ChainCatcher News, U.S. Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle stated that she will take full responsibility for the security lapses related to the attempted assassination of Trump."The solemn mission of the Secret Service is to protect the leaders of our nation," Cheatle will tell lawmakers on Monday. "On July 13, we failed to do that." On Monday, Cheatle will make the above remarks at a congressional hearing, where she will face the most intense questioning since the shooting incident. The hearing will last for several hours, with dozens of lawmakers expected to question her, including some calling for her resignation.
