Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD), the top Democrat on the House Oversight Committee, joined the growing calls on Monday for Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle to resign following the massive security failure that occurred this month at a rally held by former President Donald Trump.
Raskin observed during his closing statement that Cheatle was unable to answer many questions during a contentious, hourslong committee hearing about the assassination attempt on Trump. In an unusual display of bipartisanship, Raskin said he would therefore join Chairman James Comer (R-KY) in asking Cheatle to step down.
