secret Service's security perimeter for Trump's rally in Butler, Pa. Cheatle indicated that the agency preferred sterile rooftops and planning for overwatch from another location.

The Questions Secret Service Director, Kimberly Cheatle, Did Not Answer

The Name Of The NZ Prefix. I PWA NZI.P.Was Dropped. David A. Monday, 22 July 2024 17:37
  • Unique Points
    • Secret Service Director Kimberly A. Cheatle testified before the House Committee on Oversight and Reform on Monday.
    • Ms. Cheatle indicated that the Secret Service had left the warehouse rooftop unmanned, preferring 'sterile' rooftops and planning for 'overwatch' from another location.
    • It is unclear who decided that the warehouse roof should be outside the Secret Service’s security perimeter for Mr. Trump’s rally.
  • Accuracy
    • Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle testified that the internal mission assurance investigation is targeted to be complete within 60 days.
  • Deception (70%)
    The authors, David A. Fahrenthold and Adam Goldman, present information about Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle's testimony before the House Committee on Oversight and Reform regarding the security measures during President Trump's rally in Butler, PA. While they do not make any editorializing or pontification statements themselves, they do report Ms. Cheatle's evasive answers to certain questions with emotional manipulation by implying frustration from both Republicans and Democrats towards her lack of clear responses. They also use selective reporting by only presenting the questions that Ms. Cheatle did not answer and repeating those same questions throughout the article without providing any additional context or information that could clarify her reasons for not answering them.
    • Ms. Cheatle seemed to indicate that the Secret Service had left the rooftop unmanned on purpose, because, she said, the agency preferred ‘sterile’ – presumably meaning empty – rooftops.
    • Many times, Ms. Cheatle said she was waiting for reports to arrive to give her the requested information – nine days after the shooting.
